SOME MORE DETAILS >>>
As mentioned last week, Brandon Escovedo, who has years of experience gained while managing Jazzbones, Station 56, Firecreek and, most recently, Big Wheel Steakhouse, officially became general manager at Tacoma's Gruv Nightclub and Lounge March 7. In Escovedo's hands, Gruv will undergo a major overhaul. The club's dining area and music room have merged and now have an unobstructed views of live bands and the dance floor. Pool tables and dart boards now occupy the former dining area, and Skee-Ball and a photo booth are pending.
The existing dining menu will change, morphing Gruv's feel into that of a seafood house, with locally sourced oysters, salmon and halibut. Escovedo's own savory crab cakes will be offered soon.
"Steaks, jerk chicken tacos and hand-molded burgers aren't going anywhere," Escovedo says.
With a chuckle Escovedo shares he's dubbed Gruv's late-night afterhours dining option the No-Doze Café. A $10 breakfast buffet of eggs, potatoes, sausage, biscuits and gravy and fruit is served Friday and Saturday (2 a.m. - 4 a.m.). A $5 cover includes a buffet for industry workers. Also, be sure to check out the à la carte menu with a seafood scramble, crab Benedict, non-breakfast items and more.
Gruv now offers a wide variety of entertainment, including local rock, hip-hop and R&B bands, college night with KUPS radio DJs, Top 40, dance music and spoken word.

Now, I love 6th Ave, Tacoma, and a 'major overhaul' as much as the next guy...but will this one stick? Their last major overhaul took longer than they've been open, it seems.

Be a club with food or be a restaurant. If you are going to be a club stay simple and offer fried food or tacos or something. I mean I love oysters but I don't think I would order them or salmon for that matter at a club.
