Jazz at the Grill

Broadway Grill continues to be a beacon of live jazz in B'game.  The Monday night jam at Max's Opera on the Bayfront hosted by KCSM DJ Chris Cortes is good too, but the Grill has much better food and ambiance.  Wednesday night saw recent Grammy winner Jamie Davis bring a swinging quartet to the restaurant.  That swelled to a sextet after another tenor sax player and trumpeter sat in for the second set and other notable guests took a turns at bass and guitar.

Davis is the vocalist for the Count Basie Orchestra which just won a Best Large Jazz Ensemble Grammy last month for their latest album.  Great stuff and you can't complain about the (non-existent) cover charge.  Check out the Grill's music calendar here.  Music is generally happening three nights a week or more.

    The Broadway Grill is in the news today regarding the prior proprietor, Nick Bovis, and his incarceration. From the SF Chronicle:
    Nick Bovis, Lefty O’Doul’s owner imprisoned after S.F. corruption scandal, asks for early release
    A former San Francisco restaurateur sentenced to nine months in prison last year for his role in the blistering corruption scandal that engulfed City Hall asked to be released early due to health issues, according to a federal court filing.

    In addition to the shenanigans up in EssEff that drew the attention of the Feds, we also learn today that
    —————————
    He also pleaded guilty to fraud related to a 2018 fire that damaged his restaurant Broadway Grill, after which he filed fraudulent claims for $85,000 in payroll expenses even though he wasn’t still paying his employees.

    The food at the current version of the B’way Grill is excellent and there is still music 3-4 nights a week. See ya there.
