The Red Room at The Grill
places / the red
room
Congress Street
Tucson, AZ
A section of the infamous Grill,
this small room is popular amongst local performers for the we're-playing-in-your-living-room
feel. You can see performers like Tom
Walbank, Cum & Go,
Topless Opry,
The Croutons, and
Satori at booth-length while partaking of Grill fare -- and the
outstanding beer list chalked on the board at the back. Appearances
by acerbic Grill maestro Matt make the whole thing that much stranger.
Add the east wall of mirrors and you're lost in red. And it's free
if you get Tater Tots.

Club denizens 411:
Incredibly, Red Room shows are free with a meal or
selection off the Grill menu. Get there early for the in-the-band seating.
Drinks and music:
See the Grill
for details.
Friendly words of advice:
Expect the possibility of a self-absorbed boothful
obliviously blocking your view all evening unless you get there
early for a popular show. Don't be shy about moving your seat. Matt
and crew will make sure you get your drinks.
Unique features:
Truly awesome beer list and conoisseurship. Would
that the wine selection were the same but hell, it's a diner.
Past lives:
In business continually since 1921 in various incarnations.
See the Grill for more.
Management:
Jim Howell books bands.
