Croce's (Permanently Closed)
802 Fifth Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101
Croce's is out — of downtown — and in, to Bankers Hill. Like Café Bassam before it, the beloved live music icon had to abandon downtown and retreat up the hill because it had been too successful. It sounds as though Croce's Park West (which opened in early January) will be pretty much the same, but the Gaslamp won't. A bit more life has just been sapped from it.
