Exodos Rooftop — Restaurant in Detroit

Went for a private party on Thursday, August 20, 2015. It was a lot of fun. The staff was wonderful and courteous....until...later in the evening when the music changed and a younger crowd started coming in. We were trying to leave and had to push past the incoming guests. Once outside we realized a member of our party was still inside and we waited for several minutes for him. I went to the door when I saw him standing in the doorway but accidentally knocked over the bouncer's drink that was sitting on the ledge of a door. The bouncer told me to watch out for his drink but I had already knocked it over. The bouncer had a shouting fit. He was overbearing and very close to my face as he was yelling at me. I heard the F bomb several times. I felt like I was being attacked so I started shouting back at him that I was F*&(^%$ sorry. My husband decided to come between us as the shouting got louder and louder. I am a 47 year old respectable woman who came to Exodus for a private party. I do not drink alcohol so therefore I was not drunk. I have never been treated in such a manner before. I am not a drug addict, a drunk, a tramp or trash. Just a mom with a respectable career who came for a party. While I understand that bouncers have to deal with drunk trash on a regular basis there was no justification for the treatment I received over a spilled drink, that, by-the-way was sitting on a narrow ledge. Shameful. I will NEVER go back to downtown Detroit for a party unless it's on the Ovation or Infinity. I am heartbroken as I just went on national television and talked about how much I loved Detroit. Ironic, since the party was for me and was filmed as part of a promotion. The bouncer was not Shawn...he was...

I've been going to exodus for years. I've promoted parties there, had a hs reunion there, etc etc. . .never not once have I ever been so disrespected so blatantly on a day that didn't even matter. Spent majority of the afternoon there celebrating a bday with friends only to find out they no longer offer food. After a couple friends left and came back from getting food I and 2 young ladies go down and walk to the next restaurant over to grab pizza right quick. Once in line for pizza the bouncer at the door says that we have to pay 20 to get back in. Why didn't you say that while I was walking out. I wouldn't have left. He then proceeds to tell me the owner saw me leave saw what I had on, he wants to attract a whiter crowd and that he told him to charge me 20. It was 90 degrees, I had on shorts and designer tee. I confronted the owner and his only excuse was he can change the the door whenever he wants. (It was 719 pm, I had been there since 3) my group had spent well over a few hundred dollars and I the owner eventually let me in once I started to call him out on his bull. Never again will I goto that establishment and I encourage anybody else to stay away. Oh here's the bouncer that fed into the BS after the fact (not the real one who told me the truth the one who tried to enforce the bs the...

If I could give them a negative star I would! I never do this, and have never written a review, but I just had to share my horrible experience with everyone! Last night we made a reservation at Exodos Rooftop for a birthday party of 30+ people. The owner (Yani) and his thugs (bouncers) were the rudest most disrespectful people I have ever encountered! They would not let us in with reservations, yelled and cussed at us. They told us that we can't get in because some people had sneakers on, but we saw others go in with no problem wearing sneakers. Yani then says you can get in but you're minimum just went up and I need $$$. When we got in some of us were not able to get to our booth because they didn't give us enough wristbands, the bouncer accepted a bribe $$$ to let us into an area in which we've already paid for! This place needs to be shut down! The owner needs to be taught good business manners. The people in charge of the reservations (Melissa) do not stand by their word or can care less to accommodate you. The bouncers were out of line as far as aggression. I watched as they were assaulting people for no reason on another level of assault. I couldn't believe the aggressiveness. Last time I'll ever give them my business, and you...
