Please Read Before you go to LEVEL TWO BAR AND ROOFTOP: Saturday evening I was simply standing in line, at Level 2 Bar with some of my friends who have also been to bars all over the world, when we witnessed this: one particular bouncer who decided tonight was his night to shine and unleash his inner anger or demons on various victims one by one. I watched as he chose innocent people in line, or leaving the bar one by one to push around, punch, choke out or pick a fight with for absolutely no cause or reason! I watched him throw an innocent young man to the ground who simply walked by at the wrong time. I witnessed him yelling and harassing young women who simply were out to have a good time with their friends, causing no harm whatsoever. I watched him, along with two other "power trip bouncers" push someone down the stairs only to further assault him when he was in absolutely no wrong and simply was trying to explain something. They further proceeded to punch and knock someone into a garbage can who was completely helpless and not looking for any trouble or harm whatsoever. Then the WORST act of all I witnessed was with the gentlemen standing in front me. I had time to observe this man while in line and he was a courteous young man waiting the entire time in line. Once all of these despicable acts were observed, it left many of us in shock and frightened by these bouncers ready to go off on the most innocent people and just looking for their next innocent target to assault. The poor lad in front of me was unfortunately the next victim as he simply tried to speak up after watching an innocent man to be punched in the face and thrown the ground for NOTHING in front of him. When he said, "That guy was innocent and didn't do anything!" The bouncer turned around and pushed him to the ground, ripped off his shirt and choked him to the ground. This horrified so many people and my group of friends and I could not believe what we were witnessing. This was the most discrimination, unjustified, harassment and assaults I have ever seen in only 40 minutes of being in line!! Who knows what else happened that evening and so many others. This poor guy was simply minding his business all night in line and for simply speaking up in the most courteous way for another stranger who was assaulted, was beat down and left shirtless and injured. I advise anyone and eveyone to PUT THIS BAR and these BOUNCERS out of business for their despicable, hateful, wrongful acts this evening that left me horrified as well as so many others. These bouncers do not deserve to be working or get away with this and together people need to speak up to take a stand for this! They need to be put away for their acts! I urge everyone to pass this along and send this to anyone you know who has also been victimized by these bouncers. Spread the word and put a...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreTo whom it may concern. I went to the place last night with a party of 10, and I'd like to address a little situation that happened, which really concern me because I'm very confident it's not the first time and that i was not the only one of the night that noticed. Just rolling in me and my group go through the bouncers and I happened to hold myself back for 1 min to tie my shoes. As I'm walking in I'm told there's a $10 which is nothing, thus I'm carrying no cash and waived at one of my pals to come down to resolve this as my friend is walking down, lady cashing in, yells at the bouncers to get me kicked out since she though I wasn't going in, in seconds I'm LITERALLY kicked out as a dog by the two so called gentlemen at the door (bouncers) I not only get kicked out but the little white chubby bouncer is trying to articulate how if I'm not paying to go get lost and stop holding the line back, and so is the big brown bouncer next to him. Long story short, my friend got me paid, I ended up closing a $700+ USD tap in about 2 hours and had a great conversation with the gentleman at the restroom (Raymond) which you can clearly tell is a man of principles and very explicit manners. All I'm going to say is to the management is that, YOUR bouncer are the front line of your business, and ME as a business owner know that the impression the they project is a direct reflection of their higher ups. So, please I invite you to review your staff and reflect upon the fact that people are the ones that make up your business and when people that work very hard for their money, like I'm sure everyone in your team does and so is everyone that chooses to spend it in your place of business the least you can do for them is show them a little hint of respect. Review, assess and correct; and hopefully you might even get more business out of a good training session. Bar on and good luck trying to...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWent here last night to celebrate my brother's birthday. While waiting in line we saw bouncers taking hundreds of dollars from people to get into the bar, making them take off their hats and then keeping them, and taking the guest list and physically shoving in a girl's face. Also while waiting in line, saw three young guys being shoved and thrown down the stairs by an over aggressive bouncer with excessive force. My friend asked the bouncer to ease up to which he responded by grabbing and tearing off his shirt and proceeded to put him in a choke hold. He stopped after seeing me video taping him. The bouncers are supposed to be there to maintain control, yet they are the thugs that are causing all of the trouble by over asserting their "power" on men and women who are smaller than them and are of no threat to anyone. It's no coincidence that you only see this happening to younger guys and women. Level 2, rather than employing a bunch of thugs with an animal like mentality, do yourselves a favor and hire some people with a bit of training and rational thinking, who better represent your business. If you are looking to have a good time DO NOT GO TO LEVEL 2 in downtown Detroit. They are infamous for having over aggressive bouncers who take advantage of their patrons by taking their belongings, man-handling the men AND WOMAN waiting in line taking hundreds of dollars from people just to cut the lines. What's worse is that the business owners stand by these barbaric employees. DO NOT GIVE YOUR BUSINESS TO LEVEL 2. You are better off going next...
