Extremely poor service from the bouncer. Out for a 25th birthday celebration, my entire group of friends started our night at Port 507. We were immediately disappointed.

Took for ever to get money on machines.. 1 bartender.. and it was packed.. a person was smoking in the back by the pool table. And no one seamed to care. A customer had their dog in the bar, a rather big one laying right by the front door so everyone that entered would meet the animal first..I love dogs.. just not in a packed bar.. imagine the lawsuit if someone accidentally tripped on it and the dog reacted...
