If you want to get brutally assaulted by their own degenerate bouncers then go visit the Penthouse. My brother was there the evening of august 11th, 2011 and He was brutally assaulted Thursday late night at Penthouse club in Port Richmond by the bouncerh employed there. Please spread the word to anyone you know to never go to this establishment. Their own degenerate employees brutally assault their paying patrons right out front of their door on their "red carpet" for no reason & there are witnesses to prove it. This is not the first time this has happened here and if something doesn't get done it will not be the last. They have assaulted people before out front & they drag them to the side of their building and leave them for dead. To make it worse, a waitress was asked if this is how they always treat their patrons and she answered yup pretty much all of the time. So if you want to get brutally beaten up with brass knuckles at that, go to Penthouse club. They just about killed my brother so do not let anyone you know ever go there.

Do not support this place. My boyfriend & a friend of his were in the club the night of august 11th. They sat at the bar all night, did not bother any of the girls working or any patrons. After paying their tab & leaving they were brutally beaten at the front door by 6 bouncers. My boyfriend was attacked from behind by a Hispanic bouncer that cracked him in the back of the skull causing him to be ...knocked unconscious. His friend was held down while these pieces of crap low-lifes that work there proceeded to kick & beat my boyfriend so badly that he was put in the hospital. He has contusions all over his body that are shaped like boots & knuckles, he needed 7 staples in his head & he also had bleeding on his brain which is very serious & potentially fatal. Thank god he's doing ok but 2 witnesses have come forward on their own and called 911 saying they were in the club & saw 2 men that had been there for a few hours minding their own business & then were brutally beaten by all bouncers (no patrons) for absolutely no reason. After they beat him they tried to drag him to the side of the building where patrons cannot see to do god knows what else to him. Thankfully his friend was able to free himself
& got him to safely. We have now learned that thus is not the 1st incident like this where someone was attacked by penthouse employees & beaten half to death for no reason. This being said. Only go here if you want to be beaten within an inch of your life for no reason at all.

true or not i don't know but i used to work as a bouncer in a regular club. for the most part we only went as far as we had to to end problems and never attacked someone for no reason although every once in awhile we'd have a new hire that liked to rough people up so i do know that such things happen.
Lawsuit ?
Community activist ?
And I'm sure some local TV station would absolutely love to do a live report if all of the above were true.

Never had or heard of any problems with the bouncers in Detroit.
Smells like horseshit to me. I am voting for one of the following: (1) this never happened; (2) it did happen but the "innocent victims" in this story were not quite so innocent; or (3) something happened, but not quite as severe as reported and there was provocation involved.
