My husband and I stayed in Portland recently and picked Dante's for their Saturday Night show - Subterranean Caberet. There was a Seattle group playing, and we found both the music and show to be very entertaining! It was my birthday and we were so lucky to wander in! The musicians, dancers, MC, and crowd were all upbeat and the atmosphere was friendly and in party mode. There was a very diverse crowd - all ages and style of dress from jeans and sweaters to short black dresses and heels. No baseball caps. Two drinks were 11.75 plus tip - pretty typical. I have two cons that I want to share with readers. The first is that the service at the large bar was horrible. I thought my husband was exaggerating about her rudeness, so I attempted to order the next round with no luck. She wasn't busy, just leaning and chatting. Order from the small bar! Second, we decided to stay for the second show and all patrons staying were told to leave their coats at the tables (or lose your table) and line up OUTSIDE to pay again!!! I wasn't so much put off by having to pay $6 for the second show, but I was freezing without my coat! I have never seen a business do that. A good way to have customers change their minds about staying...
