when my bf and i went there the other week there were people dressed up in many different ways...i was wearing jeans, a dressy sweater, and heels. he wore a short sleeved polo and jeans. some girls were wearing dressy halter tops and slacks or skirts...some were wearing fun dresses (but nothing fancy). i don't think i saw a single man wearing a tie there...mainly just collared shirts or a nice sweater with khakis or nice jeans (nothing hole-y). one man was even wearing a baseball cap.

Porter's isn't fancy, it's pretentious. Dress how you want and try not to confuse the two. 2/14/2006 10:53:15 AM |

The only way to overdress is to walk into the Jackpot with a tux on. Otherwise, you just look better than everyone else.

Porters is great. It's the sort of place where you can be comfortable in everything from a rugby and jeans to a suit and tie. 2/14/2006 11:08:26 AM |

wear a blazer
you're old and mature enough now such that wearing a blazer is appropriate for most situations--and where its seemingy not appropriate, no big deal.
its always better to be slightly overdressed than slightly underdressed. always.

wear whatever at porter's. but do eat the tempura green beans (appetizer) and the blue-cheese mac and cheese (side dish). the lamb is pretty good too. 2/14/2006 6:39:48 PM |

I'd feel a little out of place in a t-shirt, but anything beyond that and you're good. Jeans no problem.
But, since you've apparently already gone, you know that now. 2/14/2006 11:45:39 PM |

Shit, I wore a blazer to the saucer on monday.
a blazer doesn't necessarily mean you're that dressed up.
Also, Jay Davis carded me when I got there. 2/15/2006 9:43:14 AM |
