We had a really good time.

Don’t go here if you like more than 2 songs. 100 bucks out the window
the venue itself feels very uncomfortable and unattractive. the interior is far from cozy, and the restrooms are especially bad — they look like something from a very cheap nightclub. it honestly feels like they are not cleaned properly at all.
the most ridiculous thing about this karaoke bar is that you can’t connect your own phone. instead, there’s some outdated song catalog with numbers. it felt like i stepped into a completely non-modern world, as if karaoke had just been invented yesterday. it’s extremely inconvenient and honestly irritating.
however, the worst part of this place is the service. i will never come back. the male administrator deserves to be fired. i felt like a homeless person who came in just to warm up, not like a paying customer.
the staff is absolutely awful — it really doesn’t get any worse than this.
do not recommend.

First time coming here, we were greeted politely at first but unfortunately there was no brief explanation on how to use the karaoke. We lost time trying to figure it out and when we asked for help the employee was struggling aswell? By the time we started we already lost 5-10 mins of our time when we only had an hour. The workers didn’t seem as happy to see us although we see a lot of potential, just we hope that they work on their service more.

The best time in YYC, with the best hosts, David and Lee make sure you won’t forget your time here!
This was my first time here. I came for a birthday party for my best friend. This was one of the most epic and awesome experiences I have ever had. It's almost like your in your own world jamming out totally privately, even though the loud noise still travels outside the rooms.
Each crazy epic sing along lasts for about 2-4minutes. Use the book and type in codes for which song you want. Tons of choices. You can also type the name of the artist or the name of the song manually into the remote and search that way. Tons of options on song selection. No issues with the subtitles at all.
Super cool experience because the main room light goes dark and disco light goes off when you start a song. And it turns off when you end. Creating a super fun atmosphere once you get going. There is a drink and a good money, any sharables are always a good pick.the fruity cocktail vase slushy was great, we chose passionfruit flavour and it was excellent. We also ordered the loaded waffle fries and the squid rings. Both tasted great inside while we were jamming out.
We showed up tonight for an 8-11pm appointment and we used up all 3hours, they flew by, we were a party of 3 by the end of it. Started with 5 people. We were offered a 15 minute extension at the end of our time, then we decided to add on another hour since we were having a blast. No problems super chill and easy person at the front desk to deal with.
We are very happy with our experience. I will be back with more friends.

Awesome bar, great night out with friends! They have lots of private rooms, friendly staff and a well maintained/clean place

Egregiously expensive. Other places will give the room for free if everyone spends more than $50 on food and drink. We spent $100 for food/drink each, and they still added ANOTHER $240 to our collective bill for the room. No thanks. Won't be back.
Edit: Thanks to the owner's reply, I will be changing my review to 1 star. I am aware of differing policies, which is why other karaokes will be getting our business 👍. We were still charged $80/h for a small room of 6 people, NOT 15, so you made yourself a liar. No price transparency before booking. Save yourself the hassle and go elsewhere.

The lady worked on Wed night (July 24th) is super rude, doesnt know how to talk to people.
I believe her name is emily she was rude from the begining and when I asked her if I can get a couple mintues extra time she said "No I need to charge" when all rooms were empty and I was the ONLY guest there.
I've been here so many times since its walking distance from my place and korean people here were always nice and gave me extra time, I didn't have to ask for it. Getting extra time is a thing in korean karaoke!
I was so mad at her attitude I just left before the time was over.

I genuinely hate giving bad reviews, but every bad review you see about overcharging (ALMOST in my case) and miscommunication is true. I wish to give you guys the benefit of the doubt, but I need to share the mental breakdown I nearly had with this incident. I’m sure you all are great people and we all have horrible days where we make mistakes but there NEEDS to be better communication because this simply CANNOT happen again.I reserved for 3 people over the phone. I get there with my two friends and I say I have a reservation for 3 people along with my name (even with my 3 fingers up). Guy brings me to the room and all 3 of us are surprised like why is this a huge room that could house all the spider-people from Into The Spider-Verse LOL? I obviously leave to talk to him about it why the room is so big when I just reserved for 3 people. He tells me I reserved for 20-24 people. HUH? I emphasize I called 30 minutes ago and said 3 people… there’s a chance the guy on the phone got it wrong because he couldn’t even spell my name right 5 times. He tells me I can’t change the room and I’m like… um ok I’ll just go then. He tells me I still have to pay for the room so I ask how much it is. Imagine my jaw dropping when I see that he’s trying to get me to front a room I never requested for $240+? I get it, he assumed I was the person who did request it.Thankfully the actual big group came in and I’m not sure how you get Britney out of my 2 letter name. He realized his mistake and apologized a couple times. The same guy asked me how they would get 20-24 out of 3… I don’t know, you tell me how you get Britney from my name!I wasn’t given anything else other than the apology. It was a wild and disheartening first experience to say the least. Who knows if the big group never came and what could’ve transpired. That being said, please… do communicate with your customers better and ensure you have the right person. This might just be an isolated experience, but that could’ve had serious consequences that both the business and customer do not need to experience.
