I went on Friday August 22nd to celebrate my sister birthday. We were so excited to do karaoke as this was our first time & we looked forward to. Upon our arrival we went straight to the dj to sign us up and he told us it would be 2 hour wait. So we were just gonna stick around get some drinks and chill for a while. Then like 1 hr passed and i decided to go and see how far the list was and the dj disregarded my presence as i waited patiently. After the song was over i told the dj i would like to sign up and sing a song in Spanish and he said “ we are only taking punk rock or pop rock songs” and i was like but its a karaoke spot and theres no event that specifies that it was going to be a rock themed night. A lady that works there approached me and said “well its the djs birthday and since hes working on his birthday he gets to choose what we play.” I was honestly shocked by that response and reaction from an employee. I responded with “well its not my fault he didnt request the day off & now hes making these rules” & the female employee answered once again and said “its his birthday so hes not taking request” i was honestly upset for the fact that we were looking forward for a fun exciting night. I decided to just walk away and go to the back patio and enjoy the rest of our time there, disregarding what had just occurred for the sake of my sisters birthday celebration. At around 10ish i decided to head out and guess what song was playing “eenie meenie” by justin Bieber. This was not a rock song and i feel like i was being discriminated based on my song choice. How is it that because its the djs birthday hes able to choose the genre of the night and not allow someone to choose the song they want to sing.

The bartender we had is not friendly or welcoming. We have been here many times. The same person has treated us in a way that we’ve felt berated, less than, and like we are nothing compared to the people behind us. Please reconsider your front of house staff.

Great local bar that happens to be gay. Reminds me of old neighborhood bars back East.

I went to the back bar and wanted to sit at a table, but there was water on the floor in the back. I noticed two tables were connected, so I shifted one slightly so I wouldn’t have to step in the dirty puddle or slip. Moments later, the bartender came up angrily and told me I wasn’t allowed to move the tables. I explained I was only doing that to avoid the puddle, but instead of addressing the actual issue, she was rude, aggressive, and disrespectful. The doorman at the entrance was also unfriendly. Staff should treat paying customers with respect — not hostility.
Updated Review (in response to owner):
I want to clarify what happened at the back bar. There was a puddle of dirty water on the floor, so I shifted one table slightly to avoid stepping in it. The bartender came up angrily, told me I wasn’t allowed to move it, and was extremely rude even after I explained why. The doorman at the entrance was also unfriendly.
For the record, I did not “rearrange” furniture or block exits — I only moved a table a few inches because of the puddle your staff never addressed. I chose the tables in the back for privacy, and no, there were not “plenty of other tables” available at the time.
Instead of acknowledging the puddle or how aggressively the bartender handled the situation, management keeps doubling down with excuses. The real issue here is not tables — it’s customer service and basic cleanliness.
Actions speak louder than words — respectful service and a clean space go a lot further than excuses.

We came here for karaoke night on a Friday. It was crowded but we were able to get our drinks fairly quick as there are two bar areas. We came in as a group and we were able to find spot for all of us to hang out. I loved the vibes as the guests were singing along. I got tater tots and fried pickles and they were tasty and reasonably priced. I would come back for karaoke night again.

Best bar in North Park. Great food, decently priced drinks, and it's a little queer. Ask for Traci.

Great for a night out - always hosting karaoke! More than that, food is always delicious as well. It gets pretty busy at night during karaoke but there are lots of seating options as well including a large space out back.
