Bliss Karaoke Lounge is an unexpected gem in our search for a great karaoke spot in Hawaii. Initially skeptical about the per-song charge, my first visit left me pleasantly surprised. The inviting ambiance and attention to detail in the decor immediately captured my attention. On my second visit, celebrating a friend's birthday, the experience exceeded my expectations. The bartenders, especially Chrystan and her coworker, were absolutely amazing, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the night. And let's talk about the food - their wings are crispy and flavorful, and the onion rings are my absolute favorite. Despite my initial reservations, Bliss Lounge has become my karaoke home in Hawaii. As the Queen Bey wisely says, 'SING!' - and Bliss provides the perfect stage for it.

Wings were crispy and tasty, watermelon soju was on the thicker side with lots of real fruit. Great ambience and vibe here. Host was friendly and attentive.

Went here last night for my birthday. It was a weekday so it wasn't busy but we still decided to go in the room. It was huge and comfy. Small kine hot but get a/c. Songs are $2 each but still we only spent maybe 225+tip to eat, get drunk & sing which is amazing for 4 people. Food was really good, make sure you get there before 11 to order cuz the kitchen closes around that time. We just ordered choke before they closed and the food lasted us all night. The sign on the door says no public bathroom but I seen some by the bar, idk if it's open for customer use tho. Staff was really friendly too. Definitely going to go again :)

Karaoke time in Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii...We all got a chance to try a place that's new to us! Bliss Lounge on Dillingham Boulevard was a pleasant change of atmosphere!The clean, convenient restrooms and free shared parking lot (with Soul Chicken, Hana Tea, Lox of Bagels, and Yohei Sushi) were much appreciated!We decided to sit in the private room (instead of the lounge with the stage). The friendly female worker thought that we could make the $100 room minimum easily. Yes!We ordered the Chicken Combo (honey Chicken, French Fries, shoyu chicken, and mandoo); pan-seared ribeye (with mushrooms and onions), three diet Cokes, and a pitcher of fresh strawberry soju. Everything was delicious!Mr. Park helped us with the sound system. He was polite and patient with our questions. He also encouraged us to return on a weekday when soju is half off! LOL!Note: songs were $2 each. Feed the bills into the machine. $20 bills are acceptable.

Karaoke, Friends and Chicken...our own KFC!Gathering at Bliss Lounge is the base behind Soul...literally as the storefront for Soul Chicken where you can find amazing fried chicken is made in Bliss Lounge which makes this a unique find.Along with Nadine, Peter and a friend arrived in the evening on a Saturday night and was surprised how empty it was a very spacious place with lots of bar top tables, a few booths and even a stage the vibe is a dark bar dive scene but was greeted by a sweet lady as I arrived a bit early.She showed me their private karaoke room in the back and it was nice and big enough to hold 8 adults with comfortable a/c light dimmer though an annoying disco ball that we couldn't figure out how to turn off lol! Yes we decided on the private room and it's free with minimum $100 food and drink purchase and songs are $2 each and make sure to ask for the English remote though with the device way up top entering songs was the real struggle of the night.We ordered Boneless Chicken Combo with Mandoo and Fries, Pan-seared ribeye Steak, and I had to get some Homemade real Fruit Soju (Strawberry) and this carnivore feast was delicious so bring your tribe and come hungry and the time limit for $100 feast in the private room is about 2hrs...depends on how busy they are we were told. They were very polite but just felt a bit condescending many times over the period we were there.

We had the chicken plate - simply delicious. When I eat fried chicken, I love fried chicken. And good fried chicken to me is crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside, flavorful, and just plain satisfying. These were those chicken wings. And don't get me started on the fries. These fries were crispy and delicious. I could have eaten a whole basket by myself...Service was amazing as well. We were checked on several times throughout the meal. Each time with either recommendations; adding ice to my glass, or just her recommendations...It was perfect. She seemed to know when there was a lull in conversation so would come by to check on us and knew when we were talking to stay away. I can't wait to go back to try the other items on the menu as well. It's a Karaoke lounge - though no one chose to sing tonight. Very nice place to go for a bite. Highly recommend checking it out. While I didn't see the steak on the menu, told they have a rib eye that's amazing. Next time I'll try to take photo's, as this time, I dug in with gusto.

Absolutely love this place. What a hidden gem. I think they have some of the best chicken I have tasted on this island. I definitely love their spicy sauce. The atmosphere is calm and unique and the service is superior to anything I've experienced since moving here. They're so nice and will go above and beyond for you. Plus they have a interesting assortment of drinks. You definitely have to try if you're in the area

My wife and I had a great afternoon here. The bartender was friendly and provided great service. No matter how much we bombed whatever song we sang, she always clapped for us and had a smile on her face ?. The sound system is insane for karaoke! Probably the best audio you'll encounter at a karaoke bar on the island. They have a stage if you really want to live out your rock star dreams. The homemade strawberry soju was killaz, but don't think it had much alcohol. That was a good thing for us because it was early and we still had things to do ?. Food was great as well. We had an awesome time and will definitely be back.
This place is associated with Soul Chicken. Their fried chicken comes from here. Auntie and I stopped by Soul Chicken for lunch one day. They had a few tables on the outside. The really nice cashier asked if we wanted to sit inside in the A/C instead. We said ok.We were the first customers in there that day so she just turned on the A/C. Two other tables soon followed. It was nice on the inside and the booths were comfortable. They also have karaoke if you like to sing. This place must be busy at night. I went to wash my hands in the bathroom after eating the chicken. I was surprised at how clean it was.

Incredible energy! Perfect room, fast drinks, and everyone loved getting in on the karaoke.

The food brings me back to Korea, when we would have chicken and beer several hours after dinner. We took it to go, but maybe next time we'll stay to sing a song.Note:. Soul Chicken is inside Bliss Lounge after hours. So even if Soul Chicken is closed, u can still go inside the Karaoke bar.

We were looking for bliss chicken after buying mochi at a place nearby and was surprised it was a karaoke bar. Come to find out it's all the same owner and they serve the same chicken, but here you can get stronger drinks and the combo is a better deal.A very pleasant, helpful and funny woman greeted us and made recommendations, which we went with and were very happy. She suggested the combo for $39 and the strawberry soju, both great recommendations. Also told us all Korean drinks, such as the soju juice we paid $24 are half off Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Definitely plan to come back then.It's karaoke/bar and interesting at about 1:30 pm, but liked the music.
