The Music Room

Delicious food, kind staff, great atmosphere...and regular LIVE MUSIC!

Andrew Preissing

Tiny little room. Tough to find a seat and a really rough crowd. Not great for someone who is under retirement age. Also I felt like the server was really pressuring me to drink and shaming me if I didn’t. Always made me uncomfortable. I went there to play music but it’s like if I didn’t immediately order an alcoholic beverage I was given dirty looks.

I was there for Thursday evening karaoke. Unfortunately, I don't have much good to say about it. First, they use "Karafun", yuk! Second, they have the equipment on stage to be the best karaoke venue around, however the "sound guy" was useless. I stood behind him for 5 minutes to watch him manipulate the sound system and all he did was play on his phone, and as any real sound guy will testify, you have to constantly adjust for each song. I do not recommend this venue if you are interested in singing quality karaoke.

I've had dinner here with my husband: delish food, good beer selection, cozy atmosphere.

I also decided to have my dad's "celebration of life" here a few weeks ago. Dan & team were great in coordinating everything, serving a delicious buffet & even bonus/surprise dessert, while holding open bar. My dad would've loved this place as much as I do. Everything was perfect. Lots of compliments from the family on the day and the food. Thanks Madcats for making a stress-free event during a really stressful time.

The food here was creative and outstanding. Prices were good.

The live entertainment that night was Chicago's Rock Veterans - THE CAVE DWELLERS -- they rocked and we all sang along.

The vibes are awesome here! The music/bands are great! The service is below average. You'll wait a while for a drink if you're at a table. Waitress isn't really friendly (she looks irritated that she's there) and appears there is only one on staff, besides bartender who may help out so may be she overwhelmed the handful times I've been there. I'm not gonna let her ruin my experience over the vibes and music. But, I would've gave a 5 star if she had a better attitude and served me within a decent amount of time. I was there 4 hours this last time, and she could have gotten a lot more than 3 drinks out of me.
Just more of the same costumer service decline since 2020. Sad, but true!
