Pretty solid place to go karaoking. I took my siblings and significant other here for some karaoke.

The atmosphere was lively and fun, and it’s definitely a great place to go with friends for a night of singing and laughter. However, the karaoke computer was a bit tricky to navigate since it was in Korean, which made choosing songs a bit confusing at times. Also, the room we were in got pretty hot, so we had to leave the door open for some air.

The karaoke room is super fun but I just wish they’d turn on the led lights! The last few times I’ve came they don’t turn it on and it just kinda kills the whole experience :( the food is good as well!
Vegetarian options: My friend is Muslim and for an Asian restaurant usually they have mostly pork items but they had a good variety of things that just had vegetables like the glass noodles and kimbap

We visited with a large group (14 people) last night and rented their larger room for 2 hours at $50/hr. Lots of karaoke song options with good service for food and drinks. Note they don't have hard liquor, only beer and wine (and soda and non alcoholic drinks). The karaoke equipment had a learning curve because it isn't all in English but you figure it out and then it worked pretty well.We had the wings and shrimp tempura and both were good. There are a lot of other menu options like fried rice dishes, noodles, etc.

Held my kid's 9th birthday party here. Getting a group of 3rd grade girls singing their hearts out for hours was amazing. The venue wasn't what I expected, but they were super gracious and had a good enough selection of American pop songs to keep this party going. Everyone had a great time!

Overall fine placeThese photos represent how I felt after the 2 sojus I had wayy to fast. (Also the only photos I took whoops)The have Korean food.A very different take on ttekbokki than I am Normally used to.Beef bugolgi is good!Restaurant is fine. No open grills here though if you were looking for those.Soju is incredibly overpriced at ~19$ a bottleRecommend for the kareoke. but not for eating.

I love it here! I’ve gone here a few times and it’s always a lot of fun. Great food and drinks, very friendly staff. Yes, the karaoke list is in Korean but the staff explains it very well and it isn’t rocket science. A little logic and an open mind goes a long way- people need to realize that there are other languages besides English. Come here and support a local business, we need to keep places like this in Minnesota alive!

They kept making mistakes on our order. The waiters were very distracted and on their phones.

We went out for a night of karaoke with our adult kids and had a blast! We really enjoyed the selection of artists and songs. The food was delicious because, of course, Hoban is awesome! The drinks were a nice addition to loosen up the group and get us all belting out choruses.The room was clean, the staff were attentive. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Understanding how to use the machine was the most challenging part but even that was fun.I highly recommended this experience for folks who want to try something new. Very much recommend ordering some Soju to make it easier to get in the mood to embarrass yourself in front of your family and/or friends!
Everything here is great, the food is good. The only issue is that the karaoke system isn’t up to date if they could at least update the system were people could connect their phone to the system it would’ve been better.

I made a reservation and the girl on the phone was very polite and patient. I then tried rescheduling the reservation because some changes occurred, though this time it was someone else who picked up and they were very rude, sounding annoyed throughout the whole entire conversation where eventually he left me on silent for a whole minute before hanging up. I was calm throughout the whole call but this really ruined my mood and first impression of this place.

Disclaimer: This was my 1st time to a karaoke bar. My friends & I loved it. The karaoke system remote is in Korean but they have a printed picture of the translation so using it was not an issue. There are 2 "small" & 2 "large" rooms. The small rooms would probably fit 5 adults, 6 but it might be a bit cramped and the large rooms would probably fit 10-12 adults. Not sure about the large rooms but the small rooms have 2 mics.We were satisfied with the music selection. They have Korean, Japanese & American songs and there is a booklet you choose the songs from then enter it into the system. The Korean & Japanese songs are in characters/symbols and not in romanization. I'm not sure how often the book is updated but the most recent song I found was by Drake that came out in September 2021. There were only 2 songs they did not have otherwise they have almost any popular you can think of.The food & drinks were brought to our rooms fairly quickly. It'd be nice to have a tablet or online ordering to order from otherwise you have to hope there is a hostess/waiter at the front desk if you want to order.

You should try to understand how Korean karaokes work. It's bit of a different experience but fun!You're placed in a dark room with menu for food but you're on your own for the controls of the karaoke. The backgrounds are not controlled by anyone and just appear when you pick a song.This place is pretty much how a Korean a karaoke place in Chicago or LA is like but maybe not as high quality. But for what little we have in MN, this is really nice. Highly recommend, but have an open mind!

This place is AMAZING! The song list is DIVERSE, the staff are friendly and magnificent. The private room helped us introverts let loose without a care in the world. We had a BLAST
