The cons unfortunately outweigh the pros. It's an alright place if you're going with 1 or 2 other people for a casual session, and they're really quick to get you a reservation, even on the weekends. They use healsonic for their karaoke system and some songs that aren't available at other locations fortunately work! However, the microphones kept cutting out through the entire 2 hour session, and the speakers kept popping. The usual disco lighting system was creaking and whirling a bunch- that we at first thought was genuine defect. For the pricing, I think it's kind of ridiculous, but for a last minute place, it'll get the job done. Try to go a little later than 7 since they won't have made any soju flavors earlier than that.
Wheelchair accessibility: There's an elevator! The hallways are a bit narrow but a single wheelchair can easily fit.

Drinks were watered down, my friend had 4 cocktails and didn’t feel tipsy at all and has a very low tolerance. I’d avoid at all costs if you plan on ordering drinks other than beer. Otherwise this place was fine for a night of karaoke. The mics blew out a few times but still had a decent night. The staff was nice.

If you can find karaoke somewhere else in the city GO ELSEWHERE! First I had confirmed for my big party of about 21 people a month before the date. I called on the day of the actual event to confirm the party size and how many hours which I always said was 3 hours not 2. Some people in my party arrived first and they were told we could only have the room for 2 hours and had to be kicked out after. So when I arrived I ended up disputing that and saying what I confirmed for since the month prior. The man was very nasty and said well all of y’all can get out I’m gonna go kick your party out right now. That was very rude when apparently the different people I spoke to it was always confirmed for 3 hours. Next someone else in my party spoke to the same man and he said we were to move to another room after 9 because it was another large party who reserved for 9. Fast forward that was a lie because no party even so called came for that room and we stayed the WHOLE 3 hours in the same room . Next I noticed as people were ordering drinks at the bar one side of the bar was telling people you couldn’t pay for your stuff at the bar but it had to be billed to the room. The other side of the bar was saying you could pay for your items at the bar if you wanted to. So I called them out on that with several people around and they didn’t like that as well. Oh but it gets better then I discovered that they were charging people different gratuities on their drinks and adding on their own too which was different numbers for different people as well. They were also making up different prices for the drinks as well. For example my cousin ordered the same drink all night. Don Julio and juice which the first one was 20, then his second they charged him $27 and it just kept increasing till his last one was $34. This place is a complete scam from
The way they handle business. The way they talk to people, the way they make up their own prices and add their own tax. COMPLETE SCAM! Also, it gets better they charged my card 2x for the amount of 700. If you can go somewhere else go oh and also they act like they don’t take cash so they can slap your card with the extra gratuity and throw own added tip as if you have to tip them. Don’t waste your time !
I came here with friends late one night and we had a fun time singing and drinking. We got the all-you-can-drink, which is limited but can be cost effective if you hustle. The music selection and the music I listen to have a small overlap but I found a few that worked.

I RARELY give 1-star reviews on Google but here we are.There are sooo many other better options. Don’t come here. Called in advance to reserve. They asked us for IDs when we arrived, which is totally understandable. One of our friends didn’t have her physical ID with her, only a pic of her driver’s license. The manager was so condescending, told us immediately that “no other bars” would take us (untrue because again, we’re ALWAYS in Ktown) and passive-aggressively told us we had to “go home” to get the ID? Turning us down was one thing and we would have totally understood BUT OMG his attitude was so unnecessary ?Anyway, not even 5 mins after that, we luckily were able to finally get a spot in one of our other regular bars and they accepted us with no issues. We also obviously all looked over 21 (because we were all in our 30s ??)Also, we came here on a Saturday night (peak hours) and we thought it was weird that the place was almost empty. I guess that’s why. ??♀️Oh, and when we came in, the place smelled like bleach. STRONG BLEACH SMELL ☠️. Soooo, there’s that too. ?

Well I've been coming to this place for a while now. They are under new management so let's see how it will turn out after renovation.

Private room karaoke ? $40 an hour with a 2 hour minimum. High tech digital catalog of THOUSANDS of songs.Full bar with an odd rule that all cocktails are served as doubles... Can't get a single unless you order a shot ?. These might have been 'special rules' reserved for an obvious tourist... But that was my experience.

This place is great for a casual night of karaoke! Affordable, fun and low key.
Just save yourself the trouble and don’t even bother coming to this place. Very little song library and easily the worst private karaoke rooms in the city. I swear my Google Nest mini in my bathroom is louder than their speakers. Service is horrendous too, the server keeps forgetting our orders and its just beers LMAOJust a terrible experience overall and they have the audacity to lock you down a 2-hour minimum ew

They cut the music at the 1 hour but they charged us for 2 hours. When I asked about it they said that they won't refund the money because the minimum is two hours, yet none of this was mentioned beforehand. We would have stayed the 2 hours if they hadn't cut the
