Terrible experience. Admittedly from out of town, went there at 8:30pm for something to eat. Music is blaring that you can barely talk even though three people were there (with food). I told the waitress we wanted food and she gives us a table. Asks us what we want to drink with no menu -- I ask for a whisky. She brings a half shot for my wife and I in a plastic mini cup. When I ask for dinner she gives us a handwritten menu and tells us the chef is gone but she can warm most things up. Ridiculous, I say "no" just give us the bill. It was $18 for two tiny drinks, when we say this doesn't add up she blames the owner. Still unhappy just writing this.Do not go here unless you are already blasted because drinks are overpriced and they do not care about you.

Best experience ever

Food was so-so the one time I went. Kind of greasy but may be better by now. However, living in the neighborhood a few blocks away, they are a miserable business to live near. The building isn’t built to be a karaoke bar and they didn’t bother to add soundproofing, so off key singing blasts for blocks, until 2AM.Being part of this community, we want to support local businesses, especially those owned by BIPOC community. The thing is that this business doesn’t seem to care about the neighborhood or they wouldn’t make it a place where we can’t live or function more than half the nights in a week.I hope that they will do what they didn’t do during Covid and invest a little for the sake of hundreds of residents and add some soundproofing, so we can go back to living normally instead of being sick from lack of sleep.

I'd like to give them a better rating, but anything I could say is overshadowed by the fact that they are inconsiderate of the neighborhood. I live across the street and down a block, but for weeks in a row the bass has kept many people in the neighborhood awake until almost 2AM. For those of us with jobs and with health issues, the lack of sleep makes what was a home into hell. We want to welcome businesses into the neighborhood, but they need to remember it IS a neighborhood and people have children with slipping grades due to lack of sleep and fully grown adults on the verge of losing jobs due to performance impacted by sleep deprivation. Nobody should be able to hear the bass from a block away, while inside with the windows closed.

It was a cold, depressing night in Seattle where you can see your breath as you're walking & complaining to a bus buddy about how there's no cute guys in Seattle. That's how cold it was. Only November, and you're already seeing ice on the ground. This would be an unfortunate time to accidentally slip & fall before the holidays and especially if you don't have health insurance since you're self-employed. No wonder, civilians here stay inside & hide during this season. Luckily, when you say, "Vietnamese karaoke", it's a bit more convincing to lure people back out in the wild. This place is very Vietnamese. Probably because it has karaoke in Vietnamese. You are able to control the songs on the laptop and request whatever, but why would you want to ruin the Vietnamese-ness charm of this place? I mean, tacky fish tanks, neon lights, I think bamboo printed decors, and clientele drinking Heineken, how awesome is that? There's a food menu, mostly finger food items. Located in Skyway, behind the casino. I don't think there's a parking attendant so you might not want to leave valuables in your car. So next time, when you have to motivate homies to come out, just say the magic word, "Vietnamese karaoke". Bam, you just got yourself an audience. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)

Went here on a Friday night when they had a live band and local singers. The bartender was super nice and the servers were nice but their service is so slow due to under staffing. I ordered their fish sauce wings and it was mediocre and nothing special. Their shots are very small and it took us 30 mins just to make two double shots on the rocks.

I saw "Vietnamese" and "karaoke" in the description and I knew this place was calling my name. Immediately, we were infatuated with the led waterfall decor, fish tank behind the bar and Space Needle painting on the wall. And of course, the stage had a fog machine, instruments and a fan, so you can become Beyoncé once it's plugged in. The sound system is really good here, so everyone can hear my rendition of "Born to Die" in any section of the restaurant. For food, we ordered fried lemongrass tofu and papaya salad. They give complimentary peanuts as well. The portions are fairly large. I heard the wings are amazing here, so I'll have to try it next time. The owner/servers are super sweet and let us take control of the laptop to find our karaoke songs on YouTube.
