Very fun! It’s been a while since I’ve been here, but the karaoke was great to watch. Drinks came in fun cups and were yummy too. Worth visiting.
Great atmosphere! I was there for the week so tried the Hula Hula at night for karioke. I admit drinks were more expensive than there neighbors but atmosphere was a huge difference. Will definitely stop there again next time in town.
DO NOT COME HERE. If I could give zero stars, I would. This establishment promotes unethical and discriminatory behavior. As a person of color who has supported many businesses in Seattle, I cannot stress this enough: DO NOT COME HERE.
Their karaoke night was a nightmare for me and my teammates, who came simply to enjoy a positive night together. Instead, we were met with blatant favoritism toward white patrons. I personally experienced a white woman physically put her hands on me, yet the karaoke host still defended her, while dismissing me, despite my having patiently waited over 50 minutes for my song to be played and her only placing her song and thinking it should be played first.
This is not just poor service. This is enabling racist behavior. I rarely write reviews, and only do so when a place is exceptionally great or seriously harmful. This place falls into the latter category.
AVOID THIS ESTABLISHMENT. Seattle deserves better.
We just had our wedding party there and couldn't recommend it highly enough. Everyone said they had a great time. Codie and the staff were super helpful, and as always the vibe was perfection. They made everything low stress for us and it was everything we hoped for. If you're unsure of what to do for your wedding and you even remotely enjoy karaoke, you can't go wrong
Fun times!
Super chill, excellent service
Great vibe and so much fun. If you're looking to sing Karoke or just dance to good music you should go. Get the blue lemonade frozen drink!
Fun Cap Hill atmosphere that is more energetic than a lot of bars around it. Fun tiki drinks, delicious food options, kind and competent wait staff, and KARAOKE seven days a week.
Great Karaoke Bar. They do Karaoke 7 days a week. Great atmosphere, great food and drinks. Definitely got a fun vibe here. Highly recommend
Lovely environment and selection of drinks. Mainly a karaoke bar but quite chaotic for it, cover charge on weekends, long waitlists, no earplugs available made it not a great experience overall. Sound quality and staff are amazing.

First time I saw a bartender yell and act hostile at customers from standing around. Not worth patronizing here when there’s better bars across the street
If you love karoking and a chill atmosphere. 10/10
expensive
Love the vibe at this place!
theoretically this is a great concept — tiki bar w karaoke!! practically, it doesn’t deliver.
there’s small print on the song queue that says “rotation subject to change”… what this actually means is that the KJ (Shan! there are multiple other review complaints about him already!) plays favorites and WILL bump people he knows to the top of the rotation.
why do we know this? we signed up around 10, waited THREE FULL HOURS, and still didn’t get to sing; when we checked, we realized that our group had been moved down multiple numbers and other folks’ songs (songs that were previously after ours, etc… we took a video so that we knew how long we had to wait!) had been moved up. seattle friend told us this had happened before to him at this bar as well, and he’d seen people walk in, talk to the dj, and skip the line … sooo this isn’t a one time thing.
TLDR: drinks were pricey, bartenders were aggressive, AND KJ Shan plays favorites !! if you want karaoke and a good vibe, go to crescent lounge down the street. this isn’t worth it.
