Nita was terrible and bitter. The reviews are all true (as an owner of an establishment, the responses are crazy). I wouldn’t waste your time going here if you’re coming from out of town - the old lady kills the vibe immediately.

Unreal. I wish I read the reviews before I came here. Every bad review on here is true
Lexie VanAntwerp
Those reviews about getting yelled at are 100% true—I experienced the exact same thing. Which is such a shame, because the bar itself is adorable with its 50s theme and so much potential to be amazing. I totally understand having a minimum policy, but there’s no need to scream at customers. I’ve never been treated like that before.
EDIT: I was not standing or dancing on the booth seats. I sat the entire time, so you must have me confused with someone else. Please don’t spread false information.

Terrible experience from start to finish. I came here hoping for a fun night of karaoke, but instead I was treated like a burden the moment I walked in. The staff was incredibly rude and made me feel completely unwelcome—no greetings, no help, just attitude. It felt like they didn’t want customers at all.
To make things worse, the place smelled awful. There was a strong, musty odor throughout the building that made it hard to even enjoy being there. It felt dirty and poorly maintained, and nothing about the environment was inviting.
We ended up leaving early because the energy was just plain uncomfortable. Between the rude service and the bad smell, I honestly regret wasting my time and money here. There are plenty of karaoke places that are way more fun and respectful—this is not one of them.

Great, lively and kitschy karaoke bar. Everyone was having a great time and it is obvious that it has many regulars.

I really hate leaving bad reviews for businesses, but these people are the fun police. If I could’ve chosen zero stars I would have. We had a decent group of people to stop by, have fun, and sing some karaoke. The guy behind the MC table was overtly rude and annoyed by multiple people in our group and their song choices for no reason. The older lady who seemed like and owner/manger was extremely rude and kept coming over to our section if we sang along to loud to a song or cheered to loud after someone finished as “we have other people in the bar who do not appreciate it”. Yes we are from out of town, but we were made to feel weird being in their bar by how we were treated by multiple staff members all while spending a good amount of money on our bar tabs. Highly recommending to skip this bar and find a different place to have fun.

Don’t listen to others this place is a great time as long as you’re not too rowdy
I’ve never been to a bar where it felt like the staff didn’t want us there, until I went to Karaoke Palace. This was the strangest and most uncomfortable bar experience I’ve ever had. There were signs around the entire bar about how we should behave and things that we are not allowed to do (like cheer and clap for our friends when they are singing).
My friends walked in a few minutes before me, and had asked the waitress if they serve cocktails. They mentioned that they don’t and only have beer or wine. After which my friend looked over to our other friend and said if there’s a bar around here, we can go grab a quick drink (we were in Walla Walla to celebrate a 30th birthday). To which the waitress responds if you go leave to go to a bar, you will not be allowed back in here.
As soon as I walked in and sat down a rude waitress came up to me and asked me if I was going to buy something. I said that I was good for now and would order in a little bit. She then told me that I have to order something if I wanted to stay. I ordered a few waters, which were “great value” brand, of which each bottle cost $5.50. I agree with a previous review, that if I could give this establishment zero stars, I would.

Super unprofessional and rude staff. I will never give them another dollar.

Workers there were rude and scolded our friend for cheering. So many rulessigns around the “palace” stating no whistling, no hitting your hand on the table etc. For a can of non alcoholic seltzer water it was over $6, which was more than some of the beer and wine options.
Natalie Tyler
Very sad establishment. Beware the anti-fun witch. Charged my friend $6 for water since she wasn’t buying an alcohol beverage.
