My friends and I loved our time there, it’s the third time I’ve been there, the sound is perfect, the service is welcoming. Make sure you have a list of songs on queue ready so that all you do is sing all night!! 🪩✨😆
Unmarked grey door to the right of the front door of the restaurant. Great size rooms for any group. Private rooms with thick doors so you can’t hear the people in the other rooms and they can’t hear you. Huge book full of songs, half in Korean and half English. Book is organized by song title. Hilarious Kpop video will play instead of the music video for the song you chose. 10/10 good time. Full bar and food available for purchase.
I want to love this place but there’s certainly some improvements they can make. The hodgepodge android system they use for queueing songs is pretty awful to deal with. Between having a limited song selection or no lyrics on songs it’s difficult to find something to sing to.
Also if you manage to get the built in android keyboard to pop up, good luck trying to get rid of it from your screen.
The other part they need to give some love to is the washrooms. With two single bathrooms, there’s high traffic in a busy night and they quickly become a disaster, with clogged sinks and messy toilets it’s a little disappointing.
All in all for karaoke I want to love this place because it has a great setup for private parties, but it just misses on some key aspects of a karaoke lounge.
I came with some white homies (happy birthday Heather) and they ripped the damn door handle clean off the door. The manager was so patient and understanding. Peach soju still rocks. Best karaoke spot in 100 km radius
