| - THE place to sing, to rap, to drink, and to eat all at the same time!
Located in the same plaza as District One, Icy Juicy, Cue D's, Myxx, and Cafe Moda, this is where you need to go for karaoke. Upon entering, you'll be immediately greeted and be asked how many is in your party. If busy, your name and number will be taken to put on a list. Had to wait 3 hours once so I recommend making a reservation or calling in advance especially on the weekends. If you happen to have to wait, you can drink, play pool, eat, or smoke hookah in the proximal places while you wait for them to call you.
Rooms are all numbered (listed above the doors) and vary from how many people you have with you. There'll be a large center table with couches in its perimeter. You'll get two mics with new cloth covers for sanitary purposes and there are tambourines in the room. The disco lights are adjustable and be sure to use the call button against the wall if you need anything. For the smokers, smoking is allowed in the room. Just ask for an ashtray and they'll give you one.
As for the music, they range from oldies to more present day mainstream. They also have different languages including Korean, Vietnamese, and Tagalog. Make sure to make the most of your time there by reserving songs in advance!
The food and drinks... buy two Soju, get one free. We always opt for the yogurt and pineapple flavors. Also, two buckets of beer and you'll get the next free. Drink up because karaoke gets a lot better intoxicated. Haha. Their Korean fried chicken here is bomb. Get it. I recommend asking for the sauce on the side and just dipping it in to preserve the crispness. Their kimchi fried rice is good too. If you stay long enough, they always give some kind of appetizer on them. We've gotten free fries multiple times.
Pricing is very reasonable. You're charged per hour but there's always some kind of deal going on. We've stayed here for hours and hours, eating, and drinking without limitations with our highest tab at about $200. Mind you, we went a little overboard but a good night shouldn't cost more than $100.
This is definitely the best place to karaoke. I've been to others along Chinatown but never returned to them. The customer service, ambiance, music, food, and pricing cannot be beat.
