If u're not a karaoke expert & don't feel like getting up in front of a group of people this spot is perfect. They pass around the mic & u can sing at ur table, by the bar or in a circle of friends.
Get a private room and karaoke to your heart's content. The price of scotch is really reasonable!
Love Japas 38! Jun was the best - such a friendly guy and treated us well for the 3 hours we were there. I used to lived in Japan and this is my favorite karaoke box in NYC.
Private karaoke rooms with a strict policy on time. Once your two hours are up you will be offered one hour for 10$ a head without booze or 20$ a head with booze.
I love that they let you get your own drinks at the bar even if you are in a private room .
Party Packages are the best deal. Reserve 24 hours in advance with 4+ for the alcohol + appetizer + private room setup of your choice. Ranges from $25-$45/person depending.
They certainly have some next lvl karaoke rooms . Open karaoke at the bar is great too! $1/song
Japanese restaurant during lunch , karaoke bar at night. The lunch specials are worth coming here for.
Fun place for karaoke . Good space at main bar and the rooms are also quite good!
Come for Happy Hour and get a ridiculous, huge tropical drink for less than $5.
Sitting at the bar is good. Getting Mika and masa's attention is better
They are super selective on weekends. Don't be fooled
The Fugees' Killing Me Softly is a free drink winning song on Tues nights.
Awesome Saki Bomb/Karaoke Place. I highly suggest to never order the all-you-can-eat fried food platter. It's like an apocalypse to your stomach lining .
Great place for parties...food is ok....but well worth the money for the drinks and a private room for karaoke !
Sketchy place. Place wasn't crowded and took forever to get a drink menu. Drink prices are for liquor only, they charge extra for the mixer, which is really misleading. And double check your receipt.
Score about 95 on your Karaoke and get a free drink!
I spent most of 2007 at this Karaoke den, swillin sake bombs and singing myself hoarse to Mr Roboto and The Pixies. All-you-can-drink beer + sake + karaoke $25/person for two hours
Great time! The party pack is well worth it.
We found their basic party package was a good deal :)
Tiny rooms but relatively cheap drinks .
The best ever. No joke. The. Fucking. Best.
Pick 1 song on a weekend. That's all you'll get.
They can handle large groups
I recommend the miso soup ! Delish!
Unlimited alcohol , songs , private room , some sushi...did I die and go to heaven?!?!
Had a great time sang my heart out
We're not gonna take it! NO! We're not gonna take it anymore!!
Good place good food
I recommend the plum wine highly!
Halp Hour!
You can't hear the mics at this place so if you actually want to hear what people are singing go somewhere else. When you ask them to turn it up they don't know what to do.
best karaoke in manhattan - go right after work for their half price house wine and beer happy hour
Get there before 7pm. Half price drinks and pitchers of beer .
Don't eat the sushi .
Don't eat the food!!
Someone in the bar stole my credit card data and sold it. July 1 2017. Don't go there
Good song selection but the crowd at Chorus seems to chose more upbeat songs .
Great sushi great karaoke !
Overpriced, small rooms. Don't bother—plenty of better locations a couple blocks south.
No Beastie Boys or 'Only the Good Die Young'! That's like sacrilegious.
Go get splintered - order sushi - sing songs that you shouldn't - have a sushi-fight (or not) - and try not to break stuff
Song list isn't so great. Go to chorus on 32nd.
Horrible place!!! The staff in this location is horrible and very unprofessional. Went here with a large party and will never go back.
3527-12. It's on.
I would keep walking to 32nd to Chorus karoke. Music selection wasn't that good (didn't have "I'm on a boat" :-( ) and had a poor atmosphere.
4040-02, do it.
Not a fan. Long story, don't ask questions.
fantastic karaoke bar. both the room and the bar have fantastic vibes. - Marissa Stuart
Try the Double Bacon Cheeseburger Slider - Juicy. Good bread. Just the right size. - Pelle Sten
They have a SICK selection of songs in English, Spanish & Japanese! Nice after-work atmosphere too! - Joanne Kendall
Love this spot. Huge song list, and the public room at the front is perfect for large groups. - Cameron Gidari
Good happy friendly bartenders and wait staff. The music at happy hour is awesome!! - Nikki B
