Friends Restaurant

Honestly the best karaoke joint I've ever been to. If you haven't tried, I highly recommend this private room asian karaoke vs. the normal American style. Notably in Asian Karaoke rooms 1) they have private rooms (here it's $20/hr) and when you have a big group of people this is really, really cheap! 2) They have really recent songs. Not only do they have English songs, they have the most recent ones! I'm talking as long as it didn't come out yesterday it's probably there. To get to the english pop songs, just press 'country' until you get to something that says '' which means 'pop.' You'll also be able to recognize this by the fact that there's no flag next to pop. (Korean songs have the Korean flag, Chinese songs have the Chinese flag.) Once you walk in, there's a hallway leading to the main area. Along the hallway are the private rooms. Each private rooms has a table w/ a set of glasses, a tv stand with the microphones and some tambourines to cheer your friends on, a remote to choose songs from, a book to choose songs from, a tv to read the lyrics off of, several couches, glasses and a pitcher of fresh ice cold water. You can order food and drinks to be brought to your room. On the song remote you can choose songs by searching in the electronic database. Just press 'country' until you get to your desired country, then press 'title' or 'artist' to look for songs based on each category. At the bottom left there's a button to change to english if your remote is set to korean. Also if there's a book to choose songs from, if you're using this, there will be an ID number next to each song - enter the id number then click reserve in order to add your song to the list. If no other songs are yet registered, press start. To cancel the current song and go to the next one click 'cancel' then 'start.' At the end of the hallway there's a bar and a main seating area where you can play karaoke for free. You just have to buy drinks/food in order to keep your seat. Since this spot is not too well known there's usually only a group or two of friends in this area so you'll definitely get your chance to sing if you choose this. Service is really friendly and it's spotless clean here! It also doesn't look old and rundown like a lot of other Asian karaoke places.
