The overall space here is confusing if you don't know in advance but there are a bunch of…read morebusinesses sharing parts of the physical space, and parts of the menu. There is a tea shop that you will supply the tea drinks you order, a Chinese noodle/dumpling place for both dine in and takeout (dine in=East Grill Karaoke, takeout counter=East Dumpling House) and Nosh which is a Chinese / Korean BBQ restaurant. When you enter the main door (not takeout door to the right) they will ask if you want Nosh or East Grill. East Grill has a dining room to the left, Nosh to the right, with a large bar and tables near a karaoke stage in between. I never saw anyone actually doing karaoke in that open space so not sure how that works but that is supposed to be part of East Grill. I've reviewed Nosh separately, today I'll talk about East. They have a lot of dumplings, noodles and skewers on the menu. We tried one of each. I really enjoyed the lamb skewer and would order that again. I also really like the noodle dish, but I can't remember its name (szechuan style or something like that maybe?). They were tangy and the noodles themselves were thick and fresh and delicious. Would definitely order these again. The dumplings we tried were also very good, probably not Bob's Shanghai level good, but not too far behind either. I would probably come here to try things they don't have at Bobs in future unless I was craving and Bob's was too long a wait. Its not shade on East, but more that Bob's is only a block away and just that good. The bartender has never heard of bourbon but if you like soju or sweet cocktails there is plenty to enjoy. I am not thrilled with the tea shop unfortunately; my fresh fruit yogurt tea had no detectable yogurt, and on a previous visit I ordered a wintermelon milk tea and got what I think was a plain green jasmine milk tea. Wintermelon is extremely distinctive, if you have had it you know what I mean. Oh, and they validate parking but on both visits the gate was up when we left. Hope this is helpful, since the place is confusing to the uninitiated.

Not the best service, not the best food, but it's close to Rockville town center. First service,…read morepretty cold and non existent. In the past we used to order a lot of drinks and food but we stopped because it took too long to get our orders and of course the drinks are super overpriced. We came back last weekend and we only ordered waters and a few bubble teas and it took over an hour before we got our drinks. The karaoke machines are super glitchy. For instance, you have to wait a few precious seconds before the system registers. You can scan a sketchy QR code to see the song queue but honestly, I don't trust it. I only go here if my friends suggest it but there are much better options out there. The clear copyright infringement and misspelling in the software program is interesting....

My friends and I visited tonight for karaoke and were having a fantastic time. We've been here…read morebefore, enjoyed ourselves in the past, and came back expecting another great experience to wrap up an otherwise pretty great night. The atmosphere was fun, the drinks were good, and everything was going well until the last few minutes before closing. Around 1:55 AM, security came into our karaoke room and informed us that the venue was closing. One member of our group politely explained that we were in the middle of our final song and asked if we could have the remaining few minutes to finish it, since they officially close at 2. Security agreed and told us they would return in five minutes. We thanked them and immediately began wrapping things up. Unfortunately, only a minute or two later, a staff member entered the room, told us we needed to "get the f#ck out," and began shutting down the karaoke equipment while we were still finishing the song. When someone in our group respectfully commented that we didn't have to speak like that to us, the response was essentially, "I don't give a f#ck, I want to go home." As we were leaving, we also heard another staff member shouting at customers to get out, including comments such as "Goodbye, adios, whatever f#cking language you speak." Whether intended as a joke or not, it came across as unprofessional and unnecessarily hostile. To be clear, we completely understand that businesses have closing times and that employees want to go home at the end of a long shift. We were already preparing to leave and had no issue with the venue closing. The problem wasn't being asked to leave...it was the way it was handled. What had been a genuinely enjoyable night ended on a very negative note because of the attitude and language directed toward customers. It's disappointing because we had a great time otherwise and have enjoyed visiting in the past. Hopefully management addresses this, because a little professionalism and courtesy in those final few minutes would have left us looking forward to returning instead of reconsidering whether we will.

Excellent Karaoke and DJ Services! I enthusiastically…read morerecommend District Karaoke for karaoke and DJ services. We hired District Karaoke for our recent wedding reception in November 2019 and could not be more pleased with how the event turned out. Jesse, our emcee extraordinaire, is professional, prepared, responsive, and kept the party going. He also added thoughtful touches that made the event personal and memorable for me and my husband. Our guests had a great time and we didn't have to worry about anything which allowed us to enjoy our reception and sing our hearts out. If you are in search of professional karaoke services look no further. You won't be disappointed.

I highly recommend this league, if for nothing else than it is a GREAT conversation starter…read more Picture this, you're on a date/double-date/outing with people you don't know really well, and the conversation has fizzled. You casually say something about your karaoke league, and the question pile up. "That's a thing?" "What does that even MEAN?" "So you, like, sing?" And next thing you know the awkwardness is gone and conversation can continue on. But conversation-enhancement aside, this league is amazing. It's a crazy amount of fun, it's a great way to meet people, and if you ever needed an excuse to bring out Halloween costumes from years past - this is it. This is my third season of District Karaoke and it's enough of a part of my life that it's where my boyfriend/fiancé (also a DKer) proposed to me this season. Yup, that was amazing. So, yea - I'd say its pretty awesome. Policy is a cool venue for it (it's upstairs on the second floor), especially now that they added a stage (it was kind of hard to see the people performing -- yes, we call singing karaoke performing -- before, so that definitely helped. Pretty excellent drink and food specials, especially since Policy can be kind of pricey. Also, DK has a sing-it/schwing it rating system that allows for creativity beyond just can-you-sing-or-not - such as a member of one team getting a Cookie Monster puppet and singing "C is for Cookie" in a gravelly voice. Epic. Anyone is welcome, so you're always free to come by and check it out - I'd recommend during semi finals or finals when things get really epic. But yea, definitely the best extracurricular activity I do in DC.

I think this was the first time (and hopefully not the last time) visiting a Tex-Mex AND…read moreSalvadorian restaurant. While folks at my table went with Tex-Mex options, I decided to go with a Salvadorian option. In particular, I went with the Sopa de Marisocos, which was served with fish, a whole crab, mussels, shrimps, clams, and eggs. I thought the 20 dollar price tag as pretty fair considering how much seafood was in the bowl of soup. Although I thought the soup should have come with rice, I did not realize that the soup was served with tortillas. I guess the tortillas were the rice substitute. Overall, I thought the soup was very delicious and seasoned very well. I'm glad that I followed the waitress' advice and went with the addition of cream to the soup because it elevated the soup's flavor. Besides the soup, I had my fair share of margaritas. I thought the margaritas were mixed well because they were not too sweet or acidic for me. Also, the restaurant has happy hour most days until 6 pm (or was it 7 pm?). I have to say that I must visit again, because there are a lot of things on the menu that I would like to try during my next visitS. Overall, I thought the service was impeccable. Our bartender, who later became our waitress, was very helpful in making recommendations and suggestions regarding the menu. Also, she was very patient because it took us a while to finally order food - although we did order plenty of margaritas while deciding on what to eat. The restaurant is a decent size with both indoor and outdoor seating. From the way the tables are arranged, El Gavilan looks like it is very accommodating for medium sized groups. The restaurant does have parking; however, the parking lot is a bit tight.

Warning: this place is hard to find. there is no sign but its located beside the dance studio in that shopping/office complex. Interior: ghetto-ly decorated with christmas tinsel and lights. carpet looks dirty. so dirty. the hall has this random black carpet lining that is all torn up. Music: no books like cafe muse but a separate screen/remote. i like this, you can search by artist/song, etc. but the english selection was poor. I mean, they didn't even have Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer. no Taylor Swift LOVE STORY. No Kelly Clarkson Breakaway!!!!! and NO RAP. No 50 cent In da Club. Drinks: NO ALCOHOL.....we had green tea. $10 for a pitcher. Huge profit margin for them. Rates/Pricing: very inexpensive. the more you sing, the more discount you get. we had 9 people. $30/hr. we sang 3 hrs 45 minutes. our total was $110. bc we sang over 3 hrs we got 30% off. supposedly you have to be a "member" to get a discount but just act sad or tell them you'll join and they'll give it to you. From M-W they have all you can sing for $10/pp. Cheap but I think I'm going to check out iRock next time I'm in Maryland. or better yet, just go to Cafe Muse bc they have a better english song selection.
