    2 stages in VIP ROOM 2
    Rachelle C.

    Location: A gem in east side San Jose! Story Road can get a little busy but as Genting is right across the street from Little Saigon, there are SO many food places to choose from after a night of singing karaoke! Service: The staff were SUPER nice and fun! Considering they deal with large groups... or large drunk groups!... they are very friendly and accomodating! Ambiance: Party Vibess are the best vibes! The lights, stages and multiple microphones in the rooms brought out our performer side lol! So much fun! Songs are found through iPad and Youtube! Easy and access to everything! I will say, a lot of karaoke places are hot and grimey but Genting was really clean and bright in the hallways. Food: BRING YOUR OWN FOOD AND DRINKS! A WIN FOR EVERYONE!! There are no limitations on what you can bring. If you have a cake to celebrate later they will kindly store it in their fridge! I think I've found my favorite karaoke place! I came as a guest so I was not aware of pricing, but again BYOD is always a win so just have your group split the costs!

    Small room (2-5 people)

    Don't be fooled by the small looking exterior. They have a large variety of rooms inside of all different sizes that are all clean and well decorated. For a small room, it is $58/hour with a mandatory 16% service fee as well as tax. After everything calculated, it actually comes out to be $77/hour. They have a karaoke system inside the rooms but for some reason, they hand you an iPad instead to choose the songs. The pros of doing so is that YouTube has all your favorite songs and even covers that you want to sing along to. The cons is that you're just singing along to a YouTube video. You can't adjust the key of the song or change back and forth between with or without accompaniment for fellow karaoke geeks out there. Additionally, if you have clumsier fingers, you can accidentally click on the YouTube video interrupting the song currently playing instead of queuing the video. The sound system itself has a nice echo to it so you can hear your own voice. I saw that most rooms have a mini stage too but ours didn't.

    It's been a hot minute since I sang karaoke. What better time than a friend's birthday? Round up your friendsters or even the fam for a good old fashioned sing off. If you've got karaoke at home, all the more power to you! We went all out and booked online for a VIP room big enough for 15-25 people even though we only had 14. VIP room requires a $300 deposit at booking which can be paid via Zelle, Venmo, or credit card over the phone. I coordinated with Yuna who was very helpful and informative. It's spacious and clean with lots of room to dance. LOVED the elevated musician spot up front complete with the third mic and high top chair. Claimed it as my corner. The mini stage in front of the tv screen moves up and down when you jump on it. Gotta keep the energy up especially with a few shy ones in the group. Pull them up to dance and get the party started! Flashing lights and surround sound had us feeling club vibes. Check in was fast and easy. They allow outside food & drinks so we got Lucky Tea next door. Staff was nice and fixed a minor issue we had a few minutes in. Choose songs on the tablet and have fun. We went a few min past the original two hours but they only charged us for those extra minutes rather than a whole hour. Totally appreciated. There's already tax and a 20% service charge included in the bill. Visit Genting Karaoke for a good time tonight! Open daily from 2pm-2am.

    My go to Karaoke spot in San Jose! I have been to this place with my friends many times. Recently, I went with a group of 20 and they had no problem getting a room open for us! The rooms are very spacious, clean, and the sound system is great. I always call ahead of time to make sure they have rooms available because it can get busy on certain nights. The front desk is always very very nice and accommodating and I have always had amazing interactions with them. They also have a fridge that has many options for soft drinks at the front. It's also great how they allow you to bring your own drinks! I will always love this place and I can't wait to come back!

    Amazed at how little it looked outside, but they have so many rooms! They have room sizes that vary for big parties or small parties. You can adjust a lot of their light settings inside, which I think is great if you're really partying it up or just want it to be mellow. They use a small tablet where you sing karaoke songs from youtube

    5.0 Stars!!!! My friends and I love this place. It is the best karaoke spot we have been too. You can say we are frequent goers lol. We have tried every room here. I am obsessed with the stage, it gives a pop star feel. The stage is only in the bigger rooms but the price is still decent. I love how the karaoke songs are on Youtube and not the karaoke books. They allow you to bring your own food and drinks, which is why I love this place. One of the workers even gave us cups, an ice bucket, and napkins. Amazing service! Amazing place!

    Lucia T.

    The service was great! The person in front is extremely understanding and nice, and there's even drinks you can buy. I went here for my birthday with my friends, and it was sooo fun! The only downsides are that the drinks are pretty expensive and the microphones weren't working that well at first. But I totally recommend if you have the money for it.

    Does the KTV give you a score/rating after you sing a song?

    It didn't give scores when I went last month but you can ask the employees if it's an option.

    What selections of songs do you have? Is there viet songs or korean?

    yes

    How much does it cost?

    Depends on what kind of room u want

    The easiest functioning karaoke spot I've been to, as it is streamed via YouTube and not a Karaoke system.

If you made a reservation for like 7 p.m. and you check in at 7:10, they will start the clock at 7:10 (this is good -- I've been to places that would start the clock at 7). Other than that, I was underwhelmed by the karaoke system. First, the system tablet is mounted on a wall in a corner of the room, so you have to walk over to search. A tablet that can be handed around would offer a better experience. Their karaoke system is confusing. I tried searching "Ariana" (Ariana Grande) and nothing turned up, but I was able to find her eventually under one of the lists of artists (and this issue repeated for multiple artists). We all struggled to find songs. If you want to sing Japanese songs, you need to search it in Japanese as the system is case-specific and will not turn up searches using English romanization. This would have been fine for us in theory since almost everyone in our group knew Japanese, but the same aforementioned issues with searching were still present regardless of language. Someone in our group had experienced this system before and helped us navigate it, but I don't think a good karaoke system should be so user-unfriendly. There's a QR code you can scan to browse the system on your phone, but there's a mismatch between songs available through the QR code link and what the system actually has, so some songs that we added through the link actually did not exist in the system. It's unfortunately that the song search was so bad, because the system did have a large Japanese song selection, including recent hits. They have YouTube, but unlike other karaoke places with YouTube there's no way to queue songs, so you have to wait until a song is done to search and play a new song. Because of lack of ability to queue, we resigned ourselves to using the funky system since that could at least accommodate queuing. We were charged a 15% service fee in addition to the room fee and tax. I have seen past reviews report different percentage rates for the service fee, so I wasn't sure what to expect. They write down the service fee percentage on a slip of paper when checking you in, so it seems the percentage might not be standardized. Right before filling out the slip, the person at the front asked if we would be consuming food in the room, and we said no, but we did have bags of takeout leftovers that we weren't going to eat while in the room. I think you can have a good experience here if you are OK with spending a lot of time dealing with the system.

It was pretty calm during the day and didn't seem to get a crazy amount of foot traffic, which I actually enjoyed because we were able to sit down, relax, eat, and enjoy the atmosphere without it feeling crowded. Between our food and drinks we spent around $46, so I would say it's moderately pricey, but everything we had was good. I had a birria taco from Mi Lindo Apatzingán, my husband got four tacos, and we also got rice and beans that we really enjoyed. Our food came out pretty quickly, definitely in less than 10 minutes. We also got sour apple drinks from Las Cherry's. The drinks took a little longer, over 10 minutes, but there was only one girl working at the time, so it was completely understandable. The drinks were refreshing and I definitely want to come back and try more of what Las Cherry's has to offer. I really like the whole concept here because there are so many different food trucks in one place. There's plenty of covered outdoor seating, TVs to watch while you eat, and colorful decorations that make it a fun but still calm and chill place to hang out. Even with some of the trucks being closed, there were still plenty of options. I would definitely come back, especially to try more from Las Cherry's and the potato food truck that caught my eye!

We were thrilled to book for an hour. At first we were given a small room, then we were asked to go to a different room which was bigger, medium size. We were fine as it was just my friend and I, the two of us. We had so much fun singing the English songs from YouTube. The only thing is there wasn't a way to input the songs in advance on YouTube. The karaoke system they had is mostly for Mandarin songs. We were told if we want to sing English songs to use YouTube. We were fine with that. Although it would have been nice to have English songs from an actual karaoke system than YouTube as you can do YouTube anywhere, just need a speaker system. But my friend and I still had fun. We were able to sing some BTS songs and 90s music! Overall, we had a blast singing for an hour. We didn't get a chance to try any drinks or foods. Next time! I also want to try some Mandarin songs next time. My friend didn't know Mandarin, so I didn't want to do Mandarin songs since she didn't understand, only sang English songs with her.

I'd definitely come back for another round

I walked into a space that gets loud and warm during busy periods, and cleanliness varied by section, but the overall setup gave my group plenty of options for a few hours of entertainment. The arcade is the strongest part of the offering. I found the selection of rhythm games solid and reasonably well maintained, and the claw and gacha style machines are what Round1 does better than most chain arcades. That said, individual claw machine plays run around four dollars, which adds up quickly if I am playing multiple rounds, and the tension on the machines is inconsistent enough that results feel more variable than skill based. The prize section near those machines tends to run warm compared to the rest of the floor. Racing games, fighting games, and photo booths fill out the rest of the arcade floor, and the overall variety was broad enough to keep my group occupied. Bowling is available but came with some caveats. The ball selection skewed toward smaller finger holes and very heavy options, with limited middle ground, so bringing my own ball would be worth considering if I bowled regularly. Party packages are available and include shoes and games, which streamlines the booking process for larger groups. For a casual group outing, birthday celebration, or evening with a mix of activities on offer, Round1 covers the bases adequately. Going in with realistic expectations about the cost per activity makes the experience more enjoyable. It is not a refined destination, but for what it is, it delivered a fun few hours.
