    Quite a gem just outside of K-Town with a great public karaoke section and simply delicious delicious. This is my 2nd time here, and 2nd time celebrating a birthday here and it is such a good spot for big or small parties! They do have private rooms and quite a great selection, but the public space really is a great value of pay per song with a cash discount. As a karaoke bar, its great. Very good song selection, great karaoke tracks, and the volume is not too loud. Generally, the public area is a great hang and everyone is very supportive! As a bar with food, the drink selection is pretty good but the highlight is the imported beers on draft served ice cold. All the trappings of a karaoke bar closer to K-Town with really nice service. The food here really has no reason to be this good. I didn't eat my first time around, but made a point to test out the kitchen after multiple people proclaimed how good it was - and they were not lying. The chicken katsu curry was SO good. The fry on the chicken was so perfect and crunchy even covered in the curry. The curry wasnt too spicy, but had a great heat and the rice was heaping and the perfect compliment. Would come back here any time and will highly recommend to anyone who wants to celebrate a birthday here!

    Muses 35 is an incredibly unique experience within the vast and growing karaoke movement in NYC. From the moment you enter, there is something eclectic and futuristic of the space where you can sing your heart out, without any fee per song as a special on Sundays and Mondays. The assortments of wine, beer, and spirits is a lot more abundant and versatile than the average karaoke bar. The overall vibe is lovely, the karaoke isn't too loud, overpowering, nor dive bar-esque. I also appreciate how Muses 35 is tidy: compared to other karaoke places I've been to, I can say with complete joy there are no puddles and toilet paper flying everywhere in the bathrooms, rather very fancy and sweet smelling overall at Muses 35, with even the cutest mini shower caps for the karaoke mics, etc.! I also adore the spacious interior design, the fun arcade and gaming selections. options to sing at the bar alongside of fellow patrons or if you'd prefer going through a hallway that feels as if you're on a spaceship, you can reserve fabulous private rooms that are also designed exquisitely, also with professional grade mics, sound engineering, and a vibrant song selection. It was just as refreshing and moving to experience how kind and accommodating the bartenders and staff were: I was greeted with a warm smile, with exemplary customer service, offering me a glass of water, asking me if I'd like to put more songs in, I felt so taken care of here. I was so pleased that this establishment also had tasty food options, like the scrumptious chicken fried rice that helped give me a lil boost of energy at 9pm :) I overall felt so welcome and like I was a part of the Muses 35 family, with fellow patrons also so kind, praising and cheering everyone on. I definitely look forward to singing some karaoke bops sooner rather than later at Muses 35. I had truly such a wonderful, uplifting karaoke and dining experience. Thank you!

    Came here randomly to kill time before I got on my train & it was a kool experience, the place was totally empty at the time I came (which I didn't mind lol) I ordered a glass of Pinot Grigio & sat at the bar, had a convo with the owner/manager (I think) not sure if they served food but I doubt it. Good place to come back with a group of friends & have some fun.

    It was our first time visiting NYC and we were looking for a bar with a great atmosphere. We came upon MUSES and fell completely in love with it. Great ambiance, hosts, and bartenders! They have both private room karaoke and a karaoke bar. The drinks were great and so was the pricing. Overall, I can see this business flourishing, and hope to come back to it 10 years down the line. A must see if you're in NYC!!

    This wasn't a first choice.. or 2nd or 3rd either.. we had a little time to kill before a late night event we stopped into Muses because all the other spots on this block were filled with holiday partiers. So was Muses - lots of folks drinking and getting their song on. We grabbed a spot at the bar - service was a little slow and not overly friendly.. "SWEEETTT CARROOOLLINE.. bah BAH bah.. Good times never seemed so good!".. well, not quite, but it was decent enough. We ordered a couple of drinks - Asahi draft and a Gin Blossom for my friend. Not really interested in Karaoke, I was still trying to follow what was going on over the loud music and horrendous, drunken sing alongs (Not a place for conversation).."Maybe I'm just like my mother.. she's never satisfied...".. Yeah, that could be. The videos would sometimes play for some songs on the screens throughout the place. We order a couple of snacks - beef dumplings and korean seafood pancake. Which seemed to take forever to come out... "Waterloo! Waterloo! Finally facing my Waterloo! whoa whoa whoa..."... Yeah this wasn't the best version of either of these dishes. The dumplings while overstuffed were a bit overcooked and didn't taste all that good. The pancake was a bit greasy and would probably taste better after 3 or a dozen drinks. I noticed glassed enclosed "private" rooms, lots of brightly multi-colored LEDs, lounging area and the happy hour crowd started to dwindle as the night went on..."What doesn't kill you makes you STRONGER...".. yes indeed!

Amongst our group of 13 people, we all had issues connecting to the WiFi and the tv. I convinced the front desk to give us an iPad to manage the music and that also wasn't working. I called the guys to the room multiple times to troubleshoot and it still wasn't working. We fought with the technology throughout the whole 3 hour reservation which really made it difficult to enjoy the experience. During the times it was working, the app was glitchy and we had difficulties seeing the queue and skipping over songs. Also, one of the microphones was barely working. Additionally, before booking I inquired amongst a number of places to compare prices. We picked this place because we were told that there would be an assigned server to our room to allow us to enjoy the open bar experience and not have to step out to the bar to get drinks. Upon arriving, I was told that wasn't the case, even though it was in my email. After a lot of back and forth, they finally agreed to come serve to our room but there were still times I had to leave the room and chase them down. I have done karaoke many times and this was a very stressful experience.

The first time i came here, my cousin rented a room for karaoke for her bday and we brought bottles and ate before coming. It was about 8 of us. It's very affordable and we even got some more drinks in the lobby after. The second time my friend wanted to come for her birthday we had a much smaller room as it was only 5 of us. Same good experience your rent per person per hour and it's very affordable. The last time i came was for my bachelorette party. I didn't want the traditional vibes i wanted a night out with the girls and my cousin booked a party bus and time here. We got a huge room upstairs as it was more than 12 of us and we had a great time singing 80-90s and early 2000s music esp boy bands which are my favorite.

Definitely keep an eye out and find the sign that takes you to the stairs/elevator up to 32 Karaoke. This karaoke bar is a little more hidden, but absolutely a gem. When we discovered it the first time earlier in the year, we loved their BYOB model and blasted through an hour of time very quickly. Many drinks were had and many songs were song in a small group. I ended up coming back later in the year to celebrate my birthday and it was a fantastic time. Anyone who knows me knows I can span MANY genres in a karaoke session. The song choices were all there. Everything from "Don't go Breaking my Heart" to "Breaking Free" from High School Musical, to my signature "You Belong with Me" by Taylor Swift, to "Face Down" by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, to "Pink Pony Club" by Chappell Roan, to "Holding Out for a Hero" by Bonnie Tyler (from Shrek). All the options were there to satisfy the crowds. A few of my friends aren't even Karaoke people (my husband included) and we were able to get them in for one track. Truly some of the most fun nights had at 32 Karaoke. It's BYOB and can bring your own food, or purchase them at the front. Can't wait for a future get together and gathering at 32 Karaoke!
