The workers are very attentive. You can be a little bad by sneaking in some alcohol bought from 7 Eleven next door. The food is alright. Nothing great. You definitely can make a lot of noise with your friends in here. They're pretty lenient on sound. Bathroom is hard to find. You need to follow then sign and walk all the way to wherever it takes you. Its quite dirty though so I wouldn't suggest you pop a squat.

This is noteworthy in the sense that you can look up Bar Pacific and try to locate all their pubs- most of them are in run down locations or really out of the way areas. This has not stopped it from succeeding though- and I suspect it is for that specific reason, location; that has brought it so much success. It wouldn't take much to explain what bar pacific is- its a local bar where you will find that most of the clients are locals and young people who come here looking for a good deal; their beers are sold by set (half dozen) in line with local practice. Usually the entire place is filled with people playing dice games and drinking games of sorts. You will also find that this is not a place for a quiet chat or classy night out- its straight forward in terms of a grotty local bar that's cheap and convenient- its not pretending to be anything its not which is part of its charm. As tourists or expats I doubt you will come here as there really is nothing much in it for them- catntopop karaoke, the local drinking games. But if you are local and you want to go out for an authentic "tor dei" night out- then bar pacific will be the first and last thing you will remember.

Honestly, I'm not a fan of karaoke but when I have to go, I always go to Red MR…read more Karaoke is just not my type of thing, I understand a lot of people love to sing and have fun at the Karaoke room but I prefer singing in the shower and having fun at a club. Although, I have to admit that doing karaoke is great for a large group of friends and popping bottles at a Karaoke room is way cheaper than at a club. So, why Red MR but not other Karaoke places? One crucial reason is that they have a lot more and new English songs than the others. They features a lot of western singers, like Lana Del Rey, Snoop Dog, Adele, P!nk, David Guetta and more. Their selection of songs gives me a reason to go back every time. Beside, they serve really decent food at Red MR. I still remember my first time going to a Karaoke place and had a disgustingly greasy, tasteless fried rice. That was such an unpleasant and disgraceful experience and that completely ruined my impression of a Karaoke place. I swear I'm not going back to that Karaoke place anymore because their food simply sucks. However, Red MR is a very good surprise. They have a lovely menu featuring Japanese food, like skewers and ramen. Don't expect anything authentic but they are otherwise good with a very reasonable price. All in all, if you fancy a karaoke night, Red MR is the place to go .

Review #3,500: When…read moreNathan Left (彌敦左岸) opened up in TST along Hart's lively nightlife road, I was super pessimistic at best. Who was Nathan and why did he leave? Is this another gwai lo bar taking over the local grime and pubs from yesteryear? Since I lived right around the corner, I figured it was important to see what the deal was. Here's the deal: This place is awesome and over the past 2 years, I've become a regular. Of the M1 nightlife establishments, Nathan Left is certainly the most unique. The exterior features a classic Hollywood marquee sign, along with open door seating at their downstairs pub where there is just enough room for people to enjoy a view out on the street while drinking a pint. The second floor, where a majority of the people are is stunning from a decor standpoint. It is mainly a lounge with very contemporary decor pieces and dynamic ones that change in from night in to night out (depending on their theme) along with tables, a stage, a classy bar, and a performing stage. Hidden in the back are pool tables, a karaoke room, and even beer pong. When I say I was blown away by the place, I was even more taken aback when I came back on different nights and the interior was transformed. One night was for a movie night and it was 1920s flapper party and the next night it was b-boys, big beats, and a hell of a hip hop night. For most other nights, it's a showcase of some of the best Filipino cover bands one can find. The menu is mainly a mix of western food, which like any M1 spots are typically grossly overpriced and typically mediocre. I was however, impressed at some of the items, such as their "wurst" sausage variety, and even their $650HKD steak which was exactly how I wanted it -- medium rare. Even I was surprised when I found their hamburgers and pizza to be strangely tasty. Despite all of this, I'd still opt for their drinks more than anything. The drinks are standard, but well done. There is a pretty solid selection of whiskey, and some beers on tap. It's not the most extensive selection of alcohol by any means, but it'll more than do the job for people who can order typical cocktails. The staff is young, professional, and very multilingual. My first few visits here were taken care of by Jordan, who despite looking like a fella from Ireland, was in fact a Hong Kong native and mercilessly trolling folks with his flawless Cantonese. The same for the gorgeous Zasha, who served every drink with a smile. Or absurdly friendly Jerome, who knew exactly how to get the party started. Finally, the manager Tony would give a hearty handshake to his regulars every time they entered / exited the joint. It seems like a moot point by now, but this really was my nightlife home away from home. It was a fun occasion any night of the week, a great place for a date, group fun, or a solo drinking session. And finally, an awesome place to listen to quality music and indulge in great company.

Had a GREAT time at Nathan Left. We were in from the States on the last leg of a vacation to a few…read moredifferent countries in Asia, and were lucky enough to have someone local showing us around. This bar is a gem, with an extensive and detailed drinks menu that includes classic speakeasy cocktails, a diverse selection of beers (for Hong Kong), and even WINE that won't break the bank, a welcome sight for westerners longing for a glass of vino after enduring the usually devastating wine prices in Asia. The real reason to come, however, are the cover bands. This bar makes more than adequate use of its upstairs space to host spectacular cover bands that will truly play you any song in the world. My understanding is that this is not that weird a thing in Hong Kong but for westerners it's pretty magical, so that is my lived experience. Decor is fun, eclectic and cozy. Ample seating upstairs even when busy.
