I went here with my wife and my friend who was visiting. We were Atlantic City for the day and wanted to do karaoke. We saw this spot and figured we'd give it a try. When I got there, they had a sign inside that said "no cover charge," but when we went up to the door, it was a $5 charge to get in. Then when you are inside, then you want to sign up for a song, they charge you $2 per song! Everywhere I went it was free to sign up for karaoke. I didn't even bother ordering drinks with how much money I already spent just to get in and sign up. The one good thing I will say, the crowd in the atmosphere was very great. People there were very nice and very supportive when you're on stage. But there's better places to go for karaoke where you won't get charged consistently for everything. read more

Planet Rose Karaoke Bar - Stage - Lounges Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

We were at Atlantic City on a Sunday night and there wasn't much opened but Planet Rose had a spot on stage with my name on it. I have been to the Plant Rose in New York and I had a good time there but the one here is bigger and has a stage unlike the one in New York. The drinking menu was decent but all I had all night was their strong jello shots. That came me enough courage to go on stage and sing Bon Jovi's "It's My Life" and even thoug I'm a terrible singer, the audience was so encouraging and sang along. I waited 30 minutes before it was my turn to sing but everyone who sang was so entertaining. The only service that there was came from the bar but the bartender was very friendly and quick in making drinks. I can't wait to go again for the next time I'm at Atlantic City. read more

what a dump! they charge you per song. never in my life have i been charged per song. go anywhere else!

I love Tropicana. it's my favorite resort in AC. Unfortunately, an employee at Planet Rose named Bobby, who holds himself out as the manager/bartender, is HORRIBLE. Bobby is Rude and disrespectful to well paying customers. Bobby is not good for business, Bobby's idea of customer service is to advise a cash paying customer in good standing to " hire an attorney & file a lawsuit" to sue Planet Rose. Bobby should not be the manager bc he has no concept of customer service. There is a common practice at Planet Rose of taking half full drinks off the table as soon as a patron gets up to use the bathroom or pay for a kareohe song, This has happened to me on more than one occasion. I get up to go to bathroom or pay for a song & upon my return to my table, my drink is gone. Usually I won't complain & just buy another drink but today, my drink was mostly full. This is a disingenuous tactic used to force patrons to buy more drinks. Upon informaction & belief, Bobby, the manager of Planet Rose cares more about making money on drinks & under age admissions then he cares about following the law regarding the legal age to enter a club that serves alcohol. Bobby needs to be fired before he causes a lawsuit against Planet Rose Kareoke, AC. read more

LOVE the eclectic decor and vibe of Planet Rose! We were too early & literally the only ones there. Joey got one drink and me, a rose. Bartender Lisa was friendly and cool. We hear toy have to pay $2 per song you opt to sing. We'll check it out in the future. read more

Overcrowded so much so it's a fire hazard. Above occupancy limit. People visibly intoxicated way above the limit. I can only imagine people leaving there and driving home and getting into a car accident and killing somebody. read more

this place was fun, karaoke all night. Drinks were good, there's a cover here too. Nice bartenders, good time.

When looking for a karaoke bar in the area, I asked an Uber driver what he recommends. He immediately named Planet Rose, so I had to check it out! This bar is situated inside Tropicana on the third floor, I believe. When in doubt, there is a directory to help you find your way to it! When walking into the bar, we were greeted with a welcoming bouncer. There was no cover charge, but we were the only ones there; it seemed they were preparing for a $5 cover. Eventually, we got the courage to karaoke but learned you have to pay $2 per song you want to sing. This was a little bit of a bummer, but it didn't stop us! Also, it's important to note that there is a $5 minimum to use a card. There were also signs on the tables advertising that there was a 1 drink minimum...so I guess you can't just come to hang out? (Again, not a problem for me but something that is important to note) All in all, I had a good experience here. I can say I wasn't expecting all the little "rules" and charges, but I get that it's the way of a touristy area! read more

I'm a fan. The family and I celebrated my mom's 50th birthday here. My mom wanted to do something a bit more fun than a stuffy dinner and this place definitely met her expectations. My dad booked the small private room and table along the wall for about 25 to 30 of our family and friends to come and celebrate my mom's 50th birthday. The bartender was very nice and extremely helpful and the host was hilarious. Some of the other patrons were hilarious and made the night more interesting as well. My only complaint is that the couches and carpet are very grungy. They really need a good cleaning. Overall the experience was great and we'll be back. read more

Went into this place at the Tropicana Atlantic City. We were charged $5.00 cover charge, paid $9.00 for beers and $8.00 for mix drinks which was served in what appeared to be a 7 oz cup full of ice. Those who wished to sing had to pay an additional $2.00 per song. I didn't get the cover charge if this place solely relies on its patrons to be the entertainment. We were very disappointed and will never reccomend this overpriced, overrated place to anyone. read more

2 Stars? Whhhaaaaaa? But the cranberry juice was only $3! Got here at like 2:30 AM and the place was bumpin'. If you're not in the mood to get date raped at a club, this is the place for you my friends! It had a very rockerish' vibe...like a place where biker gangs would hang out, but (white) dudes were singing 90's hip hop and Britney Spears songs on stage. Dope. Two mics and they were both wireless. Wireless. Which is awesome if you like to work the crowd with your vocal magic. The song book was also massive. No Misfits songs though. I did however spot some Broadway musicals. read more

What an amazing experience!! Planet Rose was soooo much fun!! Everything was exceptional! The bartenders and wait staff were so fantastic! It was crowded and we never had to wait more then 2 minutes for a drink! The DJ was fun and got the room pumped!! Even the bad singers were encouraged! The manager Matt also helped the staff and was very positive and friendly! I would highly recommend Planet Rose! read more

Who knew this place even existed?! A really fun and laid back karaoke bar hidden in the back of the Trop. The staff keeps the party going and if you are brave enough to sing you will be doing so to a supportive audience. Yes there is a $5 cover. Not sure why but still there was a nice sized crowd. Planet Rose closes at 2 so get your song on early. read more

There's a reason this place has the reviews it has. Came in on Friday Night on Memorial Day weekend. I'm literally sitting here as I type this. The "bouncer" told us there was a one drink minimum for karaoke. Once inside we were told songs were $2 each unless you bought two well drinks. But wait - they don't tell you the drinks have to be over $8. So my rum and coke didn't count. The bartender was extremely rude. If everything else is dead - it's not worth ending up here. Also, my friend put her drink on the bar for 2 seconds and the bartender took it and threw it away. When she inquired about it he gave her attitude. read more

Awesome little bar and really fun karaoke! Went there for my sister in laws 30th and we all had a really good time. Here's the kicker... I accidentally left my id and debit card with the bartender and couldn't come back to Atlantic City to get it... They were super helpful and kind through the process of getting it back to me. They even threw in some pins and two complimentary passes in too. All around a great experience. If you're in the Tropicana, definitely stop by Planet Rose. Thanks guys! read more

My wife and I had a great night out here. A little taken back by the cover charge and song fee, but the atmosphere was really fun. Crowd was high energy with a mix of great singers and those with "plenty of gusto." :) Felt the bartender was very nice and accommodating. The Emcee was great at keeping the energy high and mood lively. The staff dealt with the inebriated and enthusiastic well. We had a great time for like 3-4 hours here! read more

Not worth it! They said unlimited karaoke on the door (nye), 10 dollars entrance and 1 drink minimum and you need to pay for every song?! No thanks read more

You can always tell when the management of a place finally gets a look at their Yelp reviews. All of a sudden, stellar 4-and-5-star reviews start popping up in quick succession from "Yelpers" with only one review and no picture. We're not stupid, Planet Rose. I've been a few times, so here's the real deal on this place: The staff, crowds, and DJ are not awesome. Like at all. Paying to sing karaoke is ludicrous in the first place, but paying to WAIT an inordinate amount of time to sing karaoke is insulting. And if you're a male who is not a total toolbag, or a female who is only average looking and/or not stupid drunk, don't expect to sing your song before your next birthday. I don't mind there being a cover to get in, but the bouncers always seem to have some overexaggerated need to prove their manliness. You know what Freud would say about that one... The drinks I've had there have been really weak. It sucks, cause this place has the potential to be a lot of fun. If you can convince four other people to waste their time and money for the night, the private rooms are definitely the way to go. Otherwise, you probably don't even need to be in Tropicana at all. read more

Prob would have had a good time, but the bouncer was a huge problem. Arrived with a party of four, and he demanded to search our girls' bags for weapons, while casually placing it hands on their arms and sides at will. Kind of lame, but we put up with because we thought it might be a cool place. His unwarranted search resulting in his refusal of admission while one girl still had a water bottle (since when is this a problem)? So we ditched the water bottle, and he then begins an incohorrent rant about the loss of chivalry while poking me with my own license. Long story short, I swiped my license from his hand, called for my group, and we bailed to the (much cooler) 40's bar. It's just crazy how their bouncer was actively annoying would-be patrons. read more

My friend, the bride wanted to do private room karaoke here for the second evening of her Bachelorette getaway, and so this review reflects that. I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend, if you're in a group of at least five, that you look into booking the private room. It is SO much fun, and way better than being outside in the bar (especially from what we observed). Anyway, the private room comes equipped with your own cocktail waitress, a 'bouncer' (at one point, some idiot couple came in trying to sit down with us, and he got tem out of there post stat). It is $10 per person, per hour, and we were able to get this place for 2 hours, and then when we realized that we didn't really want to go any where, and were having way too much fun in our own group, we were able to get another hour. The private room is equipped with a half circle bench/couch, tables, and a very easy to use karaoke system that lets you punch in your song selections and reserve songs, so you can go non-stop. There are two mics, and even though it is private, there are windows for everyone to look in (and who wouldn't want to look in on a group of 11 fabulous girls, half of us rocking killer tats, screaming/singing our hearts out, and jumping and dancing on sofas??) but it is soundproof, so really you can get lit, sing til your hearts content, and amuse yourselves (and everyone outside!) for a reasonable amount of money. If you're looking for a fun alternative during an AC weekend, I highly suggest looking into booking the private room for your group. read more

We love karaoke. This bar is cool. Great song selection. Decent sound system. However we are here right now on a Saturday night and we think the karaoke host is the worst host we've ever seen. Completely unorganized. Totally more concerned with playing regular music in between singers. Can't get anyone's attention to tell singers it's their turn. He's ruining the night. After more time here we are downgrading our review. This place sucks. read more

This place is a mess. Why the hell would a HOST sing with you without asking. Its so disrespectful and at 2 dollars a song, criminal. In response to the comment below: 1- im from NYC and the going rate is about $1 in most places. Now a days, most places will GIVE you a song for every drink you buy. 2- im sure the MC and DJ bring a lot of charm for customers. I, however, did not want their help. I did not ask for their help. I paid to sing for myself and if i wanted a duet, id make the DJ pay me a dollar back. read more

Went here on a girls night out in A.C. Using the free night stay at harrahs compliments to yelp :-) Now see I am the kareooke queen... Been to a million places and sang probably a million songs in em'... This place was a bit of a joke compared to most of them... Huge selection of songs...crap sound system.. Also not a fan of paying per song ...$2 to be exact, but still when you are the songbird of your generation this just doesn't fly..how am I supposed to put a monetary cap on the mount of songs I can sing in one night?!!! I can't..I just can't ... Secondly, they had a one drink minimum, that was heavily enforced. I mean maybe bc it was midweek and the place had like 10 people in it? But still this was the third bar of my evening I didn't want anymore drinks! Atmosphere is cheezy yet modern and brodway-ish , newspaper wall paper, pics of marilyn, lips and zebra print, wowza it was a busy combo.. All in all it was fun not sure if I would go there again though... read more

I always make sure to stop here. on the weekends its $5 to get in which can be an annoying, $2 a song to sing, but they have aloooot of songs. The hostess is usually a riot. Theres only one private room. so when you sing..youre up for judgement. bathrooms are disgusting but at least they have private ones. Drinks are moderately priced--if you come during the week this is not a cover, but a one drink min. read more

This is truly the more exciting bar I've ever been to. The bartenders were absolutely incredible. Nicole was our primary bartender and I honestly hope I see her every single time I come down to AC. This was one of the best nights I've had in a long time. read more

No stars? Is that an option?? There on a friday. The "host" sang with evryone, wanted or unwanted. You have to pay $2 bucks per song, why is the host joining in?? He was ruining songs. Make the songs free, if it's a showcase for your host's vocal range. Next. I don't even know how to explain what we experienced. The "host" kept asking the men, in the crowd to do a dance where they grabbed their crotch aggressively at women. Anytime a female sang, they were met with a 3-5 men in a circle, grabbing their crotches at them. When we asked them to move back, so we could dance to our friends song, the boys told us they could do what they want. Very strange. Why are these men, in a bar, aggressively grabbing their crotch towards the women??? It's a karaoke bar!!!!???? SO bizarre. SO. I don't think it's much to ask, to not have men grabbing their private parts at me, when out at a popular bar. WHY!! If someone did this to me in public, it would not be cool read more

I visited Planet Rose this past weekend. The door person was very nice and welcoming. It's a very small establishment and has a single private karaoke room that you can rent by the hour. There is a one drink per person minimum which is different, but not terrible. What surprised me is they charge $2/song for karaoke and they have a book of songs. Their system isn't digital/internet based. This leaves some restrictions when it comes to artists/songs. The karaoke host didn't seem as personable as the rest of the staff? They definitely weren't rude, just not as personable. The woman sanitizing the mics and prepping singers was great! The bathrooms weren't that clean and needed some repairs. My group and I had a great time. Overall, the people coming in were fun, supportive, and had good energy. I overheard a few jerks complaining to staff about cleaning/sanitizing the private karaoke room, "wait time," and a couple other minute things. I think staff handled the situations well and there will always be jerk patrons (especially drunks at a casino). read more

We got here around 1am after all my friends were drunk. You know the drill. You're all looking for something to do after the clubs, all the girls feet are killing them in their heels, half are barefoot, and one says "OhmyGOD, lets go sing karaoke, you guys!", as if any of them are in any condition to sing anything, whatsoever :-) Yeah it was that kind of night. Planet Rose is awesome. Drinks are especially cheap after midnight here, and the entertainment can't be beat. Great times! read more

The place is okay at best. I was confused on the dive/punk bar aspect, but felt like I was in more of a club as soon as I walked in. It was whatever cause the bartenders were nice and the MC for karaoke was hilarious. I wish they had a better beer selection ( hell even PBR would of been awesome). Still, singing karaoke with a rambunctious/funny crowd was a good time. read more

Planet Rose Karaoke Bar - A leather jacket with an obscure grindcore band on it?! - Lounges Near Me - Atlantic City, New Jersey

i ranked it as NOT GOOD because couldn't go any lower. There for my fiances birthday and wanted to sing for her. First time here. It was a planned stop in the night. Everything was fine until........ after sitting for over an hour waiting to be called and watching repeat patrons, I approached the counter. Young girl. nice. no qualms. asked where i stood in que. 4th. well another 30/40 minutes go by and i go back to counter. now i'm at the bottom of the list. at this point it was "shown to me" by the Manager (heh) reference to a small picture on the side wall). was then informed that people can pay to cut the line (call it whatever you want). Understood. common place. However, there should be some limitation to how many times a PAYING customer (albeit $2) gets kidded to the side. I can slam a couple of people especially the manager (heh). Someone needs to train the staff in 1) recognizing not everyone has been there before 2) explain everything when asked a question not just its "$2 a song" and 3) get someone with experience and customer service background to manage the business. I recognize this review will go nowhere. but if the owners should see this.... I would have terminated 2 of the staff last night. Im in the business. read more

I went for my birthday earlier this year and had the time of my life! I bought the two drink special and was able to sing with it. I love the atmosphere as it seems that there are not many crowds and private rooms took over. I'm coming again this weekend and of course I recommended to come to Planet Rose for BOTH nights I'm back this weekend. read more

It's ok. Nothing spectacular but can be pretty fun laughing and singing along with others. I thought it strange to pay $2 for each song you want to sing, and the wait is super long if you don't pay more to be bumped up. We came for my birthday and although I got free admission for my special day, we basically waited until close (3-4 hours since we got there a little after midnight) for our turn although they said it was only an hour wait. Overall it was a pretty fun time but I'm on the fence about coming back.. read more

While in AC, we saw from the little hotel book from the Trop that there is a karaoke bar. My friend and I were super excited, except my fiance and my friend's husband were like "are you girls seriously doing karaoke?". Well, after doing 3 shots of washington apple and 2 vodka beverages, OH YES WE ARE DOING KARAOKE. We went to Planet Rose, and walked right up to the DJ. He seemed cool at first, my friend and I were flipping through the songbooks, and he introduced himself to us as "K". We realized that it is $2.00 per song and you have the option to "bump" yourself up the line by a certain amount of spots for a certain price. This is a little ridiculous... I have never "paid" for karaoke EVER. K even admitted that they want customers to buy lots to drink, that's why they sometimes delay their songs so the longer they wait, the more drinks they buy. After giving me and my friend a little bit of a hard time (can't really read him, don't know if he was trying to be funny, or if he really is an a-hole), he took our money and song slips. We proceed to head over closer to the "stage" area and there were definitely more males than females there. However, there were a group of women toward the front of the stage, and some of them are very nice and chatty. Our first song came on shortly, we sang and got some cheers. The crowd was very friendly and supportive, which is why I gave this place 2 stars instead of 1. There were a few regulars I can tell, and one of them is some guy who looks like Wayne Brady but 30lbs heavier. He was in a suit and was introducing himself as "the one and only"... *gag* After not being up on stage for a long stretch, we went to harrass K about the order... how come some people are up twice before we went on again? He lets us go on again but not without putting up a little fight. Later on the Wayne Brady Look-a-like was hitting on me and my friend, which I find disturbing. We were nice about it though, but still wasn't cool as our men were right around the corner! K started slacking on the rotation, and I have had enough of the creepy men in the place so it was time to peace out. Will I return? I'll let you know the next time I'm there! read more

This place has potential but it's kind of BS that you have to pay to sing just to have the host sing over you. I've always thought that a host's mic should be off while someone is singing, and he shouldn't be talking or singing into it while someone is performing. Really annoying. It wasn't so bad with us, but really bad with other performers and they looked disappointed. If you are paying to skip over someone, be sure to ask the price because the prices on the sign are wrong (it's a paper printout that would take all of 5 seconds to fix). Also, the private room has some sound issues. Whenever we used both mics we had horrible feedback issues and no one was able to fix it for us. read more

Before covid this place rocked! After Covid, we'll you can see what happened. Charging 5$ on a Monday night to enter when a birthday party came in. Not the best move. Then they charge you $2 each song. Very messed up. The vibe is good depending on who's there. But if there was not a birthday party last night. This place would've been more dead then the terrible sound Bouncing off the small walls. I had a great time because I love singing. If your looking to just sing.
