    Came here on a Friday night around 10:30 PM with a group of five. There was no wait. There were a lot of people sitting in the front lobby, although I think they might've been waiting for friends. We were greeted immediately and told that we could just come check in once our entire party was there. I saw people holding boba and snacks, and asked if we can bring our own food. Once the cashier said yes, we headed to 7-Eleven to come back with chips and drinks. I think there might be a corkage fee for alcoholic drinks, but I'm not sure. The space is beautiful, feels a bit like a nightclub with the way the lights are set up. The bathroom is clean. The rooms were spacious and in various sizes. This is probably the most high-tech karaoke spot I've ever been to. The browser to use YouTube was a bit laggy, but everything else was quick. There is Wi-Fi available. We didn't order any food or drinks from the menu, but there are a variety of options to choose from as well as a fridge and Chinese chips in the front that you can purchase. We stayed for two hours and it was $50 an hour. We ended up paying around $25 per person after service fee and tax. Overall, it was a chill place to spend time with friends, and the soundproofing from other rooms was not that bad. Given how easy everything was in terms of getting a room booked, bringing your own food, and choosing songs, I would definitely come back here!

    Had a great time here with friends! They have different price tiers from 1-5, then 6-8 people. You pay for the hour for the amount of people. It was an awesome experience. It's an easy check in when they walk you to the room, set up the machine to queue up song, and leave you to enjoy the room. The person at the front was easy to work with when our microphone died of battery. We had a blast singing songs in a well AC conditioned room! Would come again!

    Came in on a Wednesday around 9:15 PM and unfortunately had a pretty disappointing experience. Right from the start, the lady at the counter was unfriendly and gave us attitude. We asked for help turning up the volume, and while she did help, her demeanor made it feel like we were bothering her. We initially planned to stay for just one hour, but decided to extend. Before doing so, we confirmed with her about the happy hour deal (2 hours + 1 hour free), and she said it was fine. However, after two hours, she came back and told us we couldn't get the promotion because we brought drinks. This was never clearly explained upfront, and the inconsistency was frustrating. Overall, the customer service really brought down the experience. Clear communication and a better attitude would go a long way.

    Tv and extra instruments!

    Amazing spot with super helpful owners. The rooms are great, with a plethora of songs to pick from. Just keep in mind no alcohol served there, but you can bring your own! Highly recommend

    I never knew there was such a fun karaoke place in Milpitas! Love the wide range of hours and how you can bring your own food/drinks (for an additional fee). They had a lot of songs to queue, but also the Youtube option as well. Our mic died halfway but we were able to get a replacement super quick, and they had a variety of noise makers, environmental lights, and more!

    Had a great time celebrating my nieces 21st bday. This was the first time at a legit Karaoke spot. They allowed dogs so I was able to bring my English bulldog to the party, it wasn't too loud for him and well we all had a blast. The playlist is filled with more Asian artists but there is an option to connect to the YouTube karaoke playlist. Knowing that made the experience way more enjoyable. You can order (food wise) what they provide or you can bring outside food in for your party. The staff is welcoming and friendly and made the experience overall worth coming back to.

    Ask the Community - Pure Karaoke

    Can I use YouTube karaoke instead of the built in song book? Thanks

    Yes.

    1.) does this place charge by the hour or by the size of the room and/or number of guests? 2.) i read that there's no outside alcoholic beverages allowed, so does this place serve the alcoholic beverages inside? 3.) how many mics available per room?

    Charge by room size & time. No alcohol allowed here. 3 mics in the room.

    Do they have Vietnamese songs (new and old songs)? If not, can I use Youtube videos?

    I think so

    What kind of music/songs are available for karaoke?

    I wanna say it's optimized for either Japanese or Korean as those get updated the most frequently. English Chinese and others will definitely be there - mainstream current stuff probably, but some older classics might have weird song choices.

    Does this place have happy hour rate?

    Yes. Before 7pm and after 11pm it's happy hour.

    Do you allow outside food and beers?

    You can bring your own food and soft drinks, but no alcohol .

    Is Pure Karaoke open on Memorial Day?

    Yes.we open every day.

    Is $$/hour for a room or for each person?

    The rate is for the room, depending on the size of your party. They have small rooms (that can fit about 6 peoples) to large ones.

From the moment we got in, the vibes were great and the energy was perfect for a fun night out. One of the coolest parts was that they even have a small stage platform with a golden standing microphone, which made everything feel like a mini concert. It definitely leveled up the whole karaoke experience and got everyone hyped to perform. Huge shoutout to Jay, who took amazing care of us throughout the night. Super attentive, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The service was top-tier and made us feel really welcomed. Overall, we had an amazing time and would 100% come back.

They let you bring your own food and drinks and even provide ice and cups, which really sets them apart from other places. The karaoke system is great too, everything runs off YouTube, so the song selection is endless. Highly recommend this spot, and I'll definitely be back!

    The music room and bathroom were both clean. Audio quality is solid. However, after ruminating on…read morethe experience once we arrived home, several concerns became clear that ultimately deterred me from returning. Pricing was not straightforward or transparent. Upon arriving, we were told that all the rooms were booked and no follow up questions from their end. This remained the same throughout the entirety of the communication. I had to inquire all the questions, thinking I was asking the right ones to know prices and availability. I was wrong. With my questions, the answers I received were: 1) small room would take about 1 hour and 2) medium room would be about 40-45 minutes. Again, no follow up question from them whether which room we want, offering prices for each room, and asking if we wanted to put our name down. I only asked if the medium price would be the same as small, since we only had 2 people. That's something I should have reworded because what I actually wanted to know is how much would it be for 2 people--this was after 9:30 PM, for a medium room. I want to highlight that even though I am responsible for inquiries for clarification, a general rule also uniformly applies for businesses to be upfront with pricing and services for clarification. In short, that was completely absent throughout the interaction. We didn't know better, since we are not usuals at this establishment, which truly did feel that this was intentionally done to upcharge us. At the time, we chose convenience and said we would take whichever room--small or medium, as they stated--became available first. The medium room became available about 15 minutes after we had returned earlier to ask how to get on the "waitlist." Yet again, the process itself was never explained nor openly offered to us. We were informed of the $99/hour charge for the medium room only after being called up to the front desk/food station area, when the staff member was already writing the price on the receipt with a clipboard. This key detail should have been clearly disclosed at the very beginning of the first interaction--way before the signing at the desk to enter the room. My previous paragraphs can be referenced to this. Instead, signing and entering the room was processed as both the very first and final contact/confirmation. Thus, we weren't given any pricing and details prior until our name was called and came to the desk to sign. That is the primary issue: not disclosing the needed information well in advance until signing. Also, to their other review response --if there were management, then it could be with the person overseeing the computer, whom I directed the questions to. Like other reviewers have mentioned (which, in hindsight, we should have read more closely), there was a noticeable lack of transparency. We essentially had to ask every question ourselves in order to get basic information. Even then, the responses were brief and only addressed exactly what we asked--without offering additional context or details that would have helped us fully understand the pricing or process. And that in itself--is dishonest. Deceptive, too. Because of the lack of intent and transparency, we also weren't offered pricing information with the small room at any given point. So for those who wish to visit this establishment, be mindful of the highly, subtle deception. Perhaps you could try and ask directly for the pricing of each room, depending on head count, but who knows if they would provide information in all the extent needed for customers to make an informed decision. The medium room could fit 6-8 people maximum from our perception. The pricing on the website does not provide any room sizing price, or estimation. Just by head count, so essentially, we were being charged for the 9-10 people ($99/hr rate) that is listed on the webpage. Yes, here's the fine print from the website: "RATES & ROOM CAPACITY: The final rate will be based on either room size or total number of people, with the higher rate applied." If the $99/hr charge was purely due to the medium room size, as it did note that a "higher rate may apply," then that would have been understandable--if that information had been deliberately shared to us well in advance before signing. Even then, it becomes much more questionable since it seems that 6-8 people ($79/hr) could be accommodated in a medium size room. If so, then this was an upcharge, given all information had been nebulous. However, the issue I am pointing out here is the extreme lack of transparency and the involuntary manner in how the information was provided before signing. The general answers mentioned above were disclosed only when prompted by our questions, and even then the responses remained consistently evasive and limited. The quote above was already included in this original post. Read the latest response to see how they confirmed their own fradulence. Never was offered a large yet was given one and upcharged.

    Edit: While I appreciate the reply from the business owner, none of these points were communicated…read moreto me or my partner. In spite of multiple reviews warning of the exact same issue regarding predatory pricing, the fact that this continues to be an issue while policy is only clarified in the replies of Yelp business reviews means that there is no serious consideration to review feedback or address our concerns in any meaningful way. If the customer has to make multiple inquiries as to what the pricing structure is without any upfront information such as what the business owner provided, then that policy only exists in fine print as insurance for the business' benefit. This is especially true because in this case, you cannot find what the rate for a room is on their website, and this policy was never communicated at any point of our interaction. I could appreciate the fact that pricing was agreed upon before we signed and went to our room, but that's only because that singular piece of information was never conveyed beforehand and which would have given us the opportunity to make a different decision. Because of this, I actually now recommend people stay away from this establishment and take their money elsewhere. My partner and I had a very unpleasant experience from this place because we were up charged for a room for 8-10 people at the rate of $99/hr, in spite of there being lower rates for smaller groups at ~$70 or even lower (which are available on their website). However, this being our first time, we weren't made aware that there were different pricing tiers and were led to believe that there were only two rates available by room size alone from small to medium. We were told upfront that there would be an hour-long wait for a small room, so we wanted to take the next available room that came up, which was a "medium-sized room." I know we aren't usuals there and therefore a business-decision was probably made to give us the most expensive rate to extract the most value possible from an unsuspecting couple, I found the practice to leave a bad taste. Beware of being given false time estimates and rates by the man who works there. It was disappointing to be taken advantage of in this way, so we advise looking into their rates first before going into this place. I get that we shouldn't have expected to pay the rate for 1-2 people because we chose a bigger room, but it also doesn't justify getting led into paying more simply because we didn't know any better.
