Such a cute little pub/bar! Came here after dinner with friends to sing karaoke. The parking lot is tiny, but we were able to get a spot via $5 valet. We sat at the bar for a bit before requesting a room and I saw a lot of large groups enjoying their saturday night. They have a few large flat screens that was playing football, though I'm not sure who the teams were since I wasn't paying attention. Not sure if the early crowd (720pm) was there to watch the game or to start their night early. After chatting at the bar, we went into our karaoke room (room 10), the only karaoke room on the first floor. The room was fairly hot, the AC was not circulating properly, but other than that we enjoyed our time. We left the room around 9:45pm and was shocked at how packed the place got! If this place was closer, I would definitely would have been a regular. Would definitely be open to coming back here to try their food. read more

Star Night - Karaoke Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Pochas in Ktown are probably as plentiful as stars in the sky, but @starnight.la consistently remains my favorite spot to hang out and eat late at night with my friends! With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, popping music, a very affordable karaoke room, and an extensive menu consisting of Korean comfort foods, soju/beers, and handcrafted slushee cocktails, this spot is definitely perfect to stop by for a fun outing with friends. Service is always so kind and attentive (even when they're completely full), and they're always happy to grill/cook our food table-side and bring any extra condiments, bowls, and utensils out. Definitely check them out for a good time + good eats if you're in the Koreatown area! Featured here: Korean army stew pork bbq grill Vegas pool party read more

There's been so many countless times when I've passed by this spot while driving on Wilshire, and the name and the star decorations on the building never fail to catch my eye. It tends to get super busy on the weekends so I was happy that I was able to find some availability in my schedule and finally try this spot out. If you're looking for a spot with good vibes to catch up and hang out with friends and family, then Star Night is up your alley. They have one of the best outdoor ambience in KTOWN, Los Angeles, and it's even prettier at night with all the colorful lights. They serve tasty Korean pub food and they also have karaoke rooms for you to channel your inner Beyonce. Need some alcohol to unleash that inner Beyonce? Not a problem ,because they have a full alcohol license so they got hard liquor, cocktails, soju, beer and more! I thought that was pretty cool because usually Korean pubs/bars only serve soju, soju cocktails and/or beer. || L O C A T I O N / P A R K I N G || -Cross Streets are Wilshire Blvd & S Manhattan Pl. -Valet Parking (limited spots) or Street Parking -Try to get there as soon as they open or when the valet parking lot is still relatively empty so you can snag a parking spot. I would recommend parking on the right side (reference: facing the restaurant's entrance) so you don't need to wait for other cars to pull out to get out of the lot. || F O O D / D R I N K S || Pork BBQ Platter - Highly recommend if you're planning to share food with friends/family. It's a decent portion and it comes with pork belly, sausage, corn cheese, steamed egg and kimchi. The juicy pork belly was definitely the star of this platter because these were gone as soon as they were cooked and ready to eaten. Fish Cake Soup - Broth was so yummy especially after screaming our hearts out at the karaoke rooms. I liked how the broth wasn't overly salty. There was quite a good amount of fish cakes too! Pan Fried Octopus - Our server recommended my group to add some noodles on the side and I'm so glad we went with that suggestion because the octopus and sauce was so flavorful, the noodles helped soak up the flavor. I also liked that you could actually see and taste the octopus. I feel like most places that serve octopus dishes are stingy but that isn't the case here. Corn Cheese - I didn't realize the pork bbq platter already came with corn cheese but since I love corn cheese, I didn't mind ordering a separate plate just for it. It was quite cheesy and I honestly was fine with that! Star Night Special - such a pretty drink with all the layers! Quite tasty and addicting Vegas Pool Party - alcohol slushy time! I liked how they incorporated sour patch kids but do note that if your candy is in the drink for a long time, the candy will harden and it may be difficult to get to the candy! read more

Solid spot for a Korean pocha type of vibe. Beer, soju, and lots of Korean bar foods like fried chicken, spicy wings, sizzling plates of gopchang, spicy octopus, pork and tofu, etc. while sitting on these canister stools. This place gets packed on the weekends but it was pretty empty on a Thursday night which was great since our party gets loud and obnoxious. Service was good, the waiters were able to keep us stocked as more of our friends arrived and we needed to order more drinks. They do have a small parking lot that is valet only if you don't want to look for street parking. read more

|[ a d i f f b e a r ]| My friends craved the old ob bear so we decided to come try and see if it's comparable. While the flavor of the panfried seafood was okay and decent, the undercooked rice cakes (at least on our visit) really messed the dish up for me. IMO a squishy and nicely cooked rice cake makes this dish good and without it makes this a 2.5/5. |[ o t h e r f o o d s ]| Kimchi fried rice 3.75/5 - fried rice really good but portion smaller than I'd like. The side salad was underwhelming imo and I'd prefer if they just made the fried rice portion bigger and/or put a better side with it. Fish cake soup 4/5 - prob my fav dish, soup was v flavorful with lots of fish cakes! The egg is also a nice touch. Decent portion size enough to share w a few people. |[ n o t e s ]| Has potential, would love to see improvements (see above). Cute relaxing interior, quick efficient service. Valet parking $5. read more

Star Night - Karaoke Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This was my first time exploring K-town and this spot is definitely a vibe!! The parking is tight but valet is only $5 so worth it to me. The outside is super cute & there is karaoke upstairs I need to go back someday to try. For a Friday night we were seated quickly & waiters were friendly! If you're looking for a place to drink with a large group then this spot is it for sure. It's really great with friends, because it's poppin it's usually loud ish in there but fun! As for the food I wouldn't say I have had much Korean to compare it to. I will say it was mostly tasty but some were interesting textures and tastes. I like trying new things so I just have to figure out what's for me! Overall I will definitely go back with friends for more soju & try other dishes! read more

Super cute and vibey pocha in ktown!! When you walk in and get seated at the outdoor patio, it feels like you're on a rooftop and I love the open ceiling, perfect for a warm summer night. We got soju + beer, fish cake stew and bbq pork grill and this could have fed a party of 4. Everything was around $100 which is such a steal and I left feeling so content and stuffed. Really enjoyed dining here and will be back. read more

Service - came in right when it opened and were the only group there for awhile. Service for food and drinks was fast; drinks were cold and food was piping hot. Parking - they have valet parking for $5 (worth it in my opinion given the area). Food - ordered the fried chicken, garlic fries, fried shrimp, and the kimchi/pork/tofu dish. Everything was good, although the shrimp was just ok. Would definitely get the other three again. Everything was well seasoned and fresh. This place is also walking distance to some dessert spots and an H Mart! The vibe is pretty chill and they offer a full bar, including soju, sake, and beer on tap. Definitely worth a visit if you're in K-Town. read more

Parking: street parking or valet parking ($5). The area isn't as well kept. Would consider valet parking unless you're leaving the restaurant before sunset. Service: we went on a weekend at 5:40ish. It wasn't busy and we were seated immediately. Pretty spacious. Food: get the wings. The sauce is on the side. Very crispy and would get again. The pork bbq platter was good but not a lot of meat. Would get again if ppl in my group wanted it but the price for the dish isn't as worth. There are certain happy hours/lunch specials read more

Ktown Gastropub best for drinking groups due to large portions and drinking atmosphere. But can be good for a couple too but not as an individual. Indoor outdoor feel. Octopus with thin noodles was great!! Avoid the fried rice. Looking forward to trying next time: Their popular and raved about OG Bear Chicken Wings, and other dishes like intestine, meatball pancake (avoid seafood one), fish cake soup, blood sausage, squid tempura, and more!! We visited in our younger precovid days, yearrrrsss ago. Back again, and it's still a tasty and fun atmosphere. Part of ktown nightlife of eating and drinking. Luckily still not full on touristy, and non-Koreans have not taken over. We visited as a couple on a Saturday winter night almost 11pm for dinner #2 (we didn't get full from the fancy kbbq Jeong Yuk Jeom we didn't like)? This place is just a walk/block down. It was packed but we luckily got a table without waiting. No bar seating, just tables available when we went? Maybe they close down bar seating at times? The round table we got looks like it could fit 2-5ppl comfortably. Heat lamps all around. Large portion foods to share. They have to-go boxes for leftovers. Midway through dining, most people were leaving (around 1130pm?). Staff are friendly to also non-Koreans. English is understood. We over ordered because I just tend to want variety. But variety is difficult and pricey with just a party of 2. Would love to come back with certain friends who are willing to eat korean comfort dishes I like too. $25.99 #8. Pan Fried Spicy Octopus + $3 thin noodles - Spicy!!! Looks like a lot of noodles but that sauce is packed with flavor and is enough to flavor your noodles. - more than enough for 2 people. $17.99 #48. Kimchi Fried Rice - Sadly, not good. Very bland. Comes with cabbage salad with what looks like thousand island dressing on it. - good enough for 2 people. $16.99 Soju (Chamisul Fresh) - Popular flavor. We usually don't like flavor ones. read more

Solid place to eat and drink with friends. When I found out that OB Bear food was here I knew I had to come for their KFC wings. Their wings are still my favorite in Ktown. Crispy on the outside juicey in the inside. We also ordered: ( Good size portion on all dishes) Spicy Pan Fried Squid- This was also great. The squid was tender and flavorful. Combination Pancake and Seafood Pancake- I thought these were ok. Not much taste in the seafood pancake the combination pancake were better. Make sure you ask for extra dipping sauce. Budae Jjigae ( Army Stew) w/ extra Spam- No better way to end the night with all the drinking. This soup also hit the spot. Service- this was great for a Tuesday night. Parking- street ( read the sign carefully)or valet ($5) Overall happy to see OB Bear KFC here at Star Night. read more

Came here on a Thursday night and we were seated right away without waiting! This is a great place to hold large groups. You can street park or do the $5 valet parking which isn't too bad. The outdoor seating was so spacious and the fairy lights really brought a chill and aesthetic vibe to this place. Their menu is pretty expansive for a pocha. We got the fried chicken wings, corn cheese, seafood pancake, and kimchi and tofu. However the star of the night was the fried chicken wings - super hot and fresh. I just wish they had the sauce on the side but they ran out. The waiters were all super attentive to our group. They were quick to bring us anything we needed - utensils, plates, water, etc. read more

Such an amazing little spot. We did a day celebration and we were sad to see that the majority of karaoke spots didn't open until 6 or 7. We ended up here because it was the first one open and we are happy we came here. We got the "small room" which easily fit the six of us and had enough seating to maybe fit another five comfortably. The music selection feels endless and the food!! The food was delicious. Their wings are a must try. They have a doorbell that alerts your server so you can place orders without having to leave. They bring everything piping hot or nice and cold for the drinks. Definitely a place I'd go back to. read more

Service was good. The bar food was also delicious. We got the clam soup with bean sprouts. It was perfect for the night. The soup is large and stays hot in the grill. It was perfect for the cold night. We also got the garlic fries and that came out hot and crispy. Overall, we had a great time here. There's a valet or street parking. read more

Solid place to grab a meal with your friends! It's mostly an outdoor location with a few indoor spots inside near the bar area. Service was fast and attentive. There's a button on each table to call the server whenever you need to. For a party of 3, we ordered 2 dishes: 1) Stir fry squid (not octopus) and somen noodles added for (+$3)- this is a staple whenever I come here! It had a nice kick of heat to it and was tolerable especially after you mix it well with the somen noodles. It also had slices of rice cakes, zucchini, onion and jalapeño. Savory, saucy, slightly sweet with a perfect amount of spice. 2) Fried chicken wings w/ dipping sauce on the side- perfectly crispy and juicy. Also comes with a side of cabbage salad and pickled radish which cuts through the grease perfectly. The sauce on the side reminds me of sweet chili. Cons: they don't serve water for free. They have bottled water (Kirkland brand) which they sell for $0.25. Also it is mostly valet only for $5. There is metered parking but usually always filled up. read more

3.5/5 Came here for drinks and a late dinner around 9pm. We were seated right away without any wait. We did family style and shared the large fried chicken, squid tempura, and the seafood pancake amongst 4 people. The portion sizes were so large that we couldn't finish everything. The fried chicken was pretty tasty, but the chicken itself was kind of dry. The squid tempura was surprisingly good because the squid pieces were large. The fried batter makes it hard to eat a lot of it at a time. The seafood pancake was pretty good, but on the greasy side. I think my favorite was the squid tempura (mainly because I enjoyed the squid pieces). I overall enjoyed the meal, and drinking soju definitely helps to make the food taste better lol read more

This review is strictly for the karaoke. Would 100% recommend! We got room 9 which comfortably fit party of 11. Arrived at 6pm on a Saturday night and was readily available. They only charged $20/hr for the room with 18% gratuity. No drink or food requirements. Which is great cuz most of the places I've been to prior charged per person or has a min order per person. They will hold a credit card on file until you checkout. Controller is in Korean with some English stickers. We still had a bit of trouble navigating the system when we needed to skip songs. Staff was fairly responsive when you rang the bell but toward the end we couldn't get anyone to come so we same one last song to end our hour left downstairs to pay and leave. Song selections were pretty decent with lots of Korean and American hits. They do have their own lot with valet at $5. However if you can score street parking, it's free after 6pm. Alcoholic beverages are where they make their money, my sister ordered a frozen cocktail for $17. Soda comes in a can for $3. Water was free. Note* if you have "kids" in your party, your room cannot order alcohol. However, exception is if "kids" are obvious "little kids" who absolutely would not sneak a drink lol. I think if you had teenagers mixed in your group is when the restaurant would caution not to serve alcohol in that party. Had a wonderful time! Thank you Star Night for allowing us oldies a chance to relive our younger days once again lol read more

Drove 20 miles in traffic because we heard that the owners of our now permanently closed, fave OB Bear took over this joint. Was really excited to once again taste our fave-of-all-time KFC wings, and was sadly disappointed. The flavor was on, but the crunch was missing. We also ordered the beef short ribs and seafood pancake. Both are just okay, nothing extra ordinary. The waiter was nice and the ambiance was great, but not enough to add another star to my review. Add the crunch back to the chicken wings, then maybe I'll add another . read more

Late night Korean bar/restaurant with karaoke. Came here on a Friday evening after a concert at the Wiltern and there was a wait less than 5 min for the two of us. We were there around 11pm and the place was busy. You have to be 21+ to enter. Credit cards accepted but it's a $30 minimum for a card. Indoor dining. There's a small private lot with valet parking or you can try to find parking in one of the residential neighborhoods. We got an order of the corn cheese and the rice cakes. The corn cheese was on the smaller side but there was a generous amount of cheese. The tteokbokki portion was generous and also included fish cakes. The dish was spicy but still manageable. There's a button underneath the table that you can press in case you need a waiter. read more

I've been going to OB Bear for years now until they had a tragic event which led them to close their original spot. Now that they've found a new home in Star Night, I've been going here ever since! Their fried chicken is still the best in k-town, and the vibe is even better and livelier than their original location! It's quite the hidden gem in this area. Parking is valet only, but I would go to the garage across the street where H-Mart is and get your ticket validated there. read more

Everything taste exactly the same. It was so good. Glad OB Bear food isn't gone. Now, it's not the cleanest, the bathroom feels like it just needs a good scrub down but I'm comfortable enough to eat there and let my son eat there so there's that.

Star Night is the type of place you take your-not-from LA friends for a night out in K-town. It's a scene. It's a vibe. And it's always a good time. Food is fantastic here. My favorites include: -kimchi fried rice ($17.99) -spam and eggs ($13.99) -whole fried chicken ($19.99 for a large) -fried chicken wings ($22.99) -tofu + kimchi pork ($22.99) Of these items, I love the spam and eggs the most. I'm not entirely sure why the spam and eggs are so good here, but they are. It's a nice hit of salty when I'm too many drinks in and need a reminder to slow down. The kimchi fried rice is also very good here - it's gooey and pairs well with any of the chicken. But the real star of it all is the chicken. Rumors have it that the chefs came from the OG OB Bear so the chicken is fantastic - nice crispy exterior and tender on the inside. Most entrees come with a generous side of shredded lettuce and or cabbage topped with the mayo dressing. Go ahead and mix it because it's a great palate cleanser in between bites. The portions are very generous - almost to the point where they're a little off-putting. I prefer some of the other drinking spots just because the portion size is more manageable. If you're looking for a good time in K-town, make Star Night your destination. read more

Ambiance/Service: Probably my favorite bar is terms of music - upbeat 2000s-2010s clubbing music haha! Lots of seating.

Came in the other night and was thrown off OB had taken over. We were craving our usual intestines with the cheese and just being able to burn the heck out of our food ourselves.

Honestly probably wouldn't come back if they no longer offer the star night menu.

Food was okay at best. The options left much to be desired and the staff seemed more interested in the basketball game than actually making sure we got the food we ordered.

I cant recommend coming here unless you enjoy eating nothing but lettuce and a small amount of your chosen dish. Oh and they charge for water. read more
