My wife just threw me the most epic 40th birthday party here and I'm still in awe. What a hidden gem! I'm a huge NBA fan and wanted to have a draft night party theme with red carpet, glam decor, outdoor area for games (beer pong, cornhole, etc.) and most importantly - a great sound stage for large group karaoke. Rachel Millas (event coordinator) and Colin Peterik (owner) were absolutely fantastic to work with, they made sure everything ran smoothly and were super professional and proactive. Our guests kept asking "how did you find this place?!" - and the answer is my wife found it on Yelp. So, I'm writing this review so that the great folks at The Jam Lab get WAY more business. We brought our home karaoke machine in for a test run a few weeks in advance of the event so that Colin could make sure it all worked smoothly. I also brought a 42 inch TV so that we could connect it to the machine via HDMI and the folks in the audience could sing along too. They have a large stage with 4 mic stands, but we honestly had up to 8 people up there at once singing their hearts out (with some liquid courage, of course). I've done karaoke at many swanky private room lounges before, but this was a whole new level of experience. We also set up a red carpet area for pictures and the venue's photobooth room was incredible as well. Having the outdoor space for people to get some air, play some games, eat in a more relaxed manner, etc. was a game changer.
I will say that because 47th St. is under construction, it's very easy to miss the place and the understated building exterior is not at all representative of how beautiful the space is inside. They usually can reserve the parking lot of the business next door to handle even large events (we had 70+ people). But regardless of what you need, Rachel and Colin will work with you to make it happen. read more
