    Great little karaoke bar where you get your own room to let loose... I had the Yellow Polka Dot Bikini and it was pretty good a little on the sweet side but tasty. Service is prompt Nd friendly. They also have an open stage for open Mic karaoke at the front of the bar as well.. It was a fun night and would come back again !!

    Come in and sing!

    My lady and I have been wanting to come here for a while and finally did as part of my lady's 50th birthday celebration. We went with some very dear friends. At first, I was gonna reserve a private room, but those were booked pretty far in advance. Still, their main bar area was very cool, and the karaoke is free as long as you buy a drink. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Their libations menu is very nice with lots of specialty cocktails and mocktails. Their draft and bottle beer selection is great too. They specialize in sake and sake-based drinks. For my lady's birthday, I sang REO Speedwagon's "I Can't Fight This Feeling" for her, because she would sing that song for me while we were just friends. At the end of it, I proposed to her, and even the staff cheered afterwards and gave us free champagne to celebrate. It was an incredibly fun night and one neither of us will ever forget. We will absolutely be going back for drinks and songs again.

    My friends and I had a fabulous time here and I finally stepped on stage to do karaoke for the first time. You walk in and vibrant neon lights are everywhere. Honestly, every turn you take there's something eye popping. From the rainbow lanterns all down the hall to the giant murals, you're going to be whipping out that phone to snap a pic or two or five. The drinks were funky and put a tiki spin on the experience. I forget what the name of the drink I got was but it did have a beautiful orchid on top. The main stage was up front and the sound system was solid. The host was great too. I didn't take a look inside of the individual rooms but I have no doubt they were colorful and creative too. If you live in Cincy or you're just visiting, this is definitely a spot to check out. I'm glad I ripped the bandaid off and tried karaoke for the first time. If that doesn't tell you how comfortable I was (and how good the drinks are), then I don't know what will. Have a blast!

    Definitely a fun space to do karaoke at spent most of my time in the public karaoke area, but for those who want more privacy, you can rent a private karaoke. Space Drinks were pretty average for downtown spent about seven dollars for a local beer Rap music was limited, but older music for all genres was very accessible Can get very crowded on a Saturday night, but I think that adds to the fun There is some selective street parking, but I would suggest paying eight dollars and parking in the parking garage that is about a block down the road

    I hadn't been here in awhile and while it's still a cool spot, it's starting to show a little wear. I did enjoy the bartenders and my mocktail, which made my Dry January a little less boring. The karaoke DJ kept the party going. It just fell a little flat compared to my previous experiences, but this is the first time I didn't rent a private room and I will definitely never go again without doing that.

    What an absolutely fun place. The ambiance when coming in was so fun with the lights everywhere and karaoke up for everyone. There's private rooms that can be rented and will totally take advantage of that one day! The drinks were priced great and I loved the named cocktail list.

    Tokyo Kitty is always a blast. I believe it is the only true dedicated karaoke bar in the Cincinnati area. If you're interested in hitting the stage and having a few drinks, I highly recommend it. The atmosphere is always so fun, and the main stage area always lends for people to meet and hang out with one another. They also have private rooms for rent as well. Bar staff is always friendly and helpful. I will say - the cocktail menu is smaller than it used to be. Each drink is really well crafted, but I miss the extra variety. There is also very little seating in the main area, so be ready to stand and dance to the music.

    Ohhhh we loved this place! Tokyo Kitty was definitely the highlight of our trip! We came to celebrate our friend's wedding and took her out for a night on the town. We rented a private room for a very reasonable price, and spent the rest of the night in the main area. On peak evenings, TK only lets you rent out a room for an hour - which seems like a short amount of time, but continually singing for 60 minutes does indeed wear you out. An hour was plenty! The staff will happily take your drink order as you sing in the private room. The ambience of this place is perfection. Anime videos (Pokemon, specifically) play in the background of the main room as people sing to their heart's content. The drinks are cold and reasonably priced. I am taking off one star because it really is impossible to get in contact with them on the weekends. On their voicemail, it straight up says they will not get back to you. I do feel like there could be a little more communication, but it did not deter us from our evening. If you're in Cincinnati, you have to check this place out for karaoke!

    We booked a private room for an hour and it flys by but it was so worth it. The drinks here are really good and a robot delivered us our drinks in the private room. Will definitely be coming back.

Karaoke Fantastic delivers just that. Sean Hafer, the DJ, can be found spinning songs every Thursday at Northside Tavern and Sundays at Mainstay. With a collection of over 12,000 songs, its definitely the best karaoke Cincinnati has to offer. I am in awe of the selection of showtunes, including the ENTIRE soundtrack from RENT, not just "Seasons of Love" as one typically finds. Sean makes it possible for me to serenade bar patrons with such numbers as "Take Me or Leave Me," "Out Tonight," or "Another Day." Don't worry, once I finish with RENT, there are songs from pretty much every Broadway musical ever made. And lots of Weird Al Yankovic. All of Sean's songs come neatly arranged in binders. He has plenty to go around, both with listings by song title or by artist. He also has multiple wireless microphones which are great for group numbers, or in my case, songs that encourage me to dance off-stage while crooning. A fun, personable DJ, Sean is always up for singing duets and occasionally buys drinks for his regular singers. Karaoke has always been a blast, but Karaoke Fantastic elevates it to a higher level. Yearning to belt out some notes? This is the place to do it.
