    Guys - private karaoke at such a reasonable price.... They have a tequila "gun" where they shoot shots into your mouth. There's food! It's decent, especially once you've reached the level of inebriation of full on karaoke. It's fun as hell, multiple mics, and open LATE!

    I wanted to do something different for my 30th birthday this June, and since I love singing, karaoke felt like the perfect way to celebrate! I booked the Industrial Suite at YZ's Karaoke Café and later upgraded to the VIP room after our time was up. Both rooms were super spacious, which was great since I had a group of friends with me. Because it was my birthday, they even sprayed a shot of sake in my mouth (lol)--a fun and unexpected bonus that definitely kicked the night up a notch. I didn't eat much since I was busy belting out songs and sipping drinks, but I did try the dry-rub chicken wings and they were surprisingly good! The karaoke machine took a little getting used to, but once I figured it out, it was game on. My friends and I had an absolute blast. It ended up being such a special and memorable birthday, and I'd 100% come back for another fun night of karaoke. Perfect spot for parties, group hangouts, or just letting loose for the night!

    Stylish room with great karaoke setup. The system is quick and easy to navigate, making song selection a breeze. Service is fast, the staff are very friendly, and the sound system is top-notch. Will definitely come back again

    I came here for the first time a few weeks ago and I will be back! It was so much fun singing karaoke in a private room! The only downfall is the room was pretty warm and we weren't able to cool down. Staff was helpful and responsive when we pressed the service button. We ordered a few drinks that were delicious! They also offer food and bites which I will try next time! They also have a big area where you can hang out at the bar, sit and also sing karaoke.

    YZ's karaoke was a huge hit. I didn't know what to expect, but the karaoke room we rented comfortably fit eight people and once people settled in and got over the karaoke nerves it was a blast. The service was great. There wasn't a massive crowd. Drinks and food were easy to get, and everyone who worked there was friendly. Around 10 o'clock, it becomes a nightclub, but you can still rent the rooms and keep singing if you want. The karaoke rooms were cute. One microphone died, but they fixed it immediately. The best part was that for tons of the music, they played the original music videos, which was absolutely amazing for 90s hits you haven't heard in forever. It gave you that hit of nostalgia with the music videos. Super fun! I would definitely go back again with a group and try out the different themed rooms. We had the industrial room, and it was fun with the theming. I'm curious to see what the others look like. The food we all ordered very basic appetizer stuff- the edamame was good. People seemed to enjoy the popcorn chicken, and they had tons of different beers--many Korean--since the place is a Korean karaoke bar. A lot of the drinks and food have Korean ties. Also I should note they have some NA options for drinks. Overall, a great experience. Will definitely go back.

    It's the best the valley offers for Asian karaoke...since this is really the ONLY place for Asian karaoke. It's located in a strip mall, but there's more than meets the eye. Definitely a place to try outside the typical bar scene, or if you want a more intimate karaoke experience. Make a reservation via DM on Instagram (@yz_karaoke_cafe) or call 4803067779. They offer medium (~10 ppl), large (~20 ppl), and VIP rooms (+20 ppl w private bathroom) - check w them for pricing. Main area has a full bar, tables and booths, and on weekends they usually have a DJ to keep the atmosphere lively. Check-in at the bar, and they'll prepare your room (usually 10-15 min). In medium rooms, we're usually all sitting, with 1-2 people dancing around. Large room is def less cramped (about twice the size of medium room). One slow night, they gave us the VIP room, which was super spacious and great for dancing around. When leaving, stop by the bar to check out so they stop the clock. Food is nothing to write home about, but we usually snack on bites while our room is being prepped, and bring leftovers in after the room is ready. Our go-tos are popcorn chicken, tteokbokki, kimchi fried rice, and beef skewers (although these have been a bit chewy for our molars at times). They provide water and cups. Song selection is fine, and staff will give a short tutorial on how to use the song selection machine (touchscreen, can queue songs). They have pop, rap, country, oldies, etc. for all tastes. The booths are kinda worn and cracked, but the two mics are always charged (complete with little covers), and the sound system is just fine. Overall, 3.5 for the space, food, and karaoke. It's very striking when you exit the building into the empty strip mall, but I always leave knowing I had a ton of fun.

    Is there an age restriction?

    I reserved a room and they did not check IDs for people who were not ordering alcohol, so we had people under 21 present (and not drinking).

    What time does karaoke start?

    Whenever you reserve a room!

I had this place saved for some time as it nearby, and I have to say "thank you" to all my Yelpers as the food and the service matched at the positive feedback. Parking was fairly simple as it's located on the corner of Dobson and Guadalupe, and once inside, the staff was very welcoming and provided the menu. The TVs were some Pet channel full of cuteness (that's the only word that comes to mind for me to describe), while the other had something similar but maybe of bloopers. Either way, it was cool and blended in with the stylishly cool decor. As for lunch, I decided to go with the Bento box that included Beef and Broccoli as the main dish. It came with a side of rice, spring roll, a crab ragoon, and 4 sushi pieces. They did bring out a courtesy salad, which was nice. I went with a fountain drink but they do have Sake, Beer & Wine. Service and speediness of the food were good, and as you can tell by my photo, it was steaming hot when it arrived. Overall, everything was on point, and I think I'll come back and try another Bento box lunch special.

We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.

This was a little messy and a LOT delicious. I hope they have more duck items on the menu. Looking forward to trying more here!

This time it was lunch, so it was nice and bright. The service was wonderful!! I did not catch their names, but the the gentleman and lady who served us were very helpful. We ordered 3 of the Steamed Buns: Pork Belly, Hot Chicken, and the Bun of the Moment, which happened to be Drunken Shrimp, I believe. I didn't taste the Hot Chicken, but the other two were super tasty!! Portions were great and every morsel was devoured. The Krazy Fries were damn delicious!! Packed full of flavor and very filling, it's a great dish to be shared. I can't pass up pork belly!! Lol I forgot what drink my friend ordered, but I had no shame and had the Pornstar Martini, yessir!!! It was quite comical when our server mentioned that most people are embarrassed to order it because of its name, but I proudly said it loud and clear! That drink was perfect for brunch/lunch! Overall it was a great visit, minus the twitching fly that was on our table after we were seated. We didn't know if it was half dead or what, but my friend just swiped it across the table until it fell off. I'm not sure they have any control over flies coming into the restaurant as people enter and exit, but it was off putting to have to shoo them away while you're having a meal and trying to converse. Other than that fly issue, the visit was solid. Prices aren't bad and there's a big parking lot outside the establishment as well as a public parking garage not far away. I highly recommend Clever Koi if you've never been!
