This is a dive karaoke bar. The weekends get a bunch of woo girls and tech bros in but weeknights and neighborhood locals. Thursdays with Colton as KJ are light hearted and fun

Very friendly vibes, spacious atmosphere, a feast for the eyes. Karaoke baby!! I struggle with bars because so many are way too loud and cramped, but this one works so well on both fronts. Btw, they don't serve food but are super chill about letting you come in with your own.

I really hate writing this. If you search for newer reviews , you'll get a sense of what this place is like now apparently. I can only speak from my experience . I've only recently been coming here again but was a frequent flyer in the early 2000s, in my twenties, but I will never be back. Nope. If Jeff ( tall, long hair and beard...oh he made sure I knew his name too when I addressed him as "bartender") is working, leave. Turn around and go somewhere else. Up the street is Hula Hula. Really. Such a chip on one's shoulder for working in such an armpit, albeit treasured one in some circles. I've dealt with him twice now and he's quite the snot, very condescending and arrogant. People prior to me talk about how rude the staff is here and yes, affirmative. If he's considered the gold standard for customer service to management, no thank you. I can drink at home or elsewhere. I do not know of the issues with karaoke or favoritism but there seems to be a theme again if you look at the reviews but believe me, if there is any truth to that if you're not a regular you get iced out, then damn, I was not one of the favored in my recent visit there.. I've been out of the "bar circuit" for well over a decade but I guess these bartenders get paranoid now about how much they serve people from visit to visit but I got cut off after two doubles with me just sitting there not bothering anybody. Literally zero issues. Really, Jeff? I get it that there is a risk for "over serving" but you know you weren't right for that. Girl bye. You clearly operate based on what kind of mood you're in and you really shouldn't be in the service industry. Like I told you today to your face, you're really whack. I can't imagine what you're like when it's busy and you got people light years more problematic than I was but best believe , I won't be back to find out. It's too bad because I really liked that place despite it being a poophole but as with most establishments, your front end will make or break you.

Scott, the bar tender, is very down to earth and friendly. This is such a great local bar. A "must see" kinda place. Oh, and karaoke every day!!! Even if you don't get up and sing, it's a good time to be had by all!

Always a fun place, had to make it one of my stops on my bday bar crawl yesterday. Also one of the few karaoke places where people don't make you feel like you need to be a pro, it's just about having fun!

Ruvin, the bartender, has the MOST AMAZING mixed drinks! I gave him a couple of things I was looking for, and he made me the most delicious drinks all night! I cannot recommend this place enough (as long as you like karaoke)! Thank you Ruvin for an awesome night!!!

This place is God awful. There were maybe 2 dozen people in the bar on a Saturday. Clarissa runs the karaoke at Crescent Lounge, at least on Saturdays. However even arriving at 11:00 PM on a Saturday with 8 people in the bar the wait to sing a song is 2.5 hours, after waiting an hour from putting a name in, it was another 1.5 hours to sing. Mind you there were 6-7 singers in that time (including Clarissa and her friend who's birthday it was, who conveniently moved ahead of everyone). We gave her a "tip" but unless you are a regular don't plan to actually sing within any reasonable time. Calling out all the singers names who are no longer there is mainly how Clarissa spends her time as a DJ. Instead of actually finding people to actually sing karaoke (remember there were a couple dozen total people in the bar) she called herself to sing, her girlfriend whose birthday it was, and then the bartender, who proceeded to threaten people to treat their bar staff well, or we'll close down early (it was daylight savings time). Avoid this place at all costs

Your neighborhood queer karaoke dive bar. Jeff the day bartender is amazing! The regulars make out of towners feel welcome and their song collection is top notch.
