Went there yesterday for a birthday party. It was awesome! The room itself is just the bare karaoke essentials (pretty much all you need), nothing too special. They did have some cool lighting though. We took the $30/hour room, it seemed to fit the 15 of us just fine.
The owner was very nice and "lenient" with us. He allowed us to bring food and drinks to the place without any problem. He also provided us with a few water bottles and cups at the start. After singing a couple songs, a few of us went to hang out on the couch in the lobby area and we were a bit loud, and he didn't seem to mind at all. I love that guy!
The only downside to this place is the song book is a bit disorganized. They have the bulk of it organized, but the new songs that they add monthly are in the back. You have to flip through the pages for what new songs they added month by month, wasn't too bad but still. They add probably about 6-8 new English songs a month. The rest were in other languages. Though there is a search option on the remote some where, too bad I couldn't figure it out since it's in Korean. So probably a good tip would be to bring someone who can read Korean to this place. Regarding song selection, it was okay.
Anyways, I love this place and will suggest this place anyone wants to chill and just sing! Being able to bring your own food and drinks, too good. Only minor issues with the songbook and remote is all. Have fun!
My friends and I have been searching for karaoke places to host our birthday parties this September... We checked out this one. The prices are great and the atmosphere is perfect for karaoke with the lights and the comfy rooms. However, the English song selection is extremely limited... Maybe only 15/20 pages of songs. Also, the controls are not in English and we weren't given any instructions. The place was nice for just three of us... We might even go back... But I won't be throwing any parties there.
Review Source:Came here on a Friday night at around 8 pm, so I was very surprised no other party was here. Maybe it was still too early?
The man (owner?) was very nice and gave us free water bottles and cups to pour them in. We even went over time by about 5 minutes and he didn't rush us or charge us.
The room had everything: two tvs, one on each end so you can actually sing to the audience hahaha, a disco ball, blacklights, mic/volume controls, and a remote. The song selections were nice; I hope they bring in some more recent stuff though!
It's a little out of the way where I live, but I definitely would recommend to all who are in the Gardena area!
This is located next to an AYCE KBBQ place I love (Hwang's restaurant). I didn't know this even existed until my cousin took us here. We came here under the recommendation of his friend. A man greeted us at the door (well, more so nodded at us, haha) and started leading us to a room. I don't know if he miscounted my group or underestimated how big my group was, but he took us to a room too small for my party. I think we found out at the same time because before I had a chance to say something, he led us back to the front of his showroom to a much bigger room :) It had all the shebang--disco lights, air conditioner and electric fans (extremely helpful during the summer night we came), galaxy glow in the dark wallpaper, and surround sound :) I was in a different world! The room also included tambourines and 2 TVs (a small one at the back of the room for some other viewing pleasure and a bigger one at the front for everyone to read off of). Â
He brought us 2 free bottles and cups without us asking. If you ask me, he gave 2 bottles too much. No karaoke bar has ever given me free water that's for sure. The room got stuffy really quickly, but the AC allowed the air to circulate better.
They have recent songs like Karmin's Broken Hearted, Jason Mraz's I Won't Give Up, and Maroon 5's Pay Phone. Unfortunately, they've got a limited selection of Tagalog songs, which my cousins were looking for.
Overall, a fun and spacious way of singing the night away!
After having dinner a few doors down at Hwang's, I felt compelled to drop by. Â I approached the man who worked here for a tour of the rooms and seeing they weren't bad at all, I convinced my friends to stay for an hour.
We took up a small room and were given a bottle of water and cups, also directions on using the remote. Â Seating was comfy. Â I'd say song selection was pretty typical as I don't mind singing older stuff. Â You don't get points at the end of the songs but I don't care. Â Okay, I wanted to know how good or bad I was.
I would come here again. Â The guy who runs this place is friendly and didn't charge us extra for going over the hour. Â We left pleased, the four of us paying $5 each.
Tried this place for the first time last Friday, and I was really impressed! Â The guy really is very nice - he gave us a bottle of water and some cups to share, and he said we could bring in outside food & drinks too if we wanted. Â His prices are VERY fair compared to the places in West LA or Little Tokyo that we've been to. Â It's a little hard to find songs in the song book because of the way it's arranged, but we managed. Â If anything, it made us sing some oldies and 80s songs while we looked for the newer stuff, which I loved. :) Â The one downside is that the place smelled kinda smoky, but I doubt there's anything the owner could do about it since the smell might have been coming from any number of places (people in the back alley or the KBBQ place a few doors down). Â I feel kinda bad that there weren't that many people on a Friday night. Â Now that I know about it, I'll definitely be back! Â Loved the music, lights, cleanliness, and ambience!
Review Source:Fantasia is absolutely fantastic! I have been coming to this little karaoke studio for over 6 years now and it is always my go-to karaoke place. If you are looking for a good night with friends I suggest you visit Fantasia. This place is not at all fancy but it is absolutely cozy and keep their song selection updated.
The Korean man who owns this place is super sweeeet! My friends and I have been trashing his karaoke rooms for years (we cleanup, of course) but he has never complained. In fact, he usually gives us juice after our visits and water if he sees someone had a little too much to drink. When we have karaoke parties he lets us bring snacks, food, drinks which we really appreciate. Honestly, you can't go wrong with Fantasia, I will always keep coming here.
If you're looking for a nice little place where you can sing your lung off without a care in the world this is the place. It's not the most lavish looking place in the world but you can tell the owner invested all he could into this little studio. Don't get me wrong this place looks great! It's just not what I envision a karaoke studio looking like.
You rent the rooms by the hour. We got the large room the last time I was there and had a blast. Lots of lights, and mural paintings with comfortable loungers. It's always clean. Great place and really nice guy.
