You know what I love?
I love going to 5 star venues, mostly reviewed by anonymous Yelpers and drop the Truth for the community. Bam three stars son! Welcome to the real world jackass!
Not this time.
Everything about this KTV is 5 stars.
You got the extremely friendly owner, who has you feeling comfortable at "hello." His moving LED name tag just makes him that much more awesome. He is assisted by extremely good looking staff who resemble members of Big Bang.
This is a Korean KTV so machines are remote control operated by typing in numbers corresponding to songs from a big-ass book. Alternatively you can use an on-screen search, which is actually extremely handy. The only downside is that everyone in the room can see what song you're picking since the menu pops up on the TV itself (but doesn't cover the lyrics so it doesn't hinder the singer.)
The songs are very updated. They have all the recent HOT 100 and their respective albums. However you won't be able to find less popular songs (they don't have The Postal Service noOoO) Broadway and Disney... minimum. Their Chinese song book covers all the songs from my parents times to the wack crap kids listen to nowadays. I would guess Helena missed out on asking for the Chinese book and relied on a few listed Chinese songs in the Korean book. I find their song collection to be more than adequate.
side rant: Why do all popular singers now sing in this Taiwanese accented mandarin. It sounds like crap!
Everything is so clean. Rooms are big. Mics are cordless and condom'ed. Most of all, you do it on the cheap. When we came on a Saturday night the place felt extremely empty. So just come so they don't shut down before I go back, mkay?
To say I've been anything less than happy at Happy Karaoke would be a flat out lie. I've had the best of times at this basement level, semi-underground Flushing KTown spot. Noraebang / KTV is serious business in these parts and Happy Karaoke has yet to fail me whenever I'm in late night singing mode along Northern Blvd.
Typically, I tend to avoid Ziller (Korean system often found in KTown karaoke establishments), but their system is top notch and offers a lot of current music, but only in the back of every book. The rooms aren't the most spacious, so be weary of bringing a giant group. Other pluses include the in room ventilation, a stellar sound system, and spotless bathrooms. Big ups to the mic condoms (aka covers).
The name might trigger off a cheesy feel, but the decor is anything but. Contemporary, modern, comfortable, and clean are ways to describe their lovely interior. The front area is more loungey  (and has a TV playing sports) and the private rooms vary from small to semi large groups. Parking is available out front and the place is always open till 5am *every night.*
Perhaps the biggest plus has been their excellent service. The super friendly owner and staff have gone above and beyond to keeping their customers happy, something I can always commend in any establishment, karaoke or not. They are accommodating for tardy groups, tend to offer barbacks, and are generous with food deals (freebies are not uncommon) combined with bottle service. If you're tired of the Main Street karaoke scene, make it a point to venture over to Northern Blvd and put on your happy face for the many gems throughout the area - this certainly is one of them.
A group of old high school friends and I were looking for a place to book a private Karaoke room for a little reunion party, and came across Happy Karaoke. Â The highlights:
- Despite its basement location, the interior was modern and bright with an upscale feel. Â The room itself was large and clean, with a comfortable leather sofa with seating for everyone and a granite table for our drinks.
- The sound system was great, and the karaoke was hooked up to a big screen TV in the front of the room. Â There were two mics that worked very well, and even lights that flashed in time with the music, making "performing" our songs even more fun.
- Perhaps best of all, the staff was VERY friendly and accommodating. Â All of our beers came in big ice buckets. Â They even brought more chairs into our room when several more of our friends showed up later in the evening. Â The service alone was enough to bring us back to this place again in the future.
A couple of "constructive" points that perhaps they can look into:
- They had a great selection of literally thousands of songs in English, but several of my karaoke "standbys" were surprisingly not in the book. Â It does sound though like they continually expand their selection.
- We ordered some food - basic fries and wings. Â Nothing too special, but that's certainly not what we were there for.
The most comfortable karaoke in flushing. Great staffing and a lot of drinks to order from. The rooms are very clean, spacious, and doesn't smell like cigarettes! Not to mention there are so many rooms available. For anyone who is very picky about the sound and mic systems, do not worry! They use the best equipment I've seen as compared to the numerous other karaokes I have been to. Also, they constantly update their song list on a daily basis. Definitely the best karaoke place in queens, hands down
