Echo was insanely easy to book in advance - I put in a request on their website, paid a deposit (to a e-transfer but lol it wasn't sketchy) and I've got to say this was one of the cheapest karaokes I've ever been to! (Likely because they use YouTube as their system rather than any specific licensed one - which first of all, slay. Second of all, I prefer this because the typical licensed ones usually don't have all the songs you want / you can pick songs in literally any language as long as the karaoke version is on YouTube!) The drinks were actually made well and not too pricey from what I can remember (which, let's be honest... isn't much LOL) but the bathrooms and overall place were generally clean for a spot like this. I'd come back to sing my heart out again! read more

This is the best karaoke room in the area. So, make sure you have booked your room before you show up. There's no way that you're getting in the evening of. The drinks are very affordable, with 22 dollars a bottle. And the machines have a lot of delightful music, with some pretty interesting background videos. But, there is no way to plug YouTube into the mix to get songs that aren't offered in the books. Still - if you're looking for a good and affordable night, Echo is superb. read more

I only went there for karaoke. No drinking at all. There are different rooms. License rooms are for drinks. I was in a non licensed room and they provided a big room and a discount. My group had a big room. I did not like how the mic sound was not that loud and i did not know how to adjust as it was not in english. The sigm says cash only so i do not think they accept debits but there is an atm machine. read more

this is a great place downtown for a late night activity. the song selection is not bad, and the rooms are good size. it's my go to karaoke bar downtown! read more

3.5 Big rooms and affordable but limited English selection (didn't find a lot that I like). They are also cash only read more

Drinks and food are whatever - it's karaoke, that's not why you're there. The actual rooms are okay, but they recently 'upgraded' to an only digital songbook - that is to say, on the display where people are watching/singing from - with no confirmation of song choices, and the worst search function known to humans. Absolutely a downgrade. The irony is we came here instead of KTV B-Boss because we thought they had a decent setup. Coupled with the disco/strobe light that they 'couldn't turn off' making it impossible to actually see the giant novelty sized remote for entering songs, it was a bit of a nightmare. We ended up putting a t-shirt over the light so we could actually see who was singing, and focus when entering new songs. We had fun, because we're a fun group and you can't mess up classics, but I won't be booking here again until they have the song books back - the system clearly can uses the 5-digit codes, just stop being lazy and reprint the books once in awhile. Oh, and it's cash only in 2023 - so there's that. Probably worth the extra money to go to Bar+ or something. read more

Fun - not too expensive. This place has a good selection of music including japanese, korean and english songs. The staff are helpful and we did not have to wait long. Probably best to go with a bigger group as it is more expensive with just 2. read more

Rating this place as purveyor of English songs. Prices for room and alcohol are average. Limited selection of English songs that are not the original mixes. Equipment is a bit buggy. read more

it's ok (not pricey) but the searching system is buggy and takes a long time. song selection is very limited like what kinda place doesn't have mo bamba or gods plan or 月亮代表我的心. acoustics r not that great either. read more

My wife and I love love love karaoke so we decided to try this place out while visiting Toronto. While I do wish they had a better selection of music in English we had a BLAST! We sang for an hour which flew by really fast. If you have the time and definitely if you're with more than 2 people I would suggest at least two hours. We probably sang (& danced, of course!) around 10 songs though but we didn't waste much time in between songs selecting a song. The cost was $25/ hour for a private room that held up to 6, I believe. If you're karaoke fans like us I highly recommend especially if you're shy in front of a crowd of strangers these private rooms are just the place to escape and let loose with close friends! read more

DO NOT GO. Went to a friend's birthday party at Echo, at the end of the night staff came around to clear drinks and empties. While clearing one of the staff members (male with shoulder length black hair) stole a birthday present off our table (an expensive bottle of wine). One staff member lied about it once confronted, stating that it was his family business and would never do that. We were the last customers in the entire place when the bottle went missing, and seeing as it was just us and the two staff members, we knew it was likely them (as no one attending someone's birthday party would steal from the birthday girl). Eventually the shorter hair staff member admitted to it being stolen and drank by him and the long hair staff member. Because of this admission I got very vocally upset at the long hair staff member that stole the bottle as he still wasn't admitting to stealing it. Eventually he admitted as well and got so angry he sucker punched me in the face and my friend in the throat. He continued acting extremely aggressive threatening to pull a weapon in his belt and suggesting he had a weapon in his car as well. There has been a police report filed with TPS. DO NOT GO HERE. There are many other establishments in the neighbourhood that won't steal and assault you. read more

Great price. Clean rooms. Great machines. The price of alcohol isn't too expensive as well. I recommend here over other places in the area. Let your voice out and enjoy your night out! read more

Amazing Service here, last time I went my friends and I got extra time here. Very nice sound, and friendly staff. Highly recommend this place read more

Unlike the other reviewers, I cannot say how bar+ is like as I haven't been except that apparently they add new English songs fairly quickly to their catalogue that you can quickly search up on their website unlike Echo. Other than that, this place is really really awesome if all you want to sing is Korean songs (cough BTS cough) as they basically have their whole discography there. We had about 15 people so we booked the showtime room that is at a rate of $55/hour. Reservations are by email only through their website and the owner/representative was very quick to respond. You also need to pay a $30 deposit to secure the room. They give you all the details about cancellation and late fees when they respond to your request. With 3 hours of singing, it came to $11/person and that's quite a steal. You can order drinks into the room as long as everyone is the legal drinking age, but if not (which we had some underage), you can drink upstairs. Also, no outside drinks are allowed or you risk getting kicked out of the room. The room was square with enough room to dance around and for everyone to see the screen. Everything was clean, speakers were great and when you start a song, the room gets dark with colourful lights all over the room. We had a blast and will be returning soon! read more

Went with friends. The sound system was really bad; it kept pitching and giving sound feedback so we couldn't sing. When we asked for help, the guy came, but he wasn't very nice about it. The whole place smelled like weed, which didn't bother me, but it may bother some people. The whole experience wasn't great. Much rather go across the street. read more

Really great place. To reiterate the other reviewer, it's second only to Bar +. Clean, modern rooms, with up-to-date technology. The owner clearly cares about the place. The only thing they can improve I think is an even greater selection of English songs! read more

I just visited this place for this first time today with a group of friends and we had a blast! Absolutely loved it and I am definitely going to come again! Great place to have fun and sing some songs with friends. 10/10 would recommend read more
