We love it celebrated my daughters 21st birthday and I wish I had reserved more time will be going back

I had a great time me here! This place is kinda hidden in the corner, so you have to drive around to find it. The inside is big and spacious with interesting decorations. My only complaint is that it was hot in the room. Overall, we had a great time, and I highly suggest this place. read more

Family Karaoke - Karaoke Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This place isn't bad. If it's your first time doing karaoke you'll enjoy it! But I will say I've been to several spots better than this one in the area. It's cute inside! I enjoyed see the Yoda on the DJ booth and the huge screen when you walk in. There's a bar & a small seating and dance area. The karaoke rooms were colorful and had a nice vibe to it. I didn't enjoy the outdated karaoke equipment, you have to use a huge remote that worked sometimes if you point it a certain way lol The music selection wasn't bad but definitely outdated. The food was not good in my opinion, the Ramen lacked flavor. The servers were quick and friendly. Overall this place is fine for family and friends but I don't have any interest in returning. read more

Family Karaoke - Blue MF, it was pretty strong - Karaoke Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We stumbled upon Encore Family Karaoke while trying to find something unique to do for our tween daughter's birthday party. The private karaoke room was just perfect! The easy to use system offered just about every song you could possibly imagine (including very new releases) and allowed the girls to control the song queue just by scanning a QR code with their phones (which was the only time they were on their phones the entire time). The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food menu covered everyone from the chicken nugs crowd to the more adventurous eaters among them (ramen and bulgogi). Private room rental was reasonable considering the quality of the experience, and we were able to bring in our own party favors (such as glow sticks and feather boas) as well as a birthday cake (though they do offer this if you like). The time flew by and all the girls had a great time. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this venue to anyone struggling with birthday party ideas for young ladies. read more

Had fun here celebrating a friends birthday. There is pretty good selection of songs (minus some major artists, but ya can't win them all). Food was pretty good, but expensive with minimal selection. Service was quick and staff was friendly. Our room was very warm despite us asking to cool the room. The hallway outside our room was cold and unfortunately we were all sweating the whole night." read more

Upon arrival the Asian lady at the bar had a very nasty attitude (we let it slide due to it being my birthday and us not being from Texas just wanting good fun vibes). The lady that escorted us to our room was super nice and helpful! I can't remember her name though. I believe it started with a S. She educated us on the karaoke remote and how it functions. The room was super fun! When it was time to checkout, the same Asian lady from before was still there. My friends both put different cards on file to pay for their food and drinks. They were asking to pay and to retrieve their cards. The Asian lady asked for me and told me the balance of the room, I decided I wanted to use a different card and told my friends they could pay first, the lady became very mean and demanding that I hurry to switch the card. My friend asked her if she was ok due to her demeanor changing! She responded "I'm fine" but yet she still had an attitude for no reason other than her being impatient. We are visiting from Las Vegas and found this location on google. I will most def look around for other karaoke places before recommending this place to anyone. read more

Rooms were $37/h now. The space was clean and service was prompt. Good song list, and the machine had buttons in English. We also thought the scoring system was a fun additional touch. (Felt like I was on a Korean variety show, hah!) We reserved two hours ahead of time which was plenty of time for our group of eight. Great drink selection with lots of tasty flavored soju options. Ample parking even on a Saturday evening. All in all, a pretty decent spot. Edit: So saddened to hear about the owner's recent death. There's a GoFundMe for the family. read more

Had lots of fun! We had a room of 12 people and it was $35/hr. The staff was super friendly and the rooms had lots of AC/air circulation which I appreciate! We drank lots of Soju but me and my friends enjoyed our time there. We didn't have an issue with requesting new songs (NewJeans were on there!) and old songs. Also, if you ask how to use the machine, it's super simple to understand the karaoke machine. :) read more

This place is a vibe, great drinks, nice rooms. Only reason why I could only give 3 stars is due to the song selection. I had not been here in years but the song selection is still the same just with updated equipment. Please update the songs. read more

Expensive for what is... In a weird part of town and sketchy.. unlike most karaoke bars.. this was not BYOB.. the bar was super expensive with hardly any liquor in the drinks... won't be going back.. Service was no where to be found. read more

Room rate is fair $29/hour. Spacious room. Couches and chairs were old and beaten up. The song book was ancient. Staff were nice and attentive. Fair spot. read more

Somehow I've arrived at this point of my life having never done karaoke. After singing in bands for decades it seemed like "Why would this be fun?" But, I gotta say we had a BLAST at family karaoke! Nestled on Goodnight Dr., just off a seedier stretch of 35W and not far from King Spa, the neighborhood vibe was a little creepy. I don't think I would ever have accidentally passed by it and thought, "Hey we should try that place." But once inside the bar area was wide open with a small stage, lights, and a perimeter of private rooms. Our group had rented one of these and I was surprised how isolated the sound was once inside. We sat on a ring of comfy couches with coffee tables in the middle. Two screens displayed lyrics and a remote control provided access to the extensive library of karaoke tracks. Push the red button and someone from the bar comes in to take orders. We ate, drank, and sang for 3-4 hours, including a new drink named Soju that was like a cider that you shoot. The abv seemed lowish and it was sweet and part of the experience of Korean karaoke. Goofy friend with crappy voice started the night with freaking Don't Stop Believing and deeSTROYED it haha. After that we were all pretty much like "I know I can't suck THAT bad and it was funny anyway." Props for breaking the ice by being the easy act to follow. I went for Cruise by FGL, Walk This Way by Aerosmith (much harder than I thought haha), I Want It That Way with goofy crappy singer friend haha. And gf and I did Beauty And The Beast and man, I'm no Peabo Bryson. There were only a small number of tracks that we couldn't find in the library. Bar response was quick and prices about what we expected. My only complaint is that I asked for some ice water at the (completely empty) bar and she told me I had to buy a bottled water, which is against the law (TABC). I pressed it cuz WTF, and she relented and handed me one of the 10,000 glasses stacked directly in front of me on the bar and poured some water in it from the tap for me. Despite that, a very positive experience!! read more

Great place to enjoy some karaoke with family and friends or you can simply hang out in the main lobby area and sing there with no fee and enjoy some food and drinks. If on a budget I recommend that option but if you want your night to be more of a friend or family kind of night or celebrating a birthday/special occasion and want a private room I'd go that route. Overall place was amazing with lots of parking and they're open until 2am so you can sing your lungs out singing until the early morning. Haha! Staff here has great customer service and atmosphere here is very welcoming. Highly recommend if your trying to find a great place to have some fun and in the mood to sing. read more

I had my 50th birthday party here on October 22, 2022 and we has a blast with the room and doing karaoke but the food was horrible. I wish they would have let us bring in it own food for certain occasions because they still would have made there money on drinks and room rates/ Again the drinks and karaoke was so much fun. But very disappointed in the food and cost and my party was over 30 people we bought a lot in the 3 hours we where there. Please change the food policy or get better food. read more

First time here & had a blast. If you like or love lol karaoke then you need to try this place. Great for parties or a group of friends getting together for a fun night. Drinks & food were amazing!! They did let us have a birthdate cake but no other food/drinks are allowed. Go have some fun!!! read more

I brought a few friends here to finish off our trip to Dallas. None of us had ever been to private-room karaoke before, but I think this was a great introduction! The workers were friendly and told us everything we needed to know. They didn't have EVERY song we wanted to sing, but we definitely did not get bored during our 2 hours. To top it off, the prices were very reasonable. If I ever come back to Dallas, I will come here again! read more

Visited here last night and we had so much fun! We had issues with mics dying a couple times- we were there for 2 hours. It was super fun. We ordered a few drinks and snacks. I wish they had a bigger selection of songs but we had fun. Will come here again. read more

The owner is Jin and is a Veteran that keeps this place running with his close knit staff. They've truly been like family. Unlike some generic unknown reviews let me tell you about what I specific like about this place along with some of my "meh" to make it fair. Pros: VERY affordable rooms, friendly staff, and always have some sort of theme or special going on. They do check and throw out drunkards causing trouble for patrons. Meh: Opportunities to improve is to pressure wash their outside, and repair the parking lot. I almost feel I need a 4x4 so my tires aren't slipping and a sliding. read more

Karaoke made fun! Was here for a reunion and everyone had a blast! If you're ever in the area definitely stop by! Friendly staff. Food is great too! read more

The personal karoke rooms are nice. However, the food was fried too hard and they have a limited selection of songs. On the expensive side and had to go find someone to help with the equipment, order, etc. Overall, it was OK. read more

My favorite karaoke place. All my friends go here. They have a main area with a bar if singing in a private room isn't your thing. It's fully equipped with the usual liquor choices or soju if you want to try something different. The kitchen has the usual finger food and well as Korean options. Nowadays during Covid, the pricing has been ridiculously good. They had like $2 or $3 kimchi fried rice at one point. Now I think it's drink specials like $5 Crown and down. If you want to get something else, they will let you get Dansungsa who's down the street to deliver to you. read more

If you haven't been here stop everything you're doing and go right now. I was first introduced to family karaoke back in high school and still love it so much that I take my 14-year-old and eight-year-old daughters to go for random karaoke day parties. Kindest staff you'll ever meet, they absolutely treat you like family and anything they can do to accommodate your requests within reason of course, they will try their best. Great great value for the rooms and equipment provided as well as the time you can rent the rooms and different sizing options for rooms depending upon how many in your party. Professional grade sound quality, and I would know because I'm a singer singer and my dad runs a sound business on the side as well so for karaoke, this place is where it's at. But don't take my word for it, get your butt up there! (: *tell them Nicolette sent you for a discount on your first visit * read more

Great place for my teens birthday party! They were very accommodating and the kids loved everything about the party.

They have a full bar and have nice drinks, spacious private rooms and even a food menu. My friend ordered ramen and said it was the worst ramen she's ever had and it quite literally looked like it came out of a Maruchan bag. So food is a no-go here, you're better off ordering drinks and grabbing something to eat before or afterwards. The service was nice though, but another downside would be the lack of songs that they have. read more

First time here and there was a special going on with 5 dollar sojus and some kpop night. I think they do lots of events like this and its always popping with people on those days. The MC is funny and the dj is pretty decent. Its an open area with high tables and booths all around and has a stage up front. I guess the karoke rooms are in the back somewhere. Its not a bad place to come out at night but the location is in a bit of a shady place so be careful when you drive. Also it seemed to be filled with more younger people so may not be too fun for older people! read more

It was a pretty fun experience, but everything was just disorganized. I had a group of four friends get a private room, which took forever to even get because you have to book it at the bar and half the time you would be ignored. When we finally got the room random employees would come in one was trying to give us another persons card and the other brought in food for someone who wasn't in our room. Trying to pay was chaotic too and many people in the main room were not wearing masks despite there being a sign requiring them to. read more

My family has been coming here , I think before we even had kids & now even 13 years later, we are bringing our kids for their birthdays and celebrating all family events we can think of, the manager or owner is always over the top accommodating. Food is piping hot and good variety for a karaoke place. We will forever patronize this place, a very special place, and holds many silly fun filled memories for us. The more, the merrier, for sure. read more

Family Karaoke - Karaoke Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The night started off great. I emailed them around noon to reserve a private room for 6 people on a Saturday night, they got back to me after they opened and told me they'd save us a room. Fast forward to getting there. They start your timer AT THE DOOR with the bouncer, but proceed to tell you to check in at the bar. The bar was PACKED and a bartender didn't get to us until 15 mins later. We didn't find out the timer situation until 2 hours later when they are kicking us out. NO ONE mentioned the 2 hr max. Not on the website, not the guy at the door, not the waitress taking us to the room and setting us up, NO ONE until we stopped receiving drink service and had to go out there to ask. They basically told us they are busy and we have to leave. Servers were nice until they straight up stop serving you until you get up and start asking around. It was poorly managed. Make sure you only intend on spending 2 hrs there and keep track of when you walk in the door to the building, NOT the room, they won't tell you. read more

This was my first time going to a karaoke place that had private rooms, and I had the time of my life! We stayed for a couple hours, and I definitely wore my throat out from all the singing, but it was totally worth it! I'm super glad we decided to stop in while on our trip if I'm ever in Dallas again in the future, I'll be coming back with some friends for sure! read more

I don't recommend this place solely because of the owner. The owner is very hostile to customers and staff. It was very awkward seeing him publicly yell at his employees over some mistake they made. Then also some guests. Very unprofessional. I feel for the staff. read more

Super fun if you want a private room for karaoke - it's no frills, but the service is good and it's a great time.

Went there yesterday for my friends birthday party. Music selection was fairly good, equipment worked, my friends enjoyed their food and the ladies who were our servers did a great job. What made this review a two star was what happened towards the end of the night. My girls and I were on our way out when a rude staff member took my water bottle out of my purse when I went to get the celebrants belongings from the karaoke room. When I was bringing the stuff out I saw my water bottle next to the entrance on the table. I took it from the table and walked back to my friends. Then the rude staff member walked up to me snatched my water bottle out of my hand and began yelling at me telling me "water bottles" are not allowed and it has to stay with him. I explained to him that when I arrived at 8pm nobody explained to me that I could not bring my water bottle and that it's only water inside. Nor is there any visible signs saying that you can't bring your water bottle inside. I told him we were soon leaving and took my water bottle back from him and went over to my friends to explain the situation. Even after I told him that I understood the rules he continued to harass my friends and I. I later found out that he yelled at my friend who was the celebrant and also 7 months pregnant about bring water. It was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. It was our first time there and he turned our experience from sweet to completely sour. read more

It was fun because of my friends, we rented a room for Christmas party. The music selection for R&B, Rap, Hip Hop, Soul is VERY LIMITED. We made the best with what they had. Afterwards, they were playing music in the open bar area that was good for a little pre-gaming. The service was good at the bar. The waitress was fine. The drinks were great and moderately priced. Id go again, if someone invited me but it wouldnt be my top choice for karaoke. read more

Been coming here for about.. 3.5 years now ever since my boyfriend and I moved here from Cali. We've gotten to know the owner, Jin, pretty well along with Chi (cute bartender ^__^). Ooh the kimchi fries are fucking bomb. Haven't tried the bulgogi one yet- maybe later. Pretty drunk and my boyfriend is being annoying (singing/screaming in my ear) and so I guess I should end this review. :D :D read more

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Family Karaoke!! Came here with some classmates and rented a room on a Friday night. They have a great selection at the bar and we were pleasantly surprised at the food options, too- though let's be honest- that's not why you come here. :p Fantastic song selection and plenty of mics and ridiculous sound effects to go around. What made our trip top notch though was the service- Seriously! These guys are beyond wonderful. Everyone from the bartenders to management was incredible. We will definitely be back!!! read more

If you don't enjoy doing karaoke in fronts of strangers, rent a room out and just do it in front of your friends. Unsure of the costs as I was just invited here, but overall was a good time. Pros: Private room Waitress comes to get drink/food orders 2 microphones Can control songs on a keypad like device Parking lot Cons: Service is slow Buttons on the keypad were dying Furniture was pretty worn/out dated Chicken looked like it was full of steroids Service was extremely slow in regards to drinks read more

Best place ......ever!!! Doesn't matter what race you are ....everyone is treated equally!!! I'm Asian....and I've seen it all!! Door guys who are better than bouncerS?!? Music selection better than all others!!? Come here! Enough said!!!!!! read more

There are two types of people who like karaoke: those who like singing in front of a bunch of strangers, and those who like singing in front of their friends. Family is easily my favorite karaoke place in Dallas because they accommodate both. When you walk in, you see the bar, a bunch of tables, and the main stage. Anybody can sing on the stage, or they have DJ's some nights. They've got like a dozen private rooms as well, of various sizes. On popular nights it can be a long wait so reservations are recommended, but in the meantime you can sing on the main stage! As far as the bar/kitchen goes, the prices are really reasonable for drinks with lots of specials. The food is definitely drunk food because it's a lot of fried stuff, but it's so good. I pretty much always get the chicken tenders, fries, and dumplings. I have been going to Family forever and honestly am not sure how I've never reviewed it before. I even had my birthday party there last year! Anyway, I gotta go now and work on my Bon Jovi. See ya on the mic! read more

All good things must come to an end. I regretfully have to end my relationship with Family Karaoke as of this past weekend. It was a good run while it lasted, almost 10 years long with many fond memories... :( Before coming here, we stopped by No.1 Plus Chicken across the street, with the intention of chowing down on some fried chicken THERE. Unfortunately, they only take to-go orders after 1:30am. We made it just in time to get some to go. We could have eaten it in their parking lot, but decided to go straight to Family Karaoke to put our name down (I called ahead to make reservation, but was told it's first come first serve), worrying it'd be too crowded since it was Saturday night after all. To my surprise, the parking lot was near empty when we got there with only 5-6 cars altogether. We decided to just eat the chicken real quick outside knowing we would not be allowed to bring food inside. About 5mins after we took the box of chicken out, putting it on top of my car, and making sure to keep all the bones inside the box, someone who works there came out, started yelling at us about trashing the parking lot and how we were not supposed to eat in their parking lot. They must have had people eating and trashing the parking lot quite often, so it's understandable that they don't want to see that happen again. Maybe a big sign "No Eating Allowed in the Parking Lot" would help. We finished up in a hurry and threw all the trash back into my car, since we couldn't find a nearby trash can. Walking inside to the counter to reserve a room, we were rudely told, along with a big bonus of attitude, they can't give us a room. Reasons? "You guys were eating and trashing the parking lot". Mind you, we made sure to collect all of our trash, didn't even spit out anything on the ground. Not only we were accused of littering, we were treated with unnecessary attitude. We should have left right there and then, but it was getting late, and we were in the mood to sing our hearts out, so we stayed after we told them they could go outside and check to see that we didn't leave any trash. Weren't in such good mood anymore, we only stayed for merely an hour. Went to pay and found out we were put in a medium room for 4 of us (a small room can fit up to 5), when there were probably just 2 other rooms being occupied max. I kept coming back to Family Karaoke for their nice sound quality and especially when I have many good memories here with friends. After that night, it's not worth it for me to put away my pride to come back here again, especially when there are other Korean karaoke places not far from here. read more

Was here for my birthday last January and came again spontaneously on a Saturday evening around 6 pm. We were trying to compare prices between different karaoke spots in the area, and this place was comparable to the others at around $29/hour. It's unfortunate that all the places in the area are relatively pricey. They have nice rooms that are clean and do not look worn, with some cool lights in the room too. Good quality microphones and they also provide a tambourine! They have a pretty updated song list with a short list of new songs they update every month or so it seems which was exciting to see. Also a fun public karaoke area for drinks and such. Would come again for sure, just wish it wasn't so pricey! read more
