Wow, this establishment has really shady business practices. I was here with a group of eight friends in March. I had to put down a $50 deposit for a reservation, but was assured that it would be taken off once we showed up. At the end of the night, I went to pay the bill. I didn't realize they added the service charge on automatically. To be fair, I did not study the bill line by line - as we were all a little buzzed, and talking within our group of friends. I feel like they take advantage of this haziness of the end of the night. Because the option to tip takes up half the receipt so you can't miss it. I tipped them, and took a photo so we could sort out splitting the bill later. The next day, I realized that I was tricked. I tipped an extra $89 on top of a bill where they already tipped themselves $75. This is so shady and sneaky. Yes, I should've checked the itemized receipt before I signed, but I bet they get this mistake by patrons often, which makes them so much more (undeserved) money. On top of that, I just checked my credit card and they never took the $50 deposit off! So they had the audacity to charge me an extra $50 ON TOP of their outrageous price. Beware of this business. read more

Obligatory pros: The private rooms are nice. There are two TV screens and you can order alcohol to your room. The upstairs / lounge portion also seemed laidback and fun, not super wild. The location is super convenient to public transit. Actual review: Limited song selection + no YouTube cast option = why I am even here for karaoke lol? This is probably a decent spot if you're more concerned about the party/ambience aspect than the song selection. We were in a private room and you choose songs via a large touchscreen attached to the wall. The karaoke system was missing quite a few songs by mainstream American artists. Some of the songs we picked ended up being live versions instead of the studio versions, so people had a harder time singing along. The system had different languages like Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Thai, Arabic, Spanish, Italian, Hindi, etc., but these were not extensive selections. (Maybe the Mandarin selection is better though? The karaoke system appears to be Chinese.) Overall, did not find the system interface super intuitive at first, and I think having a more limited song selection means you should include YouTube cast as an option. I don't know if this is standard practice, but the bouncer had me empty my water bottle onto the street before I could enter. read more

I came here with a party of 5 and we had a reservation for one of the private rooms downstairs for karaoke. It seems like there is live karaoke upstairs if you don't have a reservation. We got 2 mics and were there for about 2.5 hours. The tablet thing that you use to queue songs was very touch insensitive, which made it a little hard to type, but the controls that it provided were nice, such as being able to turn on/off the instrumentals. Speaker quality was good, and song selection was quite large. The bathrooms here were absolutely disgusting though.. there was presumably piss all over the floor in the stalls and even the toilet paper in some of the stalls were on the floor.. sitting in the piss.. read more

Ok hear me out first. The DJ was cool. The Bouncer was great. But that damn Ciara or Sierra - however you spell it. Her attitude brought this stars down. Ignored us when we first came in.. to the point the DJ had to tell her to help us and she still stood there ignoring us for about 10 more seconds. Just a trashy attitude. I get we all have bad days but honey, you chose this job. Not me. The inside is a vibe. Just change the bartender or her attitude towards POC. I noticed when lighter individuals came in - she was much much more friendlier. Crazy right? read more

Pandora Karaoke - Ayyyy! - Karaoke Near Me - San Francisco, California

WE LOVVVEEEE PANDORA KARAOKE!! These are the absolute BEST vibes for a fun night out with friends. Affordable group karaoke available in many different themed rooms- they don't serve any food, and no outside food is allowed inside (maybe that's how they keep things looking so clean and well polished there). The themed rooms are so cool!! I wish we could play YouTube music from there too but only pre selected songs are available. Staff is super friendly and security is super kind. I had an amazing night at Pandora Karaoke with several of my friends !!!! read more

Came here with a group after the baseball game and we were really excited to check this place out! The rooms are cool, there were 6 of us and it was comfortable. First 10 minutes, the songs were skipping and had to call for help. It ended up working just fine throughout the rest of the night though! Song selections were meh, there were a lot of songs that weren't on there. But overall it was a good experience! read more

I love this place! The staff members are all so friendly and fun- from the floor manager, bartenders, servers, security, etc etc. I always have such a great time here. The rooms are really nice and clean too, with top tier karaoke systems. The prices are very reasonable. Great place to go for birthdays or special events! read more

Fun place to sing your heart out with friends/family! They have two floors and the top floor is the main area where the bar is located. The downstairs has restrooms and is more for private events/karaoke. Sound system in the room we sang in was pretty decent and easily fit about 8-10 people. read more

came here on a monday and they are doing 50% off for private karaoke rooms which it came down to $30 an hour. Tatiana was super sweet. we were having AC issues, and she was super helpful to resolve the problem. They not only have private rooms but also an open mic too. If you are in the area, give this place a try! read more

Really cool spot, Awesome dj, fun atmosphere. Unfortunately the bartenders aren't the best and drinks are EXPENSIVE.

Probably the best karaoke bar I've been so far. Came w my team for a team event. Phenomenal service, upscale and high-tech, clean and stylish, so i liked it. They have private rooms downstairs but also has a stage where ppl can go up and sing. read more

I'm a huge karaoke fan. I love to sing. And this place is pretty good with their sound system. And the DJ is very good at what he's doing. Gets the crowd going all night ! The drink I had was "cognac sour", and it was too sour to my taste. I personally like how they placed the TV monitors all around so ppl can see the lyrics even they're sitting on the side. The downside for me is the location. The neighborhood is not the best area in SF in my opinion. Lot of homeless on the street. I'd pretty somewhere I can walk alone and not watching over my shoulder. read more

I'm surprised I haven't reviewed this place before! I've been here for both the private room karaoke as well as the open bar karaoke in the lounge and had a fantastic experience every time! Their private rooms are nice, and you can order alcohol straight to your room. I came here for my birthday a couple years ago and had a round of shots along with other drinks. Recently I've been here a couple times for the lounge karaoke. It's usually not too packed even on a weekend night, and it draws an interesting and eclectic crowd. I'd highly recommend Pandora for any karaoke/music lover! read more

This is a very nice karaoke place! They have a lot of private rooms and a cozy open area. Everything seemed clean and well-organized. We walked in on Saturday evening and luckily got a private room for a couple of hours. However, I recommend making a reservation ahead of time, especially on weekends. The staff was very responsive, which was great. Personally, I thought it was a bit overpriced, but we still had a great time singing and enjoying drinks. read more

Area outside is a little sketch, but inside was gorgeous. Fun and spacious. Room was fun along with the machine. 6 bathroom all gender as well. Bartender was nice and drinks were tasty. Overall a good experience! read more

Been here couple times now for karaoke and they have a good selection of private rooms of different sizes downstairs. You also have the option to sing on stage upstairs in front of the public if you're brave as well. They have a good selection of a lot of music and they recently renovated their rooms so it's a lot nicer and cleaner now as well. They also allow you to bring in outside food which was awesome. Their drinks are definitely expensive, which is the main downside but otherwise good experience overall read more

The rooms are great for parties. The service staff were very helpful. I wanted to try the food but I had ate dinner before arriving for the karaoke room. read more

My friends and I always have a great time whenever we go to Pandora Karaoke! Right when you walk in, you feel the energy from open karaoke by the bar and everyone looks like they're having a great time. Fun for people watching and vibing. Downstairs are different sized, themed rooms that have the latest songs (great selection of Chinese music as well). The staff is super friendly have always gone above and beyond! read more

Came to Pandora's with a group of 11 and we reserved a room beforehand. Upstairs had karaoke and the bar and the downstairs had the private rooms and bathrooms. We ended up in the ciroc themed room, which looked modern and clean. They gave us 2 mics and explained how to queue songs up and order drinks. I was surprised by the song selection, there were very current songs from many genres which was cool. Our reservation was for 2 hours and it flew by! We went upstairs afterwards, but I preferred the rooms. Karaoke upstairs is laidback and the crowd is very supportive and fun. Staff were all so friendly and helpful, from the ladies working the private rooms, to the bartenders, to the bouncers. The only downside was the drink quality itself - the old fashioned I got was not good at all, especially for the price. Overall, a pretty fun spot to come with a big group in a more upscale setting for karaoke. read more

Wonderful venue! Extremely friendly staff who is kind, cheerful, and knowledgeable. The vibe is super chill, very San Francisco! I did three songs there. I had a blast! Will return again whenever I come visit the West Coast. 5 stars! https://youtu.be/Rm7es3LdnHo?si=m6Je5qTYyRmzjBV6 https://youtu.be/vjymtSujwYQ?si=b4EDcek65ahU2yMm https://youtu.be/ydm_6IEe3xw?si=utF1v-w2OUz1SkgC Thank you, Pandora! read more

Came here Monday night with a friend after dinner. There were surprisingly many customers already participating in karaoke. The space was clean and very spacious. There were a few seats surrounding the stage, and then tables behind those for larger groups. They have the option for private room karaoke, but we decided to participate in the lounge karaoke. You scan a QR code and input the songs you want to sing or ask the DJ if you can't find your specific song on the site. There are multiple screens above the stage so anyone can see the lyrics. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Would definitely stop by again if I'm ever in the area! read more

This was a super fun spot to chill and have a great time. We just stayed on the main level. Drinks were good the karaoke DJ kept it moving and the crowd was diverse. Love this spot and we will definitely be back read more

Thinks to know if trying to book a room here. 1) There phone doesn't work! You have to email them with date, time of when you want a room and number of people. 2) There are different room designs! Make sure to book online before booking so you can pick your favorite! 3) All rooms have a 18 ish percent service fee 4) Fee for all credit and debit cards and try to bring cash! 5) No food! But you can bring some in! 6) They have parking! I had a great time at Pandora Karaoke and I highly recommend it for anyone who is trying to do Karaoke in the city. While it is a little bit on the pricer side, it is work the experience if you are looking for where that is much nicer and has all the current songs! One thing I don't like about some karaoke rooms is I overheat but the room was so well air conditioned I was actually cold!(which is great) read more

I came here for my birthday and Lorenzo (the DJ) made our night so special!! Huge shoutout to him!!!

We came to Pandora on a Wednesday with a party of 8. You can reserve a room online and the rooms for parties of 8 or more go for a rate of $85 per hour. It was quite empty on a Wednesday, but they do have a discount on Tuesdays so I'd recommend coming then! Rooms were clean and they have a new touch screen system with lots of new songs so it was easy to navigate. Amy took care of us at the front desk as well as all of our drinks! She was an absolute star employee and was very attentive. Drinks - Tokoyo tea, AMF and the cranberry long island tea were STRONG. We could not believe how much alcohol was in these drinks. With fees each drink came out to $20, so honestly for the strength of the drink and the large cup, I wouldn't say it was outrageous. Total for 2 hours of karaoke for 8 people came out to $224 ($28 per person) with service fees and such. I always have a great time here at Pandora, just be prepared to spend on the room and drinks! read more

We went last night for one of my best friends birthday. The atmosphere was great, the place was beautiful. There was really a good vibe about this place and we loved it. The drinks were hella good too. I would have given 5 stars but the dj would not let me and my friends get on the mic for nothing. Kept skipping us and letting people get on that had already a bunch of turns. Besides that I loved it here and I will be coming back again soon!!! Thank you Pandora read more

Best time to have fun is during the weekdays not many people and do need to wait for a room! Great sound system and decent pricing. read more

I can safely say that I love karaoke now. I was iffy at first because this was a company team bonding event, but I'm glad we did it. Pandora is split in two levels. Top (street level) is a free for all and you're able to sing and watch other people sing in a public setting. Downstairs is where the private rooms are and where you'll probably feel the most comfortable in my opinion. Originally we weren't going to do a private room because we heard it was going to be $150 per hour and 3 hours minimum and that wasn't going to cut it for a company event. Flash forward, we arrived, and one of my colleagues decide to talk with the host to see if there's a cheaper alternative and huzzah - 2 hours for $85 each. Worked better for us! We waited 10 mins for them to clean the Jameson room and off we went. The host explained the procedure here - utilize the machine in the room to pick and queue songs, QR code to the side to order drinks that'll be delivered directly to your room, and a giant fan in the corner for you to use and control intensity. Overall, not much to say. Their drink options didn't seem like much via the QR code so I'd suggest going to the bar instead. The songs come either with the singer or without if you feel like that's more your vibe and this was a fun experience. Only thing I would complain about was their bathrooms downstairs. They're single stalls and 1 of them didn't have a working light and another didn't flush. read more

If you are Latino I highly suggest you don't go to this place... unfortunately. I went last night (June 19) with my wife and brother in law to have fun with some karaoke, but for a non understandable reason the dj thought that 30 second of karaoke was enough for me, even when everyone else just played their whole song. Maybe because I choose a Spanish song? Not sure, but when I asked him, he right away sent security people and kicked me out of the place just like that... They don't give a shit about the money I spent or the tip gave to the dj, they were impolite and discriminating... Basically ruined my night and will be reminded as bad experience in San Francisco, so if you are Latino, if you are coming from another state or country... YOU SHOULDNT SOPT HERE at least you want to face some discrimination... LATINO COMMUNITY MAKE A FAVOR TO US AND DONT VISIT THIS PLACE read more

Lots of fun! I've been here a number of times, and it's a great place for team events or just with friends. The waitresses are friendly and attentive all and all staff have always seemed super professional and focused on making sure we had a good time. The karaoke rooms have solid equipment and audio, the drinks are great, and the evenings are always memorable. Will keep coming back more often!! read more

Came here last Sunday, July 2nd spontaneously with some friends. Pandora was completely empty and we were the first one inside. We had the entire bar to ourselves for most of the night, a group of seven. It was fantastic being able to do whatever we wanted, sing on stage, mess up, get drinks at the bar. The DJ got some mad singing skills. And the bar lady was cool too. She made us excellent and strong drinks. I believe her name was Amy? I was pretty drunk I forgot. But she and the DJ were super cool. My entire group had a lot of fun just being drunk and being at Pandora read more

this karaoke bar is an incredible nexus between a lot of different worlds in a stigmatized and completely magical area. shout out to whoever was working door for being a firm centering presence and bless the kj and all the workers for letting me sing my song last minute. big love to pandora the karaoke bar! read more

I probably called 10 times just to book a reservation within the hours of business and they only picked up once saying they were by themselves so they couldn't help me out and to call back later. I call back an hour later and they still do not pick up the phone. I truly do not know how they make business. read more

Awesomeness at its finest! The KJ upstairs was truly awesome! Wasn't there for the private rooms so I can't review but the main floor show was great! Will be back when I'm in town! read more
