What a cool place! We went there for the trivia night. It was 2000's music trivia. We bombed at that. But we did have a chance to try their food. I had their Rockstar Chili. It was so delicious! The fight amount of kick and flavor. Really wanted a second bowl. Bug will just have to go back again. The wait staff was on top of things and made sure we had what we needed. read more

Came in and it's what you'd expect for a karaoke bar, there is a stage, bar seating, tables, and a hightop bar seating. I had a strawberry margarita which was decent 6/10 and a gummy bear shot which was $3 on the hour at 9pm and switched every hour. Enjoyed some karaoke and the server was very nice. FYI they were only serving pizza and chilli. read more

Came here for my birthday and a couple times before. Great karaoke list of all music genres with a stage to give you that big time feel. Food wise only had wings and tenders here and both are really good. Good staff and drinks here will not break the bank at. Now to me the drinks are sugary so beware. But that's really the only negative thing I can of, so yeah a great weekend karaoke place (if you wanna sing sign up asap cause it does get full quick). read more

Very horrible place. I was there less then 10 mins and I got attacked there. The people were friends with the female bartender and because I was alone they told the police (who I called) it was my fault. The cops did nothing. Also when I walk in earlier to go to the bathroom people were doing drugs on the counter there. read more

Hadn't been to Renegades for several months, cause weekends have too many singers, and the Thurs Host wasn't very friendly. This past Thursday changed all that. My former favorite Host and Duet partner, Denice, was back! We did Sugar, by Maroon Five, and it came out great. Think I'll come back on Thursdays when I can, as long as she's there! read more

I am a regular here and I love the bar so much but very upsetting that dances breaks are no longer a thing

Place has gone downhill use to love this bar too... went in with some friends last night, no kitchen werent serving food we had to door dash food to the bar and our drinks were served in Styrofoam smaller then small cups they couldnt even give us glassware! Waitress too forever to get drinks bar was overwhelming loud on the mics. Would not come back Sad this use to be the best bar around! Terrible wont be back ! read more

This place has definitely improved recently! I had a horrible experience in the past, but decided to give it another try. It used to have slow service, watered down drinks, and just a bad vibe. But now, the bartender with the blonde hair and glasses is absolutely amazing, and the whole place is just all around better. Will definitely be back!! Karaoke on Thursdays is always a fun time too. read more

Nicest staff, attentive and helpful. Comfortable setting inside, and the parking was really nice, too.The food was absolutely delicious, and the fact that they catered to my very specific wants in terms of how I wanted that food was nothing short of stellar. Good prices, great beer, and a fun atmosphere. Love it - can't wait to go back for wrestling again, just so I can get some more of the delicious food. read more

This is one of my favorite karaoke spots! I have been coming here very regularly for over a month now to sing. Pretty decent selection of songs. The bar actually has a stage for the singers, and they now offer karaoke 6 nights a week starting around 9:00. The drinks are fairly priced. I personally love the renegades punch. Their burgers and mozzarella sticks are amazing. There is such a wonderful community here of regulars who are all friendly and welcoming to the scene, and many of the singers are actually really good! The DJ's Al and D-Nice are so fun and personable, and the staff is great too. I truly feel at home here. I only lowered my review by one star because sometimes the service can be a bit off when they are busy, but overall, I love this bar. I will continue to come here regularly to sing and have a wonderful night out! read more

Rockstarz Bar - Karaoke stage and DJ D-Nice - Karaoke Near Me - Garden City, Michigan

A bar known for lousy karaoke, slutty wait staff, watered down drinks and overpriced food. I caught the clap from one of their barmaids

Showed up early as hell before anyone was even there, thought I'd be able to sing at least 3 songs, put my songs in early and only got to do one song the whole night. meanwhile people that were obviously friends of the karaoke dj got to sing several songs in a short period of time. I check with the dj at the booth to make sure i was in the rotation she said yeah, 2 hours later I asked why I hadn't been called up to sing and she said we thought you left. That is the dumbest excuse I've ever heard, how would you know if I left or not when you never called my name? Saturday night Karaoke should be called watch my friends sing songs and you other people can have one a piece regardless of what order you put your slips in. Not going there anymore, plenty of better places to karaoke and believe me if your at a bar from 8 to 1am that does karaoke and you only get to sing one song that is horse shit. read more

We joined friends here to celebrate a birthday. I was surprised that this place charged a fee to reserve tables and didn't allow outside cake -- rejecting outside food, I get it, but cake, come on? The cake they served was mediocre, and it was far too expensive for what it was. With regard to food and drink, fine for this type of place -- lots of fried food and watered down drinks, nothing too interesting, but not that disappointing either. Service here was okay, reasonable speed, but lots of inaccurate bills (items on different slips). It was handled pretty well and calmly. The karaoke crowd was fun. There were some talented folks and some energetic ones, sometimes they were the same people -- usually not. Still the crowd was engaged and supportive. read more

Bud light and Miller lite is cheap during Tigers' games. The karaoke DJ is bored out of her mind and won't honor requests, even though she says "sure!, okay". Lights are up and some guy that calls himself Sensual is the star of the bar. It's not Country, it's not good for a Saturday night. It's only good for a cheap beer, and not a good cheap beer. If you decide to go, take A LOT of friends. You will have a lot of space and drink for cheap. read more

Had a blast there, great atmosphere friendly staff and patrons. I will definitely be going back there again for karaoke soon!

The waitress was amazing at first then she left without notice and left us without any waitress for at least an hour and to top it off she took my credit card with her.. they asked her to bring it back and she came back up with it and I left her with no tip because of this ridiculous activity and she proceeded to add her own tip to my card! This is extremely illegal and I will be contacting the proper authorities! This is not the first time this has happened at this bar! This bar sucks and I recommend just going to chatters down the road! You will receive way better service! I have gave this place many chances and will never be returning! Terrible experience! read more

Man concern is for a karokee bar the sounding mixing is way off couldn't hear myself sing most of the time and everything was served in paper cups read more

Great food and fun environment. Friday and Saturday are pretty busy here and karaoke is always good. Would recommend. Their renegade burger is killer. Try it out read more

Believe me, I want to give 5 stars to any dedicated karaoke bar with a kick-ass songbook and $4 pitchers, but I will never go back to Rockstarz again. Number 1 - It isn't really a karaoke bar. Sure, they offer karaoke every night, but there's a reason this kind of business doesn't thrive in Garden City (or anywhere else in southeastern Michigan, apparently). There just isn't enough popular interest in a 7-day a week karaoke bar. But the locals are plenty interested in $4 pitchers and 25 cent drafts on Sundays. So people who don't care for karaoke show up for the cheap booze and the singers are made to feel like an annoyance. Nobody claps, nobody cares. Seriously, even the KJ sat at the bar all jaded-faced, barely bothering to interrupt his shitty dance music playlist for the singers. Okay, the "singer" contingent consisted only of me and Dan R. but this is a karaoke bar, right? Number 2 - The atmosphere blows. Do we really need five contiguous flatscreens to watch one Seinfeld rerun? Isn't there something on ESPN that I can block out more easily? The waitstaff outnumbered the customers 2:1, but instead of sending some of them home, the management made a couple of the servers scrub chairs in the middle of the bar. When the servers got bored they all shouted to each other across the room like there were no customers around. Granted, there weren't many of us, but this is a business, right? Number 3 - heard a white guy in a cammo cap drop the n-bomb like it was nothing at all 5 star prices & songbook plus 1 star atmosphere divided by n-bomb dropping jackass = 0 stars, but it's Yelp, so I have to give it 1 read more

I don't really give out one stars at all... i think this might be my first. But my wife and my wife's friend and her boyfrien decided to come on out here on a Saturday night after the UM-Notre Dame game because the neighborhood bar we normally karaoke at was closed for remodeling or something. So this was the only karaoke in the greater Canton area on Saturday. And it was terrible. First off, we got there around 10:30, and it was almost full, which seemed okay... but all around us were obnoxiously loud large groups. The drinks were overpriced and weak at best, and while the stage and set up is probably better than most places, the atmosphere was just plain... terrible. Then when my wife noticed that there were 3 or 4 other groups/singers getting to sing ahead of her and her friend who put the song in at like, 10:45, we had to wait nearly to 12:45 before she was even on deck. At that point, a fight broke out between a white chick and a black chick for who knows what. But anyways, the DJ obviously caters to regulars and probably people that tip him which isn't really fair because if you want people to come back and bring other people, you should treat everyone fairly. Above all, this place is mediocre at best, i'm sure it's a dive during the week and maybe its just not a weekend place to go. I'd rather spend time at the Bowery or even go to downtown Dearborn instead of this dump. read more

This place is pretty interesting. And not in a "ooooh, this place is INTERERSTING!!", but more of a, "umm, okay. wow." way. They have a stage. Nice! They have props (cue guitar solo!). They have a microphone and they have food and drinks. (So far, so good!) What more can I say? The crowd was a bit different than what I am used to (yes, I know, this is in the burbs of Detriot), but there were definitely some regulars and it was PACKED. People were singing and having a good time, which is what you want at a karaoke bar. It was 70's night so you were supposed to pick a 70's song, which many people did, but many people sang other things. They give you free popcorn, which seemed really nice - until I found out that the popcorn may or may not be a few days old. My main problem with this place was the drink selection and the drinks themselves. It is nice to have a lady roaming around asking you for shots every 15 minutes, but when you say no, the first 3 times - I am pretty sure you are not going to say "Yeah!!" the next 15. Super annoying. And, since when did I want radio active drinks with no alcohol? Never. I am not TOO picky about my fruity drinks, but when I want a fruity drink, I don't want to feel like I may end up getting some terminal illness from it. My partner in crime and siblings also were not impressed at the low-alcohol content in their alcoholic drinks, but we were there to sing, so we cringed down our drinks and proceeded to try and enjoy ourselves. Except, we really couldn't since the DJ gets to decide what HE wants to hear and proceeds to bump up songs that 1) fit with the theme and 2) are what his regulars want. NOT COOL. Waiting 3 hours to sing a song you selected when you first walked in is a bit of a buzz kill. Not to mention that when you first walked in, there were only 5 other people in the place. If we go here again- fine, but I'm bringing my own booze and singing my own songs in the corner a read more

Great band the hatchetmen they were playing the night I went. This bar was previously Jamie Coe's bar, but was sold after he died. Use to go there all the time. Had a lot of fun. So after a few years I decide to go back. The band was awesome, I don't know about Karaoke, but ..... I had a very large Long Island Iced Tea because they did not have any red wine available! Oh well, never heard of a bar not having wine!!! Oh well. It's still a dive bar as in the past, but it has been updated quite a bit and looks a lot less divier, if that makes sense! Would I go back? Probably! But, the place was quite empty, sad to see that! read more

Experience was fine , waitress was nice but not very attentive. The place was dead , it was about 11pm on a Monday so to be expected. The worst part of the experience was days after. We paid for our 13 dollar tab with a card, and tipped in cash, yet a tip was STILL added to the card. This isn't the first time I've heard of this happening to people. Moral of the story , the bartender will rip you off so either pay cash or skip! Probably won't be back. read more

Well - this bar was previously called Jamie's and I would see local bands here. After a while, it became a total DUMP as Jamie's, I think it was maybe towards 'the end' of Jamie's ownership or management. I remember the bathrooms not even having toilet paper let alone paper towels, and no napkins behind the bar to steal and use in a sanitary manner. I came here last fall as "Rockstarz" and it was so-so....meh. Just a bar. We stopped in, had a couple drinks, then went somewhere else. So, last night when someone I know suggested we meet there and have a few drinks, I agreed but wasn't super enthused. Well, I was in for a surprise - the place had a pretty good face lift since I was in there last fall! The stage area had been switched and there is a pretty nice dance floor now, and the decor has been re-vamped nicely. It looks a lot cleaner and nicer. Now, I don't mind dive bars or even dump bars - I don't care who slaps my booze around for the most part - I'm just saying that since the bands I used to see don't seem to play here any more, Rockstarz isn't a place I'd generally go to on purpose any more. I've got dump bars closer to home in Canton I can choose from. The sign advertised "Karaoke tonight" but I was there until about midnight and saw no such karaoke. I have heard it's a good place to go for karaoke though; I myself am not a karaoke-er. There weren't a lot of people in the place either - Maybe 5 or 6 at it's "busiest" last night. Bar staff was friendly and quick to get more drinks - I would hope so considering that the place was kind of dead. They also had some drink specials ($3.50 call which is a pretty OK deal, and beer specials). I had about 4 Mich Ultras and I think my bar tab was $8. I don't know if that was a fluke or not but I wasn't complaining. I'd go back now knowing that at least I have something to wipe with when I use the restroom....though the paper towel thing had no paper towels in it. The bathrooms are the only thing that pretty much have not changed there, but overall I'd still return. read more

The crowd was great! I had a great time! The food and drinks could be better... the drinks were a little watered down! The food was just O.K. read more

A full house at the all karaoke bar! Standing room only!! The yearly contest going on had a top prize of $2000!!! The bar menu had many options from appetizers to burgers. I got the batter fried mushrooms and they were delicious; a portion to share. I was not happy with the 18% gratuity that was automatically added to my bill when I was a party of 1. I would have given a nice tip anyway because the service was very good even though the place was very crowded and I didn't have a seat! read more

Rockstarz Bar - Greatest karaoke Dj ever! - Karaoke Near Me - Garden City, Michigan

The service here can be hit or miss. I usually go to see my friend sing in a karaoke bar and do not always drink. On the nights that I do the service is a lot better than on the nights that I just choose to have a snack or get dinner. The kitchen Can be slow but the food is decent bar food. Pretty entertaining place but wouldn't make a trip out of my way. read more

This place sucks. Horrible service. I forgot to pay for my drinks and they wouldn't let me pay. Yes it sounds crazy but I like to pay for the service that was rendered. The little bit service I did get. I swear if I was 5 years younger ole girl would have gotten knocked out. read more

If you're a singer I can't see any reason to give this place a poor review. Granted, I've just been there once, but from what I saw and experienced this place is really going for it, and I respect that. There were a couple of minor reasons I didn't give it a 5 star review, but overall this place was great and a lot of fun. First off, the stage is one of the better ones you're going to step on for karaoke. Usually, you're crammed in some random corner of a bar not designed to accommodate music/karaoke. Not here. You got a real stage you step up on with a decent size dance floor in front of that so the "clod factor" (people walking in front of you while you sing, talking over you, etc.) is not an issue. The challenge now is that all eyes are on you, and you have to really deliver a performance. Well, that's cool and what karaoke is all about, right? The KJ booth and songbook were conveniently located at the back of the bar so you didn't have to tromp in front of current singers, and the songbook was on a lighted pedestal so you didn't have to squint at tiny lettering in a dark bar. Pro. My only beef with the songbook was that the Artist section ended at "K", and it looked a little tore up (what karaoke book in a bar isn't?). I don't think that was a real issue because it seemed from the slips you could just put down artist/song and the KJ would make it happen for you if they had it. We rolled in really late (midnight or so) on a Monday night and the parking lot was packed and the bar was surprisingly full. The singers were getting good response and when the pleasant waitress informed us that domestic bottled beer was on special for $1 a beer I thought I had found karaoke heaven. What's so cool about Michigan is that it's basically Canada so they treat Canadian beers like their own so the g/f and I were drinking the mighty fine Canadian Labatt's Blue for $1 a pop. Nicccceeeee. Without having to fuss or fight, we got up to sing two songs each even though we blew in so late. Again, nice. My kind of persnickety observation about the sound was that the track could have been louder for my taste to give it more of a "live" feel, and there was no direct monitor on stage for the singer. I could hear myself well enough "out there", but there is something more satisfying about hearing a "direct" feed from a monitor for the singer. Not a deal breaker at all, just could have been tweaked a little sweeter in my view. This place reminds me of a place I go to in Burbank, CA, called "Dimples" (which I've reviewed), which is one of the funnest places I've been for karaoke. Like Dimples, it's all about the karaoke. I especially liked the cam capturing your performance and projecting it on a big screen. Pretty cool. Note to management: why not copy DImples and do a quick snippet of the "playback" immediately after the singer leaves the stage, and/or streaming the video feed live on the internet so I can watch the singers from my computer when I'm not there. This place was a welcome change from places that have karaoke as an afterthought. If you're a hardcore karaoke junkie I don't see how you couldn't be happy. Keep on rockin, Rockstarz. I will be back. read more

If I could rate a 0, I would. HORRIFIC experience. Extremely racist bar. Waitress kept informing us that she was taking smoking breaks. She wasn't knowledgeable about ANYTHING on the menu. Told me my drinks were a certain price, then when the bill came it was double the price. She told me, "Well that's too bad, you have to pay." Asked to speak with a manager. Manager tells me, "The waitress is my daughter and she would never quote you that price. So pay or I'll call the cops." Her daughter (the waitress) comes back over and says, "You don't have to pay, just never come back to our bar again. You're not welcome here." I told her I would never step foot in there again. She proceeds to tell me, "You wish you were white because I'm pretty with pretty hair." As I was leaving, her mother (the manager) is screaming from behind the bar, "DON'T EVER COME BACK HERE!" Also yelling profanities. The ONLY good thing there was the karaoke lady. She was awesome. Music selection was mainly rock/pop. read more

As Rockstarz they were usually ok. A decent amount of people, good service. First one back since the chance over to renegades (they seem to be closed early or on random days a lot) and I'm sorely disappointed. No greeting. Had to walk up to the bar to get a drink on a Friday night and bartender acted like I was bothering her. Then when I wanted a 2nd I had to wait about 3 min, again at the bar, just to even see someone who worked there. Best karaoke bar in michigan turned dive bar. Only bonus is they have country music almost exclusively now. read more

If I have to give a star, I give only one, and reluctantly at that. I have never been to a more horrible establishment than this one! First of all, DON'T go by their website! It's very much FALSE advertisement. The "specials" they have on there doesn't exist, they didn't have a cook til 9pm???, then when they did, they were out of most of the items on the menu! The staff was terrible and the drinks are definitely watered down. The WORST part to me though was the Karaoke itself. Usually, the Karaoke host can sing really well...not this one! And, the sound system was among the worst I've ever heard! I can honestly say I will NEVER return to this establishment! read more

Went to celebrate 21st birthday, first time back since it has changed. I am very sad to see what has happened to the old rockstarz which I frequented often before rockstarz closed it was packed on a Saturday night by 9pm. The new remodeled renegades interior is nice but the lively atmosphere is gone the bar was over half empty. Music was way to loud couldn't hear what anyone was saying. The party I was with was all disappointed in the experience. Waitress took forever neglected the table, clearly over served some quests. Will not be surprised if this bar closes within the next year or two. Won't be coming back. read more

Went to Rockstarz for the first time this past weekend. The ambiance was nice, and it was fun watching the karaoke performers, but I had a terrible experience with my server who called me delusional because I told her that she only charged me for one wing appetizer. I had two orders. She was combative and argumentative when all I was trying to do was to pay for an extra order that she did not charge me. read more

I was really looking forward to Rockstarz. I love karaoke and there are often songs you just can't find. When I called to reserve a table for myself, my boyfriend and the friends who were celebrating his birthday with us, the staffer on the phone told me the place as a wireless system that lets them get you any song that's been officially recorded -- anything. When my boyfriend and I pulled into the only handicapped spot, it was full of bar staff, all smoking and hanging out. I'm pretty mellow, but had no idea why they'd stand around in a parking space. One waitress -- outside smoking -- told me my car was too close to the sidewalk. I said "I need room on the other side to get the wheelchair out." She made a face at me and told me to move my car afterwards. Then she mentioned it to by boyfriend when he was on his way to the john later. The place has a computer system and can download any song, but the DJ won't play stuff he doesn't like. Instead, he 1) takes you out of the rotation 2) doesn't tell you he's done so -- you just wait forever and then have to go ask him what's up and 3) is then rude to you. The last time I sang, he called me to the stage, I stood up to singn and then he then said"Aaaafter I play another dance song." He laughted at that. When I got to the stage, after the song that no one danced to, he'd already cued up my song -- before I'd even touched the mike. Rockstarz is supposed to be a karaoke place and a lot of people put in to sing, but the DJ does dance music at least half the time. People dance to roughly 1 in 3 songs. The bar did a great of of ruining our fun night out. The patrons weren't ay nicer -- one guy was singing a slow song, and I danced with my boyfriend. My BF uses a wheelchair, and I guess this was funny to the singer because he came up behind me while we were dancing and did stuff. I didn't know why people were laughing til I looked behind me. The bouncer -- the only polite person in the place -- told me the DJ is something close to an owner. Or has pull, so I don't think complaining would be worth it. Ironically, we came to this place because a friend -- who ended up not going to karaoke -- told me to little dive we've been to for karaoke (not a huge selection of songs, but the KJ and the wait staff are super nice, and patrons are nice and polite even when you don songs they don't know) wasn't up to a party. If you like karaoke and are tempted by the idea you can sing any song, don't go here. The KJ won't even play songs IN HIS BOOK if he doesn't feel like it. You end up having a smaller selection, because he only wants to play Top 40 radio, new country and hip hop involving anal sex and "B***ches". read more

I love going to Rockstarz. I'm not normally a karaoke singer, but being able to get up on a real stage is fun for me. I usually don't sing, but I will get up with a friend and play on the drums. I went there this weekend for the first time in a few months, and I really liked the new lay out. They moved the stage so that the whole bar can see the stage. My favorite drink is the blue slushy! read more
