Not really a place to eat inasmuch as a place to just hang out, have drinks and - most importantly…read more- sing your heart out in karaoke no matter your skill level! My friends and I came here on a Wednesday night around 8pm and basically spent all of our time out in the front where the bar is since that's where open karaoke is. To queue songs to sing, you need to use a website called Healsonic to search for the song titles or artist names (you get to it using a QR code). You write down your initials, the song number of the song you want to sing and the song title, then pass it to someone behind the counter to the immediate left of the entrance. Song choices are not limited to just songs in English; you can choose songs from a variety of languages, and I got a chance to sing one of my favorite Cantonese oldies at one point. From past experiences singing karaoke here, there's always at least one mic out of the two passed around the crowd that isn't working properly and I end up singing louder than needed on that one mic. Regardless, my friends and I have always had a great time laughing, testing our vocals and just enjoying ourselves as if we were clubbing! I haven't yet been to any of their karaoke rooms, though I do hear prices for them are relatively high from others who've used them. One of my friends and I got their My Melody drink, which consists of coconut cream, pineapple and a pink sugar rim. Drink tasted kinda cheesy... literally. Must have been the cream but I downed the drink fast; it was refreshing for the environment (though a little heavy on the vocal cords) and not too sweet. It is on the pricier end, about $8 before tax. This is a well-run place regardless of the number of people that fill up open karaoke and the karaoke rooms themselves. Staff are friendly and acommodating especially with refilling water, following up on karaoke queuing mistakes and serving drinks. I see myself and my friends coming back here more often!

First, the song selection system wasn't the easiest to use. The device, tucked into the corner of the room, had a lot going on--options to order food, search by language, browse top songs, etc.--which is great in theory, but I didn't find it very user-friendly. I searched for Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga, and Rosé, but none of them showed up. I must've done something wrong, but I couldn't figure it out, so I resorted to scrolling through artists alphabetically. Another issue was the lyrics on the screen-- the highlighted words didn't match up with the song, making it hard to sing along if you didn't already know the lyrics by heart. On top of that, there was no way to skip intros or interludes, so you had to sit through the full music video unless you skipped the song entirely. Also, no tambourine in the room? Is that not a thing anymore? I wanted to play along while my friends sang, but apparently, that wasn't an option. Lastly, the way our session ended felt abrupt. I'm used to getting a time check before our booking is up, but instead, we were just told to leave when our time was over. It wasn't a huge deal, but it did feel a little rushed. Overall, we had fun, but the experience could've been better.

They had a large sandwich board sing on the sidewalk to help you find it. The staff was very friendly making sure we had everything we needed and even upgraded us to a larger room and gave us a complimentary extra 15 minutes. They checked in throughout the evening and were so kind. The karaoke setup itself worked fine, but several of the songs didn't have the correct lyrics which made for a humorous mix up. The lyric videos were also very odd - playing on top of videos that sometimes had nothing to do with the song or artist. If you're like me a practiced your karaoke song down to a T, you'll find it funny when the words on screen aren't correct lol. That's my only suggestion for improvement! They have a small bar with bottled water and canned drinks (including pop).

Let me preface that typically, I recommend The Crescent to anyone I know that would appreciate a…read moregood karaoke bar. But tonight I received the most aggressive and ridiculous interaction with their staff. I have lived on Capitol Hill for ten years, and have been going to The Crescent casually throughout that time with no terribly bad experiences. But tonight, when a glass was broken and I instinctively went to help clean up (I understand staff does not want customers to help with broken glass and I should have left it alone, but I instinctively moved one large piece and then stopped) I was yelled at quickly and aggressively by a member of the staff. I do not know this woman, she is not usually working when I go in, so I'm not sure if she was hired temporarily for Pride weekend or if she was a new hire. What I do know is that she did not care how she came across to me, or anyone else in the vicinity, and even came outside after I decided to leave and continued to yell at me as I left. I can't attest to this personally, but after she yelled at me in the bar, I was told by other patrons that she had been aggressive and strict about kicking people out for various reasons. I am a loyal patron here, but am disheartened by the behavior of this staff member who made things mean and aggressive in what could have been a benign moment. With many years in the service industry myself I know situations can get stressful and guests don't always do what you would like them to do, but it is quite literally your job to handle those situations. I know typically The Crescent is a very positive and kind place, and hope someone who exhibits this kind of behavior will not continue to represent them.

The other three didn't put out sound. - English song list is very lacking. - Popular songs are not updated frequently. We ended up going to a small local bar, which was ALSO doing Karaoke that night, and they had more recent songs than the dedicated karaoke store. That was really disappointing.

On Fri-Sun from 7-9 is open mic comedy; karaoke from 9-1am. Come on a Thursday for live music. Parking sucked. We were two blocks away before we found a spot. So happens we caught the comedy show and there are some very funny up and comers in Seattle. Fair warning: it gets a bit raunchy and personal. However, the regulars seem to really dig this. We did get our chance to sing and it was a bit wild, in a good way. Great singers/horrible singers, most importantly, a supportive crowd. Pro Tip: Show up early and get your request for karaoke in. It started getting busy about an hour in, then you're looking at a long wait. The drinks are well made and not too expensive. The food is surprisingly good. A friendly bartender also helped make for a fun night!

The tablets for entering your info and song run terribly slow. Bathrooms are clean and well-stocked, though not labeled well--women's restroom is straight down the hall, men's is to the right just after the photo booth. Unless they're meant to be unisex, but I don't think that's the case? This place is PACKED wall to wall after 8pm Fridays and Saturdays, and I've never dropped in those nights where it wasn't an upbeat and pretty cheery vibe. When I say packed, I mean that you should wear an outfit where you can take off layers, because it gets WARM. On the weekends the song queues can get LONG but you're able to manually check where you're at in line via the tablets. If you wanna leave before 12am, get there and put your song in no later than 8pm. Expect a $5 cover on weekends, too, though sometimes it's $10. Which is crazy. And yet, I still pay it... People are super nice and if you aren't bringing a posse out with you, a lot of folks don't mind you sitting with them at their tables if it's busy and they have an extra seat open. A lot of times people will get down by the stage and dance to songs people are performing, which is just the best when it happens. All in all, the Hula Hula crowd tends to have a great mindset for karaoke. All about having a good time to good music.
