    I was in a group of eight who went to VoKo for three+ hours on a Saturday night. We reserved a medium room, and it was more than big enough...and also very clean, comfortable, and cool! We sang MANY songs, ate MANY snacks, and drank MANY drinks. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The YouTube pairing system works like a dream. A day later, all of my friends are still texting about how much fun we had and planning our next trip to VoKo next month. I absolutely positivity highly recommend VoKo.

    This place had such good service! We started at the bar with Cody and he made such amazing drinks for us. We tried the girl crush and boy crush and they crushed! And the food was yummy! And the service from Carlton was super helpful! Definitely would recommend to friends!

    My friends and I had so much fun here! We all liked the bar tender he was super friendly and he got in a conversation with my best friend about raves. The room was a good size and we just connected to YouTube since we thought it'd be easier. This was a great experience.

    This place gets five stars for our Karaoke King Carlson. Give him a raise instantly. In fact, he should own the place. Hell, give him the key to this city of Irvine. My firstborn will be named in his honor. Amen

    A co-worker of mine recommended this place. Our group was worried that a neighboring karaoke lounge would fill up fast. Thankfully, we were able to secure a reservation days before a major holiday weekend. So, you would need to call the place first to secure a room - I highly recommend securing a room as this place will get busy in the later hours on the weekend. You would need to call and give them your credit card number; it's pretty old school, but the gal from the lounge was very patient and understanding. The actual place itself is a cool vibe. I love how every room is themed to different colors. We were in a green room that was right next to the bar. My friend ordered tequila from the bar and he liked it. My friends ordered water, but the bartender was only there every now and then. So we had to wait until the bartender was there to get a cup of water. Song selection is very Korean dominant. I do appreciate they had some Tagalog songs, Western (English) popular songs, J-pop, and anime / video games. However, if you are in the mood for showtunes, it's not on there. There were song English songs we wanted, but they were not listed on there either. J-pop songs were tricky to navigate and even then, some popular J-pop songs were not listed on there (ie: Plastic Love, Stay with Me, etc). The remote would have been hard to navigate if we didn't have our Korean friend with us. We were able to figure it out. However, we did notice that there were songs on the machine that were not listed in the book. Every room got one song selection book; we had to request another one since we had a group of six. I would have given this three stars because of the song selection, but I loved the service and the vibes of the lounge. Otherwise, if you're just looking for vibes and singing your heart out, this ain't a bad spot to try out. Yet, if you're feeling like Weird Al Yankovic, do what I did and find the original track and sing the Weird Al lyrics. No Amish Paradise listed here.

    Just to give yall an idea how big the VIP room is!

    Feeling like some Korean food, I remembered being curious about this place. We are often in this…read moreplaza because we're always shopping for groceries at the H Mart. We finally gave it a shot today. We ordered the steamed pork belly, cold noodles, and the galbi soup. The food was very good. My mom was quite happy with the cold noodles and my kids consumed every drop of the galbi soup. My dad and I had the steamed pork belly and we agreed that it was pretty good. The part I want to really emphasize was the service. The young man that took care of us was very attentive and most importantly, treated my kids so well. He provided them with all their usual needs like plastic silverware, extra bowls for soup, and even offered extra soup when he saw that they devoured the galbi soup. He went out of his way to give them some BTS Edition Oreos and little bags with stickers in them. I am always very grateful anytime people take care to treat my kids well. I'm glad we decided to give this spot a try.

If you're going with a few people, the Braised Spicy Premium Beef Ribs with the flat glass noodles is definitely the move. The portion easily feeds two to three. The meat is super tender and just falls off the bone, covered in a rich, spicy sauce that has a nice kick to it. The flat glass noodles soak up all that sauce, and the chunks of kabocha squash add a slight sweetness that balances out the spicy, heavy beef. Service is super fast. You get your banchan pretty much the second you sit down, and the food comes out steaming hot without a long delay. If you're looking for a quick group lunch spot where you can split something huge and spicy, it's definitely worth coming here.

I have always really liked this restaurant, which is why today's experience was especially disappointing. Unfortunately, what happened today was truly awful. From the beginning, our server appeared visibly impatient. When we repeated a couple of dish names to make sure the order was correct, she began speaking to us in an unnecessarily loud and irritated tone. Her voice was loud enough that another employee noticed the situation and offered to take over the order. Instead of accepting the help professionally, our server responded that the other employee would not be able to understand what she had written in Korean. When the other employee later asked her to repeat our order, she read it back very loudly and with obvious anger. The entire restaurant could hear her, and the experience made our whole family feel embarrassed and extremely uncomfortable, especially since we had children with us. Later, she seemed to realize that her behavior had affected us. She brought us a noodle dish "on the house" and briefly said sorry. While we appreciated the gesture, it did not undo the way we were treated in front of the entire restaurant. My question is: if you knew your behavior required an apology afterward, why treat customers that way in the first place? Customers should not be made to feel like an inconvenience simply because they are dining with a larger group or placing a larger order. We came to enjoy a family meal, not to be spoken to with hostility and publicly embarrassed. Unfortunately, this experience completely overshadowed the food.
