Good karaoke spot with private rooms and a bar with open karaoke space -
Review 2 (2018-10-29 - Rating: 4)
It is important to note the word cave in the name, as this place really does feel like a cave, located in the basement of a pretty nice French restaurant. You get a free song with every drink purchase or songs without a drink cost $2. There are several private karaoke rooms for groups that cost $8 per hour per person (or $4 during happy hour). The selection of songs is extensive and the sound is excellent. -

I hosted my 25th birthday at Karaoke Cave and the service was out of this world!! The staff was extremely polite and patient as we were getting our swerve on. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! You wont be disappointed. Thank you Karaoke Cave for the best birthday party EVER! -

This 1 stage karaoke bar, serves liquid courage that comes with a free karaoke entry. Tickets are provided for each drink allowing you to enter as many times as you would like. The location is relatively unknown and slightly hidden Below a French restaurant. However the songs were good and the selection was huge -

Theres great energy every time ive been to Karaoke Cave, the open area makes it conducive to meeting new people and generally rocking along when your favorite tunes come on. The bartenders are attentive and generally get in on the fun as well, which is always a plus.Drinks are the standard youd expect in a basement bar. Nothing fancy but all the essentials are available. The jello shots are delicious if havent tried them.My only gripe is that the song lists can get....lengthy. Like 2-3 hours on Friday nights.It sucks when youve got a bug for a song and end up not being able to sing because theres like 60 songs in the queue. If youre looking for a quick place to jump in and sing this wouldnt be the place. If youre looking to meet people, have fun and enjoy some good energy then drop on in. -

Karaoke cave was the BEST. We booked a private room for my bestie’s big 21st in the big city. The staff was super helpful and accommodating (shoutout to Rashil!). When in doubt always go for 2 hours instead of 1. -

If you love singing, weeknights at The Cave are great. Friendly bartenders, good happy hour, fun people, and tasty food too. The song list is good and the Wi-fi is free! -
Review 8 (2018-03-27 - Rating: 4)
The staff, prices and menu are all very nice. And the song catalogue is surprisingly up to date and extensive. The only real downside is honestly the rooms are not the best condition and are small. -

Love this place! Super chill vibe, great drinks but even better bartenders!! Gets a lil warm but they are sure to keep fans blowing. Always a good time at the cave! -
Review 10 (2015-11-19 - Rating: 5)
I love that there was no stage and spotlight but rather a casual roam with the mic feel and flat screens on every wall with the words for ALL to sing. Every Kareoke bar should have this format. Love this place! -

Great place for karaoke! Screens all around the room so you can roam while you sing. Nice vibe and good drinks here. -

Came to new york on vacation and decided to try this place, how glad I am, staff were fantastic, regulars were really friendly, drinks are a little expensive but hey this is new york, get every type of singer from great to dreadful but they all get applauded because remember this is karaoke not American idol, had a great time in karaoke cave, came to newyork for the sights but Ill come back for this bar, one of the best nights out Ive had in years, thanks to all the staff. -

Unpretentious and can be fun. Private rooms too, if youre too shy to sing in public -

Review 25 (2016-08-23 - Rating: 4)
Cool Karaoke spot, drinks could be better but cool vibe. -
Review 26 (2018-05-17 - Rating: 4)
Had a great time here and you dont have to sing at all if you dont want to. Buy a drink and get a ticket for a song. Dont want it? Pass it to someone who will take advantage and sing along with the crowd! Super mellow but not great for pictures due to lighting and its also super diverse! Loved it. -
Review 27 (2017-02-21 - Rating: 4)
My group and I went to Karaoke Cave on a Saturday evening; I have been to other Karaoke places and this one is bar far the best. The staff is fun and easy going. The female bartender actually sings duets with you if needed. My girl can sang!!! My friends and I wondered if it was a requirement of getting a job at this place. They have private rooms for small groups, but my group filled up the larger area. Like most Karaoke establishments you have to purchase a drink in order to get your ticket to sing. As far as I know Karaoke Cave has English & some Spanish songs. Bathrooms were clean. I had a great time here and I will be back. -
Review 28 (2016-10-05 - Rating: 4)
We had a lot of fun singing or hearts away early in the evening one Sunday. One song comes with each drink you buy or you can get a private room for 5 bucks a person. Fun staff, easy going environment. -
Review 29 (2018-11-10 - Rating: 5)
If you like karaoke, you’ll love it here. There’s always a fun mix of people, both talented and more like myself as somewhat vocally challengers but everyone cheers each other on. The drinks are made well and I highly recommend the truffle fries. Getting back to the song options, they have everything from rock to hip hop to pop to oldies to country to indie to current. -
Review 30 (2018-05-27 - Rating: 4)
Dope place we had our own from which was $25 per person for 2 hours which isnt bad. The drinks were great and strong bang for your buck! Only negative was a bit hot in the space but other than that it was good -
Review 31 (2018-11-29 - Rating: 5)
The bartenders here are the best bartenders you will ever meet. Great prices and a really fun crowd usually. Sing and have the time of your life here its that easy. -
Review 32 (2018-12-27 - Rating: 5)
Awesome spot for a party. Come on any random day and its guaranteed fun. Its a buy a drink get a song at the bar or you can rent a room for Karaoke. The drinks are moderately priced and theres a food menu if youre hungry. -
Review 33 (2019-12-10 - Rating: 5)
Had a great time at Karaoke cave. The service was impeccable especially with the crowd size we had in our private room, will definitely be returning! Rashil is the MAN! Best server I have ever had. -
Review 34 (2018-11-15 - Rating: 5)
Lindsey and Ping who are two of the bartenders are great. Rashid the bar back is the nicest guy on the planet. If you want super polished and trendy dont come. This is a dive, like the name Cave suggests. Lots of fun and there is a good regular crew. -

Best place to sing in Nyc also has food! -
Review 36 (2020-02-27 - Rating: 5)
Rashid and Buku are awesome! But all the staff here are really nice and attentive. It’s a great little find close to union square with karaoke and food. I think it’s an excellent after work or weekend hangout spot to bring friends, a date, or just to sing solo. -

I am a big karaoke fan and have been to most of the karaoke spots that NYC has to offer. At the end of they day, I always end up back at Karaoke Cave because of the great staff, friendly regulars, drink specials, and casual space. Im so happy to see thats its been improved recently. -
Review 38 (2019-09-05 - Rating: 5)
I absolutely love this place. it is *the* go to karaoke spot in the area if youre looking for something lowkey and energizing at the same time.if youre new to karaoke and/or shy but have been wanting to try it out i definitely recommend coming here. the bartenders are really nice, and everyone is very supportive and theres just good vibes all around. its a different atmosphere each night and i find the best nights to go are when its slow but still has a decent amount of people to hype you up.drinks are great, they offer you a free song to sing with each drink. on slow nights you can get one drink and sing as many times as you want!definitely download the healsonic app, its easier than skimming the book if you happen to know what songs you want to sing. you can also change the language in the app too.i recommend sitting by the bar if its slow and if youre there with a friend or two, I havent been to the rooms yet and personally prefer the open space if you like mingling with the crowd.its a great spot to sing your heart out and its a wonderful no judgement zone if youre not confident of your voice.*dont* go on a Friday or Saturday night at the bar, itll take *hours* for your songs to come up. if you DO want to come on these days, get the private room! -

Went after work for a birthday party. Decent, cheap food and drinks. The birthday girl said the drinks werent strong enough, but what do you expect for $4 drinks. -

Review 42 (2019-08-14 - Rating: 4)
I was nervous coming here after reading some reviews but it seems management cleaned house of staff that was being unfair. Our groups songs came up right as they should. One song per drink which is a much better deal than any place in Koreatown. -

Its exactly what you think it should be: karaoke and a cave. Lots of screens and a pretty open space make this place great for small groups, especially if you dont mind mixing and mingling with others. -

All I can say is, Thank god they have a new owner and workers! 2 years back with old management sucked. They remodeled the bar area, new specialized bar drinks, $5 special shots, the new bar staff (Dusan, Matt & Jesse) is great along with the guy that mans the front door. I will be bringing my karaoke addict friends again. -

Underground location. There is no charge to enter, but it was almost empty on a Saturday night, with only a few students.The main room is for public karaoke, and in the back there are private karaoke rooms for parties or groups of friends.In the main room, with each drink they give you a ticket to request a song. Good repertoire and many screens to follow the songs. I would give it 3* for the lack of atmosphere, but I give it 4* because it is a nice place and all the staff were very friendly. -
