WARNING AVOID :: Security will harass you even while just using the massage chairs outside. I used to visit this place pretty often. It was always a little rough but to be harassed by the security guard for just using the massage chairs outside was unnecessary. 1) the chairs aren't part of Max karaoke. 2) A kid was just sitting on the arm rest, why the aggression? The guard is likely racist. I won’t be coming to this place again. XLanes on the 3rd floor was more welcoming. They even have nicer karaoke rooms! Les falta ser mas respetosos con los clientes!
It is fun place a bit old though, it has lots of room that you can book and sound quality is not bad
Max Karaoke Studio has been my go to karaoke lounge because of their affordable prices and convenience. Parking in LA is always difficult, but if you sing your heart out here, they will validate your ticket for 3 hours! I admit they aren’t the most high end Karaoke lounge out there, and the rooms are very basic. But with prices under $10 a person (tax not included) with no drink minimum, I think it’s a great location for those looking to have a fun night out with a couple, or a lot of friends. They have the regular rooms that are more affordable but also a bit more grungy, with beat up cushions. Or the VIP Rooms, which come with a strobe light and nicer furniture. They don’t have the option to link your phone to the internet and stream YouTube videos, but you can download the healsonic app to connect to their system and get an idea of what songs they have available. You can even set up your playlist ahead of time so that you can get right to singing! Nice to see that they survived the rona!
Impossible to not have a good time here! They’ve changed some of the rules up. Now they carry beer and wine, so there is no more BYOB. If you bring food, there’s a fee per person. If you bring alcohol and they catch you, it’s $20/can they find. Must be 21+, IDs are required. There are some interesting signs and rules posted around the club that make you wonder about what happened here in the past 😅 I went with a party of 8. We booked a mid-size private room for 3 hours with 2 mics. They charge per person. The more people, the less per person. We got 3 pitchers of beers and a couple bottles of Prosecco. It was around a $550 tab when we paid at the end of the night. Download the Healsonic app for free to easily line up and manage songs on screen.
Don't waste your time with this karaoke spot. Their policies are super strict - they charge a $20 corkage fee for outside drinks that have to be under 20% ABV. And get this, they charged our group of 7 an 18% service fee, even though their website clearly states when it's groups bigger than 8 🤯. Service was awful, staff was rude, and the place didn't exactly smell great. There are way better karaoke options in LA, trust me. Skip this one
