Rock Box

Small space but karaoke yes!!! Loved the Sake Sangria but the Lychee Martini was straight up vodka…

SO FUN! We went here for my friend’s birthday tonight and I was surprised to see hot tea on the menu —it was delightful! Thank you for having such an awesome sober option!

This is a hidden gem. Or at least not a place that would come up as a must do attraction for most. That said, it should not be missed! Whether you're a great signed or a terrible one, with private rooms, Rock Box gives you the freedom to belt out your best (or worst) rendition of a song without anyone around but your friends. The store was extremely accommodating, even helping with a special request for us ahead of time! Great experience, great drinks, highly recommend!!

I had a great time here with a group of friends! I was especially impressed with the wide range of songs in different languages. I'm visiting from out of town, and I wish I had a place like this back home!

Great way to spend an evening with friends! A few caveats: 1. You absolutely have to book ahead of time. They are always full, even a week or two in advance. 2. You have to know your group size when you book or risk overpaying for a much bigger room than you need. 3. You have to know exactly how long you want to stay when you book; there's no option to extend your session because there's always another session booked right when yours ends. So obviously you need a plan going in, but if you can make it work, Rock Box is super fun. They have a huge selection of songs and also have a YouTube integration so you can pull up anything your heart desires. They also offer in-room drink service (though it can be kind of disruptive to the party vibe since you have to turn the music way down to order).

Overall good experience but a lot of Hindi Bollywood songs stop in the middle and the loading of the lyrics is very slow. A physical ID is required to check in. Overall 10$/person/hour including tax.

Great atmosphere, had a blast with friends and really enjoyed my time there, only had beer, so can't write about the food, but the rest was great!

Fun place to spend the night! Good service. Small lounge but good size private rooms. And there is a corner spot to chill with friends without having the karaoke speakers in your ears. Decent prices 👌

One of the best experiences I've had in Seattle. Disclaimer: it is a bit pricey. Two hour karaoke. For two people and two alcoholic beverages was a whopping $80!!!!!!!!! We went on a Wednesday night around 10 pm. They had a wipe selection of songs. The rooms were clean. The sound was great. Overall a great and magnificent experiment. Only down side is prepare to spend a pretty penny.

I love coming here. The energy from people singing their hearts out. The drinks here are good too. My 2 favorites are the Bombay & Tonic and Mojito.

We loved Rock Box so much, we came back TWICE during our trip. We had two experiences: doing karaeoke out in the open by the bar and also in a private room. Both were amazing but having a priavte room was just superior. We sang loud, screamed, and laughed all throughout the night. We had sangrias, sake bombs, and so many more. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

This was my second visit to Rockbox, the first was years ago soon after they opened. At that time, we had reserved the large, party room, which was fun and full of friends, laughter and snacks. On this visit, we rented our own private room, where four of us sung our hearts out. The biggest issues with our visit: 1. Very expensive. 2. No sound-proofing, so each time we paused, we heard (as if we were in the same room) neighboring singers. 3. Constant interruptions from the staff telling us we had 15-minutes left, do we want to add more time, do we need food/drinks, etc. It's fun to sing with friends and fun to have so many music options, but they can use some updating.

This was a lot of fun! I made a reservation for a private room for our group of 5 to celebrate my husband's birthday. We came on a Sunday so it was happy hour pricing for each person per hour and for drinks! The reservation was easy to make. Julia was wonderful and answered all of my questions. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Song selection was great! We had a blast singing for a couple of hours. Drinks and snacks were delicious! Huge fan of the salsa, guac, and spicy cucumbers. For birthday celebrations, I appreciate they let us bring in our own cake! Just make sure to bring your own plates and forks. Would come back again to rent a room to sing with friends!

Really the best karaoke place around! I've been to rock box so many times and it is always a blast! Such an affordable way to have fun with a small to large group of friends! The facilities are always clean. Service is accommodating, professional, and friendly. Song selection is pretty big. I'm a big fan of their New Year's Eve specials too! I really appreciate their per person pricing. Since you generally need to make reservation several days in advance, it's always hard to know exactly how many friends in a group can make it, so the per person pricing is very fair. There is a credit card requirement when making a reservation, and it's free to cancel until 24 hours before the reservation. The only thing is the location- it's in a very busy spot across from Cal Anderson which gets a lot of foot traffic but can be dicey at times. It's close to the light rail though and other night life.

A neghbor recommended I take a group of friends here and it didn't disappoint. The locations is fun, next to Cal Anderson Park, yet secluded enough to be a private spot. It's a staple of the Seattle experience and well worth the price if you want to have fun in the area. The local players have soccer, basketball, softball and skating gatherings going on all the time so it's great for entertainment. Can't go wrong with this place if you're looking to entertain a crowd.

Excellent private room karaoke. Very fun night out. Drinks add up quickly (between $7-15ish per drink), but price of karaoke itself is reasonable: $7-9 per person per hour. Staff was very sweet and friendly even during a busy night. Would highly recommend and hope to return soon!

Had a great time! Got the booth next to the street, and loved the cozy atmosphere. Big song selection. Drinks were, ok, but we were there for the music and happy hour is the best time to go!

Delicious drinks and fantastic karaoke! I finally got the chance to come here after hearing so many people rave about this place. The rooms aren't too big but they can fit a good amount of people, and they're system for video playing, lights, sound, applause, etc is wonderful. Their drinks are also so yummy - I got the sake sangria which was so delicious. It had just the right amount of sake flavor and the sweet wine was fantastic. I definitely need to come back for more drinks and karaoke!

This place is perfectly located. The ambiance was great and you could truly enjoy the atmosphere. The only problem we had was that It sometimes gets a bit crowded when it comes to karaoke clubs because for 4 people or less the spaces are way too small. We each ordered an app plus water plus a drink each and the tiny tables are not big enough, on top of anybody trying to sing over someone else, they are right in your ear and you are not even able to stand or you will knock over all of you drinks and food. we had to keep rearranging the tiny cube tables for each person to stand up and sing. Also, always ask for a room away from the main lobby, because ours was right next to the check in desk and they let customers sing in the lobby and it was all we could hear at one point. No matter how loud we wanted our own mics or turn the music up, which I am sure they have set to a certain level. The lady was just singing in the lobby. kind of annoying if you are here to hear yourself and your friends, not a random stranger belting as loud as possible in the lobby. We will try to get more people for a bigger room and not keep stepping over each other but not all our friends are karaoke singers, so 4 max was enough. Hopefully after this review they will give us a larger room at least big enough for 6 people and we won't have to keep moving drinks and water and hold appetizers inn hands because there is no room. The server was nice and I did mention how there was no room in that space for the drinks and food and water plus we were ordering shots, he kept quiet. Didd not offer to move us. and I know they had the room available because it was pretty empty in every room we passed by on the way to the restroom. I will also add it was the middle of the week, im sure they were not to capacity and could have moved us. . well, we had a good time other than that, we were going out of town the next day but hopefully next time we make it work.

While my singing might not be A+, my experience at Rockbox was! A cute karaoke bar with private rooms and a really good happy hour deal! We came here with some friends during their happy hour and it was only $5 per person per hour! The room had disco lights and couches making it super comfy! They had a good song selection and also the ability to connect to youtube. We also ordered some snacks and drinks. The server brought it directly to our room and we were able to call them whenever we needed something! The drinks came super fast and we very affordable and yummy. I highly recommend the guacamame which was a guac made with edamames.

Rock my box off because this place is amazing if you want to scratch that singing itch. I love singing, so I've been to a lot of different Karoake places. I also sometimes go alone to destress so you know I'm an expert. Here's what I really enjoyed about Rockbox more than other private Karoake places: 1. If you can't find the song you want, you can look up YouTube videos, so basically the world is your oyster 2. They basically have a server that comes to you if you want to order drinks or snacks 3. The snacks were really yummy!! You can get chilled cream puffs or their twist on popcorn and chips 4. DISCO LIGHTS IN THE ROOM! On top of all that, happy hour is at a decent time AND a good price of $5/hr/person 5 cause rocking out with songs and snacks... IN A BOX!

My friend invited me to her birthday party, and I was thrilled to accept the invitation! The celebration took place at a Japanese-style karaoke club with a fantastic combination of food, drinks, and singing. What made it even better was that it was an all-Sunday happy hour. To ensure we got a spot, we made a reservation in advance, as this place tends to get quite busy on weekends. Fortunately, we found plenty of free parking nearby in downtown Seattle, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. The disadvantage is there are not a lot of food to choose however at least there are snacks to eat haha! Another one, I'm confused for the hallway after the women's bathroom, I'm lost a bit hehe. Still, we had an amazing time and truly relished her short celebration! Well, you should try if you love Karaoke!

We made reservation on NYE and it was a lot of fun! Large variety of songs -- we were able to find songs in Japanese and mandarin. However, the subtitles aren't in English so you need to know how to read the language. Server brought our drinks fast! I got the lychee martini and it's strong (for those needing some liquid courage). There's a parking lot one block south to the location for $4/hr.

Exactly what I was looking for. Great spot for solo karaoke and very competitive pricing at $7 an hour during happy hour. Song selection is mostly if not all English but the option to use YouTube makes that a non issue.

Literally peak karaoke vibes with super fun happy hour drinks!!! Location is very convenient and everyone that's helped me in my visits have been very kind ^^

It's a cute place, very modern and offers a lot of drinks and food so the menu is good. You have to look up songs on an iPad which technologically is cool. BUT when you have a big book, you see songs you may have forgotten about. I like the book better. The sound system is so so and the controls for effects and key changes, etc. are not so great. The part I disliked the most is our waitress kept interrupting. First she interrupted to bring us the bill in the middle of us singing. Then she came in again to remind us our time was ending soon and offered us to stay longer for extra money. You can see the timer on the television so we knew when our time was up. Then she interrupted again to ask if we were ready to pay the bill. This is while we're in the middle of a song and we still had 5 minutes left. By that time I was so irritated I just wanted to leave. The karaoke places in California basically leave us alone until our timer goes off and then we pay at the front counter. That is how it should be! P.S. They automatically include a tip in your bill.

My friend and I visited on a Monday early evening. They have awesome drinks that are cheaper than average but are super delicious. I ordered a blood orange mojito for about $10 that was amazing. The staff was awesome. Shawn, the bartender, was great to talk to, and the woman at the karaoke check-in booth was super friendly too. My friend and I didn't get a room but stayed to karaoke in the lobby for free (1 drink minimum). It was just us two for a while putting in song after song. I was afraid of bothering the staff too much but they were so nice about it!

We tried to make a reservation, and got a confusing email back asking for a lot of the same information we had just provided along with a link to make a credit card payment on the deposit. They didn't tell us how much the deposit should be (50% but of what total - who knows) and didn't confirmation that our date and time was available. When we followed up, they had either given the spot away to another group or it was never available to begin with and they just didn't bother telling us.

So I surprised my husband with a date here on 01/24/2025 since we really needed a happy boost and I forgot to post this sooner but here it is. We reserved a small room for just the two of us as it just opened at 4pm and stayed until 7:30. The music selection was great and we loved the controls for the lights and effects. Our favorite effect was what my husband called the "Japanese button" which was a small button that looked like the flag of Japan and when you press it it sets up nice scenery from Japan on screen with another image of the Japanese flag in the corner lol. It was a funny addition to our night. We also ordered food and drinks which came pretty quickly and I had to say they didn't disappoint. Hubby wasn't a fan of the spring rolls mostly because he's not a fan of mushrooms but I thought they were pretty good! The flavored drinks they have were pretty good too! He got a Cherry Pepsi while I got a Cherry Coke that had some really good bar cherries included. We also got a small assortment of Japanese chips which the server said is in rotation so you may get different ones every time you go! We got some good laughs and singing in before we left! We are definitely going to come back again!

I love the Rock Box!!! We went for the first time ever this weekend. At this time, the Rock Box is enforcing masks, distancing, and checking vaccine cards along with IDs at the door. They are taking precautions against COVID seriously, and we felt safe the whole time. We were able to unmask in our room with our group. The rooms are really comfortable, and the lighting is fun. We loved the song selection, and their tech is easy to use. We had a ball! You can scan their menu on your phone. I was impressed by their menu, and wish I had tried more than just these two items. We had their Yukari Pop (duck fat popcorn). So. Good. Simple and good. Smokestack Lightening-this was a nice mezcal and grapefruit cocktail. This was very balanced! It was hard to choose! Their menu is very unique. Hands down we would come back!

I was looking for a place to spend a friday night while my friends came to visit. We had to book in advance since they looked pretty busy, I recommend calling as soon as they open to make your reservation We had a great time and the drinks were yummy. Our system allowed us to call for help from staff whenever we wanted food or drinks to be ordered. The price was a lot cheaper compared to other places as well. Would recommend to others if they are in the area.

This place is awesome. I've been a few times with different groups of friends and have enjoyed every experience. You can make reservations to guarantee your spot and time allotment. During the week it's a lot easier to get in and extend your time, but Fridays and Saturdays I would recommend booking longer sessions since it's not as easy to extend. They have a full bar, a few house cocktails and very well priced snack items. We had chips with guacamole and salsa; both were really tasty. We also had the old fashions, hot sake, and their Sake sangria (good but sweet). It's only $5 per person per hour during happy hour, and $8 the rest of the time. They also have a really good song selection and the entire system is very easy to use. The rooms are small and intimate, but all of the furniture is brightly colored and gives a nice ambiance. Will definitely be back.

Great place for a night out with friends! I came here with a group of friends after reserving a room, and we were taken to our box pretty quick. The couches were comfortable and easy to squeeze together on, and the table was right in the middle so everyone could easily grab their drinks. Plus, the system was pretty easy to use, and we were logging songs in no time! Our server was extremely friendly and accommodating and checked in on us multiple times throughout our reservation. Drinks came pretty quick, and according to my friends, were extremely strong too! She was also understanding and helpful when one of us accidentally knocked over and broke a glass. The best part is how private the room feels. With the loud music and yet clear mics, it was easy to forget there were other boxes nearby. They also had a great selection and we found every song we wanted to sing. I had a fantastic time and will definitely be back!

This is one of the best karaoke places I've ever been to! The happy hours are super cheap at $5 per person per hour, but the regular price of $8 per hour is also not too bad. This is also the only karaoke place I've ever been to where they give you free water. Literally every other karaoke place profits off of my dehydration, and this was the first time doing karaoke where my throat wasn't completely dying. The place is pretty clean and the drinks are good. The service is also super nice, one of my friends accidentally broke a glass but they didn't charge us and just cleaned it up. It can get pretty busy at times so you should probably call ahead and make a reservation. The only downside to this place is that they don't have some recent songs but it's still worth coming.

This is hard for me to rate. I would give it a 5 on service and a 3 on hard product. That makes my rating a 4. Here's the thing: Rock box is an Asian-style karaoke bar. Actually, it is a bar which happens to offer Asian style-karaoke. For those of you who don't know, that refers to the style of doing karaoke with your friends/family in little separate rooms in in which you control the music yourself. They have dedicated servers who bring you drinks (and maybe snacks?) to your rented karaoke room. Rock Box also features some free karaoke in the lobby, which is my preference but not their focus as a business. As such, the lobby does not have many of the features one would be used to at a "regular" karaoke bar--active DJ calling your name, options for key change up or down and a "host" in charge of making sure you sound good and the room is having fun. That bar is down the street (sort of). What's not good: Sound quality is not good in both the lobby or the rooms, and they offer no adjustments for this. The wireless mic system has dead zones in which it does not work--seems to be Bluetooth, but that normally wouldn't do that so I'm not sure what it is. Whatever it is, it's bad. Also, no bass, and really nothing to make your voice sound good or professional. What is good: The bar and wait staff are excellent, the drinks are consistently delicious and I often find cool people there--obviously! One server, Lindsay, is a veteran of over 10 years with the business. Her amazing manager, Taub, is phenomenal. These people care deeply about the place and their customers. They'll make sure you have a great time. Rock box is easy to access while going out in Capitol Hill. It's always a good time and you should definitely check it out if nothing other than the novelty and the great drinks. Cheaper alternative? Purchase a bluetooth microphone on Amazon and have your friends over to sing karaoke tracks on Youtube? Or sing in the car?

A super fun spot for karaoke that's right in the heart of Cap Hill by Cal Anderson Park. We stopped in for a late night on Friday and were able to snag a no-show room at 11:30 ish -- seriously appreciated how accommodating the staff was! They have a fun room that's facing the street, where you can also turn on the sound on the sidewalk. It's a gimmicky but cute option. They had all of the classics and it was super easy to use their interface to look up and select music. I wouldn't say they're 100% up-to-date, but they have all the types of songs you'd want to sing at karaoke. The server was attentive and checked in from time to time without being overbearing. We got pitchers of beer and sake bombs, which were all great. The pricing is super reasonable for being in such a primo location -- I look forward to coming back!

Had my bachelorette party here during the cold, rainy memorial day weekend in 2022. I was super bummed about the weather as I don't even live in Seattle anymore, and was hopeful that by the end of may it would be nice enough to walk around cap hill. It was not so we booked a room at rock box to do something fun indoors. They gave us a room right at the front where we had a window looking out into the street. We also had the option to turn on the sound in our room to the outside...and that provided endless hours of fun for us lol. Our server was nice but took forever to come in and check on us for drinks. My friends ended up going to the bar to order shots because we didn't want to wait. One star off for that - i literally had a veil on my head. If i were that server i would have made our party a priority because we wanted to order ALOT of drinks. I hope my friends who paid for the drinks reflected that in their tips. The list of songs could have been better which is why i took 1 star off. When you are in the heart of cap hill and frequented by a younger crowd...you gotta have songs that are being played on the radio in the past 3-5 years. I'm not "young" anymore so i found plenty of songs that we all enjoyed, but there were a few newer songs i was hoping to sing and rockbox did not have them - nor did they have anything by newer artists that have emerged over the past 3-5 years. All in all, it was a great experience because of the people i was with. There are other, less aesthetically nice karaoke places in international district (i'm looking at you seattle's best karaoke!) that would have probably provided the same experience, if not better cause we could have brought in our own refreshments and food and not have to wait forever for the slow server at rock box. We had dinner in first hill and this was a very convenient location for our party otherwise i would have chosen another karaoke location. Wouldn't go out of my way for this place but if you are in cap hill already - it's worth going to if you are in the mood for karaoke.

Fun spot, best karaoke box place I've found stateside. Song selection isn't always that amazing, but that's kind of to be expected even at nice places - so long as you like a good handful of mainstream songs, you'll be fine. Food and drinks here are surprisingly good. Fun, unique flavors, not insanely expensive, pretty solid happy hour menu. All in all, prices for the room rental and everything are pretty good. Fun way to spend an evening out with friends. No complaints!!

A few friends and I ended up doing karaoke over at Rock Box. While a few people bowed out, we were able to adjust our reservation for a smaller room. I love the two tablets they give you for songs and ordering - service came fairly quickly. While their selection is a bit limited, I do like how you can do YouTube as well.

Good drink, fun times, great for adults. Small space but if you like karaoke this is a blast. Off street parking is tough.

We were of group of 6 friends and wanted to hangout in Capitol Hill. After a beer at Optimism Brewery, we walked to this Karaoke Bar. The prices of this establishment seemed decent for a karaoke Bar in a prime location in Capitol Hill Area. Once you enter, they will take you to a room which is apt for the party size. They had decent song collection. But not vast I would say, maybe an upgrade to the songs list to include some more collection maybe adding some international collection also would be good. The equipment to do Karaoke was decent, they have buttons on the operator to notify the server if we needed any drinks. We got a bunch of drinks. The Server was patient enough and was very helpful. We booked for 2 hours, but we wanted to extend this, initially the management wasn't sure if they could help us as they had another booking. But since they cancelled, they let us hang around for some more time. It is important to make sure you call in advance to reserve your spot as it can get full as it is a college area. The sound isolation between rooms was good. It wasn't noisy, the rooms are well separated from one another. Overall Experience was decent. I wouldn't say extraordinary, but it definitely was worth the money I spent.

The karaoke is great. Good time with a night on the town. The food definitely is lacking, but it's not the food why you go.

Fun Karaoke spot! We went during happy hour and got a room, had a blast. Super reasonable prices during happy hour. I had the mojito it was tasty! I wish they had more drink options and snack options. They forgot one of the snacks I ordered, but it was no big deal. I will definitely go again.

Came here with a group of friends on a Friday night and we had so much fun, it was as if we didn't want to leave - our original slot was supposed to end at 11:45PM but we ended up extending it until 1AM, which the staff was kind enough to do. The room - we were lucky enough to get a room with one side facing the street. It had a cool feature where the wall could be made transparent so people outside on the street could see and hear us singing. This was a nice touch and it was entertaining to see the reactions of people outside. The songs - The song selection is not that vast, but they have enough mainstream songs to get you through a good amount of time. I liked how you're able to search through different categories, throwbacks and hits. The drinks - great selection and great prices! Not many places in Seattle that sell drinks for less than $10. Overall, had a great time and will definitely be returning here.

We visited this place during the Christmas break for our annual friends meetup, we were group of 12 people and got the standard room for 4 hours. We had a great time here and would definitely recommend this place. They had YouTube access in their karaoke setup, so we could play all sorts of songs we liked and sing along. The food and drinks service was very prompt even on a busy evening. I just wish their audio quality was better and there was a lot of feedback on the mic, they continuously kept fixing it but it did happen a few times after.

super fun and easy , we had a great time and the waitress was great- checking in for drinks but overall just letting us vibe! would definitely come back for any celebration or fun time

Super fun private karoke rooms with great drink options and staff that are kind!

Very overprice drinks not very good service except for at the bar signed up for a karaoke song. They got it wrong. They skipped over me and told me I was gonna have to wait another hour because they got the song wrong. I put in the correct number and if you cannot or do not have separate ways by journey, you really can't consider yourself a karaoke bar. Thoroughly disappointing.

Came here for friend's bday (we got the 40-person room); seriously lackluster experience but there aren't many karaoke options in CapHill. For ref, I've been to multiple karaoke places worldwide, but this is my first round CapHill. - Limited song selection -- many songs not available. Only English songs for one (which is fine), but even that selection compared unfavorably to eg Level2 in SF. Granted, they do have some artists other places don't, eg Rise Against. We were also able to find a bunch of pop songs so were at no loss for songs /to play/, which does fit the standard for commercial karaoke. - Pricey -- $250/hr for 40-person room is higher than what I've paid at /any/ karaoke place (eg Seattle's Orient Express is effectively $6/hr /and/ includes food; places in Austin, SF, NYC also deliver higher value at similar hourly rates) - Technical limitations: healsonic app wouldn't connect, so need to add song via iPad, can queue up to only 20 songs at a time, low flexibility to skip/re-add songs. My typical karaoke routine is playing the song and skipping after the second chorus to be efficient -- we weren't able to do that here - Lackluster videos -- it's ugly lyrics, not even videos. - Acoustics -- kinda weird and highly dependent on how close you are to the stage + your mouth to the mic. Poor volume regulation -- volume can fluctuate/spike lots based on these factors -- my watch recorded 100+ decibels, and we weren't expecting to need ear protection for friend karaoke! Acoustics in my studio apartment is better. Acoustics on a low-occupancy Seattle bus is even better, from my experience doing acapella in buses. AMBIENCE - 8/10 -- Cool vibes, great restrooms, albeit crowded. Open bar karaoke is nice. Being next to Cal Anderson Park is fun -- lots of meetups like sports, live music, and dancing within a few blocks! SERVICE - 8/10 -- Great service, given lots of people to cater to. Accessibility to large water pitchers is a boon! QUALITY - 4/10 -- Pure-quality standpoint (disregarding logistics), worse than doing karaoke at home / in park with a large screen + bluetooth speakers. VALUE - 3/10 -- bottom 25% of karaoke experiences OVERALL - 4/10 -- "Okay" -- would not support /karaoke/ here unless we had /perfectly/ same people num as room capacity, or a good friend painstakingly crafts a bday activity out of it like this instance. Still it's a /sacrifice/ of your time and ears, so have a good "why" ready. I /love/ karaoke, and this is still a raise-your-eyebrows kinda quality. I had a good time as I do most anywhere w friends, but my standardized rating for Rock Box is sing at home instead with your friends! Calibrated these scores against my last karaoke review (Hi Tunes in Austin which had less songs but better value and idiosyncrasy).

Lost our reservation. Almost ruined our night. Vibes were off from the beginning. Would recommend moonwalk karaoke in the ID instead.

Save your money and time!!! I went here a week ago with my two friends and although the room was pretty nice, it was super small. We came here because my friends and I love Karaoke and thought we found our spot however there was many things this business needs to work on. First of all the mix wasn't working and asked to change for a new mix multiple times!! And yet I still had to leave the room since I called for assistance and it never came. There was also some friends that kept coming into our room and interrupted our time cuz they were "helping their home girl" the server at the bar but just kept asking for my sisters number and were making a mess and spilled all the drinks that one are way overcharged and two there was a mess in the room and they did not clean it. Lastly I got double charged for the night and have yet to receive my money back. I was really disappointed as this location had such amazing reviews only to be treated terrible, feel uncomfortable, and ended up getting charged twice and yet no refund. Save your money and time.

We came around 12:30 expecting to get a private karaoke room since we saw they didn't close until 2:00 am but they told us that they wouldn't be allowing private rooms anymore. I'm confused as to why they'd shut off the private rooms so early considering it was an hour and a half before closing?

The service here is consistently great. The rooms are always clean and the equipment is well-maintained! My favorite karaoke bar!

Great karaoke spot! The software is really intuitive to use and there are a lot of songs to choose from (even pretty new ones!). The service was fast and friendly, and the room was really comfortable and clean. Happy hour has some good specials, like the fruity and delicious sake sangria ($5). I would also recommend getting the duck fat popcorn. The food is pretty overpriced here and there isn't much selection, so I would probably count on snacking instead of eating a meal. Overall, it was a really fun experience coming to Rock Box, so I'd definitely come again!

What does one say about a place that is so integrated into your life... I've got lifelong friends I've made in this bar, have learned and loved and sang my heart out here. It's hard to even know where to begin. Let's start with my favorite part of any bar--booze. The drinks here are not only unique and creative, but they are MUCH cheaper than any other spot on the hill. Even if I have a friend who is adverse to karaoke, I'll bring them for HH or early evening to start the night out with great drinks at a good price. The bartenders are attractive, friendly, and really know their stuff. Any bar who can retain staff from their opening five years later is probably running a tight ship. The karaoke is top of the line, too. Whether you are in the bar or in a private room, the sound and selection are amazing. Inside the room you can buzz your server or control every aspect of the karaoke yourself multiple ways. No more waiting for a single iPad! It's so fun. Service is great, the food from Cure next door is delicious and great quality. The cherry a top this sundae is Taup, the general manager. She is friendly, funny, calm under pressure and has cobbled this amazing experience together. She handles issues swiftly and in a way that you feel everything was fair. Finally, this is a popular bar. It gets busy, and just like every other karaoke joint in town, there is going to be a wait to sing in the bar on Friday or Saturday night. Plan ahead! Come early, or book your own box so you can sing as many as you want back to back. Sing smarter, not harder. If you didn't already know, this is my home away from home.

Rock Box is one of my favorite places in Seattle! I made a reservation here this week and the booking process was very straightforward and easy. The private rooms have a great look and the system to queue up songs is also super user friendly. The service is great too! All the drinks we ordered came out so fast even though it was a busy Thursday night. We all had a great time at Rock Box and I can't wait to come back again!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!!! I had my birthday here two years in a row. Songs are easy to find. Huge selection! Even musicals--for at one person reading this. Food is good and drinks are stiff. Staff is BOMB. They will make you wanna stay the rest of the night. And most importantly, the prices are fair. Some room rentals are ridiculous. This place is always worth it. I have nothing but good memories here. Big fan!
