5 Best Karaoke Bars in Los Angeles (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Vespera Quill, Expert in Local Experiences and Cultural Analysis · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

Karaoke in Los Angeles mostly means booking a private room, not grabbing an open mic, and Koreatown is the heart of that scene. These karaoke bars have logged just over 2,000 Google reviews between them, with ratings spread from 4.3 to 4.9, so picking the right one comes down to room size, song catalog, and whether food is part of the deal.

Short answer: Mic Drop Karaoke in West Hollywood holds the top rating at 4.9 stars across 315 reviews, known for its private studios and battle-mode feature. Break Room 86 is the most-reviewed at 615 ratings, an 80s-themed Koreatown spot. Expect roughly $20 to $40 per person per hour for a private room, with some venues requiring a minimum spend.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the venue’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Los Angeles karaoke bars. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.6 from hundreds of people carries more weight than a 4.9 from a smaller base. Recency reflects how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these karaoke bars?

We started from karaoke bars in Los Angeles with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Do any of these venues have open-mic or public karaoke, not just private rooms?

Yes. dots space KARAOKE runs a separate public karaoke area with a lower entry cost alongside its private rooms, and The Venue has karaoke available in its main dining area in addition to private rooms.

Which karaoke bar is best for a large group?

The Venue’s rooms hold up to 50 guests, and Rosen Karaoke is also set up for bigger parties with combined food and karaoke packages.

The bottom line

Mic Drop Karaoke is the safe default on rating and room design, while Rosen Karaoke and The Venue are the better calls for larger groups. Whichever you pick, book the room ahead for weekend nights, since the good ones fill up fast.
