1/27/2024A 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... Read More 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.

Great place! Came here for a birthday and we were familiar with the karaoke system so it was easy to get started. We stayed for 2 hours and it was... Read More a good amount of time to not feel rushed and get all our songs in. The drink selection was great and it was fairly priced! Will definitely come back again.
11/25/2023Went here for a birthday for 2 hours and it was great! Pretty similar setup to other karaoke places around, but really fun! We used the game mode which gave... Read More us notes to hit like playing guitar hero. Service was great and the drink selection was good too. Will come back!
11/21/2023A hole in the wall from the outside but very nice on the inside! Enjoyed a girls karaoke night and booked the larger room for our group of 10. Only... Read More negative is that the remote is in Korean which made it trickier to input song choices but we eventually got the hang of it. Food options were decent for snacking but better to plan to have dinner else where. A very popular place on weekends so be sure to book in advance!

Voko is a hidden gem! Janet and Tom's passion for making every night special truly shines through. The ambiance is electric, the sound system is top-notch, and Janet's song choices... Read More are always on point. The lounge is where you can truly express yourself and let your inhibitions fly. Janet's welcoming personality adds an extra touch of warmth, making every visit unforgettable. It's a place where you can sing your heart out and create wonderful memories. Highly recommended!
11/03/2023Clean and fun environment! My friend and I had a blast there. We came a bit late so we didn't get to order any food. But overall it was a... Read More memorable experience... will definitely go back!
9/25/2023Been here a few times now and always have a great time! The staff is top notch - they're always super nice and very customer oriented. My friends and... Read More I love to sing, and they've earned our repeat business.

Last night I tried something different and went to VOKO Karaoke in Tustin since they have a bar rather than staying local in Long Beach. I'm glad I did, I... Read More was told about this super cool karaoke joint and know now where to take a group of friends to sing our Hearts Out!!! On top of everything we met Marcus the bartender and he was so on it! Personality on point, very attentive, and just welcoming not just to us but everyone that showed up. Service like that, where it's same across the board is hard to find and who ever brought Marcus on did right and because of that I'm definitely coming back to rent a room and get into some singing!!!
9/09/2023I came here for my birthday with like 15 people so we got a large room and it was so much fun!!! It did get really hot in our room... Read More so they brought us 2 fans which helped a little but just dress light if you're going with a big group because it will get HOT!! They had a ton of soju available at the front desk and they had a full bar. They had a pretty big list of songs to choose from but you could also connect your phone so that you can find karaoke songs on YouTube. The only thing is that when you're connected to your phone it does NOT show the lyrics on the screen so you have to read off of your phone. I would've preferred to see the lyrics on the screen but it's not the biggest deal. I highly recommend this place!!
9/04/2023My friends and I come to Voko karaoke often to celebrate our birthdays and it's always so much fun! They have a wide selection of music in both Korean and... Read More English which is always a bonus. Our group is large and they always take good care of us and the staff are so friendly! Definitely go here if you want to let loose with your friends and have a night to remember!!

OC's Hidden Gem
Luxury Karaoke Bar & Louge Tustin, CA
“I have been looking for a korean karaoke bar for awhile, and I have finally found a good one near Irvine! This place has spacious rooms at more than fair price, and I was very satisfied with the fast service here. I think this place is still pretty new so not a lot of people know about it, but I know this place will be really popping in the near future. If you are looking for a place for 2nd round near Irvine/Tustin, this is a place to go!!

“First time here. Got a small room regular rate is $30 per hour. I was there during happy hour (5p-7p daily) so it was 30% off”
