First
Impressions-
Give
you
the
scoop
so
you
won't
look
so
new-time-y
I
did
prior
research,
noting
that
I
was
free
during
the
week
and
wanted
to
try
a
new
spot.
When
I
read
that
karaoke
comes
on
Wednesday
nights,
I
decide
to
try
Star
Bar.
Firstly,
I
enjoyed
the
ease
of
parking.
In
a
high
congested
area,
I
feel
less
stressed
knowing
I
will
have
a
place
to
park.
The
parking
lot
is
on
an
decline
and
wraps
around
the
back.
There
is
an
entrance
near
the
back.
I
entered
through
there
but
truly,
you're
supposed
to
enter
at
the
front
on
Moreland
Ave.
I
didn't
know
at
the
time
because
there
is
no
signage
stating
otherwise.
Upon
entering,
it
gives
the
appeal
of
a
grungy
dive
bar,
which
is
cool
with
me
because
I
enjoy
the
old
hard
rock.
There's
a
bar
on
the
lower
level
where
I
believe
the
regulars
go,
because
the
bartender
was
fully
engaged
in
conversation
and
didn't
acknowledge
me.
I
didn't
care
because
I
was
more
focused
on
trying
to
see
where
the
karaoke
was
and
to
try
and
get
comfortable.
I
played
one
play
of
Pinball,
which
they
have
4
machines.
It's
actually
a
great
addition
because
it
cost
a
quarter
and
it's
loud.
There
is
seating
in
'the
cut'
near
the
pinball
machines.
They
had
a
projector
with
an
eccentric
movie
playing.
Also
on
the
bottom
level
there's
a
bathroom
for
all
genders
to
use,
I
enjoyed
that
they
have
even
THAT
so.
It
was
clean.
I
approached
the
bartender
and
let
her
know
it
was
my
first
here.
It
got
kind
of
awkward
because
apparently
I
wasn't
supposed
to
enter
through
the
back
door
..She
was
very
chill
and
told
me
if
I
wanted
karaoke
it's
upstairs
and
I
may
have
to
visit
the
security
guard
to
check
for
ID.
She
checked
anyway
but
I
guess
the
upstairs
staff
needed
to
know
too..
I
was
fine
with
that.
Going
upstairs,
they
had
another
bar
and
seating,
more
open.
No
games.
The
bartenders
were
very
attentive.
The
karaoke
was
slowly
steady.
It
wasn't
extremely
live
like
another
spot
I
went
to
during
the
weekday,
but
it
was
enough.
I
enjoyed
a
Deep
Eddys
vodka
Grapefruit
(don't
particularly
like
grapefruit,
wish
they
had
Lemon),
and
two
wells
vodka.
20
dollar
total.
Not
bad
for
the
area.
No
food
that
I
know
of.
I
ate
prior.
Overall,
I
would
come
back
with
some
friends
for
Karaoke
Wednesdays
or
to
play
some
pinball
with
a
few
drinks.
I
like
how
I
had
a
few
places
to
hide
since
it
was
during
the
week
and
not
crowded
at
all.
I'm
sure
it
could
get
crowded
on
days
where
they
is
live
music.
Thank
you
for
not
making
it
awkward.
