    Yo, this karaoke joint is straight-up awesome! It's got a cool vibe, with a cozy and romantic setting that's perfect for a night out with your bae or your crew. And speaking of drinks, they've got a killer selection of Japanese drinks that'll get you in the mood to sing your heart out. But the best part? You don't need to be a pro to have a good time here. The crowd is super chill and supportive, so even if you're not the best singer, you'll still have a blast. And if you're looking for a romantic night out, this place totally delivers - it's got that cozy and intimate vibe that's perfect for getting close with your boo. Overall, I gotta say this karaoke bar is a total winner. It's not some big corporate chain, but that's what makes it so awesome. It's a hidden gem that's just waiting for you to discover it. So grab some friends, grab a drink, and get ready to sing your heart out!

    Love coming to this place. Great drinks, excellent bartender skills, reasonably priced. Small intimate spot but fun enthusiastic crowd, even on a Monday night, can't wait to come back

    This is THE best live stage karaoke place in the city. The staff are incredible, the drinks aren't expensive, the song catalog is deep, and it manages to be both intimate AND busy. Great energy, and I've never had a bad night here. Not once. Get here early if you want to secure a seat, as it fills up fast. Also available for private parties, at amazing rates.

    The cocktails are good the bartenders both of them are very rude and arrogant. They will literally chuck you out for no reason. The tip mandate is 20% and they force you to pay tips, when i said I wanted to tip 15% she said please never come again to this bar. I'm never going back again. They charge you$4 for one karaoke song.

    This is the best everyday karaoke bar in San Francisco and I have been to them all. Karaoke is $2 cash per song! Pro tip: download "Healsonic" on your phone to save time looking through the book!

    Fun spot if you like karaoke. My only advice is to keep your drinks simple, it’s definitely not a cocktail bar.

    The Asian bartender with goatie is such a lame and rude guy. The place would have been a nice place to go with a date but the service is so unfriendly that it is a shame.

  • 1/5 Clay H. 7 months ago on Google
    My group of friends and I will not be returning to Festa due to how shockingly poor we were treated by the older male bartender last Saturday night. I was further disappointed to see several other reviews mentioning this individual’s inappropriate & aggressive behavior, as they clearly show that management does not care enough to address the problem.

  • 4/5 Maria M. 9 months ago on Google
    Service was friendly, ambience was great, but you have to pay $2 cash per song you sing. I didn't have cash so they let me just tip the money on my receipt to sing. I think it's a little odd to advertise as a public karaoke bar and then charge people to sing, which is why they're missing a star. But otherwise, hot sake in a cozy bar in the Japanese mall? Count me in!

    My sister and I come all the time and we love Festa. If you need regulars to cheer you up for karaoke and you like a good cocktail, then I definitely recommend it here. They have a large selection of songs too.

    It’s nice bar, friendly atmosphere. I’ll come back. Karaoke is very good.

  • 5/5 Catherine T. 1 year ago on Google
    Low-key, no pressure bar karaoke that’s open late and on weekdays. The wait between songs is never that long either! What more can you ask for??

  • 5/5 Coach K. 1 year ago on Google
    No trip to Japan Town is complete without the true Karaoke spectacle of Festa. I love this place & I don't always sing. It's truly part of the fabric of this beautiful community

  • 1/5 Casey W. 1 year ago on Google
    We reserved half the bar for our friend’s birthday and brought lots of people and money to this bar. This place had a weird lady hovering over our table the entire time. She stood above our table and stared for too long and it was very off-putting. A glass broke near our table and she demanded money from us - saying it was $80 for breaking glass — at a bar inside a strip mall? It was so strange. I’ve worked at so many bars and restaurants and any bar should be prepared for a glass to break and that shouldn’t be an expense on the patrons. She was the worst vibes. EW! Karen energy :///

  • 4/5 Darren R. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cute small bar and lounge with great energy. The location itself is a bar that seats about 8 with a few chairs and a booth lining the corner, with a small decorated stage for karaoke. Drink selection is great and pricing runs about right with every other bar in the area. Sound and energy for karaoke is great with a good song selection, but it does cost $2 per song which was a bit odd. Overall great spot though

    Love the fun and supportive atmosphere and staff. I've been coming for a few years now, and was excited to be back on the stage. They take precautions for covid with screening and having clear shields for when your on stage singing without a mask. Still had a great time as always! I recommend for people wanting to have a fun night belting out their fav songs, regardless of your skill level.

    upon entering, you swap your credit card info for a press club card then proceed downstairs. each time you make a purchase you just hand them your card, they swipe, and you drink. it is quite simple and overall makes the entire process a lot quicker. i forget how many different wineries from napa/sonoma were present (maybe 6-8?). but basically you can order a tasting, flight, or a glass of wine...and it sorta feels like you ARE in napa! i've been to napa once only and although completely gorgeous and a great experience...press club could make a great substitute for those without the time to head up to the wine country or for those who are weary about driving from winery to winery after a couple flights...meaning...light weights.. =)

    I was excited to hear of the Festa Wine opening but was slightly skeptical. My lovely SOMA/Fi Di neighborhood already has a number of successful places such as Local and District and a number of failures that have also come and gone in the area as well.

  • 1/5 Rajath H. 2 years ago on Google
    Fraudulent owner misleads customers, harasses and then changes reservations/ denies service last moment. We arrived at Festa for a karaoke night to celebrate my girlfriends birthday and we’re taken to surprise by misleading cover charge despite confirmation on the previous night. I would stay away from this place.

    This was absolutely the most fun kareoke bar ever. The bartenders were super friendly and fun, the drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. Check this place you! You'll hear it from the street!
