The Karaoke club on Taraval near the corner of 19th Avenue re-opened in mid-2010 under new ownership. With a name change, some re-modeling and new song selections, owner Wendy Tsang is aiming to make K-Net Karaoke “The Best Karaoke in San Francisco.”
Private rooms outfitted with large screens, clear sound systems and plush seating can accommodate couples, small or large groups. Unlike many other Karaoke systems, the songs’ actual music videos appear on screen (instead of random unrelated images), along with the lyrics.
No alcohol served, but K-Net does offer bar-type snacks like chicken wings and a variety of non-alocholic beverages, including unusual options like coconut water and lychee juice.
Tsang is also owner of two Quickly stores in the city, and the treasurer of People of Parkside Sunset (POPS).
