K Illusion

The staff were helpful and that's the only redeeming quality of this establishment. The microphones didn't work, the toilets were of poor quality, the karaoke setup itself was unintuitive and irritating to use, the booths were not soundproof, other booths were clearly audible. I would not recommend this place.

After going to the voice karaoke last year, we went to book again to find it had merged with k illusion, the machine worked well but we were shoved in a room that couldn't even sit our whole group, with poor ventilation. Up stairs bar was very limited and staff were unsure about simple drinks. The worst part for us were the toilets. Broken and very dirty

I'm not sure how this building hasn't been condemned? Drinks were a reasonable price. Staff were friendly enough. The selection of songs were ok. Searching songs & artists was a bit complicated.

The karaoke booths are fine, no complaint there. Our birthday event was spoiled somewhat when the prototypically power hungry bouncer refused entry to my sister in law for not having ID on her. Shes 32 and pregnant with her second child, in a group of all 30+ patrons.

The law specifies they only have to ID someone who appears under 25. Whole thing feels a lot more like discrimination against a pregnant woman than any sort of responsible service of alcohol problem. Its a shame when a good business lets someone like this be their first impression.

Pretty average sound systems for a karaoke place. Had to yell to be heard over the music when in one of the upstairs rooms. Bar and club downstairs were nicer and bar staff were friendly.

Such a vibe! Nice decor, the rooms were cozy, and the whole place felt really alive. The atmosphere of the venue and the rooms makes such a difference for karaoke- rush karaoke is a good example of the opposite scale. The female bar staff with the red hair was so sweet and was super helpful with helping us out if we needed it.

Only downsides were the drinks and the karaoke machines. The karaoke machines are super difficult to use- the search function isnt straightforward and you have to search for the intials of the artist or song instead of the full name. Error messages are in a foreign language, even with the machine settings set to English, but bar staff are super happy to help show how to navigate the system. As soon as you get the hang of the systems, you forget about its clunkiness and work with it. The person mixing the drinks was shocking though, and mixed some borderline undrinkable stuff. Mixed the wrong drink a couple of times for my friend, and when told, he would just add whatever mixer was 'missing' instead of remaking it, which would lead to the drinks tasting super funky. The drinks did improve towards the end of our session, so not sure if there was a bartender swap?

Pleasant staff. However there was a limited selection of English songs and you were not able to search a song that you wanted just the initial of the artist which come up with non English songs. We ordered vodka/raspberry and vodka/cranberry and the vodka smelt and tasted like onion, one of the staff members then informed us that it was cheap vodka and you needed to pay extra for the nice one. The toilets were disgusting and broken. Would not come here again.

Had an amazing first karaoke experience with a group of my friends!
Rented the 6-person room for a couple of hours, had a great time. Really nice drinks, cool decor, awesome vibe. Staff were friendly and laid back, made the atmosphere really welcoming and nice!
Karaoke machine program was a little dated and difficult to use, but staff were really helpful showing how to use it.

Excellent fun, fantastic service. Amazing for a good night with friends, with drinks, with singing, and perfectly located if you want to extend the night.

It was really nice and we had an amazing day with my friends. Heaps of songs to choose and the room were big enough to accommodate parties.

Overpriced, horrible service, so bad that clearly their own security didn't want to work there, as my friend was barred from entry without reason despite being incredibly civil and calm even when being cussed at. Had to argue with staff for over 20 minutes for a pitiful half-refund.

Not clean, smelly, VERY lousy karaoke devices, rude staff. The Worst karaoke place in Adelaide.

Not even real karaoke. You connect your phone just to use youtube. If I wanted to sing from youtube then I would’ve stayed home and saved my money.this place is useless.not to mention they let ransoms come in any time and interrupt. Horrible place.

I really love karaoke from spending a lot of time in Japan over the years and I have been attending K illusion for many years (even when it was called K box) and I think it must have changed hands during the covid shutdown because the staff have all changed (not for the better), the karaoke system has changed and is incredibly counter intuitive and everything has just kind of gone downhill. Kinda sad.

Really cool fact, the name K-illusion is a clever refference to this place having the 'illusion' of a decent time and even mildly respectful staff. Really clever marketing strategy. The meaning of K is unknown. Follow for more niche Adelaide lore.

Very rude bartender and arrogant. Tried to scam us on drinks which we didn’t fall for. The security guard number 27 was aggressive and very rude. A horrible experience seems like a scam for money. If there’s no dancing allowed, provide seating for everyone instead of allowing people in and once they dance, they are kicked out

Great range of songs! We booked a 3 hr session with drinks, although we went on a busy night and there was a bit of a mix up; the staff were so accomadating & even upgraded us! Will definitely going back. The only thing I would recommend is booking ahead if it's going to be a busy night (like a Saturday on halloween night not long after covid restrictions lifted). Thanks for the amazing night guys!

Just gross!
Place was smelly, sticky, dirty and equipment didn't work properly and most was in another language.

Sadly a pretty average experience. The karaoke machine is not intuitive and the predominant language for the machine is not English which made it hard to find songs. The staff tried their best to help but we paid $60 and ended up singing 7 songs for one hour.

Rude service! Took such a high deposit for an afternoon session. Made a mistake with wrong pricing quote. Would not refund money back and forced to use that ‘credit’ for extra time or for drinks.

Got called out early after session with 5 minutes left.not happy

Will not be coming back.
