Sing Sing
Sing Sing is the premier karaoke venue in Homestead's Waterfront complex. Set up as a dueling piano bar with raucous live performances, Sing Sing encourages crowd participation and laughter. Expect some adult comedy mixed in with classic tunes as well as pop and R&B hits. Patrons can make requests, and performers constantly crack jokes between songs. Grab a drink at the long mahogany bar or order food and drinks from your table. Sing Sing serves standard bar fare as well as cocktails, wines and beer. The prices can be a bit expensive, but the live entertainment helps to justify the cost. Those with weak stomachs may want to stay way; the humor can be somewhat raunchy at times, so come with an open mind.
