ROX — Restaurant in Graz

This place does NOT meet expectations.

From Graz with love! Dr. Dr....

Instead, certain other people who enter their name in the list 5 times back to back will be picked three or four times before you even get a chance. It's a shame, because a year ago this was the go-to place in Graz when it came to Karaoke. But the people who are in charge now seem to be more interested in letting a handful of people butcher several songs per night instead of giving anyone else a...
