I've been a member since 2011, and we decided to stop by while in the area after grabbing dinner at Hugoi. Plus, with it being Lunar New Year, we thought we’d try our luck! The line leading down to the stairs and escalators reminded me of a Global Pre-Check TSA line. They check ID as usual and are now enforcing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate. I definitely noticed some regulars based on how the security guards interacted with them. The casino is currently under construction for new game rooms. I always have a great time at the Roulette tables and the Lotus Lounge, especially when there's a live DJ on Saturday nights. Over the years, the minimum bet at the Roulette tables has been as low as $15, but during this visit it was $25. Overall, a fantastic experience at the Roulette tables and Lotus Lounge with a live DJ on a Saturday night!

We were pleasantly surprised to be offered complimentary sodas without the usual attitude we often encounter at other casinos. While I would love a free soda station, the waitstaff were easy to find. I also received a military discount card, giving us 25% off our meals, which was a nice touch. New customers get $10 to play with along with a stylish card holder to attach to your pants. It’s refreshing to see a space where people from all backgrounds can mingle comfortably. This place is perfect for adults looking to have a good time without any worries. The gaming tables have a lively energy, making for an enjoyable experience overall!

I want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but unfortunately, I’m not a fan of his demeanor. However, the rest of the crew deserves a solid five stars! Thank you all; I truly appreciate your service. I’ll definitely be back, but I hope the boss will be nice next time, or I might reconsider my visit. Xoxo.

I highly recommend ordering the 4-piece shumai, as it's bound to leave you wanting more. I gave it 4 stars because, while the service was generally excellent, we felt a bit rushed.

And expensive.For the price of dinner, shouldn't just barely look at full container. Taste is okay for what we ordered. Beef were tender. Not bad.
