The MGM DETROIT has new Wolfgang Puck restaurants to replace the previous Wolfgang Puck restaurants--go figure. TAP is a new sports pub worth going to
to get away from the machines.
The VP is still bad--QUARTER JOB & DDB ARE 8/5 GAMES.
There are no "DOUBLE BONUS" VP in the place.
Seems like every month they add new slots, so there's no consistency to play
an oldtime favorite or a newfound favorite, cause it'll be gone soon.
I SAY THEY'RE USING MGM DETROIT AS A PROVING GROUND, BEFORE PUTTING THOSE SLOTS IN VEGAS (SAD).

BUFFETS:
BREAKFAST $16, LUNCH AT $17, DINNER AT $19 CERTAIN DAYS IS A BIG RIPOFF SINCE YOU HAVE TO USE a minimum $5 in POINTS JUST TO GET THOSE PRICES.
My suggestion, find local restaurants that charge $5 for breakfast or $10 for lunch. You're on your own for dinner. SEAFOOD NIGHT AT MGM IS---$39 EACH--
DO THEY THINK WE'RE BUYING SHARES IN MGM at those prices? MGM stock currently sells for @ $13 so actually, you'd be better off buying a share, cheaper than a meal. Get this latest PROMO they're running: giving away a $50 gift card at a local over-priced flower shop this month (JAN) for--get this--
2,000 points at $8/point---just risk 16 thousand dollars for VP players just to get $50 in flowers !!! Other promos are just as lame. Nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there, if you catch my drift.

In my mind, this is the only casino in Detroit worth visiting. The whole place is clean, the food is decent. Yes, the prices are higher than one might expect in Las Vegas or Atlantic City but hey, this is Detroit. They only have 3 casinos and there isn't much competition. I play poker and the poker rooms is wonderful. Extremely clean, very nicely decorated, quite, and enclosed and SMOKE FREE! And that my friends, is more important than just about anything else. So This MGM Grand gets a big "OK!" from me!

We stopped here on the way back from Caesars across the river in Canada. The casino seems to sprawl. The table games seemed to have high minimums for a Thursday afternoon. The tier points in MGM's M Life didn't rack up nearly as fast as they do in Las Vegas. And the food seemed very expensive for a casino. And getting from the casino to the freeway was a nightmare (which I understand isn't the casino's fault).

The slots payed well and I did win here (Hurray!). I tried to find a souvenir since I had never been here or even in Michigan before. They have a small little souvenir shop which they all but hide. The employees that I did come in contact all were very courteous and professional. But I think if I was even in the area, I would head back across the river.

Huge selection of slot machines: newer titles/themes and the pennies have invaded! Yet there's a good mix on the game floor. Large number of VP machines, too. A very Vegas Strip casino atmosphere. Ticket redemption machines do NOT have Multi-ticket acceptance!!! Table games seem steady - I have always felt welcomed by dealers. Self-serve beverage stations are rarely neat/clean. And MORE are needed as floor beverage service is slow, lacking, and poor. Players Club personnel are professional, but not very hospitable/warm. The tiny, non-smoking slot room is always too warm, and there are several areas of the gaming floor that are ALWAYS freezing. Long wait for Slot Attendant and hand-pays. Cage personnel are always friendly and professional. Better selection of restaurants in this property, but $$$$$. Food court is open almost all night - huge plus for overnight gamblers! Long lines are not uncommon at the Buffet. Smokey here throughout the game floor, but seems to have better air circulation than the other Detroit casinos. Hotel rooms are too expensive for Detroit - (this is NOT the Wynn or Bellagio!) It would be nice to be able to stay here sometime, but given the choice of spending hundreds on a room or at the slots, the slots always over-rule! Plus, I have NEVER received an affordable discounted rate offer or comped night, (nor do I ever expect to!) You don't need to be a hotel guest to use the Spa facilities or indoor pool and there's an affordable day-rate. Electric Scooters are available for use by the mobility-impaired, a very nice amenity, but more scooters need to be available. Have had mixed gambling results but most of my "big win" nights have been here!
