The only Native American based Casinos that I've taken out more money than I deposited.
Been here more than one hundred times though I stop less than once a year now.
The club used to offer a coupon or two per visit (enough to cover my fuel costs) but now limited to a couple a month.
There were other unique secondary incentives such as blackjack bonuses for the most BJ's in a time period along with hourly drawings (for showing up)and monthly (accumulation) drawings. Most of those were discontinued as the Casino expanded. Sure they cost them on the books, but without them I choose to drive somewhere closer to home.
The 99 cent special food was also a big hit when they were cooked to order. That changed when they expanded and began to use oven warmers after a remodel.
From nearly Ivar's quality to the mystery gas station level warmer was a disaster from my perspective. Fresh hot crispy fried fish to soggy luke warm mushy or dried fish jerky.
The Prime Rib in the main Restaurant is mostly a hit, other Casinos rib is lower grade but you pay $30 plus for the Buffet here. Bar food is hit and miss.
Regular staff was extremely nice, management was a bit stiff. Definite disconnect between floor staff and changes seemed as much as a surprise to floor as it was to customers.
Always liked the clubs monthly gifts even though mostly junk, but a few good hits. (great mugs for first time visitors) They had me as a regular customer (who brought in other customers) for a few years.
There seems to be a second dealing Black Jack plague at many of the Native American Casinos in Washington, so you have to be real friendly to not become their favorite mark. Have not played for a few years.
Have not tried since the Hotel opened.
