The casino has a pretty good point system. on Friday and Sunday if you gamble about an hour you will have enough points to buy dinner or lunch
We went there for dinner while staying at the Salish Lodge. When we walked in we couldn't find a place to get away from the smell of cigarettes. I don't like to taste cigarettes while I eat so we left without eating.
It’s hard to bypass a casino buffet, especially when you’re in Las Vegas, because you know it’s designed to attract you into the casino where you’ll spend a small fortune, even if the meal is cheap. But we’ve found that the buffet Snoqualmie is a temptation that doesn’t come close to an even payout. It’s fairly expensive and the food has more of a factory made flavor than would be expected. Yes, you can eat all you want, but after the first couple of dishes you realize you don’t want much more. It’s too bad. This is a beautiful casino and has such high promises.
I love entertainment and enjoy audience participation however, each time I have been to the Snoqualmie Casino there is the same unpleasantness and I will not be going back to this establishment. In order to get to the ballroom you have to go through the smoking section of the Casino, which means your clothes smell like smoke Yuk! There is no checking of purses of bags which translates into people bringing their own alcohol to the concert. This means a sloppy drunk crowd. I do partake of alcohol but limit myself. This past Sunday the crowed got out their thermos as soon as the lights went down, refused to listen to the request of the staff to stay away from the stage, all which is a distraction. I felt sorry for the staff as they had to deal with the crowd. I believe the Casino could do a lot to improve the experience.
This Casino is right off the a Interstate and easy to get to. Lots of parking and not much of a walk. Best, this casino is pretty new and under one spacious roof designed to look like a lodge. It could be Lake Tahoe. Sure, there is some cigarette smoke, but that's no different than others. Sure, you can loose money, but that's no different, either. It's a casino. But, it's newer than most, so you feel like you are someplace swank, not in an outmoded, added-on-to gymnasium. Has some good entertainment booked.
My husband and I have been going here for years! It used to be a nicer place. I loved the old sushi bar, and the free bottled water was nice. The spicy nuts at the bar were also yummy. It's still very nice. A bit too smoky! Food is okay. I wish they never changed it! I loved walking out on the old deck. It had an amazing mountain view. They got rid of that too. We don't go there much anymore...still a nice place!
This casino is close to the Metropolitan Seattle area and is easily reached via Interstate 90. As a non smoker, there is still a lot of smoke even in the non smoking area. The food was good but we no longer get any incentive to attend their buffet. The price for food is about the same as other casino's in the area. Since I am not really turned on by loosing money, it does not take me long to reach my loss limit and thus I watch my friends gamble. The cigar bar is fully stocked, but again, you are not getting on reservation prices for your smokes as they are all pricey. They do have a good stock of cigars and do have specials for tasting and smoking that are pretty nice, if you drink the expensive booze and smoke the expensive cigars.
Will you win a bajillion dollars? Probably not. But you can have fun donating to the tribe. You can smoke in there but there are non smoking areas. There's an enclosed nonsmoking card room. The ventilation is better than at other places. Food is good. The Asian restaurants strong point is sushi. I can not vouch for anything else. The view is very nice. Parking is good. If you are handicapped,everything is accessible. Bathrooms are nice. If you have a medical emergency, they are Johnny on the spot. Snoqualmie ambiance lacks the seedy element other casinos have. You know the one where people are desperately pushing buttons trying to escape their meager, limited income, or the kind of place where you wonder if your car stereo, or even car, will still be there when you leave. Snoqualmie isn't even close to that. It's a nice place, but as casinos go- they want to win too. Right? It's entertainment, keep that in mind.
Unlike Vegas, Indian casinos aren't required to have a minimum percentage that they are required to payout by law. However this place is rediculois, out of all casinos I've been to in state this by far is the worst I've ever seen! On a nicer note it's great to enjoy a drink with a cigarette in doors, outside the casino in the corner of the parking lot they have a small tobacco store selling cigarettes at reservation prices. A great place to stock up on cigarettes if you're a smoker. The food is pretty good too, and it's worth it to get the players card if you're interested in getting awesome discounts on food. Great looking building as well. Once again though if slots is what you're interested in, then go somewhere else, unless you enjoy loosing without even getting the courtesy of a few small wins in between to get you hooked.
i come here with family every time I am in Seattle. Fun night out. They have good acts so check their site plus a good sized gaming area with tables and plenty of slots. The cigar bar is well stocked and carries a lot of high end liquor. They offer a sampler of just about every type of libation. For eats there is a buffet, sandwich shop and a very nice but pricy restaurant. The players club card is a must for frequent visitations. Be sure to bring ID. IF YOU ARE YOUNGER LOOKING YOU WILL BE CARDED.
