Been coming here often for three months. I work in the gaming industry and spent 15yrs in food and bev so thats what I focus on. The buffet is a good value, they change up the menu monthly. Try the mango sorbet, yum. Hours are limited and there is usually a line. Ask for Jan she's been there 20 yrs always up and positive (that's not easy)by far the best server. Tablegames has some issues. They pool tips and avg about $40 a nite, so the dealer customer service is usually poor. If sams really wanted "the friendliest dealers in town" they would work for their own tips. Usually not enough tables open. $5. Doubledeck blkjk.just not enough of them. No non smoking tables. I only play video poker there now. Lots of video poker machines, seem pretty loose. Play on the 2nd floor, better ventilation, more space. Waterfall area is nice. Dont wander outside, this area is high crime and plagued with meth addicts. Definitely a locals casino.Best on the boulder strip, a good value.
