This is a very quick "snapshot" review, so please keep that in mind as you read on.
Boyfriend and I had tickets for the Indians game tonight, so after taking the Shaker rapid in, we headed for the casino to get dinner and a peek at the casino.
We thought we could get in by the casino door near Brooks Brothers (inside the Terminal Tower), but a guard said that was an exit only, and that we had to exit Terminal Tower and enter at the Public Square entrance. No problem, it is just around the corner...but I wondered about the inconvenience when it is snowing or raining hard?
The entrance off of Public Square surprised me...it was filthy! The cement looked gross, like no one had thought to give it a power wash, especially during an opening?!? I was not expecting a red carpet, but this looked more like a sad back entrance than a "welcome to our new casino" entrance, IMO.
We were greeted warmly Upon entering, and found our way to the 2nd floor for the 3 eateries. Kudos for keeping the choices local, BF chose the B-Spot and I went for the meatball sub at Rocco/Rosie's.
The area around the 3 eateries is small - I can see during peak times, tables will be in short supply. My 9$ meatball sub was ok, but not great...lukewarm temp, not as seasoned as I usually expect.
The noise volume was so High that I had to double check with the person taking my order at Rocco's that he had it right...he tried to make small talk with me about the casino but I could not easily hear what he was saying. I am NO where near needing a hearing aid, so that tells you something about the noise level.
We tried a couple of slot machines, won less than we played, but but not by much!
Overall, it may not be my cup of tea, but if it makes Cleveland more of a tourist destination/attraction, I hope it works.
