Simple parking, clean building but the Smoking kills it for me. Haven’t had any food or drinks here just some simple slot play. The staff is always very friendly and I have been lucky with some slot games here after I was given some free play chances. Would pass up this location though if you don’t like to inhale second hand smoke — there are other options that don’t induce asthma, allergy attacks.

Gosh there is so much to do in Buffalo and now I’ve been introduced to a casino! Always something new to do in this city. This casino, as many other reviewers have noted, is very small. I haven’t been to many casinos in my life so far, but the outside is deceiving, as it looks larger than it really is. Upon walking in, there was a gentleman at the door who checked our IDs, he was very nice. The second you walk in, you’re hit with cigarette and cigar smoke and it is nasty. There is a non-smoking section, which is the area I chose to spend my time in and the smoke smell is still so overwhelming. I had to change my clothes immediately after coming home and hours later, the smell still lingers in my hair. First, we went over to the bar to grab a beer and while the bar seemed busy, we only had to wait about 2 minutes to be noticed by the bartender. Two beers and a double jack and coke came to $ 17. Played slots for a bit and noticed that my boyfriend and I were the youngest people here by at least 30 years. Tons of old people doing their thing. People were keeping to themselves, there wasn’t a lot of commotion. I liked the vibe, but again, it was so small that I kept circling the slots to pick one I liked and I kept passing the same ones over and over. They have some tables and then a section for high betting slots. It’s a good way to spend an hour or two if you have the money, very dangerous though, as all casinos are. The money just goes so quickly and you always leave telling yourself that you should have just WALKEDAWAY. OY. When I went to cash out, there was no line and I walked right up to a woman. She was so sweet and upbeat. My overall experience was enjoyable!

3 stars because i left with more cash than I came with. Other than that, just your average casino, smoke filled and full of seniors pissing away their monthly allowance. All the employees that I interacted with were friendly and helpful.

For my weekly boys night(see other reviews for reference) my Thursday night crew opted to try this new(er) casino in downtown Buffalo and we weren’t disappointed. Parking was free, security upon entry were polite and courteous(imagine that in Buffalo?) and our bartenders were very quick and attentive. I like to have a scotch, a cigar and play some video blackjack in peace — and this place allowed it. Also, table games were packed, but my friend was able to go up a few dollars on roulette while I had some nice conversation with several members of our local professional football club, who were relaxing for the evening. In town, fun, cold drinks and a nice night. I reccomend.

Located in downtown Buffalo. I am not a fan of the place. We went around 4 a.m. on a Friday night. Place wasn’t packed but really smelled smokey. I prefer fallsview casino.

Tiny and not impressed, the whole place smelled like smoke and did I mention it was tiny.

I don’t typically go to casinos but I came today to keep my parents company. The place is mostly slot machines. Clean environment and decent food at the small American style food restaurant. I played a little bit of slots and lost my money quite quickly compared to any casinos I have been to at Niagara and overseas. I suspect they set their winnings to very low. Majority of the time when u finally enter into a bonus round after throwing 20 or 30 $ at the machine, you might come out with $ 1.85 in winnings from the round. Enough to put a sour taste in your mouth and call it a night. Especially when it happens to you and your parents alike about 10 times in the night. My suggestion, if you might be into sports, opt in to buy a ticket for a game next door for a similar price to what you will lose here, except you will have more fun and it will last you longer.

Buffalo’s newest casino. This casino is basically a smaller version of the casino in Niagara Falls. They do not offer complimentary alcoholic beverages in order to protect the restaurant and bar businesses in downtown Buffalo which I think is a very good program. There is a small gift shop where you can buy odds and ends… no pun intended. Since its brand new everything is clean and beautiful. It also seems to be providing a lot of jobs and opportunity for Buffalonians. I am not a big fan of casinos but I think this place offers one more facet of entertainment for the downtown area keeping harmony with the whole«Buffalo Rises» master plan. In closing, I was also lucky here and won at black jack so I like the place!

Located in downtown Buffalo the casino has been drawing crowds. That’s why I came actually — I had driven by twice in the early evening and saw many cars heading into the parking lot. So I thought I should check it out. We saw a few craps tables, a few roulette, and various card game tables, blackjack included but many others as well. And then slots. Many many slots. This is a small casino overall, which can have pros and cons. Pros include easy to get into and out of, a small more intimate environment. Cons include small, not many tables to choose from. The drink servers were visible and it was easy to get water, small bottles, but water was easy. I’m not sure if you pay for alcohol or not. But tips for water are assumed. Smoking is allowed. Including cigars. So from the minute you open your car door to the minute you take a shower later you smell smoke and will smell like it. It did seem many people were not bothered by this. And I grant you all casinos except one I have ever been to allow smoking. So it’s the norm. But it did result in us leaving sooner than we might have otherwise. Loosing also helped that departure along though. All in all I enjoy casinos on occasion. I’m not sure I need one in the middle of a city but judging by the crowds many people are quite happy to have this casino. I only hope no one is banking on winning, the odds favor the house always. There is a small place to get a sandwich, gelato, coffee, breakfast and more. Have to say, it looked good and clean but we did not try any food. I can see going back here to kill some time or entertain out of towners. Easy access, close, easy parking, all good. Smoking not as good, would be great to have a smoke free area. 3 stars — it’s a-ok. Worth a visit if you like to gamble. Parking was easy and free. * I thought I posted this already but does not look like it took.
