Binion's Horseshoe Review

I'm sure Benny Binion is rolling over in his grave with what this place has become. This used to be the place to play Downtown but not anymore. As of 2/2014 the hotel has been closed for years now. Most of the table games have been replaced with slot machines. Dealers are either new and inexperienced or been there for years and acted pissed at everyone. Table game comps are decent but there's nothing really there to use them on.

Old style casino, not much Las Vegas glitz, but gets the job done. We only lost $40 here! A Las Vegas win in my world!

The Best place to go and to stay is the Binions in Las Vegas

Old and un-attractive dealers and wait staff. Barely get served drink when on the tables. Have never win any money here

I love this place. If you have not tried Binions steakhouse, runnnnnnn. This steakhouse is amazing. waiters are nice and knowledable. I ordered the ribeye, it was huge. I also ordered the fried lobster Delishhhhh. The waitresses don't come around with drinks often when you are playing the slots, however it is a waitress there who wears her hair like Dolly Parton she is by far the fastest, friendly, frequent waitress that binions have. She is amazing. I love the binions. Everytime I fly to vegas I make Binions my first stop.

Fascinating story here Fat Irish Green was Bugsy Siegel's bodyguard who turned a briefcase over to Meyer Lansky after Bugsy was murdered in 1947. The brief case held $ 300,000. For being honest Lansky told Fat Irish he never had to work again for the rest of his life getting Penthouse # 1, free room & board at the El Cortez Hotel and Casino. Fast forward 15 yrs later, the new owners told Fat Irish to pay his bill that's been sitting on the books for 15 yrs. Fat Irish says "I owe you a nuthin." Now Benny Binion owed the new owner a favor and said I'll feed him but you keep him so he continued to live free at the El Cortez and eat 2 big meals a day for free at Binion's until he died in the late 60's. So sometimes it does pay to be honest.

It is low key and the service is great. The diner has good food at decent prices.

Great place to lay your eyes on some vintage Vegas. Old casino without updates like most of the others.

Typical Vegas casino. Cheaper and lots more fun than the strip.

We were walking down Fremont Street and stopped to pull the free slot machine in front of Binions. The gentleman at the front was very nice and told us to go and check out the $1 million and take a photo. Thats when we unfortunately ran in to Leo who was working at the $1 million photo opp. I was with a group of 5 who are all 35+ years old and Leo insisted very rudely that he see our ID. He went on to say that we are not allowed into the Casino without an ID and was extremely rude about the whole situation. This kid Leo should not be working with the public. I have never been carded at a Casino.

Right in the heart of Freemont street in old vegas. Central location, lots of slot machines and friendly waitresses who seem to perk up even more when you tip after a drink is delivered. The best part about this location is you can get your photo taken with a million real dollars! Absolutly worth the visit for the FREE picture. Be aware it takes about 30mins to print.

I really like this casino. It's old school and so much fun. Don't miss the diner. Great food.

Always the best place in Vegas to WIN!
I've been coming to Binion's since Ted was alive, and it's still just the same. I mean exactly the same. That's nearly impossible in Vegas, but I hope they never change a thing (except the carpet occasionally). It's like stepping into a time machine. The worst thing that could ever happen to this place would be if someone did anything to modernize it. Visitors to this casino should be able to see what Vegas looked like 30 or 40 years ago. It's priceless. A real treasure.
And you can WIN if you know what you're doing.

What a great deli they have. Parking is free for seniors by the way.

Don't be fooled by the pictures of the food and posted prices outside! You need to get a player's card to "qualify" for their greasy driner specials. The casino was overcrowded with slots and is in a major need of renovations.

Smokin Bionion bbq , so delicious only thing is they dont open til 4 and close at11 good service

This is the only casino where I win on Power Keno. Love this place. Even the earthquake a few days ago didn't make me leave my machine.

Video poker was good to us and the servers were prompt when we ask for a drink. But the real reason we like Binion's is the atmosphere, it's more Vegas.

Some of the black jack dealers were aweful. One skipped me once when dealing the second card. Another counted wrong and called my hand a push when I actually had winning hand! There were other mistakes but the pit bosses handled things well.

I've traveled far and wide to get a taste of the original binion burger

Dinner on the 24th Floor was delicious, with a beautiful view of Las Vegas

Had fun, we stayed across the street but we had fun here also

Slots didnt pay very good but I was in vegas didnt think they would

Haven t stayed there so don t know abt that! However the million dollar pic is so much fun especially when it s free

Old and dank feeling. One of the only poker rooms downtown. Place has seen better days.

The steak house on floor 24 was great. Good food good views. Would go again

Great drink specials and take your photo with one million dollars on a poker table. They will give you a print for your whole group for free! Great slot options as well.

A good, classic destination. Friendly dealers and staff. The Golden Nugget surpasses them in the hotel experience end of the spectrum.
