Casino Pauma Review

At first visit they will let you play. Win some and even give you free pizza or buffet
Then if you give them 20$ in exchange for 30$ free play money on the machine which you cannot even get a cent and the machine take them over and do not let you play with your money

It's not a great casino It's still a tent very smoky and the people that go there and play are very moody probably won't go there again

VERY BAD AGAIN I PLAY POKER AND WHAT MEANS MORE TO ME IS HOW IM RESPECTED AND THE DEALERS ALL HAD THERE LITTLE FRIENDS AND MADE SPECIAL RULES JUST FOR THEM AND JUST TREATED NEW COMERS VERY BAD

Lots of fun slot machines and courteous staff. Wish they weren t so far off the beaten path, but will go back

Good food and environment. I worked here back in 2014 before I moved to Texas a d I gotta say I miss this casino and it was great to stuff my face at their buffet and gamble away at some winnings.

Fun little casino. Being small is what I like about it.

I love coming to Casino Pauma because this casino is consistent. If I need anything during my visit, I know I can always count on their staff to come through. During peak hours their slot attendants and security are always making their rounds greeting guests and will remain within reach. I highly recommend dining at the Cafe located next to their buffet they're breakfast is the best! Casino Pauma's gaming floor is cozy yet comfortable they offer a wide selection of machines with multi-denominations and table games. Checkout their Facebook page for freebies and promotions. There are plenty of restrooms conveniently located throughout the building (no lines at women's)lots of ticket redemption/ATM machines so you don't have to go too far. The cashier's cage is always super fast and friendly. If you want a more laid back environment with a welcoming atmosphere then Casino Pauma is perfect for a low key good time. You can come as you are have fun and just be yourself.

It's is always a blast here I like this casino best I get better winnings. Will keep coming here :)

Love this casino. Friendly staff and so many great slots.

It is a beautiful place where time is enjoyed very well playing and listening to live music.

Fairly good buffet food. Lunch is a better deal. Gambling is like all Indian Casinos, they charge the odds daily and very few win enough to take home. If they had to disclose the odds it would be fairer.

I went here to see Billy Gilman in concert.
Lost a quick $30 on the slots waiting for the show to start. Not one single payout :(
Sound quality of the show wasn't great either. Billy Gilman was AWESOME, but the venue wasn't.

We had a lot of fun there, slots, table games, restaurant and cafe. People are really nice and they have promotions all the time. Chance of winning is no better then any other casino but it is a nice place to play.

He is very retired not because he has good
Machines

Nice atmosphere at this casino however their cafe closes about 11:00 PM. There is only a small stand that only sell sandwich's, hot dogs nachos chicken wings and cookies.

1st time back to the casino it was on a Monday afternoon, this place made me feel safe staf wiping down ATM machines hand sanitizer and wipes located all over the casino Thank you for caring.

A midsize casino. Clean and free soda. But,the machines were very tight.

A homey & smaller casino, comfortable and could use some updating. A nice change of pace from the bigger casino-resorts around it.

Small, lots of keno machines. Good food at restruaunt and small buffet.

One of my favorite casinos. So much fun and the food is yummy

I love this place. Nice buffet and great atmosphere.

It's my favorite place they have multi board Keno penny

Small casino, kind of stuffy. Cheap food for a casino though, especially at the cafe.

Had so much fun there. I actually won some money on the slots!!!

Too small, it's not well organized. People had to wait about an hour to get their player card. Only 3 clerks working for bus loads of people. Guest that come on a bus are very limited on time. I will not be going back. Didn't see anybody win, either.

Small and quaint, but they have good slots and food.

Loved the experience. Food was great, clean restrooms. Employees were helpful!!

Great Atmosphere, Won Money with in 30 minutes of arrival. Good Food,& Desert.

Awesome time at this casino. The ride up the mountains are so pretty.

Best Casino in Southern California. I drive here from Long Beach, it's that worth it. The slots, buffet, and the free fountain drinks.

Disappointed the buffet wasn't open. Good job on masks and distancing.

Super clean great breakfasts and off course the machine they pay.

Terrific buffet for the price which is about half the other casinos

Sean was very nice and Helped me to my car in the rain , he really saved the day !! IT was late./. Give him a Raise, He's Motivated !! he worked 3.2.2014 his shift was off at 6 or 8am ..the guy at the door .

Great place to relax with friends. Service is outstanding. Limited cafe menu but tasty. Theme buffet each day: lobster Friday, BBQ Saturday - I want to try them all!

Gotta say it was a lucky night tonight went in to get some wings and pizza, Wasnt planning on playing but this one called me and I played and it was great.. Had a good time with my mom. Will be back again.

Great buffet and great selection of slots and tables. I like the coziness of it.

Pauma , is one my favorite casinos to go to the staff is the atmosphere is fun never a and the slots are top of the line .
If you just get away and have some fun Pauma is the place to go.

Nice and very friendly...I will come back and visit soon.

BE WARNED CASINO PAUMA IS NOT A CASINO AT ALL. THEY ARE SO CORRUPT AND FRAUD. IF THERE WAS A REAL GAMING COMMISSION MONITORING THEM THEY WOULD BE SHUT DOWN. THEY HAVE A .0001% WIN RATE. THE SLOT ATTENDANTS WILL COME AROUND AND MESS WITH THE MACHINES TOO MAKE SURE YOU DONT WALK OUT WITH ANY WINNINGS. THERE WEEKLY DRAWINGS ARE SO RIGGED AND THE WINNERS ACTUALLY WORK FOR THE CASINO. THIS PLACE IS SUCH A SCAM AND THIS PLACE SHOULD NOT BE LABELED AS A CASINO. GO ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT A SLIGHT CHANCE OF WINNING. THE RATING SHOULD BE -10 THE PLACE IS A SESS POOL OF DISEASES.

Very good price ions in the bar and atmosphere to dance.

The food is very good good choice of games to play and is very clean. The staff there is number one rate the service is timely and friendly. Very nice place for entertaining your guests and friends.

Nice casino games with free wifi and coffee and soda.

Good place to gamble without crowds and low food rates.

Great Buffet Friday seafood, happy hour, live music friday and saturday with fun dance music R&B and Oldies with Beatles music. Frequent Jackpot pay outs.

Slots tend to be looser...and they provide a good amount of freeplay and food credit every week...which is totally awesome!

What a pleasure is all I can say about The Pauma Grove Buffet the hidden gem of No. San Diego Co.. The reason I state this so emphatically has to do with two features. The most important being quality where Pauma really excels. The second feature would be value. As far as I'm concerned they are unbeatable in a 30 mile radius. Sorry Pala and Pechanga but you guys have really dropped the ball when it comes to quality affordable dining. When Pechanga first got going they had a pepper roasted prime rib buffet that was untouchable so what happened right? I went there a few times after the quality had diminished and notated this on the comments section of my bill but to no avail. In closing I will say the little guy seems to have to put out more effort and the big players take your patronage for granted. Keep on rocking Pauma, we love you!

Love it...its small and the machines are awsome...nice enviornment staff super friendlu

What a nice casino!! Christmas day was our first time. The snow at home kept us in Temecula an extra day. We enjoyed the buffet, and the extra $5 free play on Thursday. Looking forward to returning soon. Love the classic slot machines, my favorite.

Small casino. Sad they took away the free coffee. Good comps if you play often.

One Word ... Tight ... Took my Money ... Rare if you get Bonus on a Machine .
