Fort McDowell Casino Reviews

Used to be a more enjoyable stop..... Now we just fly right by..... Live in scottsdale, we just go home.

I put my money to break money into smaller bills in the machines they have. The machine just took my money and workers there said I was lying when I told them what happened. told them to look at video. Must have scam going with the machines. Not coming here any more.

First time ever going to a casino. It was pretty nice. I stayed about 30 mins and started playing with the $15 in free play money. Won $40 with that my 1st time on one machine and took that $40 and won $80 on another machine. So my first time went pretty well.

Had a fun time ! Didnt win .. ! But it was good to get out ..

The place was dirty bathrooms had pee all over the floor. Not a variety of slot machine. High limit area is small not many machines. Security was rude about having a backpack which my wife uses as a purse.

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO GOOD QUALITY SERVICE?!?

I ordered a hot pastrami and corn beef w/Swiss on a hoagie roll with extra mustard and what I received was a burnt meat and cheese sandwich, the hoagie roll was even burnt.
If I had time I would have taken it back and had you do it over again.

How can you think that it's OK to service food like that? Doesn't ANYONE take PRIDE in what they cook and serve to customers any more?

I Love Fort McDowell for the bingo and the slot machines but I will not be eating at the NEW YORK DELI OR SILVER PLATTER until you can train your staff to take pride in what they are serving.

The Big Question is: DOESN'T ANYONE TAKE PRIDE IN WHAT THEY ARE SERVING WHETHER IT BE FOOD OR JUST GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE? WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT?!? PRICES GO UP AND GREAT STANDARDS AND GREAT QUALITY GO OUT THE DOOR!!!

With the new and improve Casino you are going to be building think about how your patrons would like to be treated and served because if it weren't for us there wouldn't be a Fort McDowell Casino

Very disappointed!

Longer drive from the valley but fun to play the machines

never win save your money TOO CHEAP to sent out coupon book

We stop by to eat lunch and the staff were very helpful, welcoming and cleanliness facility! We will COME BACK SOON!

Got to give it a bad review I lost money I didn't win and that's a good place to go to

Quaint bar with a cool band "Flashback". Casino is a bit of a drive, but it was a nice place to meetup with friends.

Great price for the Buffet - Senior night 7.99 each.. played some slots only lost my $20

A place to gamble away your money. Dark and smoky. Very crowded.

Dealers and greeters welcomed me right on in Made me excited to spend my money

Nice people very nice and personable poker dealers and poker supervisor(George)
The only major issue I have is no matter where you go in the casino the air system doesn't seem to be very effective because I didn't walk through the inside of the casino very much and I stunk like smoke when I walked outside I could smell myself very bad and I'm a non-smoker

Nice resort/casino, very accommodating nice rooms, pool was nice with a bar for a cold tropical drink. Casino was very nice, did well

Awesome place to stay especially during the forth of july .

to many lazy workers, to many druggies, someone always trying to sell you a phone.or something to get money..only two people work in valet.

Loved playin BINGO!! Won a intermission game. Split! Also won on slots before and inbetween playing bingo. Went home happy. Thank you Fort..

prime rib tough. crab legs very salty. food on buffet didnt look fresh. dessert frozen

Not a smoker and I get it they allow smoking. They need an updated or need to install a ventilation system. I wouldn't recommend anyone with respiratory issues to go there. The smoke literally permeates through your clothes to your skin. I feel sorry for the employees. As far as slots....not much payout.

Honestly love this casino just wish I lived closer !!!

My first time here, i won a hand payout. It was so exciting

First time there and last. Never won enough to keep playing. I did win spins once on a 5.00 bet and won 6.40! Everyone around me was complaining how tight the machines where. Wow, very sad...

This place is the worst casino. The payout is absolutely horrible. You never see hand payouts much less machine payouts. I can put 100.00 in slots and the biggest payout would be 10.00.
DON'T Waste YOUR MONEY. Go to Arizona Casino

Nice atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff. Sushi bar is awesome.

They take tempature, give gloves and mask if want or need.

I'm a video poker player and have had trouble finding VP machines in the Phoenix area casinos, but this casino had plenty! And, they even had a good selection in the non-smoking areas. I'll definitely be returning. My only small complaint is the parking lot. It's seems to be set up a little strange, like it was built for an older structure that's been remodeled, but the lot didn't change with it.

I would have to say this is one of my favorite casinos(its a toss up with Harrah's)Not only do the machines pay out decent-the rewarsld card has multiple benefits that makes it worth it to put it in the machine.Not only do you get free play based on how much you spend at the casino but your comp for free food builds up super fast.The staff is always so friendly and there fry bread is yummy in my tummy!For sure deserves more than 5 stars and is worth checking out!

One of our favorite Casino's. They have great priced buffets. Check it out online or on your cell to see what the food is for the day you want to go. It's a bit of a drive but not really that far. Plus a large bingo hall with a none smoking area. We enjoy it every time we go.

Fort McDowell is probably one of my favorite casinos. Usually always lets me leave with a little something extra. The staff has always been courteous and friendly... Great place to go to blow off some steam, and well some cash.

Indian casinos are notorious for not paying as well as those in Las Vegas or Laughlin, Nevada. Also, alcoholic drinks are not free.

Excellent hotel and bonus play offers. They offer the cheapest slots of all the surrounding casinos, but the money you save on that, gets eaten up by all the gas you need just to get out there.

Mayan wonderful place to stroll in the afternoon and dine at the Mammut steak house on the terrace appreciating the Superticion mountains

I get over here from VFW state convention and from mother-in-law living up the hill and have always found good food and pleasant staff. They generally go out to make your visit a good experience especially important during the new casino construction period. Come on over.

We went to the buffet for dinner. The crab legs were over boiled you could not get them out of the shell. The prime rib was so dry not worth the $63 for dinner we spent. The service was good. 15 minutes

Very fun. When the Ashsi Restaurant is open, it is very good.

It's ok, not very many people the day I went, must have been a OFF day for them but not my cup of tea

Restaurant food was delicious, friendly service, professional staff, but they need to supply PPE for customers and constantly sanitize. Supply face mask, gloves, and hand sanitizers.

Not bad I one 150 dollars but it definitely needs a update to the decor.

What today was a big celebration at the Indian Nation where the casino is they had a rodeo and a pow wow some of the most beautiful Indian dancing and costumes that you ever laid eyes on and then I went to the casino and I got lucky the casino paid for my buffet dinner or I had Seafood and Prime Rib that was just superb so you might say I enjoyed my Sunday

We were very disappointed. Not a very clean casino, no Mother's Day buffet and very disorganized. I'm going to stick with Talking Stick.

Had a blast and the ladies at the deli were so nice! And walking out a winner is always a plus!!

First time here and parking is too far from door and I didn't win anything!!! Not even $10!!

Really helpful lady in players club, N. Wilson I believe is her name, awesome customer service. Enjoyed the games and machines actually pay. Had Fun

Great place to play some black jack. My favorite casino. The only casino I go to.

They must be really broke at that casino very old-fashioned and the machines do not pay very well a trick you into thinking you're going to win one of the worst casinos I've ever been to

Nice, more slots added, seems like the place grew. I didn't win, but I still had a good time. Beverage service was great.

The casino is very smokey, the motel is very nice not smoky, clean and very comfortable. Pool area is beautiful.

This is my favorite casino. They seem to have the most slots, and an incredibly large bingo space. (It also happens to be where I have had the most luck)

Food was good. Would have tasted better if I won some money,. Machines were pretty tight

I never been to a Casino (kind of) anyway I would rather light my money on fire than lose it in a Casino. Oh GOOGLE !
