The place has really changed .not many prior employees there anymore. Epic buffet is closed and may never returned . Its all non smoking but some ignorant lady was smoking while playing slots . The slots are still tight. Don't go there thinking your gonna win money

We went purely for the buffet. It's only open Fri and Sat, I believe. Very spend at $28 or $30, whatever it was, but the food was *worth it*! Especially the prime rib. The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. I will do this again.

Love the decor!

So much fun and right off the highway.

I enjoy going to the casino and racetrack to make my donation, however, I only gamble the amount I'm willing to lose. The only thing the prevents me from giving the 5th star is the smoky atmosphere. I realize that there are "smoke free" sections, but I still have to go through the smoking section to get to where I want to be.

I won a lot money here but they do not give you any comps you can play slots or table games forever and they give you nothing in return unlike any casino I ve ever met
Sports book closes at midnight
Drinks are weak and expensive

The smoke smell from cigarettes is almost to the point of being overwhelming! Heard a good band but seating is lacking in the lounge and really the lounge is nothing more then a area with its own bar but not really separate from the casino floor so the din from the casino can be heard. We also ate in the spirts bar, food was ok served quickly and pricing was about right for a casino. The better deal is the Epic Buffet. Plenty of tables and slots.

It was very nice inside! But just a tad bit to crowded for my taste. Would definitely go back though- heard the restaurant up top is ready good- cannot wait to try it.
Talk about heart failure as we.wear leaving we started to stop @ the stop sign- take or give a second ( & that I just didn't put my window up) We would've had some very unwanted company......it's just one of those experiences that you will never forget- out of nowhere on my side (passenger) from a bunch of bushes-a freak'n " pheasant " literally just came right @ us- all I could've think Holy Moly I almost had him on my lap. Even the people behind isn't even jumped & were shocked . We came to the conclusion maybe he was " drunk/ hungover flying ".......lol

Not a horrible casino. Is on the smaller side and does have a small selection of tables. You can still smoke but it also has non smoking sections. Not the best signage to let you know where these areas end/start.

Disappointed I have a new card and did not get anything toward food.Not even a penny.My friend who plays with me got 2$ toward their food I inquired and was told I am in a different system. My friend is using the older card
. Three stars for today.Thank Ypu.

I had a chance to eat at the Eatery. I had a hot dog, wasn't bad. I also had an order of their seasoned home chips. Alot to be desired, for $4 and change, very greasy and no seasoning, not even salt. No pricing on fountain drinks, you get surprised when they ring it up for $3 and change and not very big either.

I like the entertainment here.They have a good band that i like to see and dance too.You don't have to pay to park your car or pay for the entertainment.Which is a nice treat.They have very clean bathrooms.People are nice here.They also have valet parking.

There is lots to do at Hollywood. Slots, table games, poker, horseracing, food, etc. The establishment is clean. I would have given it 5 stars, but I literally got carded at least 10 plus times this evening. There were horse races so my husband and I were in and out. I am in my mid 30's. I asked for a bracelet so I didnt have to get carded everytime I went to a different level or outside and they still continued to card me and my husband (who is older then I am) every time. Anytime I've ever gotten a bracelet at another casino I've never had this issue. That's what the bracelet is for so i dont have to pull my drivers license out multiple times. I understand the need to be careful and to make sure you are of age to be in there, I get it. I also get that I dont look like I'm in my mid 30s. But I also dont look like im under 21. Why even have bracelets then? Other then that we had a good time. Its definitely worth checking out.

Not one of my favorite casinos to go to, but we we're camping 35 minutes away...I have never won there and don't get anything even when I play on my card.. Rather stay and give my money to a casino that gives back (the Meadows is a good one)

Table games are fun. Dealers are very accommodating, and helpful for anyone just starting out at whatever game they're playing. Minimum never goes below 10 bucks for most games. Always a good time there though. Tons of slots, and helpful staff. Beautiful exterior and interior. Always have a blast when I go.

Edit to my initial review- went to the table games tonight, and tried to play Spanish 21. Unfortunately, 2 seats were being held for some reason that I'm not sure of? I'm there to spend money now. The people that they're holding the seats for are not. They're absent. It was not a reserved table, nor was it private. Spanish 21 is one of the most popular casino games in the world. How are you going to allow people to reserve chairs? I waited 25 minutes, and the people never came back to the table. Should definitely look into changing that policy. It's a Saturday night at a casino, it's extremely busy. Why are they allowing people to hold chairs with no chips at the only Spanish 21 table?

This casino has shocked me for the last time. I go about two times a year. How can machines, even a penny machine, pay you only .04 cents on a 2.50 bet consistently? They're like little thieves now. I understand that slots are the worst for paying out and that they need to make money, but watching that time and time again all night long - it just isn't "fun" anymore. Not only that, it's been AGES since I saw ANYONE else hit big either! We did hit a penny machine for $100.00, but that was with well over 50 machines played. If you want a hot dog, get ready to shell out $6.00!!!!!!!! If you smoke bring plenty with you, $11.00 a pack!!!!!!!! When the machines say to "Collect Your Winnings" - they really mean "Collect What's Left of What You Just Lost-We'll Get It Later". Someone told me there was something in the paper about them paying the fine PA imposes when they don't make their payout because it is cheaper than making the payouts! Rip-off from beginning to end! Stay far away from this place. To the person who mentions all the wonderful things - specifically the restaurants, I had the buffet on New Years Eve and they had crap legs. Yum, I thought - till I sat down and they were COLD, some still frozen?!?! Whoever made that comment must be an employee or a VIP with special connections! Average Joe's can forget it!

I went to one of the food places in the casino and has the BEST pizza I have ever had. It was quickly served. This was kinda late in the night so it was surprising at how good it was and not just warmed up.

It is a place to go and forget your problems, you go with an amount you can spend because you are going to lose...I love meeting new people and talking to them, you realize how small the world is...

Okay
