The property was clean, well maintained, and the staff was VERY cordial! I got a 'hello' when I arrived and a 'good bye' when I... More

Seemed the cigarette smoke went far beyond the smoking section. It was generally clean. The club had a band that was o.k. Half dressed girls dancing. There is an outlet mall right across the street.

The casino action is good, but the entertainment and outlet shopping are plusses.

We took a taxi there. In addition to a casino, there was also an outlet shopping center. As for the casino, it was loud and smoky!!! It was like being in Las Vegas.

On our way from Yuma to San Diego, and we pulled into the casino just to see what they had to offer. I was so impressed!! We stayed four hours, but could have stayed more. Lots of machines and tables. Staff was fantastic. Grounds & buildings very well maintained. Outlet mall & food court across the street with incredible bargains.... More

Concerts, gambling, shopping, and a GREAT buffet! I can do without the gambling, but I always have fun at Viejas watching the water dancing and the special entertainment that they bring occasionally. I like to be able to browse the store outlets on the strip or going across the street to indulge in the awesome Buffet. Yuuuuuuuuummmmmm! ...and cheap.
