Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa

I have to admit this place is amazing compared to the old morongo. Once you see the building the first thing that comes to your mind is that it looks soo much like the Palms casino in Las Vegas. The slot machines aren't loose at all, the old morongo you tend to win alot more, but once the new morongo open it gets harder and harder to win. So play table games, thats the only way you can win. I stopped going because its been hard to win there. The food court is nice but needs more tables and needs to be bigger. I have been to the club and it is a nice club but i would recommend a better dj and a bigger lounge area. Pros: nice dealers, great place to hang out with friends Cons: slots arent loose, some cocktail waitresses are rude more

Just a few minutes out of Palm Springs and about a 2 hour drive from LA, Morongo Casino is an oasis of Vegas-style gaming. Relatively new, clean and modern, Morongo aspires to the kind of casual hipness that the Palms Casino in Las Vegas has, while welcoming to gamblers from twenty-one to eighty-one. The poker room is a little on the small side, but it's always busy. There are a LOT of slots to choose from (though I think they're not as 'loose' as the ones in Vegas), and a fair array of table games like blackjack and pai gow. The food court is usually packed, which makes for a cattle car experience, but the buffet is very good, with service and food to rival any buffet found on the Strip. Good for a gambling fix when you don't feel like hitting the traffic on I-15. Pros: clean and modern decor, friendly service, vast array of slots and table games Cons: crowded on weekends, food court is way too small to accomodate the crowds more
