Happy Holidays! Emerald Island Casino is one of the very few Casinos in the entire Valley that truly caters to their Customers. They have set the stage for a more personal experience rather than just a number. We feel very welcomed and they even know your name! We have visited the Casino many times this year and the entire staff is always making sure you are treated well and they keep everything wiped down and clean for their patrons constantly. Their Gaming floor has a lot to offer in a large variety of Slots, and, along with excellent promotions throughout the week, food giveaways like Pizza and Tacos (they even pass out desert too) and their Restaurant is rated #1 for a reason! We got a cool photo of Tim (owner) helping out on Taco Fridays. :-) Also, if you havent checked out next door, they recently opened the Rainbow Club Casino and its another great choice for gaming and dining! Downtown Henderson is lucky to have them as a members of the community! Cheers to your continued success and well deserved!
Best locals casino in the whole Las Vegas metro & Henderson area. Friendly staff & owner. Loose slots & great selection of them. Good food, comps, giveaways, raffles. The big corporate casinos dont even compare to this level of total customer service. Emerald wins hands down in all categories. Ive been a local in the Vegas area for 32 yrs, so I know whats good customer service and what isnt. Emerald Island truly is a jewel and not just figuratively. Best wishes for its continued success.
Food was decent, but service was horrible. Once seated, took forever to get our server. Ordered a wedge salad (as described by their menu), came as chopped Romain lettuce. I asked whats the deal with that--was told thats how we do it.Waited quite a while for our food to arrive. Drinks sat empty. Meanwhile, a table near us must have had an off duty, or former employee, as eveyone and their brother came by the table to chat, hang out, including managers, all while the tables around were being ignored. Seemed like a social gathering for employees, rather than a restaurant.Food eventually came out, by a different server. Order was wrong, of course our server would never know, because he was MIA. Our server eventually makes an appearance about halfway through the meal, then tried to fix the issue--but it was far too late. They did eventually correct the issue.Bill was dropped off, no accommodation made for the errors, was told he would be take payment when we were ready. Credit card was immediately placed by the bill. We sat, and sat, and sat, while watching our server run around to various other tables, taking care of their bills, while walking past ours. Eventually got fed up, and took our bill to the cashiere.One of the worst experiences weve had in this town. Completely inexcusable.Wont be coming back.
Emerald Island has been one of my all time favorite casinos to play and enjoy great service. Thank you for keeping the great video poker machines and restaurant after reopening. This would be a tall order but I have read other reviews and a non-smoking gaming floor would be such a great idea. With everything going on today and health reasons, I would believe the change would work. If a casino has great machines, service, and restaurant amenities, they would succeed in business.
BEST IN SLOTS, FOOD, & SERVICE in Henderson, Nevada for a reason. Our experiences have always been fantastic. The Staff work very hard to maintain a clean environment. The restaurant prepares a great Menu and their Steak and Lobster and Ribs are excellent and a great deal! For a small local Casino, they really have a lot going on with promotions and specials unlike we have ever seen at any other Casino in the valley. We really get a kick out of their staff bringing you Ice Cream bars while you are playing and they even have Free Taco and Chili Dog nights and other food they pass out while playing. This is an example of how they engage with their customers. The promotions from Spinning the Wheel for Cash to Senior Wednesdays are really fun too. We enjoy the quaintness of Emerald Island Casino and everybody we have met from the owner Tim who is always engaging with the Customers while he is on the floor, to the Bar staff: Frank, Donna, June, and Phil with promotions have always said something nice and made your stay pleasurable.
Its just like home for my partner. She feels safe and attended to by a very professional staff. She relaxes and allows her to test her skill. Also Tim is a very generous owner. Gifts and meals with points is also an incentive to enjoy the excellent food offered.
My husband and I were gambling for 2 and a half hours. No one ever asked us if we wanted anything to drink.I told my husband maybe we have to get if from the bar. Maybe they dont have cocktails waitress on the floor. Then the man that was behind me got a cup of coffee. She just walked by me without a word. I said to my husband lets go. We will not be back.
Had a great time. Food is very good. Drink servers are prompt and very nice. Bathrooms are spotless. Lots of different slots including the newest ones. Will be back soon.
The food was great in the restaurant. The staff there is great. The servers in the restaurant had a great personality. They made our brunch fun. The workers in the casino are very nice. At least they give you something back for playing there. We like this place. Definitely will be back.
A small mostly locals casino that is packed with fun and entertainment. I really enjoy their cafe and friendly employees. It is definitely my go to place for a good meal and some gaming.
Horrible casino set up and service that was my first impression. I went into this dump after losing big at another casino. I was eyed and profiled as if I didn’t belong. While checking out the games and waiting for a game to come free, I notice the same staff member eyeing me. This woman walks up asks if I’m playing, I said I will be. I asked if she wants me to move, she stated there is no place to go without a machine. She told me I could not just come to that casino to hang out. All of this was during the first 15 minutes of me walking in to the place.
The ribs are nothing to rave about but I heard the steak and lobster is great deal. Im waiting for that and hopefully Ill have a better experience. Its a small neighborhood casino with 24/7 kitchen
Emerald Island is a fun place. All slots r a penny. We had lots of fun. They also serve food to u right at your slots. Ive never seen this at any other casino. Visit Emerald Island u wont b sorry.
Came here for their Friday meal special which was an appetizer of shrimp cocktail and the entree a filet mignon a lobster tail with veggies and a baked potato and for dessert a raspberry chocolate cake for 20 dollars you cant find anything around that price point and amount of food here in Vegas. Just a heads up expect to wait for up to an hour because of limited seating during the pandemic but I doubt you will regret eating here.
Good paying games, Great staff.. great food.. Overall a fun place to play
Great place to earn comp points that can be used a ton of places! But especially for their yummy food!
We love the food specially the chicken alfredo from graveyard so creamy and tons of flavor one of our friend told us about that pasta they ate there was bomb she told us to go during the graveyard shift cuz she tried it in the morning and it was so bland so we did went for the pasta at graveyard and let me tell you it was worth its way better then Olive Garden so definitely going back
The food was great but the machines were tight. Good time
Best casino bar none ... Great staff, excellent food, and loose machines
I like playing here, the machines have a fair amount of payouts and they are always doing promotions and drawings, etc. The cafe is 24 hrs. and the food is very good and very reasonably priced. The cafe always has different specials, making the food even cheaper still. And when you sign up for the rewards card they always give you a coupon you can redeem for a free meal . My only complaint would be that now due to the limited capacity if you try to visit on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon or evening, you would likely have to leave because the place is literally too full! You would be hard pressed to find a single machine that was unoccupied. No exaggeration either.
The place is cool really good staff and good promos everyday around the clock, and great food
Good food. Very reasonably priced. Good service
Most fun, relaxing, friendly place. Drive from Southern Utah right past Mesquite so we can get to the place that is PAYING...jackpots, bonuses, and THE BEST FOOD EVER !! Always an enjoyable time.
The restaurant has great food and wonderful staff! Casino employees are very courteous and friendly. We always have a great time here, our favorite local hangout!
This is the Jewel of Henderson...they are practicing social distancing, while ensuring the patron receives the best experience.
Love the atmosphere and music. Very relaxing. The restaurant food is outstanding and very affordable.
The look of it is cool and i loved the music that was playing. Food was really good but unfortunately there was a really bad odor of cigarette smell that came thru our masks to the point we were getting headaches... :(
We love this place. Everyone knows your name. New as well as the older employees. Such great customer service. We love to eat at the restaurant. Patty is a awesome server . Thank you emerald island
It feels like home...Everyone is Nice and helpful and Friendly ...my Fave place to go
Always a great time here! My favorite spot in Henderson.
Food is amazing! Awesome slow smoked BBQ Every Wednesday! Great prices too! Must come visit!
This casino is dingy and stunk of cigarette smoke. I will never return to this place again. Find a casino that has a good ventilation system and save your lungs.
Chili dogs on Thursdays with free Gift with points earnings is fun. Looking forward to making this a staple for Thursday nights out with my Grandparents (they are regulars). Hoping to win big once or twice!
Everyone is so nice, the food is great...and the gambling is not bad either.
Nice little local casino. Clean and good resturant. Nice staff
Emerald island treats you like family. Fun casino with a great restaurant. Where else can you be offered a free slice of pizza while gambling.
Ive currently been waiting for 40-45 mins for food and now a refund. I was surprised that this place has such a good reviews until the manager still offered me the food I ordered after giving me my refund. I declined of course because my pride wouldnt let me accept it because Im black and they might think I was trying to get a free meal. Ill give 3 stars instead of 1
They treat you like family, where else will you get free tacos and Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream! All while enjoying a few drinks served by beautiful barmaidens... I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
I feel very comfortable, the food is good and I enjoy the slots.
I absolutely love going to the Emerald Island Casino. Their staff is absolutely attentive, friendly and absolutely experienced in what they do The drinks are strong when requested, the food is affordable and lip-smacking delicious.
My Wife And I Love going to this Casino there is a particular penny slot game that we really enjoy playing. They have a lot of fun games and we usually have decent luck playing there.
The wait for a available table to eat is not worth the wait. Yet if you order food to go it does come within 15 min an is tasty food.
This place is small but has a good assortment of games. Some of the people, staff and guests, are a little strange like if youre not a regular they kind of dont want you there. But overall a good experience.
Good food. Kitchen open late. Weekend specials are good.
We LOVE his place. NOLA 9th Warder - BEST ribs in town... BAR NONE. You would need to go to St. L or Texas to get any thing close. And they treat the patrons right! Stations, MGM, BOYD, etc... eat your lunch any day. Jim, Caryn, Paulette. SO HAPPY THEY SURVIVED THE CORONA FARCE Commissar Sissy-lack caused. Will be there TODAY.
Great place are you most of my breakfast here waitresses on the night shift Chris and Deja are great employees on the floor fantastic
Great local atmosphere with friendly staff. Restaurant was good and the special on Friday night was Lobster and Filet Mignon.
Loved the ambiance, cocktails and music. Definitely vibin!
Looks small on the outside but large inside food is great good cooks
Customer service is the best ive ever experience even when you lose on there machines the employees there make it worth it i love this casino many give aways as well everyday and when you lose your gambling points give you reward points on your players card to make up for it because youll diffently have enough for a meal at the end of your play.
BBQ was delicious, gaming experience was good, won some money. Thanks for a good time!
Food was good. Everyone is friendly. Social distancing is being practiced
Emerald Island Casino is definitely one of my favorites here in Henderson. I will always wish they allowed points-to-freeplay (, Emerald) but you can use points on food nonetheless & they sure do serve some awesome food at the Emerald! Rather pricey for my taste so Id rather throw my money in their slot machines! The meatball subs are an all-time favorite of mine anywhere in Henderson thus far. You will always have a great time at Emerald Island Casino with the huge variety of slots & a really good staff.
This place is the friendliest casino ive ever visited. They know their customers by name. The owner is hands on and can often be seen there making sure things are running smooth. The machines are usually paying well and i can usually say ive won. If i didnt put it all back in things would be fantastic. The resturant is excellent. The staff are all top notch. They put a lot of focus on keeping the property exceptionally clean. It is awesome that they have. A give away every day . They randomly provide snacks to players. They have free pizza day for players, free chili dogs for players and free tacos for players. Every day they have something. They have great drawings. I love this place as you can see. Emerald Island ..where every day is promotion day.
We love this casino great people plus they now own the Rainbow and plan to open early September . Very impressed
The food here is GREAT! They do a good job of letting you know all the promos going on for the Players Club and theres always something cool.The casino is older so it has that smokey smell, but the service is great, the food is great and their players club has a lot to offer. Its nice to have someplace fun to go when youre near Water Street.
They are a great local.place for breakfast. Good coffee they give the flavored creamer.
So good to be back. Love the hand sanitizer! Cant wait to eat!
This was my mom’s favorite casino! Been here a million times. Tons of penny games. The employees here are top notch! They are always kind and friendly and from change people to cocktails always around.They bring snacks around every few hours that are FREE and TASTY!The only downside is it is Smokey and sometimes if crowded a little too much.
Machines not hitting today for me went in with $100 and left with $102. LOL
Best drink servers and staff,love their machines and their daily promotions.
Our breakfast is good or a very friendly staff and will be going back We are so glad they did not change the menu
Food was very good, but it was too crowded on the casino floor. We left.
Well I could use their nice restroom!!+
Cool time-warp place. Youd think you were back in the 1940s if it werent for the modern machines. Very atmospheric, and also very popular. Free cupcakes brought around were a nice touch.
Great food and good gambling with good social distancing
Very clean and good pay outs. Nice people.
Love this place! We gambled here 4 out of the 8 days we were in the Vegas area. Small local casino with many slots and video poker machines . No table games. Very clean. Fantastic staff who go way out of their way to make your experience enjoyable. They offer free treats to all customers, eg. Baked goods on Thursday and pizza on Friday. We even enjoyed free ice cream sandwiches one afternoon. Many drawings for gifts and money. They really appreciate their patrons. The cafeteria is large and busy with many daily specials. Great food! Nice gift shop with many and varied selections.
This place is the best..... A hidden gem in Henderson
Best payouts in the valley ! I took a star off as their players club is worthless unless you want to eat hot dogs.
Great place. Great food. Great staff.
Fun place. Very accompanied
Amazing atmosphere and such friendly staff
Always a fun time and restaurant has excellent food.
This place has the worse security service ever. I worked here and they used me and refused to pay me after I quit . They are for the company not the customer.
Great food..great service..
Great place to gamble and eat!
Very great customer service friendly people !!
This is the best place, everyone is friendly, food is good too
If it werent for one lady at the players club I would give five stars however she gave us the worst customer service. Instead of taking a few minutes to help me, twice she walked away when I wasnt done. She rushed me both times I went to the players club. Thankfully the other lady knew what guest service is all about, which Is why she got a tip. I wish I knew there names. Overall a nice time with decent slot play. Its a shame one person has me not wanting to go back.
Our favorite casino!°
It OK. Never win. Tired of going there. Hear about people winning there, but I never have. I guess I dont play enough.
To long of waiting to be seated
The food is always delicious & the employees treat you like family!
EMERALD island is a hidden local GEM casino, they are amazing me and my brother went here an won 3 hand pays and we have never won a hand pay ever. We put in $100 dollars in a started betting on 1 machine $2.25 a spin and hit a buffalo bonus, the 2nd game was Mighty cash Red Dragon clicked on 5 cent denomination and getting a hand pay. This is a must go to when in vegas.
The number one best casino for giving out the coolest stuff - seriously, they give away way cool stuff to players with players card, free food, where everyone eats free - and its always something thats both filling and good- steak sandwiches, and tacos, etc..The customer service is amazing. This is honestly the best casino in Henderson or in Vegas, where people are treated very well. They exceed my expectations in what they offer. Definitely would recommend going here, because of that.
I love Emerald Island Casino !! It is a small casino locals love it. The Food Is Fabulous,Lots of specials on the Menu everyday.Also with credits earned, on the machines, you can earn lots of very good price, usableItems. You can trade earned credits forAlso wonderful, home cooked mealsThere are no stairs to climb and no elevators. Lots of room to park and they have close Handicap Parking!!
Great guest service.staff is soo friendly and food is grest
I had The Dawnald sandwich, and my friends ordered the French Dip, which proved to be impossibly huge, and we were both very happy with the food, although the servers were MIA pretty much all the time. Will definitely be back
Best little Casino in the world. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff.
Mom likes to go out here and its close to home
Reminds me of how Vegas used to be with the great food and low prices
