If its been a few years since u last visited I posted a picture of the entrance no more dusty roads its a professional well managed and maintained Casino. I will definetely be back we left at 8am from San Antonio and arrived back at our home by 7pm after spending 5hrs there we spent less than roundtrip air fare to Las Vegas.

Our buffet was only $8.99 with offerings of Roast Beef, Baked Ham, Ravioli, BBQ Chicken, Pork Chops and your standard Salad bar, desert bar with pies and fantastic Soups. The do not serve free cocktails but through out the casino floor there are self serve soft drink, coffee, tea, and water machines that are completely free. Aisle had plenty of room for moving around, and there is a huge Bingo Dome set off to the side but connected to the main floor, in addition there is a poker room area that fills up quick. The place was not smokey even though there were smokers. The restrooms and there are several were all very well kept and clean. Everyone was so freindly from the club desk staff to the Waitresses and floor people.

We are not high rollers just penny, nickel slot types so the wins were good for us and getting there and back on one tank of gas in a Ford Escape was impressive. There were 9 of us and even those who didn't win anything significant had only minor bruises to thier pocket books with losses well within $100 and wins from $165 - $350. Driving from San Antonio on a Drizzly day we arrived in 2.5hrs and never had to drive thru Eagle Pass. There is a Cocktail bar/grill, the RiverBend Cafe, and the RioGrande Buffet food is not pricey and the selections while modest are good with options for dieters and vegans, btw I loved the soups at the Buffet. I think the machines are very freindly and hope the stay that way. The Casino boasts 1800 machines but without counting I would say its much more than that with multi denom, classic, and new video machines just like I play in Las Vegas. Parking lot is spacious well lit and freshly paved.

Once you arrive a golf cart shuttle can fit up to 10 people and take u directly to the door and back to your vehicle. There is a new cut through off the highway onto Loop 480 takes u directly to the casino with just with just a right turn and then a left into the drive to parking all well paved and brand new. Let me start by sayin the reviews for this place are way off track or right on track depending which ones you read basically the positive ones are right the negative ones are either old or biased.
