Stopped there for dinner and a little gambling on a Thursday evening, just a week after they opened. We have had much better times at Cache Creek, River Rock, and Jackson Rancheria. I lost $60 in about 7 minutes seated at the Wizard of Oz penny machine, placing $2 bets.

I will say that the staff we encountered were very polite and helpful, and the bathrooms were clean. The potato salad we got as a side dish was also very bland. The overall platters were seriously child-sized portions.

My pulled pork platter had exactly 5 mouthfuls of pork, and the corn muffin was as big as a small fig. These platters both included one side and coleslaw and what was described as a corn muffin. I ordered a small pulled-pork platter and my friend ordered a small brisket plate. Instead, there is a small selection of overpriced restaurants and then a food-court style selection where we got totally ripped off at the Roadhouse BBQ. While historically, casinos have had a buffet option, and those are lower priced, this does not exist at Graton Casino. The casino itself has 3000 slot machines, so is quite large, but the variety of machines seemed to be lacking. Starting with all the plastic plants on the north entrance, it appears cheap and tacky.
