Very unique gaming establishment. You have to see the place in person to believe it exists. This was once Bills gambling hall. I always assumed that it was part of Harrahs years back - as in Bill Harrah owning it all. Today its Dotty's. As you walk in there is one step up - be careful - it should be marked better with some yellow tape. Inside it looks like grandmas house. Very cozy and inviting. Not at all institutional... Plastic checkered tablecloths and potted plastic plants - its like grandma put a few slot machines and a bar in her living room. You are either going to love it or hate it - again - its so unique I love it for that. This is a locals casino. This is for people who hate big Walmart and Amazon. Interestingly enough Dotty's is fairly large corporation and I think the business model is to make it look 'mom and pop' when its not. Maybe you just moved here to this city and don't know anybody - this is your new second home. This is going to have a lot of the same crowd all the time. Out the back there are more exits and it goes around to the burger bar's backyard outdoor seating area. Boom!! I could be there as you turn the corner. Thats a cozy backdoor spot nobody knows about... and I think the lure of this place is probably few people know it even exists. read more

Dotty's Casino - Casinos Near Me - Stateline, Nevada

Dotty's. Love going to play there. A place where you can mind your own business, find a machine and try to focus on winning. Been playing there for 10+ years. Due to my schedule lately, I've only been able to go there late nights, early mornings. All the employees know me by name and they all are kind and courteous except one. I never see him doing anything except interrupting the main cashier when he or she is swamped with customers making the wait in line more unbearable. When he walks the floor he will pick and choose who he helps. I have sat at machines that the ashtrays are full of cigarette butts, drinks half drank and spills everywhere. He will ask the gal next to me if he can get her anything, she'll order a drink and not ask me anything at all. Come back with her drink and it ask me anything and goes back to behind the main desk. Never clean the station I'm at. And this happens every single time I am there. No service at all from this guy. I took a break from playing one evening, went to use the restroom and he actually came into the restroom and said to me, "if you are not playing you have to leave Dotty's" I said I'm going to the restroom. He said "that's not my problem" totally rude ! I finished pissing and left. Came back the next night and again he told me to leave if I'm not playing. There were maybe 6 customers there at that time. 3am in the morning. And again I was was playing but stopped for just a moment to watch my friend next to me who just hit a bonus. He said if you are not playing you need to leave. This employee does nothing but kick customers out of your casino and nothing else. Last night there were 2 other players in the entire casino and my friend just walked up to me and said he's done for the night. I had 5 dollars left on my machine and said okay , let me finish this off and we'll go home. So rite then he comes up and kicks my 78 years old friend out of the casino and it's freezing cold out with about 60 mph winds. I said just one minute I'm almost finished, there no one even in here, why do you have to be such a asshole. I want the number to your supervisor. I followed him to the main desk and he flung a Dotty's card at me and said now you get out two. I want want this employee fired immediately. His name is Rob and he works the graveyard shift at your stateline,South lake Tahoe NV. Dotty's casino. He is rude all I ever hear come out of his mouth is complaining about this customer or that customer. He is a real problem for your stateline Dotty's. read more

Customer service ,I forgot my phone there and when I returned home to Seattle I called and asked and begged them to please send it to me , they said no they won't ..so needless to say they don't give a sh** about customers read more

Cheapest drinks at stateline, and the nicest staff. Everytime I come to Tahoe, i always end up stopping here multiple times a night mainly for drinks, but the vibes here are unmatched. Definitely a little more smokey than other casinos but worth a check out! read more

Second time here in a month and I gotta say if you want better odds less smoke, food at your machine, and super nice staff-this is the place! While everything on the menu wasn't available. I had several good choices and the food is soooo cheap it's insane. Mini corn dogs for less than $4 and lots of old school gaming made it an amazing visit for me. Shout out to Rachelle for explaining how things work and being so welcoming and friendly read more

Dotty's Casino - Mini Corn Dogs - Casinos Near Me - Stateline, Nevada

One of the strangest places I've ever seen. It was like a fever dream of memories mixed together put into a casino. Quiet, very cheap drinks. The perfect place on my opinion read more

Dotties is full of interesting people that is fore sure. It is also a great place to push them buttons. When the machines are hot you can easily walk out with full pockets. Get ready to reek like smoke with a little bit of ass mixed in. The staff are very nice people and are usually up for some good conversation and a few good stories. Come on in and enjoy watching some recluse una bombers keep to themselves !! Good times let me tell you !! Seriously on the good times !! read more

Machine was broken, I waited for almost an hour for them resolved the issue. Why would you have a casino business and when it's broken you have nobody on site to fix your machine. A male manager showed up very rudely and not even apologetic about me waiting for almost damn hour. I feel bad for both lady that worked the bar and was very nice. While the manager showed up rudely and service was very unacceptable. Mr manager you are in no position to have a business and treats your customer badly. read more

Nice staff, small and mostly quiet area to play the slots. Lots of older games and their prices for cigarettes are awesome. Oh yeah, they have flavored nicotine vapes and menthol read more

Old school vibe. Lots of cigarette smoke. But a place you can sit and hide and play machines. I dig it here ..

I worked for Dotty's for 15 yrs & was told my position was being eliminated. A bid opened up for a Transfer clerk position, so I bid on it & got it only to find out the very next day that they were terminating my employment for ABSOLUTELY NO reason at all. So, my advice to anyone looking for work if you want to be just another number then Dottys w/b the ideal place but if you want to work for a company that recognizes & appreciates you as a person/employee then I strongly recommending to keep looking b/c whoever you are, you deserve to be valued as a person instead of a number. My advice for Dotty's Casino is get a more qualified President that knows what the hell she is doing b/c the one they have there now absolutely SUCKS!! Not just my personal opinion either!!! read more

Good people, good vibe, very clean, quiet. Old school. Perfect alternative to the hustle and bustle of larger casinos.

This is the best place in Lake Tahoe to gamble. Everybody's a winner. We went to all the other major casinos and did not win anything. We spent two hours in here enjoying free drinks and great service and winnings. Definitely check it out! read more

Dotty's Casino - Excellent service from her!! - Casinos Near Me - Stateline, Nevada

I won money here so of course I enjoyed my stop. Little place next to south lake Tahoe's casinos

I've been going to Dotty's pretty regularly over the last 5 years. I both won and lost here but it's convenient and enjoyable. I stopped at Dotty's today to redeem some free play and was told I was 86'd for theft of a voucher. I was told to call their 800 number to get more information. I am appalled. I didn't steal anyone's voucher and am offended at the allegation. I have called their corporate number and was told someone may get back to me in 10-15 days. I'd like to defend myself but Dotty's shelters its management from interacting with the public. It's pretty scary how a company can do this and ignore the facts. read more

So my boyfriend decides to randomly surprise me and take me to South Lake Tahoe this weekend for a getaway and we stumbled upon this little GEM.. It's not much to look at from the outside but if you're down to earth and don't mind a smoky dive- like mini casino this is the PLACE. We didn't gamble here or eat but we got EVERYTHING we needed for the entire weekend at more than half the price. I literally couldn't get enough of DOTTYS affordable prices and laid back atmosphere I WILL be returning again. read more

Don't expect a free drink if you play nickles. Rude employee's. Won't ever be back. Looks and feels like a dive bar.

Just an update on previous review 2 days ago. I went in today and spoke with store clerk and area manager for fallon #17 dottys and have received a confirmation about the issue that dottys will no longer be printing out undelivered free play vouchers to anybody any longer. So it's official they blame the customer for undelivered mail to themselves. I don't get it, but I know I will no longer be playing at any dottys casinos or any of their sister casinos. They may have been able to keep the 1 to 2 hundred dollars I earned in free play, but in the long run, they will lose 10's of thousands from me alone annually. Good job. Morons of marketing at best. Good luck all, and stay safe read more

Denise is one of the BEST and KINDEST souls I've ever crossed paths with! She went out of her way to wait on me. She made me feel comfortable during my first experience in a casino. She is a rare treasure. I'll definitely be back on the days she's working ! read more

In Stateline, I found Dotty's to be one of the best as far as customer service. They are accommodating and nice here!

If you like to be belittled and yelled at this is the place for you! The day shift male employee thought I was a tourist when in reality I'm a tahoe native just never really went to Stateline much. He treated me like dirt because of that. I'd really hate to see how he treats people that he knows are from tahoe. Go buy your cigarettes next door at tahoe vapory Christian is always the sweetest abs will let you vent if you end up getting treated like trash at dottys. Lmao. read more

You've got to be kidding to give a review on this place any higher than one star. We needed to use the bathroom, but upon waking in and looking around, it was clear we'd be holding it. The entire place was sticky and smoky. I understand the cigarette smoke however there was NO ventilation at all. We did not stay to gamble at all, so maybe the payouts are worth the torture for some??? Not able to comment on that, it's not worth it for me! read more

Was at dotty casino and was told by Brooke, it is the LAW, that they scan my ID.....Who's law, maybe their requirements but not law, she allowed another customer to verbally assault me. I was in casino 15 minutes before and had my ID scanned by same Brooke. This is the Dotty is Sparks, with Red Dragon and U1 casinos. read more

PARKING: There's an outside parking lot in the back by entering the Harrahs entrance driveway then veer left. ENTER?: You have to press a doorbell to be let in. Weird. Says they have to check ID on a sign, but nobody came to check. They just buzzed us in and the door unlocked. INSIDE: Not your typical big lights and decor casino. More like grandma's country living room with video poker machines. Counter looks like the wood counter at a bowling alley with a bunch of stuff behind it. One guy manning it. Quiet just the sound of video gambling machines beeping. OVERALL: Seems more for people who want more of a quiet chill less crowded environment, but I didn't like it. Seemed run down and old fashion in a rutty sort of feel. read more

My husband and I went to the Bourbon Street Bar in Dotty's Casino in Laughlin. Hardly anyone there. We ordered 2 drinks and gave the barmaid a $20 bill. She took off with it and never came back. I asked another worker if drinks cost $10 apiece..We got our $$ back, but will never be back. Also noticed all most arcade machines and many gambling machines out of order! read more

The staff here at Dotty's is awesome but the payout is horrible. Haven't won a jackpot here in almost 2 years. When I go all I ever do is lose. It didn't use to be this way. I think they have tightened up their payouts since the Covid shutdown. I love the small casino and the personal attention you get from the staff! Mark and Joey are awesome. read more

Dotty's has more to offer than just cheap drinks and rustic Italian decor. Dotty's has bartender Joey. The highlight of this eclectic hidden gem was bartender Joey who served us 4 shots of middle shelf liquor and 4 beers for the small price of $28. He made our night both Friday and Saturday. I met the girl of my dreams next door immediately after going to Dotty's. I couldn't have done it without the liquid courage and youthful exuberance that Joey distilled in me via Teremana shots that were delivered with a steady hand, and in plastic shot glasses. When I marry the girl I met at Aleworx, later that night, I will ask Joey to be the bartender at the wedding and possibly... best man read more

Okay so listen I have lived in Vegas for 12 years I've probably been a member of Dotty's for at least eight of those 12 years Daddy's was great but in this past year it seems like Daddy's is just trying to get all their money back I talked to other patrons that I see on a regular basis and we know each other by first name and we all feel the same way you're not going to win at Dotty's there may be a two or few that may win but regular local customers don't even bother it will just suck your money up Daddy's used to be great but as of lately it's terrible there was a point where at the end of the year they would give you vouchers with an accumulation of the money you spent all year this year nothing I used to get $100 for Christmas they gave me $50 and a voucher for a Dotty's mug I am legit a regular customer at Dotty's and I'm just being honest I feel mistreated please don't even bother to play a Dotty's they're going to steal your money it's the waste of your time. read more

Especially for a few drinks they sell bottles to of everything super cheap I couldn't believe how cheap they sold liquor for nice to pick up a few. For your hotel stay read more

Terrible service Bought alcohol didn't check ID But then got cigarettes checked my ID? Not worth going here just go have a drink in a casin read more

The shots and tots at dots are the best! Joey is a class act rockstar. Curl up in the cozy chairs by the rustic faux fireplace and enjoy the old fashioned country decor that consists of roosters, frogs and turtles. The drinks are very affordable! And the cheapest cigarettes in Tahoe. We enjoyed the patriotic decor with Stars and Stripes and the drought resistant greenery. We also enjoyed the free matches. I wish I could have my wedding reception there! We returned to Dotty's and love this new summer theme. We warmed up near the faux fireplace. I am looking forward to the walk your plant day on the 27th! I have my plant ready! We were disappointed because the tater tots have been discontinued. Joey is a genius. Despite the fact they ran out of Tito's vodka Joey supplemented it with Grey Goose! Great for large parties! Their social event calendar is amazing and interactive! Super inclusive place where all ages feel welcomed! If you are looking for a unique SLT intimate environment, Dotty's Casino is for you! And the lucky beaver is next door another must-go! #YOLO read more

This place has disappointed more than once! Your employees Are plane out not ok! I'm so over this place because of these 2 workers. I've tried a couple times and I just can't anymore they are rude and don't know the Nevada law! So if they want to preach the law maybe you should send your staff to school! Good luck making your tips girls! You both should apply at a dennys!!! read more

THIS PLACE SUCKS! zero service and very poor attitudes, I have spent thousands here and yet I am rudely treated. There are favorites at the store in Hellena Montana who are treated very well. Drinks brought to their table, friendly hello's and the cashier is immediate when there is a ticket to be cashed but me forget it, you going to wait BOY! I had to beg, for a drink, and to have my ticket cashed and then the cashier rudely walks away and acts like she had something else to do. Then I was completely ignored with another ticket while the cashier had to carry on a 1/2 hour conversation. Then ignored again while she was playing a video game once again I had to wai another 30 mins to get my ticket cashed, and then I was given dirty nasty looks..what a HELL hole. I believe there is systematic discriminations that occur here. don't go there if you are different in anyway you will be treated like crap read more

Worst customer service. Never going back. The staff is not very nice or helpful. For a stand alone Casio I thought they would welcome the business. Seems like they really don't care if you come in or not. read more

Looking for cheap drinks? This is the spot. I payed $12 for two shots of Hennessy and two mix drinks. Cons are Casino is small bar is as well and the cigarette smell is so strong. it has a old vibe to it it's definitely not where the younger crowd come hangout but since the drinks are cheap how can you not stop by. also they do have a cute little fireplace you can sit by and drink your drinks! sometimes it's cash only. read more

super super rude employees was told I will get the cigarettes the guy decides I get not what I pick and another decided he was going to overcharge me thinking I did not know the price and asking for a comped drink they act like I murdered their dog or mom never been offered a drink while gambling always have to go ask and if I don't tip which I 99 percent of the time do they have the same demeanor and talk aloud about their lack of tips there is like 15/20 machines in there they act like they work at the best casino in the world and they deserve 100$ tips from everyone for any transaction management needs to clean house with these entitled spoiled rotten people and find humble grateful people I have never come across such a rude bunch of employees literally all of them are lowlifes and all need to be in the plumbing industry read more
