Upon our arrival, there was plenty of parking both in front of the casino, and in an adjoined parking garage. The exterior of the casino was clean and appeared quite safe. This was an easy casino to access both from downtown Carson City and it was easy to get back on the main highway. While all of the Reno/Carson City casinos seemed pretty similar to me, I appreciated this one due to the non-smoking area. During my four days in the area, I experienced many casinos, and I couldn't get away from the smoke smell in most of them. In this casino, there is a well-ventilated non-smoking area just to the right side of the front door. I popped in there and would have felt comfortable for a good period of time without being bothered by smoke. For those who enjoy gambling and may be affected by smoke, I highly recommend that you visit Fandango and see if you enjoy the experience as much as I did.

My CA buddy does not come to Carson city often and wanted to see what your casinos looked like. I warned him that this is a very old established local casino and to not have high expectations. I did share all the cool cars and motorcycles, and see pictures. Well, after 5 minutes, he could NOT handle the smoke and he left; lol. Small parking lot across the street and plenty of two hour street parking. Not much more to say. See pictures. Atmosphere - Three dining choices - Angelina's, Capital City Grille, Alatte Coffee, Wine & Deli. Events - See website. Entertainment available - See website. Service - N/A.

I am writing to formally express my deep disappointment and frustration regarding the customer…read moreservice during our recent visits to your Carson City location. On our first visit, my wife and I were playing slot games together and were denied service for an additional beer simply because we were both actively playing at the same machine. During a subsequent visit, my wife was told that her two-strap purse was a backpack and was required to remove it, despite it being an everyday handbag. The staff were dismissive and rude when we pointed this out. We felt that your staff made negative assumptions about us based on the casino's location, treating us as if we were unwelcome instead of valued guests. I hope management will address these concerns with their staff to ensure fair and respectful treatment for all patrons.

This review is for the restaurant inside Bodine's Casino…read more The last time I came here to Bodine's restaurant was last time Thanksgiving. Now, I'm here with my crew as we need us some food and while we're staying in Minden, I just couldn't think of anywhere I thought was any good that would keep the crew happy. Some of the guys on my crew wanted to try their luck in the casino, so it just me and the one other girl on the crew for dinner and depends on if the guys win any money they'll eat later on their own. We'll see if they're lucky! The dining room still looks just the same with nice booths along the big windows. We parked the big Suburban in the underground parking lot to keep it cool with this warm weather we have here. Lots of parking underground. I wasn't super hungry, might have something to do with all those Doritos I ate on the road and at the hotel. But I did see these loaded potato skins appetizers for $8.99. You get five loaded skins with cheese onions and bacon. Bacon always sounds good. My friend ordered a small Margarita pizza, with cheese tomatoes and basil. The guys would have ordered the meat lovers pizza if they were here. The pizza was ordered crispy on the crust please. The food came out at the same time and my loaded potato skins looked tasty. I used the Parmesan cheese for the pizza on my potatoes. Yummers! Wow, these are some real nice skins! I can taste the bacon and cheese and onions all together. I'd really get this again! The Margarita pizza was beautifully cooked and the toppings were all evenly spaced. I took a bite and it was good. My friend was going on about this was one of the best pizzas she ever had. I'd guess I'd want more meat on mine! Now we'll see if the guys have any money left or if they won some! I'm gad we came here.

Back bar by the steak house doesn't allow this I think main bar should be same rule with smoking around where food is being served . 9/10 for sure at this place

Only negatives were housekeeping knocked twice to clean our room on our check-out day, and gave a lil sass when we weren't ready.

I will definitely come back though, it had everything I needed! And the slots treated me well :))

This review is based on my one hour visit here…read more I went here to check out the casino as I was in the area and sometimes small/medium sized casinos might be better than the large ones in Reno. Plus wanted to see the perks for signing up to be a member. Pretty much you have to play 100 points to get 10 dollars of free play. I believe it is a dollar per point. They have a pretty good selection of slots for this size. If you are into Lightning link, Dragon Link, Buffalo, IGT wheel of fortune it is pretty good. I mean you can spend time here playing for sure. Now was okay the play experience. I only played the Lightning Link, Boost and Rhino Rampage within that hour. I was getting the bonuses and I got 196 free games off of the Boost, but only get $9.16. Lightning Link I got the bonus, but it was only for $52 dollars off of a $2.50 bet. Rhino Rampage was a disappointment, I got the bonus, but only got $2 and not even my money back from my bet. So I only spent an hour there because the bonuses were not that great to be honest. Would I come back here again, no, but it was worth the experience though.
