We came here for a change of scenery and to see what kind of slots they had. I'm surprised that we've never been here before. My husband was happy that they had some of his favorite slots. It wasn't difficult getting on most machines but there were some machines that the people on them were not leaving anytime soon. They have a Concessions area where we saw yummy looking pastries. They also have a variety of food items available and the pricing looked reasonable. We were a little hungry so we ordered a Cuban Toast which came out steaming hot! I think it was around 10 pm when we saw a server walking around with a tray full of 4 oz styrofoam cups. They were giving out complimentary chicken soup. I'm not sure if that's something that they do every night or it was a special day. We thought that was pretty cool. The staff that we encountered were all friendly. From the bartender to the Players Club representative and the servers. They have a Magic City Casino shuttle that you can take for only $5 and they'll give you $30 free play for doing that. The only downside to that would be that it takes 2 hours to get to the casino from Broward County and you're there for 4 hours. Depending on how you're doing, it could be very annoying, lol. read more

This was one of the most uncomfortable and disrespectful experiences I've ever had at a business. I went to the front desk to cash out my wife's voucher, and the employee, Angel Martinez, made the entire situation completely inappropriate. While "helping" me, he was staring me up and down, licking his lips, and then had the nerve to ask for my number all in front of my wife and daughter. It was humiliating, disturbing, and beyond unprofessional. I felt extremely uncomfortable and honestly violated by the way he behaved. No employee should ever act like that toward a customer, especially in front of their family. It created a very tense and upsetting situation for all of us. On top of that, when he processed the ticket voucher, the amount was incorrect. So not only was his behavior completely out of line, but he couldn't even do his job properly. This place seriously needs to reevaluate who they hire and how they train their staff. Customers should feel safe and respected not uncomfortable and disrespected. I will not be returning magic city after this experience at least the hard rock casino has way more decency! read more

Fun casino with a great outdoor arena. Magic City is great to host our pre-cruise party. Food trucks were available serving Empanadas (at a great price too) and two alcohol tents with another full bar located in the stands. The restrooms are spacious and clean (bonus in my book) and the entrance tunnel serves as a great location for selling merch. Not a bad seat in the house. Music can be heard well and the artists can be seen well. read more

Honestly, the best thing about this place is a select few of employees, Carlo being an absolute star. I came and had the Sunday buffet. Absolutely disgusting. The BEST thing about it was POTATO SALAD. That's it. Their meat was cold, anything baked was cold as well, or warm and disgustingly mushy. I'm glad they lowered their price (just this past week?? lol), but compared to casino buffets I've had before, this is* a dismal comparison. Glad they don't really do seafood here. Yikes. I've also sat at their 1952 cafe as well (just for dinner, not part of the buffet), and the staff/servers couldn't be bothered with anything. They stayed at the host stand and yakked and texted forever, without checking on me at all. I ordered the shrimp appetizer (seemed to be a microwaved item - not crispy), and the burger with fries. The fries were cold when it came out, the burger was smothered in mayo and ketchup for some reason (and I MEAN smothered), and not cooked to order. First and foremost:::: your kitchen staff needs better training or better pay, because their efforts are horribly lacking at this moment. I say this, having worked in restaurants. How things came out? We would have been embarrassed - cold, sloppy food would never have made it out the door. Why does it matter that the fries were cold??? There was ONE SINGLE PERSON besides me eating there at the time. Obviously, customer care is nowhere near the top of "restaurant" staff priorities. No, I didn't bother to complain. Why? Because no one was bothered about me in the first place. I get it's a casino, and I shouldn't expect much, but these two experiences were terrible and speak volumes. Good luck, folks. On the slots, and on what food you order. ‍ read more

We went to the Air Supply concert and had a great time. There are many bars to get drinks. I didn't see any food being sold. The restroom is inside the casino. It's very clean, big and modern.

Magic City Casino 450 NW 37th Ave., Miami, FL 33125 4 Stars In Miami, everyone is a Cuban irredentist. However, living in Miami is apparently acceptable to this passionate group. Second --and third-generation Cuban-Americans abound at Magic City Casino. For my second foray into the Casino Review Landscape, I began on the casino floor. The Casino is full of the newest class 3 slots, or "Las Vegas" style slot machines. While I did not notice a high-limit area, I could have missed one. They do not have any live table games in the casino, but they do have an abundance of video roulette and craps machines. Literally wall-to-wall, as one can see in the pictures. Making my way into the card room. I noticed that everyone was Speaking Spanish. Just be aware that the English-only law for poker rooms is not being enforced here. The dealers are all solid in their card-handling skills and fluent in English. They only comp water and coffee, so if you like to drink while you play, be prepared to pay for liquor. Not only do they have loads of table games in their Poker Room, but they also have tables for Texas Hold 'Em, Three Card Poker, High Card Flush, and 5-card Stud, as well as daily poker promotions. After my modest win at the last reviewed casino, I sat at a 1-2 no-limit Texas Hold 'Em table again. I had dinner reservations at 5 PM, so I had roughly two hours to ply my luck. Magic City Casino has an extremely generous Players Club with bountiful rewards. The rake per hand is consistent with non-Indian gaming. The Big Boy says, "The slots are loose and fun, and the poker room is live. I won $62.00 in two hours. Not a bad take for a fun time." read more

Magic City Casino - Worse casino - Casinos Near Me - Miami, Florida

The absolute worst casino in south Florida. They claim to have the best payouts and its nonsense. You will do nothing but lose in this casino. You might as well light your money on fire cause it will be the same experience as playing the machines. Trust me you will thank me later. Go to the Hard Rock if you want a fun night of entertainment and gambling. At Magic City you will not be able to speak to any of the staff if you do not speak Spanish, and you will spend your entire night listening to people yelling and banging on the machines as this is a regular and normal occurance at this Casino. The music is in Spanish only and there is no entertainment to enjoy. Payouts couldnt be worse. Horrible horrible place read more

This review is for the Jai- Alai at Magic City Casino. We were happy to catch the last game of the Spring season. Free admission and free parking is always nice! I've lived in South Florida over 25 years and had always seen signs for Jai Alai and now I know what it is. What a cool sport, and a cool little arena space they have. They got refreshments, bar, games area for families. Really cool vibe and fun to a Friday night date night. We are looking forward to the next season! read more

I'd give this casino a minus 0 if I could. They advertise as the casino that gives the most prices yet I haven't seen that happen. Also, they send you a brochure by mail offering you a free gift every week and every time you go there's never a gift available. If you're going to offer a "free gift" for thousands of people that go there, then order enough to have plenty for everybody. Then what they do is offer you a $15 credit so you can end up redeeming it and may even spend a $1000 out of your own money instead of $15 because you're there already. What a joke, in my opinion I do not recommend this place at all unless you want to give your money away. read more

We purchased tickets to see the Magic City Lights event on a Friday which was held during the Christmas season and also took the opportunity to explore the casino. The venue appears to be a melting pot of Hispanic individuals where people of all ages come together. You will find a lively area in the slot machine room where a DJ spins Latino music and people dance, socialize, or play. When hunger strikes make your way to 1952 Cafe, restaurant. The concept is simple but provides a diverse menu that caters to a variety of diners. While the food may not have Michelin-star expectations, it delivers great value for the money without compromising on quality. A friendly employee recommended trying the Lomo Saltado which we did and we were not disappointed. We also ordered a Caesar salad. read more

I have been coming to Magic City Casino for over 12 years and the new poker room looks amazing, Today I saw Yusimi which has been working there for over 7 years as a security . She has not change since day one. Her professionalism and awareness to details has gone unnoticed and I decided to make people aware of presence and is one of the assets that Magic City Casino has, To some people this is that she is just doing her job but to others she is beyond of what she was hire to.

I visited the poker room as I do once a month for some enjoinment Dec 20. As I was waiting for 1/2 poker seat I went and watched the other poker tables near the cashier. As I was watching in a table with 4 players I was stading 3ft away from table learning on how the game is played. I never spoke other than to say I didnt wanted to play, but the female player sitting to my left an older lady was upset that I had my hands crossed... it was cold there tonight. But that gave her the reason to request I be removed far away from the table I was not doing anything inappropiate nor I have said anything and I was being beey cordial. Few minutes passed and a lady there that was the floor manager told me that I cannot stand there and see the game, it wasnt allow due to the rules of the house. I asked her to show me the rules of the house to make sure I wasnt violating or doing anything wrong and she bluntly said that she didnt have any rule book that I can read. This to make sure I didnt do anything that can potentially be thrown out. She explicit told that if she said or made out any rule she has the final word and thats it I think its unreal what just happened , there wasnt anything posted nor a rule book I could read and follow. In disbelief I eneded up leaving your stablisment after the embarrassment of what had transpired. Bad customer service, horrible management read more

So I was recently in Vegas on the day they dropped the mask mandate and instantly the next day if you were fully vaccinated you did not have to wear a mask. Clearly the management doesn't believe the science or the federal or state government saying masks are no longer required. Secondly workers here don't speak English, at all. I speak Spanish but last I checked we were in the USA. When you ask a question in English, the staff here is rude. Their website advertises the fronton is open and Jai Alai is on Sat,Sun,Mon, and Tuesday. We even called to confirm. We were told the information was correct. A few days later we arrived and nobody seemed to know where the front on is. When we found it we were told that games were only viewable via television and only on Saturday. This place is a total joke and I will never return. read more

While the ambient and facilities are probably the best, and the food prices and services leave every body else behind , it's clean good fun. After spending over $1,000 at the slots.. my take home was $0. It's kind of far for me. Due to the low paying range it'll give 3 stars... won't be spending ever that much again in there. It's a good place.. but don't u go and spend more than a few bucks looking for a big pay out. It just doesn't happens read more

Visited casino on Sunday 6/8/25. Smoke free and excellent selection of machines. However service is subpar. Cocktail waitress rarely walk the floor. Played for over two hours without one cocktail server passing by, requiring I go to bar for service. After two hours only one cocktail server was walking the floor the others were huddled in the bar chatting. Had service button on for 3 hours without an attendant coming to assist. Loyalty members earn food credits , yet it takes 45 minutes after you finish playing (remove your card from the machine) before food credits are applied. No manager on duty despite it being 1 p.m. on a Sunday afternoon. No host or player development personnel available to assist. This has happened multiple times but the services is getting worse. Players club unable to assist simply state you have to wait we have no managers or administrative personnel on duty. Supposed to be smoke free casino yet guests constantly vaping and staff not addressing the issue and instead ignore and allow the guests to vape. Tried to reach out to administration but no response. read more

1952 Cafe was awesome. I didnt know it was here. There was alot to choose from salad bar, to shrimp, omelette station, ham n pork. Lots of meats, rice, chicken soup, and finally dessert.

What they lack in professionalism they make up for in low prices. Come if you're in a resilient mood.

Been to the poker room several times throughout the years. I like its uniqueness with the big windows with the view of the palm trees and Miami skylines. Poker is very good here, games are good and loose. Dealers are friendly and professional. The supervisor was friendly and opened a table for us waiting. They have bathrooms in the room so you don't have to walk half a block to wash your hands. Didn't hit a promotion but with them going every 30 minutes i expect i will soon. read more

I guess it's my fault for not knowing most casinos in Florida don't offer love dealers and tables games. This place promoted having Craps everywhere but when we got there it looked like Chuck E Cheese. I was misled to believe there was a craps table but they didn't even have a Craps machine! (if those even exist, I've never seen one) Annoying! But I played virtual blackjack and won $1,000+ so that's why I at least give this place 1 star. Lol Don't come here if you're looking for any live dealers or live table games. Total bummer! read more

Despite passing by it every day, it has only been in the last couple of months that I have gone to Magic City Casino. While I cannot comment on the casino portion of the place, I can comment on it as a host for shows. You see, I have attended Croquetapalooza and The Chonga Girls World Tour featuring Abuela there. Now before anything, I must say that one of the things this place has going for it is the vast amount of free parking. Yes, free parking! How often do you see this as these large venues? Not to mention that they are extremely organized and they have systems where you can buy tickets online. Eventbrite anyone? Score! The first time I attended a show there was back in August. It was Croquetapalooza and it was sold out. There easily must have been over 1,000 attendees, and yet, it was manageable to walk, if a bit difficult to find chairs. Still, the place was kept clean and the event ran smoothly. No one left home hungry, which is an impressive feat in itself given the amount of people who went. Anyway, the second show I went to was The Chonga Girls World Tour featuring Abuela. This show was much smaller than Croquetapalooza, but I think it surprised me much more because they had so much seating available. It also did not feel cramped at all, so needless to say, when they mentioned the show sold out I was shocked. Something to note if you attend a show. They have a VIP Lounge. Both times I have gone, it has been open, but I do not know if that is always the case. At any rate, once the show ends, you can always gamble or go downstairs to the Burger Beast Museum. The place is popping with options. No way to be bored there, that's for sure. read more

Nothing special about their slot floor. New and old games with some adjustable denoms. I didnt see anyone win anything that req a w2g, but the floor was busy. The poker room is also typical. 2/4 limit, and couple nl games running. Busy room. 520, their restaurant, was truly disappointing. Ordered a cheesesteak.. barely edible, lacking flavor. Took forever to come out the fries were barely lukewarm. I forgot the servers name, but he was just as absent as the flavor. It's obviously a place the local degens go to pass time. I'd probably come back only to see jai alai. Still have no clue what that's all about. read more

Magic city was one of the first casinos I ever played poker at. I've been there a few more times but realized there were better spots in Miami. The action here is great, and you will get some very loose play. The poker room its self is okay, nothing really incredible. The buy ins are standard 100 BB max. Expect a lot of spanish speaking between players and staff. I don't like playing here because it mostly feels like gambling instead of playing poker. People will call with anything at times. Chips will be splashed around, so if you don't mind being called down by 9-4 offsuit and taking some bad beats from unsuspecting hands, then this is a solid place for you. As for me, I can't stand that style of play, so I stay far away. read more

I guess because I am from a state that has 2 huge casinos, Magic City is like a hole in the wall. 1 level of slot machines. I was there to attend an event which was good but the casino itself is run down and old. Drinks were well priced and made very strong. I wouldn't go here again unless it Was for an event. I did eat at the concession stand. The potato ball and empanada was amazingly good! read more

Came here solely for a concert of Three Dog Night and Little River Band. The concerts are held in the back of where the Casino is located at the previously Flagler Dog Track. I believe voters changed dogs from running anymore they felt it was in humane. Beautiful spot for concerts and they have food trucks on the field for light bites. I had a soft pretzel it was not great. As for the refreshment offering it was more generic no name offerings so I stuck with Bud Light in a can at least I know what I am drinking. Depending on which stand you went to depending on what you paid sad commentary on poorly trained staff or perhaps the girl with no line charges $24. for a rot gut Gin & Tonic to anyone that dare ask her for a drink thus no line. Concert was great as it was a cool night out and you could see the Miami Downtown skyline in a distance. Acoustics not great but a nice evening out with hubby and that's all that matters. After the concert the valet and parking lot was backed up so rather than call Uber we went in the Casino. It was interesting to say the least as we are not gamblers so we listened to the band they had instead. Got drinks at a mere fraction of the price from outside at the concert and the labels on the bottles I could identify. We sat at a penny slot machine and played our luck or lack of for penny slots lol. Anyway great people watching not as glitzy a Casino as you would find Las Vegas or the Hard Rock. Would think twice before coming back here. read more

Came here with a friend and my daughter. My daughter didnt have her ID so she couldnt come on. Ugh The concert here was sold out parking was horrible. My daughter left in an uber when she hot home she realized she had the keys to the car. LOL needless to say I m not putting a dollar in a machine tonight. The band playing is a great but tonight you can not hear the vocalist. Sad because they are good. On the upside they also are great musicians. They need a bigger area to play with the crowd the attract. read more

They finally shut down the dog races and what an upgrade!! Today I was at the Luv me tenders event thanks to Yelp and it was perfect for an early Sunday evening suitable for everyone.

What a fun place on a Friday night! We only came because we saw their banner on a plane while we were laying on the beach! As soon as my friend and I came up the escalator, salsa music was blasting and we saw the cutest group of old people dancing the night away! The Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel slot machine was a great time! Every time we won, it played the hot stuff song. When you sign up with the casino, they give you a badge. You have to play 20 sessions then return to the service desk and they upload $20 on it.

This is the worst casino I have ever been to, and believe me I've been to many! They are extremely TIGHT and when you finally get a bonus it pays you little or nothing!

I don't gamble often. Every time I'm at Magic City Casino it's usually for a Burger Beast Event (can't wait for his museum to open). I'll be at Magic City Casino again for Croquetapalooza 2016 (I can't wait). The casino is very clean and staff are friendly. The casino has tons of free parking available which is great. Even on the busiest of night you somehow manage to find parking with ease. The bathrooms at Magic City Casino are clean. This casino is located in the heart of the City of Miami which I love. I think it might be the biggest casino after the Miccosukee Resort and Casino. You will feel safe at this casino. There's plenty of security and police on property. The City of Miami Police Department does a phenomenal job by always providing plenty of officers in and around the casino. read more

The casino is a lot smaller than I imagined. The thing that I loved,it is a smoke free casino. So as you walk in you are not hit in the nostrils the intense cigarette smell. We went for their seafood buffet and it wasn't anything out of this world. They barely had anything to choose from. The salmon was really good and so were their steamed vegetables.Where the slot machines were located they had an amazing salsa band performing, that I really liked. We tried out the dog races, I was extremely confused because I have never paid attention to it but many bets were constantly placed but so many ppl. Lastly their poker room was PACKED, you could tell intense concentration was going down. They have plenty of parking space. Offer complimentary pick up starting at 5pm, this is good for ppl visiting Miami. If you go to the players club Desk they give you gifts sometimes even money to start a game. Food trucks are there on the third Saturday of the month. read more
