You want to do some gambling, hit the slots why listening to some good music then here is where you want to be. A diverse crowd enjoying themselves with a food court feet away, a bit pricey, if one wants to feed their stomach. The staff is cordial and the ambiance is glowing, but make sure you stick to that limit of cash you want to loose or you'll be heading home in a sad state.

Love taking my mom here. She adores the place. I do not gamble, so I sit around waiting for my mom to finish playing. The atmosphere is pleasant. I like when they have live bands, I can go over and pass the time away. The machines seem current and up to date. I guess! Lol.

Three stars only because I was in line for over an hour because they had no one there to do Lotto claims and then they switched cage cashiers twice, once they did get someone over to the booth. The cage cashiers were extremely friendly. Except one who told a customer to go somewhere else to play his lotto because he felt it was taking long, which ensued in an argument berween them both. The police didn't come over to calm the situation and they were standing right there. Empire is still a nice place.

This is where you come if you just have a feeling you might win some money. They don't have any tables only slots. They have roulette and black jack, but it's all electronic. Which in my opinion sucks. If you don't mind that then definitely check the place out. Top make matters worse the alcohol isn't free when you're gambling. I was shocked. Someone told me there was a magical place near the back where they served for free while you're gambling. But I never found that unicorn.

Empire City Casino is probably one of the most underrated casinos but, I was very impressed on my last visit. They are undergoing an expansion and upgrade that will make them very impressive and the place to be when you want to try your luck on the slots or gaming tables. Empire City Casino has become one of my favorites.

Enjoying my visit at Empire City Casino. Visiting here on a girls weekend. Feels just like I'm at Atlantic City once inside, just without the ocean and all the other casino's along the boardwalk. I did something I haven't done in Atlantic City which was sitting and watching a live band perform and watching the people dance and having a good time. They had server's bringing you drink's, but I don't know, if they were comp drinks.

I honestly go there to just give them my hard earned money and walk out with nothing. Sometimes I spend 300 waiting for a bonus on various games and it never happens and then if it does, I might get 20 dollars back..it's never a big bonus. I saw one lady won 1500 last night on quickhits on a regular spin..but gave back like 100 after trying to get a bonus and nothing. Another one got 48 free spins, 50 cents bet and ended up with 20 dollars..48 spins!!!! It's only because it's close and I am bored that I go there.

I bring my Aunt and Godmother here as a pass time for them. But I too enjoy a little gambling. Though you have to pay tolls. It’s a safe environment, spacious, much to eat, restaurant upstairs, gambling tables and slot machines also the horses run( track). Many concerts and events. In door stage, live music . A lot to do.

Empire City Casino has many different things other than gambling on a wide variety of machines. They have good restaurants with exquisite varieties of dishes. The music is for all sorts of people. On Sunday and Tuesday is Salsa night.
