After being on the road for what seemed like forever, we found this place on trucker path and decided to stop in. I am glad we did. The building is a little older and not too many cars in the parking lot, but don't let that fool ya! We went inside, and several patrons were seated at the bar and a few people playing some slots. We went to the cafe area and was greeted almost instantly with menus and drink orders. Our waitress, who was also the bar tender, was on top of everything. She was friendly and very courteous. Placed our orders promptly and correctly, and in no time the food arrived. She came out on the casino floor to let us know our order was ready. I had a cheeseburger with a side salad, and my husband had grilled chicken, cheese fries, and soup of the day (chicken and wild rice) with garlic bread. The food was hot and delicious. It's probably better than any other food option around the area. I ordered a slice of key lime pie for the road, which my husband left, but once again, our amazing waitres made sure I didn't leave without it. We will definitely return when in the area.

This was a random stop after a long drive from northern Washington. We had traveled miles in search of warmth, food and most importantly fuel. It's no joke traveling thru this area, plan wisely. It was 917pm on a Tuesday, nothing else was open, not even the gas station convenience store. Say When casino sign lit up the street beckoning us. Initially we were told the kitchen was closed, I sadly walked to restroom, upon exiting my family stated they are offering to feed us. We sat and ate the best bowl of chicken soup EVER!!! We were so very grateful for that act of kindness (had not eaten since breakfast). Our long drive home (to Az) it's all we talked about, Say When Casino staff Thank you from our heart...... Paula & Eddie Fannin (Please can I have soup recipe)

This casino bar and grill deserves 5 stars just for their Friday Clam Chowder. But I give only 4 stars bcuz they only serve the chowder on Fridays! Bell peppers and other veggies give it a good zing. Only 3 dining tables unless you want to belly up to the bar for a burger and fries. They need to offer wifi.

The folks in the restaurant aim to please, and our waitress was very sweet. Delicious, inexpensive fare, and this eatery serves as the primary restaurant for the community. Nice, clean casino serves as the stopping off spot for truckers, travelers on the Oregon/Nevada border town.
