st. jo frontier casino

We did a last minute stop on our way home from KC. The staff was sweet and as friendly as can be. Things were cleaner than we expected. Honestly, we didn't think we'd enjoy it much and while we were surprised by the newer machines and the variety here, the payouts were pretty seldom. My husband played for quite a while and never once hit a bonus. I had luck on getting to the bonuses but they didn't really pay out much. We had a lot better results playing in KC and even at the smaller casino's on HWY 75. We'll stick to that route and avoid this casino in the future. Most casino's give $25 to starting players and this one started us with $5. I doubt there will be many comps in the future despite the large amount of money we spent here. One note though- we were both shocked with the fact that the ATM has a smaller service charge than any casino atm we've ever been too- that was the best deal we had on any machine.

We were there when the buffet had steak night the food was very very good, enjoyed the penny slots as well, nice place

Not too much to say. I am not very impressed. Its worth it to go to Kansas City to a bigger and cleaner casino.

Driving by, all of the sparkling lights get your attention! It was very neat to look at. It was rather small once you got inside. The slots did not pay out at all. Seemed they just kept taking all your money. The drinks were ridiculously watered down and were very costly, not free like inside the casinos around here. Will never return to this casino. Net time we will go over to the Kansas side!

I am not a big gambler; however, my wife enjoys going to casinos on occasion. I have been to casinos everywhere in Nevada, as well as quite a few on reservations. This casino, although very attractive to look at from the "riverboat" aspect of it, is not a place to go unless you have more money than sense. These are the tightest slots either of us have ever seen, not even giving you small returns to make you want to keep playing. We went in the late evening, and could nearly count on our hands the amount of people playing in the casino. Of the few people there, none of them seemed to be winning anything, even the smallest amount. The other problem, although the casino has no control over it, is the fact that there is a charge for drink service. People from other states, like us, do not expect to pay for drinks at casinos; this is suppose to be one of the things to keep people at the machines to spend more money... But the drinks were cheap enough, so we didn't really care... until we took a drink... there was no alcohol in either of our drinks, they both tasted like straight fruit juice! So without anything to make us want to spend any more of our vacation money here, we ran for the door and agreed to never return to this casino!
