Casino Pauma - San Diego County

Great machines. Needs to have more tables open. Went there just for 3 card, only to be told they are not opening it that day.

I have more winning experiences there im more likely to leave there with money.

On a subsequent visit on a Thursday, I had the prime rib dinner deal for two at $20. While you can't take it to go, you can dine in and enjoy one meal there, then pack the second one to take home. Pauma Casino has a charming, hometown atmosphere that I appreciated. I had some great luck while playing; I won $200 on a $10 bet on the Colossal slot machine, and then I hit a fantastic $800 win on the same machine! Although it’s a bit of a drive, I believe it’s definitely worth it. I left feeling happy and looking forward to my next visit, where I’ll receive $120 in free play, and on September 17th, I’ll get another $120 in free play for signing up. I will certainly be returning!

The restaurant is small but charming. However, it was quite crowded with smokers, so I'd recommend bringing a mask. The seafood buffet was enjoyable, and there was a good variety of food and desserts. Unfortunately, I didn't have any standout experiences this time around.

Casino Pauma has been my favorite spot for 20 years. Omar has served me at the Red Parrot bar during my recent visits, and he's both friendly and efficient. It's a fantastic place—relaxed yet lively.
