Emerald Island Casino Henderson NV
Emerald Island is one of my favorite places to visit in Vegas. I've gone every time I've been in town. Oddly, I think Joker's Wild and Emerald Island are the only casinos in the Vegas area that I've visited on every trip.
I don't think this was meant as an insult.Quote: FleaStiffWelcome to this forum. Glad you enjoy this somewhat out of the way and a bit obscure "low roller" casino.
But, if you insist that it is, then it's insulting the casino and not the member that started this thread.

I also try to visit Jokers Wild on every visit, but never heard of Emerald Isle. Do they have table games or just slots?
FYI: I love Jokers Wild for their quarter craps game.

Emerald Isle is only slots & VP. Rainbow (also only slots) and El Dorado (tables) are less than a block away. The casinos are in downtown Henderson, just south of Lake Mead Parkway, just east WEST of Boulder Highway. It's a very cute, very walkable area. And, for whatever reason, it's the only place I've seen in Vegas where the patrons are universally happy.

It's a favorite of mine as well.
It's refreshing to see people that are able to enjoy life's simple pleasures:
a lit cigarette ... white socks ... and "buy 1 get 1 free" at the tattoo parlor.
How are the amenities at EI? One of the few casinos in LV I don't think I've ever been in.Quote: rdw4potusYeah, that was an awkwardly stated but sincere statement.

It's about 400 slots and a coffee shop. The setup is similar to the Rainbow next door, except the Rainbow has the Peppermill-style neon decor, and lacks a slot club. Eldorado is slightly more full-service, with a couple of table games and a seating area where the derelicts (relatively speaking) hang out -- it's either a sportsbook or keno lounge, I forget.
