| The new casino that was added on to Pechanga is awful. It is full of goofy slot machines that I call "cheap nickels". They are not even interesting. The new addition was empty the three times I went. The regular casino was packed and you couldn't get on a machine. I spent a lot of time walking around. I couldn't find a place to get any water or coffee that you didn't have to pay for. I lost money two of the three times I went and the only time I left with the money I had was when the computers went down for 3 hours and everyone was stuck there waiting for their tickets to cash out. My advice, go to Pala or the other small casinos in the area. | 2 |
| Very nice new poker room, 2 $25 tournaments daily. Free donuts and drinks on a cart at night for poker tournament players. Rooms are very good but cost $100 plus. Nice $3.25 draft beer in new casino bar like 20 oz plus. Good $2.50 extremely large slice of pizza (but the pizza flavor was off a bit) in new food court. Video slots seem tight. 6 for no full pay video poker (except a few job dollars). | 6 |
| This place sucks, I really didn't like it at all. I've been there twice and that was 2 times too many! The first time I went there, I was playing 25 cent slots with the rockets on the bar symbols that go up and down to help you get a winning combo...well, I got 3 bar symbols lined up and one of those damn rockets moved and turned my small winner into a loser!! I couldn't believe it, I've never seen anything like that before!! That was my first clue that this place is really greedy (more so than your average Indian casino). Also, they have too many CSMs and restrictive blackjack rules like no resplitting of aces. For just a little bit more of a drive from LA, I much prefer Pala which is head and shoulders above Pechanga. | 2 |
| Yesterday was the $50k guaranteed tourney. 333 players entered for $250 + | 6 |
| Worst Indian Casino ever built. The kind of people that enter the casino are dirty and rude, which agree well with their poor staff and service. Not only were the security and employees irritating, but I found them to be physically and verbally abusive. Long wait for a machine, over-crowded, and no parking. Not worth the drive. | 1 |
| I have to say that I was disappointed. I'd heard so much about Commerce, "the biggest, the best". Well, it might be the biggest, but I don't think the best. The place is huge with plenty of games from which to choose. Very little time waiting for a table and there appeared to be many amentities for food and beverage, (I didn't eat or drink except for a beer at the table.) That's where the good news ends. It looked like a lot of people wanted to be in charge but nobody was really minding the store. The dealers seemed to be more concerned with when they were going to get a break, and did not pay close enough attention to the game. Our table had two problems that would not have happened if the dealer was paying attention to the game instead of looking to see who was going to relieve them. The beverage service was weak at best. I waited for 20 minutes to try and order a beer. I finally gave up and got a coke. The facility is very impressive, but they could work on good old fashioned customer service. | 7 |
| Pechanga is a great place to go if you do not want to drive to Vegas.this is my home away from home. | 9 |
| I'm really surprised that some people find this wonderful Casino, not very good. At the contrary.. I really enjoy it and done not bad at all. I'm a frequent guest and I do enjoy it very much. Their Slot machines are great, including the nonsmoking area. This casino is very accessable closed to the freeway. Now, talking about the buffet... they need to work a little more on the sevice. Good thing for the huge Mall just about 2 exits. Several restaurants to enjoy. I ussally come out even, but I must say... it pays off to have fun at Pechanga ! | 9 |

| Pechanga is a very nice casino. LOTS of machines but not enough change people. The restaurants are wonderful. Close to freeway. The construction now is a pain but when it is finish it can certainly be compared to a Vegas casino. | 7 |
| The Pechange club required you to fill out a a form as well as drivers license. | 6 |
| Pechanga Casino is large! It is easy to get to from I15. There are signs along the way. Good points – I won $13 (started with $60, left with $73.05); Very nice rest rooms, It is nicely laid out. All most all were new machines. Staff was friendly. Problems:The construction is still going on. The traffic sites were set for the old configuration.Getting from your car to the casino is a hike. The coffee was not good. | 6 |
| Very nice Casino facility. If you are a non smoker forget it after 4PM Monday thu Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday. The air system will not handle the volume of smoke and the smokers love to blow smoke in your face. They even allow cigar smoking. There is a small non smoking gaming area but all the slots and card machines in there sucked. They have card tables in there too. There is a poker only area in the lower level that is non smoking only but I got the impression that it was for tournaments and hard core gamblers. | 4 |
| Pechanga's only nice thing was the free valet parking. The guys were very nice in and out. | 2 |
