The casino is okay but the security micromanages everyone to the point of harassment. I had to use the restroom because I honestly was a litty constipated.

The short version
What visitors say about Baldini's Sports Casino and Restaurant
Baldini's is a longtime Sparks locals casino on Rock Boulevard, built around free play, food comps and prize drawings. A good number of regulars insist they win here more than anywhere else, and they describe a relaxed, friendly room. The diner sells a steak dinner for $10.99, though the meat can be tough and the sides basic, and one customer of decades was sorry to see the prime rib dropped.
Recent reviews describe a place that has slipped. Restaurant service is slow even when the room is empty, and anyone under 21 is now turned away from the restaurant, which has upset grandparents who used to bring the family. Security draws many complaints for being quick to confront or remove guests, and a few reviewers mention a rough crowd.

I always win at this place. Friendly staff. Everyone looked great and were very professional. Very clean. The restaurant is amazing. I got a table within minutes and the server was attentive, but not pushy
For $10.99, you get a steak dinner. The steak itself was a bit tough, and the mashed potatoes tasted like they were from a mix, not real potatoes. However, considering the incredibly low price, it's an acceptable meal if you're on a tight budget. You get what you pay for.
I win quite frequently there. It's a pretty laid back stress free environment. Also the food is awesome and affordable. Would recommend coming here with family to eat or gamble by yourself or a group of friends.
