The short version

What visitors say about Dragon Tiger Casino

Dragon Tiger, which longtime players still remember as Johnny Z's, is a small casino on two floors on Lawrence Street, and its best known feature is the Noodle Co. counter. You build a ramen bowl with your choice of broth and protein, gluten free noodles included, and reviewers who stopped only for the noodles left happy. New players club members have been offered a free bowl.

The gambling gets middling reviews. There are table games, but critics say there aren't always enough dealers to keep them open, and the slot selection is limited. Some players like the cozy feel and the small wins; others say the place lost its personality after the change from Johnny Z's. Staff can be hard to find when you need help, and one visitor was left in tears by a cage worker during a shift change until a coworker stepped in.

    I was in earlier this afternoon with my mother. We had a really fun time playing slots right as you come in the door. We stayed 3 or 4 hours, we were enjoying ourselves a lot. Staff was nice and checked a couple of times to see if we wanted drinks, but we don't drink, but it was very nice of them to come and check…

    New Noodle Restaurant in the Dragon Tiger Casino in Central City Colorado. Great tasting noodle bowls with various protein choices. I tried the noodles with chicken and broth - it was delicious. The art work on the walls looks great. The place is clean and the service is attentive.

    Lost $6 playing slots but won 2 days of food with getting the noodle bowl! The gluten free option for a noodle bowl was incredibly good. Lots of fresh food options. Very well done. Incredible service! Would absolutely come back the next time I’m in the area.

    Didn't spend much time gambling here, but the Noodle Co was solid for food. Definitely worth the stop and I will be back.
