The short version
The Marina Club is a neighborhood bar first, with a small card room attached, and the people who like it mostly talk about the bar. Regulars describe a cozy, somewhat worn mom and pop place with friendly bartenders, beer on tap and a kitchen known for wings with house ranch and burgers. On the card side, three card poker is the game people mention, and the dealers get good marks.
The detractors are blunt, and many are brief. The most common complaint is that the place is dirty, and one visitor found the parking lot littered and didn't feel safe walking to the car. A few others describe a chilly reception at the tables or long losing runs at blackjack.

I finally went out after a very long time to just enjoy myself here in Marina , a city that’s growing and full of so many different people.
Unfortunately my night ended with me feeling uncomfortable. The moment I sat down at the casino, I started receiving rude comments and…
I am so sorry you had this experience . I assure you that what you experienced is not tolerated !
It's a Bar & Casino. I just go to the bar to relax. It very small area and have limited seats but employees are super friendly. Their 805 on-tap (Firestone) is the Best. And then you have Ms. Stacy serving with her Spellbinding smile. It is small, old but cozy.
Hey you know for casinos in the bay area, I must say this one is pretty nice. The facilities are fairly new. They display the information about their games very clearly! They even have a very kind front desk employee who will help you with
Small card room but dealers were nice and fun. 2 players on 3 card poker hit a big jackpot..House paid 5,000 each person

No. Card rooms in California aren't allowed slots. You'll find poker and table games like baccarat and pai gow instead. For slots you need a tribal casino.
