L'auberge
Guys, me and the wife are doing a weekend get away and was curious on your thoughts of the place. How's the casino atmosphere, table mins., drinks, food, pool? Anything we need to do that you think would consider a must see while there as we just moved back to houston a few months ago and this will be our first trip.

I will be there in 2 weeks on a Bachelor party.
Table mins are $20 or $25, I cant remember. Pool is top notch. Yall should love it. -
Friday and Saturday they have a seafood buffet. All you can eat for around $30 a person. Nice atmosphere in the night club and the casino. They also have a nice swimming area with a lazy river.Comment

I have heard good things about the place but that's a little rich for my blood.Comment

Go to Golden Nugget while there...it's a short walk. Both places are good...but GN is a step up in my opinion.Comment

And yes on table minimums...find a bar w/ video poker and get drunk.Comment

We like it. Usually one or two blackjack tables with $15 minimumComment

Depends on the time you get there for the table mins...Originally posted by Gclyde12 View Post
I was there a couple weeks ago, saw between 10 and 25.. There was one roulette table that stayed at 15 all night, as well as a 2 hand bj table (BIL won 2K the first night here). The nugget was a little more expensive, played 50 dollar bj for a few hours there. Casino is nice, so is the hotel. Good luck!!Comment

I was there last weekend with my wife. We got a room for the weekend. Tables are 25min during the peak hours, non peak hours I saw some for 10/15 min. We enjoyed the stay. I talked to some of the dealers and found some hole in the wall place to eat at so we didnt have to stay on site the whole weekend.Comment

KD's Diner has pretty solid breakfast not too far down the road. Other than that, good luck. Too rich for my blood there. I spent most of my time at video poker at the inner bar. Quickest drinks and actually won more money there than anywhere else.Comment

Its great! That and the GN are the best in LC. The beach, lazy river, etc. Are awesome. Jack Daniels bar has good food and drinks. Make sure to sneak out and get some Cajun food!Comment

Last time I gambled black jack was min $15. That was on July 4 about 5 or 6 years ago. me and the wife will go over there and eat the buffet a couple times a year and its good, but the last year or so we started eating at the golden nugget. I like it just a little better.Comment

I would recommend the Golden Nugget instead if you've never been. That's the best place in LA. Any of them will be happy to take your money though

Fun place. Bring lots of money. Table minimums suck on peak hours of the weekend; especially Saturday night. Both casinos also get very crowded Saturday night.
What we typically do for a weekend trip is try and get there Friday mid-afternoon. The table minimums aren't too bad Friday evening and the casino isn't nearly as crowded as it will be Saturday evening. Gaming during the day on Saturday also is pretty good. It's not until about 6:00 p.m. that the $15 dollar tables will start to move to $25 and the crowd starts to get bad. We generally make a nice dinner reservation for 7:00 p.m. Saturday either at Embers (at L'auberge) or Vic & Anthony's (at GN). We also don't gamble much after dinner. It's just too darn crowded and very smokey. Maybe a slot machine or two, but the tables are just too crowded. We typically have the gambling fix taken care of from Friday night through most the day Saturday anyway.
Oh and there is a tram that goes between both resorts, so it's fun to tour the other place at some point. Walking is an option too. It's about 1/2 a mile from door to door.
Really fun place, but there's so much weekend demand from Houston area, which keeps the table minimums high. More affordable gaming can be found at Coushatta, but it's another 45 minutes down the road and not quite as nice.Comment
