You then realize that there is no liquor in the casino! No bar either.not sure why, but was told it was a tribal thing. We ventured into the casino after dinner and it was very crowded. All the food was excellent and Andres was an excellent server. If you dont like smoke, hold your breath until you get to the restaurant. The restaurant is smack in the middle of the casino. We had to walk over to the Casino via an outside pathway(the indoor walkway was having work done). We had reservations at the Barona Steakhouse. After returning to the front desk, a different agent accommodated us and put us in a better smelling room with a view of the golf course. She put us in a room that smelled like smoke and had a view of the parking lot. Unfortunately, the front desk agent was very rude and did ended our illusion of 'impressed'. We parked and were given a ride by a nice valet in a golf cart. The driveway is impressive and you begin to think you just may be in for a good time. After a long fight with traffic and a few twisty roads, we finally arrived at the BVR.
