Does Hawaiian Gardens Casino Have Roulette
All the casinos in Los Angeles (other than Indian casinos) are player vs. player style games. That means no slots, roulette, craps and the like. Mostly, it’s Asian games (Super Pan 9, Pai Gow) and “California Games” (No Bust BlackJack, 21st Century Baccarat) and all types of poker games.
Most of the casinos have a “Corporation” which basically has unlimited money to cover the table for the Asian and California games. This means that when the “Corporation” is the bank, money will always cover your bet. That’s good if you win, and obviously, bad if you lose.

Bicycle Club
The Bicycle Club, often called the “Bike” is not the biggest but possibly the friendliest. If you play the higher limit poker tables, all food is free. Nice. They also keep expanding the poker area. Like Commerce, they have some big tournaments during the year and as of 2016, they have a hotel.

Caribe Casino[Closed since 2009?]
The smallest casino in Los Angeles by far. This place is smaller than a regular sized restaurant. There used to be some action when Craig was the manager but it seems to be dead these days.

Commerce
They claim to be the largest poker casino in the world. I’m not sure if that’s true but it certainly is the largest in LA. It takes a long time to get table-side food so be patient. They also have a hotel there in case you get tired, and they have the biggest poker tournaments in LA during the year (LAPC). You can also have your home game here by making reservations for your own table. If you want poker action 24/7, at almost any level, come here.

Hollywood Park Casino
Hollywood Park no longer has horse racing but they are getting ready to open a brand new casino in 2016. This place gets pretty good action but I don’t really like the area, especially at night. But because of it’s location near the west side, you’ll see celebrities playing here sometimes. Recently, there are very few tournaments going on here other than their weekly ones.

Hustler Casino
Being the new kid on the block, this place has really grown nicely. Not as much action as the big ones but they have good food, including sushi. If you play at the $300-$1000 (or higher) no limit tables, the food is free (except for sushi). On the weekends, sometimes you’ll see a big game with Larry Flynt and the big boys of poker. I’ve seen Phil Ivy, Barry Greenstein, Johnny Chan, Ted Forest, Doyle Brunson, and Chip Reese (RIP) playing there.

There is no shortage of card rooms in California, and especially not in the Los Angeles area. Whether you are looking for big games, small games, or something in between, you will find it in Los Angeles. Hawaiian Gardens Casino, now known as The Gardens Casino, is one of the top rooms in this major metropolitan area. While it used to actually be hosted inside of an actual tent, the room now boasts a luxurious interior with a never ending sea of brand new, high class tables. Among the competition in the Los Angeles poker scene, or anywhere else in the country for that matter, The Gardens Poker Room is right at the top.
Does Hawaiian Gardens Casino Have Roulette Casino
As is the case with all of the casinos in the Los Angeles region, you will not find any machines or other similar games in this casino. The only non poker, table games that run are along the lines of blackjack, baccarat, and pai gow poker. World Casino Index does not encourage playing these games as you will be subjected to substantial fees simply to play the game. We do not blame The Gardens for this, however, as it is California gaming laws that make this situation as messy and unfortunate as it is.
The Gardens has a geographical advantage, or disadvantage, when compared to the rest of the “local” poker room competition, depending on how you look at it. This casino is located much further south than its main competitors, like Commerce or The Bike. Given the nature of commute and incredibly heavy traffic around Los Angeles at virtually every hour of the day, unless you are more towards the southern LA area, you are going to have a difficult time reaching The Gardens without hitting heavy traffic (unless you are driving in the dead of night). If you are closer to the Anaheim area, however, The Gardens will be the perfect place to play.
Casino at The Gardens
The casino at The Gardens is very, very large. Upon walking through the tall, security guarded doors, you will find a virtually unending stream of tables. In addition to this, the room has gone out of its way to ensure that there is an extremely large number of TVs spread throughout the gaming floor. You will be hard pressed to be in any section of the room where you won’t also be able to locate a TV.
The room is new, and as such, the tables themselves are very modern as well. The poker tables include USB charging outlets which make it convenient for players to keep their phones powered even while playing and inevitably draining their battery. Beyond this, the front desks of each section also have a power charging station where you can drop off your phone for free, receive a ticket, and then pick up the phone later while it charges at the desk. This is a very convenient feature that a surprising number of poker rooms still do not offer.
Poker Room at The Gardens
The rake for poker games at The Gardens casino is actually better than most other places in the area. The base rates themselves are about the same, but they do not rake additional money for seeing the turn card in poker, while other poker rooms do. Needless to say, if you are putting in a lot of volume, $1 saved over and over again will really begin to add up in the long run.
In terms of game types and limits, you will find all of the standard LA staples, including Texas Hold’em and Omaha, with a bit of Stud games mixed in as well, generally at lower limits. Both limit and no limit games run. There is a main outer floor, and then there is what the casino calls a “VIP” area where the higher limit games run. In here you will generally find a combination of 5/5 and 5/10+ games. 5/10 is usually the highest stake game running, but there are often times larger games going as well, and these too will be found in the VIP room. All of the lower limit games will be located on the outside main floor.
The biggest detractor from The Gardens operation is found in its comps and player program. Instead of using the Bravo system like most major rooms do now, they have their own system. This means that you cannot see what games and limits are running without calling, and it also means that they are forced to implement an archaic method of tracking hours played. While playing at a table, poker players must keep their players cards out. Every hour, an employee walks around the whole room and scans these cards, one by one, to track your play and credit comps. While the comp rates are very competitive, the system used is very outdated and leaves room for improvement.
Poker Tournaments at The Gardens
Does Hawaiian Gardens Casino Have Roulette Games
The Gardens is not known as a tournament poke room. Its proximity away from other competing rooms is likely a big factor in this. With that said, they do run a few different daily tournaments with buy ins under $100, as well as a few special events throughout the year. If you are primarily a tournament player, this is likely not the best poker room for you. We do encourage you to check out their current schedule to see if any large series or events are running.
Dining and Bars at The Gardens
The Gardens does have a comprehensive food menu available. Players can order from this menu tableside and have their food brought right to the game. Comps and/or cash can be used to pay for any food or drinks ordered from the menu. Alcoholic drinks are also available, but due to California rules, all of these items are charged and comps cannot be used to pay for them.
Hotel(s) at The Gardens
Unfortunately there is not currently an on site hotel at The Gardens Casino. We are unfamiliar with any plans to add a hotel in the near future. Given that this casino only recently upgraded from a tent to an actual, impressive building, it is likely that a hotel addition would not be in the near term plans. Note that the area is very highly populated and very active, so you will be able to choose from any number of hotels in the area. For reference, as it used to actually be called, the casino is located in the city of Hawaiian Gardens, California.
