Let’s dive in!Īrguably the best dim sum place in San Diego, Emerald Chinese Cuisine has lent its name and recipes to the new casino, and hopefully the chefs there do their dishes justice.
Well, HCJ didn’t stray from this standard at all, and for good measure, they threw in a Mexican food joint they know San Diego.
Most casinos follow a de facto formula in their dining options: a steakhouse, a buffet, a sports bar and/or pub, a Chinese restaurant, and a family-friendly option, hopefully with one of those being a late-night stop. To the dismay of many local residents, but the joy of the Jamul Indian Village, the 20-year, $400 million project has finally come to fruition. This 200,000 square-foot establishment features over 1,700 slot machines, 40 live table games, seven restaurants, and even some nightlife options (Jive Lounge and Loft 94). After much contention and controversy, Hollywood Casino Jamul had its grand opening on Monday, October 10, 2016.
