A friend had some saved from a visit or two, and a birthday bonus, and it was credited towards her restaurant tab and paid the entire bill for one person. Use the players card and you get bonus points which do add up. Dealers were pleasant and had a good sense of humor and personality. $10.00 (blackjack) early around 8pm, then around 10pm moved to $15.00 tables. Service was pleasant and for the occasion and time of night, was actually pretty good. Cashew Chicken, generally my go to dish, with vegetables and tofu, (not a tofu lover), was again, one of the best flavored dishes of cashew chicken I've had. Hot vegetable spring rolls were some of the best I've had. At the time we were seated 9:15pm, they were out of duck, and beef from the special menu. $40/person, $80/two person with a bottle of house wine. There was a special New Year's Eve 5-course menu available. The regular menu at Ruyi had enough to sample from. Though there is an Italian restaurant there as well that I would try too.

There were a few restaurants available throughout the casino. A clear indication that there are not or were not enough air blowers going or circulation happening. Needless to say that was incredibly unpleasant and for me, an evening headache. When we entered the doors to the casino from the garage, I was hit with an incredible wave of cigarette smoke. No signs, no attendants on duty, hit or miss on parking spots. Closer parking required circling around the structure and hunting for the entrance and level. When first arriving the signs for parking were confusing and initially thought that the main parking was in an underground garage, which was some walk from the Casino location itself. We had not made reservations for any promotion nor for an overnight stay. For the special occasion we thought it would be worth it.

Travel from Grayslake, IL was a bit of a drive to Milwaukee, WI.
