Greektown Casino - Detroit, Michigan

Downtown Detroit has 3 excellent casinos. My favorite casino is Greektown casino located in Detroit's very own Greektown. The casino has free parking only one block away. Greektown is a fantastic spot to go for dinner and then spend time playing in the casino. Greektown Casino is also located near the home of the Detroit Lions in the new Ford Field. Just down the block from Ford Field is Comerica Park, the home of Detroit Tigers.

With its Mediterranean theme, and with design features like a grand staircase, statues, and murals of the Greek Isles, Greektown Casino gives a sense of openness and elegance. Located in a well known and lively area of Detroit, Greektown Casino blends into the this small ethnic restaurant and entertainment district of the City.

The existing old Trappers Alley with its three restaurants and other businesses has been incorporated into the physical structure of the Casino so that patrons can easily access these independently owned eateries without leaving the building. The Casino, itself has seven lounges, including Apollo, Sports Casino, Trapper's Bar, Opa Bar, Galleria Bar, Mousaka, and Ouzo's as well as one steak and seafood restaurant, Alley Grille. Three of the lounges have entertainment nightly. Step outside the casino and Greektown itself provides a variety of dining choices.

Greektown Casino has 2400 slots, ranging from penny to $500 machines. With 80+ tables available, games include Blackjack, Let It Ride, Roulette, Caribbean Stud, Craps, 3 Card Poker, Pai Gow, Baccarat and Mini-baccarat. The Poker Room is open 24/7 and hosts Texas Hold 'Em, Omaha, and Casino War. The high stakes Pantheon Club has its own slot and gaming areas as well as a separate entrance to the Casino. The basic Player's Card is called Club Greektown and with increased play patrons can move to the Torch Club and then VIP Pantheon .
