    Small little casino in the middle of nowhere! Plenty of parking and RVs can overnight for free! One of few casino that doesn't open 24 hrs! Restaurant or counter is ok! Derive was good! Food decent! If you are in the area where very few food options! Give this place a try!

    Garcia River Casino is 5 years old, but it's well kept & still looks almost new. A Native American Casino, it features 150 gaming machines in a 9,000 sq. ft. space, + a Bar & Restaurant. The River Grill has a large menu & reasonable prices, so it's been a hit with the locals. There are not many restaurants in the area. Or much in the way of Entertainment, for that matter. There are few patrons most of the time, which has a negative effect on the vibe. Probably more employees than customers.

    Clam chowder. Soooooo good!!!

We loved our stay, we felt so relaxed and welcome here. Will definitely return, and I highly recommend this special place to anyone looking for a remote coastal getaway.

It was all very nice. Our server was really good until it was time to pay. I think either his shift ended or he was on a break. No problem though. Another server immediately assisted us once we asked. The food was all really good. During the trip I had a bagel with salmon twice. The one at GoodLife was substantially better than the other one. I never realized the same breakfast dish could be so different in quality. Everyone in our party enjoyed our breakfast and we actually tried to rework our schedule to have lunch there. Unfortunately, we weren't able to make that happen. If we ever get back to the area we will absolutely stop here.

Maybe we didn't order correctly -- we also didn't get any of the fresh bakery items, which looked really good. We had café items instead: one was a turkey sandwich, and the other was a breakfast sandwich. The breakfast sandwich seemed like an omelet inside two pieces of sourdough bread, and there wasn't much more to it -- I would have liked a bit more texture and flavor. The avocado in the turkey sandwich was too hard and hadn't been cut before being put into the sandwich. The lettuce didn't feel super fresh, and the turkey didn't stand out either. Great staff and such a lively place, though -- I think we may have just chosen incorrectly.

They closed the buffet, which is absolutely devastating and the café didn't have much to eat. In my opinion it was overpriced. We ordered some soup and fries and a salad. Next time I came, I ate in the actual big room and had a prime rib. It was delicious, but I ordered it medium and it was well. The potato with all the fixings was absolutely delicious and the vegetables were super fresh like out of the garden fresh and good they had all the sides and service was decent when I found out that they were out of prime rib after my order I was pretty forgiving and just happy I got it. When the check came, I was charged $51. The prime rib is $28 and I had about five bucks on my card. So I had to wait for a manager to get it fixed that was quite disappointing. Besides that the casino paid me pretty well and I even walked out with a brand new blender. I'm always a fan of the rock. They let me play for hours on not too much money.

    I'm rating my experience regarding the shuttle from Foster City to River Rock Casino on Saturday,…read more9/12/2026. There is a major safety concern. The shuttle bus that took more than 40 people did not have functioning air conditioning. The bus is full of older adults and this is a major risk for heat exhaustion and heat stroke. This should not happen. It was intolerable. This will also be reported to the health department. Then, the bus had to stop every other block down 19th Ave in SF because it would lose power and many times on the freeway, which placed us all at risk. This isn't the driver's fault, it's the company's fault. Never again will I place myself at risk with this irresponsibility.
