The casino also offers a reward program with its partners from ten downtown restaurants. There are four restuarants inside the casino including Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, Jack Binion's Steakhouse, Bobby Flay's Burger Palace and The Spread buffet.
The casino says that it will generate 100 million dollars annually in gaming tax revenue. The gross casino revenue tax rate set at 33 percent is one of the highest in the U.S for a resort casino with this level of investment.
It is estimated that the casino will attract 6 million visitors annually.
