Last Saturday evening my husband suggested that we go out for a meal, and we decided to book at the restaurant in the Gala Casino (formerly Ladbrookes) in Nottingham. To book you have to be a member of the casino which we are. To become a member you have to take along one form of ID, which can be a passport, drivres licence, etc. to reception, at least 24 hours before you wish to visit the casino.
A good start to the evening was that we found the Casino car park, located just round the corner from the entrance to Mount Street car park. We then took the lift down to reception,where we had to pay only 1 pound for a token which would let us out of the car park later.
We were given menus to look at in the Bar, and ordered here too. The range of food is good, with the usual steak or more exotic options. None of which I can remember now! I started with a plate of melon and Parma ham with feta cheese crumbled over, and garnished with fresh raspberries and Strawberries. It was delicious. Then I followed it with Steak, cooked Bleu, which was cooked to perfection, and not just cold raw meat as you are so often served. Main meals come with a selection of veg, and potatoes, or you can have french fries if you want.
The wine list is not that long, but has some good wines. the house wine is around 12 pounds a bottle, and my husband assured me was quite nice.
The service was good too, and the place was very busy. It started off a very good evening. Although I am not sure my good luck was down to the food, I am sure it helped!

There is a casino in glasgow, (cannot remember the name), that I visited with a friend recently. I though the food was reasonably priced. I think my friend only joined for the bar and the food, not the gambling!Helen
