The service is so SLOW there that we had to eat at the steak house most of the time we were there (be sure to make reservations on the weekends).

There's no alcohol allowed in the casino, has steak house and another restaurant at the 2nd floor, where you bet on horses while you eat and drink. I saw 3 help your self soda and coffee stations, one always down other two ice seems to be out most of the time. It has only one Cash Cage for the entire casino floor. The ticket changing to cash machines seems doesn't work most of the time. They claim they've got 750 machines, and it seems 3%- 5% of the machines are down usually.

The machines are regular casino machines not like the ones at the KICKAPOO casino in Eagle Pass,Tx although these machines here at the ZIA seems much older machines, like used or second hand machines. Never a top JACK POT for that machines, although we did see one couple did hit a top JACK POT for $10,000 this weekend (Labor Day weekend). Even at the high rollers, people that are playing $5 and $10 machines usually only hit UNDER $2000 it seems. It's enough to play with their money for a while, and it seems when it does hit big it seems usually UNDER $2000, mostly $1600 to $1800, just enough to play all back while you're there for the weekend after you pay tax on them. It seems to hit ok, but not a very big hits around $200 to $300 range mostly, not just us but every one it seems. We've been here twice (2 full weekends) now here at the casino.
