The Big Easy Casino Review Jump to comments

The Big Easy Casino formerly Mardi Gras Casino and Hollywood Greyhound Track & Card Club, is a casino, poker and greyhound racing facility located at 831 North Federal Highway, in Hallandale Beach, Florida. Dogs first ran at the dirt track in 1934, three years after parimutuel betting was legalized in the state.. The venue was extensively remodeled and debuted with The Mardi Gras Casino over 1,000 slot machines, a poker room, simulcasting facilities, and the racetrack in 2006. The poker room was relocated to more lush surroundings and renamed The Big Easy in 2009.

In addition to betting, the newly renovated venue offers several restaurants, an entertainment venue and flea market, a gift shop and several bars.

The casino is open 9am to 3am weekdays and 24 hours on weekends.
