In 1980, Russ Miller decided to move the Normandie Casino to a lucrative location near the 110 Harbor Freeway at 1045 West Rosecrans Avenue.
A few years later, Seven-card stud and Texas hold-em were added to the already existing lineup of games, Five-card draw and Lowball.
The Normandie completely revamped its restaurant to accommodate a variety of Asian tastes: Mandarin, Vietnamese, Thai, and Korean, along with a standard Continental menu.
The Normandie Casino opened its famous Red Dragon Room which featured high-limit Asian games.
In 2016, several members of the Miller family had their gaming licenses revoked for anti-money laundering violations, and they were given 120 days to sell the casino.
