The casino has over 2,000 slot machines,[1] up to 86 table games, three restaurants, a deli, bingo, an off-track betting facility, a lounge, the largest outdoor ice rink in Southern California,[2] concert venues and multiple indoor and outdoor meeting spaces.

[3] In 1932, the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians purchased the reservation with their share of proceeds from a forced eviction from the area now containing El Capitan Reservoir.

[7] In 2007, the Viejas tribe announced an $800 million expansion project including a second casino, hotel, and parking garage.

[10][11] The new luxury hotel tower is for adults only (21+) and has 159 suites, a spa, fitness center, upscale dining options,[12] and an expanded gaming area.

[18] In February 2013 a Tribal Environmental Impact Report was filed for construction of a 6-story parking structure with capacity for up to 1,000 vehicles to be built on the north side of the casino.

The extended casino floor allowed for the addition of another 1,000 slot machines, while the new hotel tower increased accommodations.

This expansion created an additional 50,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor multifunction resort space, and increased hotel accommodations to a total of 237 rooms and suites.

It is open to guests age 21 and older and has 159 suites, a saltwater pool, two new restaurants, outdoor dining and a day spa and salon.
