Morongo Casino introducing a cashless wagering system

January 14, 2021

Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa will be one of the first casinos to use Marker Trax, a cashless wagering system for slot machines. The system requires players to belong to the Morongo Rewards Players Club and qualify for funding similar to a line of credit. The funds are updated as a player inserts his card into gaming machines.

The Morongo mobile app will communicate with Marker Trax through the casino's computer system. Players can manage their accounts and also be able to apply for funding through the app.

The Marker Trax cashless system will be introduced and rolled out during this first quarter of 2021.

A wait list is available by cellphone.

In addition:

• Face masks must be worn by players and staff at all times. When a player leaves the game, that chair and table area is sanitized.

• Cards are replaced every hour with new, sanitized decks, and the chip racks are sanitized by chip runners throughout their shift.

• Food service is temporarily suspended in the poker room. Drinks are available in disposable cups.

• All poker tournaments are temporarily suspended.

Morongo's 65,000-sq-ft expansion passes halfway point

October 1, 2019

Last January Morongo Casino Resort and Spa broke ground for its massive casino expansion and renovation project. After nine months the project has passed its midpoint on the way to completion next summer.

New construction is adding 65,000 square feet which will increase the existing gaming floor by more than 30 percent. The new space will accomodate 800 more slot machines, more table games, and a new bar and lounge.

'We are completely renovating almost every millimeter of the existing casino floor in some way, from new carpet to elegant lighting and new ceiling and wall treatments,' says Simon Farmer, Executive Marketing Director at Morongo. 'We have put together an all-star team of incredible designers, contractors and craftsmen, and the results are going to spectacular.'

Curtains in the existing casino hide the total renovation work from Morongo guests. Restaurants on the first floor are being redesigned and upgraded one at a time. A 750-space vehicle parking garage with valet service is also under construction.

Morongo Casino opens 2 new restaurants

May 15, 2019

Morongo has made significant changes to its dining options. Two new restaurants were opened this month and three were closed to make new space for the future.

The new restaurants are the Good Times Cafe, a full-service gastropub, and Pink Coffee, an upscale coffeehouse. Both are opened 24 hours and located adjacent to each other.

The closed restaurants are the Natural 9 Noodle Company, Tacos & Tequila and Cafe Serrano. The Cafe Serrano will be replaced by a future Asian restaurant. Both the Pink Coffee and the Good Times Cafe are part of the current expansion and renovation project that increased the casino floor by 30% and reopened the old Casino Morongo.

Pink Coffee has a bright and energetic decor which feels like a Parisian street cafe. It offers a variety of coffee drinks and light European pastries. Jean-Marie Verhoeven, a Belgian pastry chef, helped develop the restaurant and train employees.

• Several restaurants will be replaced or renovated.
• Construction of 750-space parking structure.
• The current Morongo Bingo Hall will be modified to house 300 slot machines during construction.

More game tables will also be added. The dining venues at the entertainment venue will be renovated or replaced. There will also be a valet garage added.

Morongo History

Like all Indian casinos in California, Morongo is legal because of agreements between California’s state government and the local Indian tribes. These agreements allow Indian casinos to offer gambling even though its against California state law.

Morongo Resort originally opened in 1995 under the name Casino Morongo. At the time, it only included a dance hall, diner, and bowling alley. The casino was still under negotiation between tribal and state authorities.

Morongo Casino Poker Room Phone Number

The casino finally opened on December 10, 2004. Since then, Morongo has remained one of the largest tribal casinos in the entire country.

The casino, specifically, closed in 2014 only to reopen in 2018 as a separate building in order to expand its gaming space even further.

These days, you can still find the original bowling alley, a nightclub, and other entertainment venues on the original casino’s ground. However, the primary Morongo Resort building now houses most of the gaming activities and the main spa. The building includes the hotel as well.

Morongo Casino FAQ

Casitas are suites that feature private living spaces, pool access, and other luxury amenities. They’re all located on an upper level that surrounds the main pool.

The legal gambling age in California is 18-years-old, but Indian casinos may set their own age limits. Morongo is one of the few Indian casinos that stick with state law. Most other Indian casinos set their age limits to 21-years-old to prevent underage drinking on their premises.

You can find boxing cards and MMA fight cards at Morongo Casino from time to time. Most of these occur at the casino’s outdoor pavilion.

Since the casino is a tribal establishment, Morongo is regulated by the National Indian Gaming Commission.
