Please disregard all ratings except food. The only reason I have been to Baldini's is to eat at the Empire Diner, which I have done on multiple occasions and have always left with my expectations exceeded. If you come during their 2-for-1 specials, which is breakfast before 10 am or early dinner, you will probably pay less for your meal than you would in a third world country. (2 large breakfasts for $4.99!) Generally when I buy a cheap breakfast like that I'm expecting greasy eggs, white toast, and tater tots, but the food at the Empire is of a very high standard, and plenty of it too. It's a kid-friendly restaurant even though it is in the casino (close to the entrance). It's also a good place for dinner. The fried chicken is delicious and the salads are fresh.

Since joining the player's club previously, we now get coupons in the mail. The latest mailing had a coupon for a free burger basket (a $1.99 value) and a message saying we had $10 free ecash to use . When we stopped by earlier this year, we noticed a sign saying a Hooter's Restaurant was going to be built there.

Baldinis Sports Casino is a small casino in Sparks. We recently stopped by, joined their player's club and got t-shirts.
