Big Deal Casino School

"Such a fun evening! Was there with a group for a corporate outing. I knew nothing about casino games, but the staff there was extremely patient and taught me a lot. Ronnie & Jimmy at the craps table and Chris at the roulette wheel were terrific!"

"It's not only a BIG deal; its the best deal in town. A casino school by day, the only one operating in NYS, Big Deal turns into the best hot spot in town for social mixers, team building events, corporate parties, and fundraisers. I've been going to events there for years with New York Social Network and I also hosted a fundraiser there for a nonprofit I love. I was there two days ago for the first time in a while. The owner, Wendy, lovely inside and out, was as gracious and welcoming as ever. Michael was probably the best Blackjack dealer I have ever encountered, either here or in a real casino. The "gimmick" is that you pay a fee for admission and are given $2,000 in chips (of course, there is no cash value so if you lose it all, you can ask for more). The dealers teach you how to play (I never knew you could "double down" in Blackjack until Michael told me the other night). Drinks and snacks are available for purchase. Conveniently located in Manhattan, just minutes from the 28th Street stop on the "R" train, Big Deal Casino is THE place to book your next office party / experience."

"Great space. Had a blast! Can’t wait to come back."

"Not sure what their deal is, but a good time was had by all."

"I went to a fundraiser here for the TADA! Youth Theater. What an amazing time. Felt like being in a 1920s casino right here in the city."
