I am looking for restaurant coupons in the casino such as two for one dinners
Janice,
The casino does not give an email address to contact them for questions so I am encouraging you to call this number: General Information – (712) 328-8888 and ask them about their coupons.
I’m sorry they don’t have this information on their site but it’s a good question so give them a call.
Enjoy your trip to Council Bluffs!
