It's not an entertainment centre just a place to gamble. The Steakhouse was closed, the buffet closes at 8pm just as well the Diner was still open. There is nowhere to sit and enjoy the view and have a quiet drink with friends More

Really grim excuse for a casino. The Superman statue was better, and it wasn't much. More

We all know that Superman grew up in Metropoli, but did you know that Metropolis is in Southern Illinois? Downtown Metropolis has a large Superman statue and close by is the Harrah Superman museum.

Our first time at Harrah's...clean and the food at the buffet was okay, but nothing special. Maybe because we are not really gamers, just not that impressed...I will say that the employees were very cordial however. More

Did'nt win anything first day, did... More

We always have a good time here--non smoking casino, fair selection of slots, cheap (not free) cocktails, a buffet, and a burger joint. Great place to play until your next Vegas trip! Plus, being a Harrah's property, you'll be earning room comps in Vegas while playing here. More

Harrah's is great fun and has even better food. The only downside is the location. The parking is not convenient. More
