Overall, reviews portray ETC Steakhouse in the Playground Casino as delivering exceptional service, attentive staff, and superb steakhouse fare with standout wines and generous portions, creating a warm, upscale atmosphere that makes it a top choice for celebrations and date nights; the dining experience is described as memorable and often compared to Michelin level service by some, with no tax pricing noted as a bonus, though a few critiques mention casino noise, occasional misfires such as overcooked fish, bland or underseasoned sides, and high prices, yet repeat visits and strong recommendations are common.
I had a wonderful experience at Ect. My server was exceptional very friendly & helpful. It was smaller than expected which I really appreciate as it's a more intimate dinning experience & not so loud & chaotic as larger restaurants. My rib eye was cooked perfectly, lobster tail was a great add on & the sides of French Fries & mashed potatoes were nicely flavored & a good portion size. I had a lovely evening & will definitely be returning.
Great service overall. Even though no tables were available when we arrived, the hostess, Rehanna, went above & beyond to accommodate us. She handled everything with professionalism & kindness, & we were truly impressed with the level of service & effort to make us feel welcome.
Les prix sont très haut, c'est comme si les taxes étaient incluses.
On nous offre une table d'hôte avec désert sans café, thé ou autre. À 100$ par personne pour un repas c'est INNACTEPTABLE, surtout à 4$ le café.
Un fond de coupe de vin le moins cher est à 18$, ça n'a aucun sens. La majorité des clients sont des perdants au CASINO, un peu de respect s'il vous plaît!
Les (boss boy) sont trop pressés de vider les tables, ils ramassent même les choses qu'on a pas fini d'utiliser.
Mon filet mignon était excellent mais ma queue d'homard était toute en pâte.
Certains plats sont excellent comme le calmars, le boeuf avec os court, la bouillabaisse.
J'aime beaucoup le personnel, tous très accueillants & cordiaux, ils nous facilitent beaucoup les choses.
Tres bien mangé & un excellent service mais le prix du rhum Bumba est nettement exagéré. Je prends régulièrement ce rhum lorsque disponible & c' est le prix le plus cher que j'ai paye.
The food is always delicious & the service is great. Though, the restaurant is inside a casino so it's going to be loud & that lowkey gives it trashy vibes but nothing can be perfect but God!! The food is top notch, give it a go!!
The food was fabulous, wait staff was attentive, nice presentation for the plates, overall a wonderful option for a date, occasion or in our case a ladies night
Served by Freeman, Great service , very welcoming & great professionalism- highly recommended!
(positive vibes, happy workers, great mood , definitely coming back)

BEST SERVICE FROM AN AMAZING STAFF. Gotta say that there was one individual that made the experience AMAZING. Our waiter Freeman made our stay unforgettable & made us come back another time. Thank you for the great hospitality!!💯
