Recently we were invited to take a tour of San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino, followed by dinner at The Pines, Steakhouse restaurant. Located in Highland, CA., the casino provides hours of gaming pleasure with slots, poker, table games and bingo. It you are hungry, you can find all types of eateries from a Dodger Dog cart to a fine dining steakhouse. We like to thank Jonathan Yost and San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino for a fun time and a taste-bud extravaganza.
