Casino Admiral Mendrisio Review Jump to comments

Located just 5 minutes from Italy, Admiral Casino is situated in the FoxTown shopping center, in Mendrisio, Ticino, Switzerland and is one of five properties owned by Admiral Casinos & Entertainment AG. There is a casual quick-service bistro and a tasteful 40-seat restaurant with a wine cellar for dining and, of course, the casino. The spacious gaming floor features nearly 350 slot machines spread over two large slot areas (smoking and non-smoking), including VIP slots and slots for intermediate players. There are also 26 table games and a poker room for tournament play as well as cash games. Proper attire is required. 

While there is no on-site lodging, the 108-room Hotel Coronado is just steps from the Casino Admiral Mendrisio and is within walking distance from Mendrisio railway station. In addition to food and drink options, the hotel complex also offers flexible meeting and event space, a boutique, a beauty shop and bureau de change/currency exchange.  Admiral Poker Room players can get special rates here.

Dining & Restaurants

Ristorante Admiral

• Serving: Regional, International

One of two dining options at Casinò Admiral Mendrisio, the menu at Ristorante Admiral seats 40 and features an impressive wine cellar. The menu offers starters and gourmet dishes such as Cruncy Octopus Arms and Red Shrimp Tartare, along with Roman-style pizza, pasta courses, main courses and dessert. 

Admiral Bistrot

• Serving: Regional, International

Located on the second floor of the Mendrisio Casino next to the FoxTown entrance, L’Admiral Bistrot welcomes players daily and offers a lavish buffet, daily specials, and the classic Bistrot Menu. Unlike the Admiral Restaurant which is more suited to diners who want to savor their meal, the bistro is a great choice for those who want a quick meal that won't keep them away from gaming for too long.
