This place has been a mess since its inception. Part of the Ho-Chunk family (Ho-Chunk casino, Majestic Pines, etc.) Dejope can not be classified as a 'casino' based on legal technicalities -- the reason for the annoying bingo game played in the upper corner of the 'slot' machine.
While one soon gets used to the bingo, one never gets used to losing their shirt due to the appalling low payouts. Regarding the 'little bit of Vegas right here in Madison,' these ads are the most ludicrous I've ever seen for any product, place, or service. Table games are non-existent, so if you're looking for a quick game of Blackjack or Poker, you'd better head elsewhere.
Service at Dejope is extremely poor: a slew of mostly unfriendly, non-smiling, obviously unhappy employees are what you will usually see here. Their restaurant personnel appear totally clueless and if you need a soda, you'd better plan on getting it yourself, as there is seldom a person there who serves beverages while you are gaming. (Not a big deal, perhaps, but it would be nice once in a blue moon).
Another word of warning: make sure you have cash on hand before coming to the casino. Nearly every single time I've been to Dejope, their ATM machines are 'out of order' which will force you to go through the hassle of writing a check or using a credit card. If you have a 'craving' to gamble, then Dejope might be the place for you. Otherwise, avoid it like the plague.
