My daughter just turned 18 and she couldnt wait to go play bingo! It has been her wish since she was 14. I called here to see what age you have to be to play here. I was transferred to Johnnys line (the manager). I left a message asking the question and for a callback. Not only did I get a call back but a very informative voicemail with all the details we needed to know about coming to play bingo. We went to the Sunday afternoon game. The staff here is amazing. Everyone was so helpful. Johnny came over and introduced himself and made sure we had everything we needed! We will definitely be back!! Oh and yes she won the very 1st game!!

Johnny the bingo caller mumbles and hard to understand him. He goes to fast calling the number and it took 3 complaints to get him to slow down. Johnny was very disorganized with the flashboards. Bingo was not inviting for the nexy weekend. MITE NEEDS A NEW CALLER. ITS TIME FOR JOHNNY TO RETIRE AND LET A NEW CALLER TAKE OVER.

I have been coming here for years and I always enjoy the bingo here. The staff are always nice and helpful and the callers do a great job. Thanks for helping people who need it, while providing great entertainment for others as well.

Been going here for a few months. Okay at first, cost more to play here than some of the other Bingo places, but lately it has gotten bad.First incident: the male caller (dont know his name) started calling really fast on the blackout game, so fast you could not yell BINGO! before he would call the next number. You could hear him pull two bingo balls at once and then call them one right after the other without a breath in between. One lady yelled BINGO! but he had already said the next number so he said she did not win (she lost over $1000). I have not seen her back since. I actually stopped going for a few weeks too. So yesterday I thought I would give the place another try and wouldnt you know it, another lady yells BINGO!Second incident: The attendant was next to the winner to assist when the caller (same male caller) looks at her and without even verifying the card says, That is not a good bingo! and continues calling numbers, she yells BINGO! again and he asks her if she has the last number. Of course she did not since he had continued calling numbers so he denied her bingo (she lost $100).Third incident: In another game after a bingo was called, the male caller stops the game to verify the winning card, like he is suppose to, but before the attendant could assist, the caller starts calling the next numbers, then he says Oops, I guess I should verify the card first.Something is wrong with this guy! He needs to be reported and stopped. I am permanently quitting this place, most of the players are elderly and cant speak up so he is taking advantage of them. His cheating will continue, perhaps the MITE Center is a good cause, but their caller cheats.

I went to see a friend who works there she is a caseworker named Regina Sedano. She goes way out of her way to help people that she knows and people that she works with. McAllister does a lot of good for a lot of people! Ive never seen it turn anybody down its always opened up their arms to the public and to people who need help. Regina is no longer at the one I went to but Carlos is and he does a lot of good to help people also. Will I go back yes whenever I need help!

Mcallister is the best for rehab. The counselors and awsome. They really believe in what they are doing and it shows. Special thanks to Sean and Jose. Dont think I could have done it without you.
