Prior to that point, Fiesta Rancho had been one of Station's worst-performing properties. Nevada casinos were closed on March 17, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Station Casinos purchased the Fiesta in 2001 and renamed it as Fiesta Rancho to differentiate it from its new sister property, Fiesta Henderson. At the time, a majority of the Fiesta's slot machines played video poker, and the casino had been proclaimed as 'the Royal Flush Capital of the World,' having paid out over 118,500 royal flushes won through its video poker machines. A $26 million, 50,000 sq ft (4,600 m 2) expansion took place in 1999, adding a food court, a parking garage, and additional casino space.

The expansion included a drive-through sportsbook, a remodeled buffet, and a larger casino. The resort was popular among local residents, prompting a 50,000 sq ft (4,600 m 2) expansion that began in 1995. It was the first hotel-casino to open in North Las Vegas.

The Maloof family opened the Fiesta on December 14, 1994, with 100 rooms and a 25,000 sq ft (2,300 m 2) casino.
