The one in Harahan is probably the closest, and it's pretty big.
There's one in Metairie right off Causeway Blvd, but it's pretty small.
Nicest one is in Kenner not far from the airport just off Williams Blvd near the lakefront, but it's quite a far trip from downtown.

Harahan is your best bet unless you wanna cross the Miss river to the west bank where there's another OTB...stick with Harahan
