as many suggested, Casino Royale will always get you low limit dice. $5 (100x odds), $3 (20x odds), IIRC.

$10/$15 is pretty common at all strip properties for dice, of course, YMMV, but there should always be at "least" one table at this level.

$5 will probably ONLY be found in the AM, or at some of the lower tier [strip] properties, but, is NOT unheard of during day shift, but, once again, YMMV.

It is very unusual for there to ONLY be higher limit ($25 and up dice tables) -- since unlike BJ, the table minimum is seldom the action of a given player (i.e. for a $10 table, your bets mights might look like $12 6, $12 8, $10 on the pass line, $30 odds --- etc. etc.) So, casinos know they need to keep the minimums reasonable, since it's NOT like you are just placing a bet on one hand of cards.

Exceptions are always after big events. After the Mayweather vs De La Hoya fight, the majority of the dice tables at MGM were $100, $200 and $500 (eeekkkk ) minimums.

edit to add : the Frontier (may she rest in peace) --- was one of my favorite late night/early morning places to play $5 dice. Always a drunk cowboy (or two) around to keep things fun. And, most memorable, one of the few places I've ever been able to hit a hard 10 on the hop (the few times, I felt lucky enough to really bet like a sucker! )
