In August of 2005 I first visited Borgata quite accidentally, I had a wonderful experience so much so that in September I brought my husband back for a stay. OUr intital reaction was that we love to stay there, that we do not even need to leave the hotel if we do not want to. We loved the dining options, we loved the rooms, there were no flaws. This last visit did not go well. The expansion seems to have taken so much of management's attention that other prorities are being neglected. The rooms are looking shabby with burn holes in sofas and shabbiness showing in some of the bedroom chairs. But the beds are heavenly. The staff seems to have too much to do, and as a patron I feel that they cannot give me the time I need when I have an issue. We tried Bobby Flay's new restaurant. The concept and the menu is quite good, but unfortuneatly he needs to be there. The staff does not really understand his food. For instance, I had the lobster and avocado salad. While you can get it ready long before service the actual assembly should take place last minute, so as not to compromise the integrity of any item. This item was clearly pre-plated and put in the fridge long before service began. It had no flavor, because it was too cold and too old. The avocado was black and very cold, I do not want to eat cold avocado, the onion was cut in circles which deteriorated while wating to be eaten. The lobster used in this dish was claw and knukle all of it having lots of pieces of shell in it that could have broken by teeth. The whole thing was served in a glass and was imposssible to eat without splilling. It could have been a knock-out dish, but Mr. Flay needs a trainer in there to give this staff some info about how to properly put a dish together, and when to do it. The cut of my pork was extraordinary, a true genius of a buy. The sauce was inspired, the apples cooked to perfection, and then... the person who cooked it, did his level best to cancel anything that is good and exceptional about this piece of meat. The bread was super. As a restaurant owner myself with a Zagat rating and a NYT "very good"
I sensed that the kitchen is just putting the food out, not making food for diners. I also sensed from the quality of the ingredients tht Mr. Flay wants something more and may not even know that there is trouble in the AC store. It seems they lack discipine. My husband's hash browns should never have come to the table. The cook had to see it, the runner had to see it, the expediter had to approve it and the waiter may or may not have seen it. My 17 year old bussers would have brought it back to the kitchen. It was like eating sawdust, and you could see it when it was laid on the table. A petrified mess of hash browns with all of the moisure removed from it, and the potates covered in sawdust. NO hint of onions, butter, cream, anything, just sawdust. Bobby honey, just I think I can take a vacation, and you think they can do it without you, they can't . Fix it please so I can go to AC and have some of your wonderful food.

Love the rooms, but I'm a fancy man and require a large room with fountains and works of art. I prefer staying at Trump or Caesers.

Borgata has movies in the elevators!!!!!!!!! I'm in trouble and arrested
The Borgata is great but because they have Movies playing in the elevators...I was arrrested. You see they were playing an elevator movie that I hadn't seen before, so went to my room and got a chair and set up camp in the elevator. I got a a six pack and some snacks....BTW it was a Harry Potter Movie....I was in there for about 45 minutes...most people were very nice and didn't talk much while they rode to thier floor but....two loud mouth people got on and push the button the top floor.....I knew they were going to be trouble , so I "shhh'ed em right-a-way...I seems that they were a pair of big time nickle slot players, they threaten to hit me with thier walkers. I shhhh'ed em again because Harry was looking like he was getting in trouble.....but they just wanted to talk about losing the rent money.......I had enough....I gave em a really big "shhhhhhhh" plus gave em the finger over my lips just to make it offical. Well I thought it workd....but it was just that they reached thier floor......FINALLY! Now I can watch Harry Potter in peace....but I was in for a big surprise.......I got to the lobby....there were tow Borgata thugs at the door....."OH GREAT!" I thought these guys are going to be on thier Walkie Talkies....but they were after me! They drug me out of my elevator....thru the lobby........and out to the curb to a waiting police car.......It was terrible....Atlantic City Jails did not have Harry Potter playing!!!!!!!!

Me and my house boy Ramone checked into the Borgata for a 3 day stay. I lost at craps because the dealer was making fun of my perfect diction when I would speak. Ramooooooooone fetch my hybrid

The Bellboys are very sexy
I met this bellboy, he was about 25 or so, he knew I was a famous person and he helped me to my room at THE BORGOTA. I told him to come into the shower with me and he did. While I was washing his hair he asked me if Eva Gabor was still my girlfriend. I told him that she died years ago and that I stopped having fake girlfriends after that.
Then I ate 20 meals from room service and then I called Pat Sajak and fired him from Wheel Of Fortune.
I am a fat old queen but I kind of liked the Borgota. My only complaint is that the male staff should be naked.

This hotel made my pussy itchy
I am a famous woman and when I bring my famous pussy with me to hotels in Las Vegas, we get treated like royalty -- not so at The Borgata -- and what the f**k does BORGOTA mean anyway? It sounds like a made-up name.
The restaurant MIXER was for c'afones and guidos --- some were cute but most of them were out of style Philadelphians. The girls were DOGS!
Nobody wins anything because the slot machines are rigged to NOT PAY.
My roon had fungus and me and my pussy both got fungus.

First of all ,I read most of the reviews other people wrote , And I can,t believe some of the things they said,
My experience at the Borgata have been wonderfull, I have stayed there for the fourth time , two nights at the time each stay, and have been treated royaly, All times my rooms have been compted ,Shows at the Comedy Club as well.
I love the Casino, slots and table games are very diverse, Never had any trouble getting drinks either, I will go back any time, Beds are the most Wonderful beds I have slept in, Thank you , Borgata!!
