+1 I won't be able to get to the Borgata for a few weeks. If someone would be so kind as to post a picture of list that would be amazing. Also any word if they will be 1:1 comp dollars or still 2:1?

Found this on TripAdvisor:

There's a sign in the cafeteria that states the following new places.

Pizata pizza and pasta

Original Philly steak and subs

Burgerville

Chop and toss salad

Asian fusion

Casa taco express

Ben and Jerry

Bringing 2 friends (mid 20s) with me to Borgata 5/20 weekend. I have a black card and really want to show them the Amphora lounge, is there no way I can bring more than 1 guest?

And also what's fun to do in Borgata other than gambling? Is the pool any good? Both of them are new to AC and don't gamble much.

They could also jitney or cab it to the boardwalk/outlet mall/aquarium.

Not that I ever do any of those things but they exist. I'm more of a gamble as much in two days as possible kind of guy.

Reimburse the person for the $10 comp dollars and you and a guest, and him and your guest can all go down.

An absolute last ditch effort would be to swipe yourself and guest in, go down, come back up, wait a few minutes and swipe yourself and the second guest in. You're paying for 4 people but better than nothing. My early 20s friends come all the time and I always take them to the club. Premier is always wild and one of the nicest clubs I have ever been to. Go early at 10 when it opens and get a stamp, come back at 12 after you pre game in the room.

Over priced but one of the few quick options that are 1:1 comp dollars.

Yup. Would rather go to bread and butter or cut off my right pinky finger then pay 2 for 1 comps downstairs.

Is anything in the building *not* overpriced vs. the outside world? It seems odd to complain about B&B specifically. (Or really at all...if you want a good price on something, nowhere inside a casino is the place to look.)

Well, would you rather pay $10-15 for a sandwich plus $4 for a beverage or pay $10 comp and go to the best buffet in the city and have whatever you desire?

OK, Amphora Lounge isn't overpriced. For the rest of us, everything is.

(Even NOW...it's not unreasonable, but I don't think it compares much more favorably to the real world than B&B. And my real world is NYC.)

The food situation in AC in general is just weird. For a city that would benefit from people being up at all hours of the night, you can't get a decent meal anywhere after about 10pm during the week.

Also, 2 for 1 comps is just insanity in any form. GN has starbucks at 1 to 1. If they can do it with Starbucks, there's no excuse for Borgata to not be able to get that done at their Starbucks.

I'm looking forward to a year of black card Amphore lounge access... just need to actually get there, status match and grind up some comp dollars (always have them applied to the room charges).

They have great food, but there are soooo many great places to eat for a third of the price (Middlesex and Monmouth Counties) that it still stings a tiny bit.

If you like the roast pork (Char Shu), try getting the wonton noodle soup and tossing some in there

honestly, i really only eat there when i have comps anyway, so the price is lowered to normal chinese food prices anyway.

i'll give it a try next time i'm down there.
