Located at Renaissance Pointe overlooking the marina, Borgata brings an all-encompassing, Las Vegas-style travel destination to Atlantic City. The 1.1-billion seaside resort-a joint venture of Boyd Gaming and MGM Mirage-offers a broad range of activities, a brand of hospitality, and a level of service designed to please business and leisure travelers alike.

Equally expansive-and impressive-the resorts dining selection includes 11 destination restaurants. They range from the modern Italian of Specchio and the prime beef selections of the Old Homestead Steakhouse to the bold French-Chinese cuisine of Suilan by Susanna Foo and the Pacific Rim-influenced delicacies of Mixx.

The restaurants also draw collectively from the hotels 14,000-bottle wine cellar.
