Izakaya

We opted for the £95 per person chef selection to sample a variety on our first visit to the restaurant. The dining experience offered a mix of hits and misses; while some dishes were delightful, others needed improvement. We observed chewiness in certain meats, indicating a potential freshness issue given the price we paid. Additionally, some dishes lacked flavor, and the pork dumpling, coated in batter, would have been better in its original form – the batter made it excessively heavy. Despite this, the service was excellent, with attentive staff throughout. Overall, it was a positive experience, but there's room for reevaluation in the culinary offerings.

Beautiful restaurant, had a great time celebrating a friend's birthday. Waiter was very kind and helpful and we tried the chefs tasting menu which was excellent and timed perfectly with each of the four courses coming out separately.

The waitress was inattentive and, by the end of my dining experience, transitioned to rude. I ordered three different items. The miso soup, salmon negimaki, and a kani crab roll. The only decent item was the roll. The soup first came out cold, and the salmon was incredibly oily, and tasted like they just poured sesame oil on it. This was an extremely terrible dining experience, especially since I had been there previously a few times, and it was positive. It had been a while ago, and it seems to have gone downhill.

We decided to take advantage of their Monday $7 special deal. We started with the tempura cheese curd, noodles and tuna avocado. Tuna avocado was great, just tiny. Noodles were the highlight in my option. The cheese curds were … fine. We ordered 1 of each of the rolls on the special and as expected, they were an aggressive rice to filling ratio. The drinks were good, the lychee mojito was better than melon martini, which was VERY sweet. My SO was very happy with the beer prices and selection. He also wanted me to make sure to leave a comment of the lack of ginger.

Pretty good dinner at Izakaya before a show. Food was generally great - we had the $95 chefs tasting dinner, which was a lot of food. Ambiance is OK, but it is too dark in the restaurant. Service was generally OK, but food came not too fast in the beginning and then too slow when we asked them to slow things down just a little. Our waiter was nice but often MIA and did not check on us often enough.

Wonderful food & service! Our server Sal & Ming were so attentive even when it was busy!! Honestly, one of the best restaurant experiences we’ve ever had. We got so many delicious apps! The pork gyoza was amazing! The beef waygu fried rice was amazing too! We highly recommend this place and will be back on our next trip to Borgata! We thought this place would be good but not stand out in anyway and we were wrong!

Chef’s choice was at $95 per person, they gave you so much food and you can’t really finish. Most are tasty, service was exceptional. Only thing need to improve, sea bass was way too salty. Bigeye tuna roll was weak

We ordered lots of little bites lamb , duck , scallops, chicken, dumplings sliders , fried rice all were very good . Shrimp tempura was excellent the other roll was good not great. Staff was excellent I will definitely go back next time I I will try an entree we had 2 of each little bite . The dessert was excellent .

I am a fan of N.O.W. and the key is the time your visit here off peak because they are apparently very popular. We ventured here for dinner around 5 p.m. For starters, we had the Chicken Wings and Sweet Potato fries. Both portions were very generous but these choices were not that great. The fries were ok and the wings were not flavored well. My Chicken Pad Thai was my favorite. I asked for extra peanut sauce and sweet sauce and they both complemented the dish. I had so much left over there was enough for a whole second meal. The Peppered Dteak and the String beans with the side of white rice was the second runner up. Se our sever, was very helpful and attentive. We admired the efficiency of the staff and the Asian decor in the large space. It is definitely a family friendly place to enjoy a meal. By the time we left around 6:30 the line was literally out of the door. We were in shock and were utterly grateful we had dinner when we did because that line was crazy!

Went back to try the new location. The darkness couldn't hide the continuing departure of what was once greatness. Hot and Sour Soup- Tasted like Vinegar Soup with Corn Starch. Chicken Wings- Partially cooked and double dipped- Hard and Over Coated. Sinapore Mai Fan- Curry Powder just sprinkled on top. One shrimp and very greasy. I dont think the Chef is Asian. Please get another one. Bring back the Soup Lady. Do something. If if wasnt for comp it would be a complete rip off. But Service wss Good.

I wanted to love this place and was excited to come but I'm disappointed. The waiter was dry .. his delivery lack luster. I ordered the Thai ice tea .. it's supposed to be made with condensed milk, my tea was not sweet at all but overpowered by the tea. I tried to add sugar but it didn't help I don't think it was made right. I also ordered the veggie spring rolls they were very mushy inside crisp on the outside. For my dinner I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai .. the pad Thai itself was delicious, the chicken however kept tasting like scallops or fish, I wasn't sure if it was bad or cross contaminated cooked. My dad had the shrimp lomein he ate it no complaints. Maybe I'll have to try some other menu items we will see, not giving up yet.. The waiter did remove the tea from my bill but someone better check the chicken !

Hands down the best place to eat in the borgata for a quick light lunch or dinner . Service was fast. Food was fresh place was clean .

I have dined here multiple times during stays at Borgata but can't believe I never wrote a review. The service is what truly prevented this from being a 4 star review as it's literally subpar all the time regardless of time of day. The food is solid, especially the noodle dishes and fried rice options, with the crab fried rice and the wonton noodle soup being my favorites . They also have rotating weekly specials which of the ones I've tried have all been good. Also be aware that the restaurant is small which also adds to longer wait times.

NOW never disappoints! Visited for dinner with family and was immediately seated. The restaurant is located in a new place and it's way bigger. Love the food options and variety. Everything is made fresh! I ordered the salt and pepper pork chop. The waiter warned me that it was spicy, but it wasn't too spicy at all! I had also ordered a Thai iced tea-- it was so delicious and accompanied the meal so well. Excellent food and I will def be back again!

Noodles of the world located inside of the borgata casino was just okay. The decor is dark and cozy. You can dress up or dress down! The shrimp lo Mein was bland. My favorite thing about the restaurant was the hot tea. Also, I felt rushed by the server! As soon as I sat down the server wanted my order and didn't give me time to review the menu.

Service was great at new location. Love that you can have your own table now. Of course the food is a bit expensive, but is to be expected since located in casino. Grandfather chicken is very tasty and enough for 2. Spring rolls and dumplings a bit overpriced even for casino at $10 and $12 respectively. If looking for something other than buffet I recommend.

The food was amazing I took the leftovers home. The service was great and they were very attentive from the start which i appreciate. The ambiance is nice as well. I would definitely come back for this because it's one of the best Chinese food I've ever had !!!

N O.W. - Noodles Of The World - Atlantic City - have not been here since they moved to the larger location which used to be izakaya, same food, a bunch of additional options, more drink options, but same great flavors. The wings are awesome, super crunchy with great flavor. All the noodle dishes were on point. The new drink options added were delicious as well. As always service was on point. #noodles #asiancuisine #cocktails #hashtagstevej #foodie #thai #generaltsoschicken #doac #atlanticcity #ac #borgata

This place holds many memories as it was one of the first restaurants my wife and I enjoyed when dating. The food, ambiance, and music left us with great memories. What a difference six years make. We waited for a brief moment ro get seated. Once seated, we had a wait to make our initial order...Not sure if they were adequately staffed?? Ordered the wings, which were nice and crispy yet lacked flavor. The sauce provided was good and added flavor to the wings. We had to return one order of General Tso shrimp...was waterer and had a taste like a component of the dish may have been burnt. The order of Vietnamese Pho was good with no issues. The edemomie was hit. Lightly salted and not overdone.

We were really disappointed in our dinner experience here during our Borgata stay. We ate a lot of great food and met a lot of friendly staff while finding places to eat here, unfortunately not here. First off we walked up and were immediately taken to a table, great for speed but the hostess didn't speak at all. Not a hi, how are you, follow me, or enjoy, no words. We felt strange following her so she stood at our table for a moment before waving us over. We were sat and no one came to ask for our drink order or greet us, for 13 minutes. No big deal normally, but there were 3 other tables full, as we watched staff not attend to any and sit at the bar area. When a server finally came over he was laughing as he came over, I am sure it was not at us, but it seemed very unprofessional. He lost his smile speaking to us and seemed immediately annoyed that we wanted to order an appetizer, but hadn't decided on food yet. We received the sampler and were disappointed with the taste and presentation. $20 for that plate seemed so ridiculous. Since we really wanted to like the place or at least the food we ordered our entrees to-go. Don't get me started on how the waiter felt about this. Nonetheless, we got our food to go and the noodles were fine. Nothing special and certainly not worth almost $20 each. Especially with the few large chunks of chicken in the lo mien, it could've been cut so quickly! We were overall really disappointed and do not recommend stopping here. EVERY single restaurant we tried at the Borgota was miles above/better than this one.

I want N.O. W. now! This was what me and my lady friend kept chanting after a few drinks...this food was so good. We ordered a few apps and tre 's to split between us and everything tasted amazing. I would def go back the next time I go to A.C.

Stayed at Harrah's which didn't have many choices, so we came to Borgata. Looked on Yelp and was pointed to NOW. We had a small wait time along with a few others, and the restaurant was busy. We were seated at a very comfortable table where half was a tall back loveseat. Service was fast however the 2 servers we spoke with had never tried the food and couldn't give a recommendation, never a good sign. We each ordered something different to share. Pho was ok, beef noodle dish was good, my pork dish I thought would be marinated but was pieces of fried pork with no sauce so it ate very dry. The egg drop soup was my absolute favorite. We ordered thai teas and a Vietnamese coffee. The teas had none of that classic sweetness. Overall I would eat here again, but it wasn't a place I would brag about after. Good service, comfortable environment, ok food.

Walked into NOW was seated after waiting about 5 min. Waited about 10 minutes for someone to take my order, it was busy but not super crowded, pretty laid back. Nice mix of music was playing people were talking everyone looked like they were having a good time. I order edamame and fried chicken wings to start and general tso's shrimp for my main entree. The edamame was really good nice and salty the way I like them. The chicken was fried golden brown the only thing missing was the seasoning there was no flavor to the chicken. The fried chicken came with a sweet and sour sauce. When I dipped the chicken in the sauce it gave it a little flavor. However in my opinion food should be seasoned and the sauce should be a compliment not the main attraction (just my opinion). The general tso's shrimp tasted and smelled burnt and the sauce was runny almost like a gravy so I sent it back and ordered general tso's chicken. The general tso's chicken tasted a little better and the sauce was sticky like I am use to. The white rice was just plain white rice. I also ordered the pomegranate mojito for a drink. The mojito was ok to much juice. I would not return to this restaurant as I have had better food at other restaurants.

3.5/5 Stars Decent Asian food for being inside of a casino. They are also one of the restaurants that are open a little later, which worked out for us because we were there around 10pm. We got a Hot & Sour soup - very standard and was a good size. Vietnamese Pho - the thin noodles were delicious. Broth was really good too but you can tell that they used a lot of salt / msg. Beef Lo Mein - pretty standard in terms of taste. A good sized portion as well.

I've been coming here a couple times a month for over 10 years. This is the first time not only did I finish the whole noodle bowl, but am left wanting more. It seems as if the rising price is directly proportional to the decreased amount of noodles in the Hong Kong Wonton soup. Sad face! Broth is pretty good with plenty of flavorful veg though! And I do love the condiments on the table so I never have to ask, plenty of seating, and quickly prepared food. Can we add about twice the amount of noodles in the main course soups please??

Amazing food great service highly recommended. We got the curry chicken this time and the Singapore Mei Fun plus drinks. Five stars all the way

If it wasn't for any other place to eat, or get food I would not come back. Howeverr, please know.. TAKE OUT, has a service fee.. you either automatically pay the tax or gratuity... According to Borgata and N.O.W. there is a "Contract" that the restaurant/Borgata has..that is needed to be paid. Is that fair for the customers to pay? It's a take out. Since they can't sit in...

We had a late dinner here, they are open until midnight which is nice. We were seated immediately and got our orders in pretty quickly. We sat at a communal table since there was room there, otherwise, there were small tables surrounding the communal table. The lighting is a little darker making it feel more intimate. We got their crispy bacon shrimp roll with wasabi mayo, steamed pork, shrimp & chive dumplings, eggplant with garlic sauce, and BBQ pork fried rice. The bacon shrimp roll with wasabi mayo was yummy. The steamed dumplings were good, nothing too special. The eggplant with garlic sauce was cooked well, I didn't realize it would come with other veggies as well. The BBQ pork fried rice was also solid. For price and food based on where it was located, it was decent.

We stayed at Borgata for a birthday and came here for dinner. This place is located in the middle of the casino, The wait was longer than expected, and once seated, I felt rushed throughout the entire meal. The crabmeat fried rice was a standout dish, flavorful and satisfying. However, while the food and service was quick, it sometimes felt too rushed, with the server constantly grabbing plates while we are still eating. To make matters worse, when we asked for to-go boxes, the server returned and dumped everything together in them resembling dog food and threw half of our soup on the table. Peking duck also came with sweet and sour sauce lacking the classic duck sauce accompaniment. The ambiance and atmosphere felt rushed.

Was greeted upon arrival. Was seated immediately. I liked the fact that they stayed open pretty late (12am). Everything else at the Borgata closed pretty early. We looked at the menu, nothing that REALLY caught my eye. I just chose what I was familiar with which was the house special lo mein and cream cheese Rangoon. Honestly was not impressed. The Rangoon was a little too done and crispy and the meat inside of the lo mein that I received was not flavorful. We took food to go because we didn't eat much there but ended up not eating the leftovers because we honestly didn't like the food. The place looked nice but small. Which was fine. It was only two of us so he had a place to sit. The service was very nice. That's where the stars come in at. We were treated very well at this establishment. Our server was helpful.

The quality has dropped since Pandemic. As a Native Cantonese from Hong Kong, I am quite sure they have changed their chef from some Native Chinese to Non-Chinese chefs. The lady who used to make authentic Wonton soup is gone. Some wok fry dishes taste like simple sauce stirred with noodles not wok fried. Taste is different with the Non- wok skills. Portions are small, price for some dishes jumped 40%. I'm disappointed and hope the management sees my option to make improvements.

Great chicken pad tai. Service great. Decor is nice minimalist. Borgata is one of the nicest casinos to walk around

One of my favorite places when I visit Borgata will definitely recommend it. The service and food are outstanding

Ordered Crab Rangoon appetizer and Pad Thai chicken entree. Crab Rangoon never arrived. Pad Thai Taste was average. Asked for medium plus spice but was served mild. Reminded foreign speaking waiter about missing Rangoon and it arrived as I finished the entree. Waiter apologized and said he would take it off the bill but left it in the bill. I didn't feel like waiting longer or arguing so I just paid for it. Slightly disappointed with the experience.

Haven't been here for over 14 years. Glad that the business is still here. The food quality has gone down. Order the Vietnamese pho noodles with sliced beef. Was disappointed that the beef cannot be separated has to be inside the bowl of soup. The soup is very salty a little bit bland. Order chicken pad Thai. The noodles didn't have any flavor. Chicken just tastes like baking soda. Very few chicken. Order the beef chow fun. The flavor was a bit light and the oil was overpowering. The service was okay. Was very disappointed.

First time trying out N.O.W. and I'd have to say it's average. First off, the decor is nice but there's not much space, just a few small tables, one long communal table, and then seating along the cooking station, where we sat. The service is fast and professional, but the food we had was, well, average. The Chicken Lo Mein had minimal flavor and the noodles had a reheat-type texture. The shrimp & pork steamed dumpling were a little better. The prices are reasonable. I would go again and try something different, but from a first-visit perspective, it's a mediocre dining experience.

No-frills restaurant in the middle of the gambling section of the hotel. Service was quick and efficient, but completely nonexistent afterwards. Price wise, it's inexpensive compared to the restaurants within the hotel premises, and the food here is served in generous portions. We had the pad Thai (3/5) it was absolutely bland and pale, lacking seasoning and the smoky flavor you only get when cooked at a really high temperature. The dish was served warm when it should be hot. The beef noodle soup (3.5/5) was lousy as well, lacking flavor. The chicken wings (4/5) were quite standard and seasoned properly.

Well it was a decent restaurant but not great. The noodle dish we had was rather bland. But I will say the beef in the dish was good. Had an $18 appetizer and sure did not get much on the plate for $18. Service was ok but not great. Probably will not eat there again.

Burned crab Rangoon, what is best describe as "Vietnamese adjacent" spring rolls, and good lo mein (though was severely lacking in meat). However, the real insult was the required 18% gratuity FOR TAKEOUT.

They need to totally revamp this establishment. Beef and Broccoli - beef was tough (authentic Cantonese cooking the beef would be so tender it milts in your mouth); Chicken Curry - every piece of chicken were so dry it was like eating wood chips. I won't be back anymore. Clearly it is not authentic cooking, it is done by amateur. What I call fake Chinese Food. I predict unless real chefs take it over this will not make it in two years.

Bad service. Overpriced. Poor quality. This place use to be fairly good, to the point where I craved the soup in my sleep. This is no longer the case. I got the sa cha beef which was my favorite. It's practically flavorless now. The noodles taste like nothing and the beef is very poor Quality. I get that the portions are large but this soup isn't worth $18. You can't eat much of it anyway since it's not good.

Brisket soup was mostly fat and jalapeño.. It was also weird sitting across a table from strangers.

N.O.W. (Noodles of the World located in the middle of the Borgata) always seems to be busy. I've only dined in a few times and it has been years since the last time I did. I usually order take out so I have lunch or dinner for the next day. Ordering to-go is convenient as they take down your cell number and text you when your food is ready so you can walk the casino and gamble while you're waiting. The seating in N.O.W. is unique. Around the perimeter there are small individual tables and they also have bar seating. They also have two large tables in which you're seated with other guests. I really liked the look of the stones underneath the glass tabletops where your place setting goes. We were seated pretty quickly at the large table with other guests in the middle of the restaurant. It took some time for a server to come around to take our order but the food was out pretty quickly after that. We started with hot tea which we all enjoyed. I had a Kirin Ichiban beer from Japan (they had 1 other Japanese beer and some sake on the menu along with a red and white wine). They had a nice variety of dishes from different parts of Asia. We decided to pass on appetizers and went straight to the entrees. I ordered Vietnamese Pho with thinly sliced beef. We also had Pork Lo Mein and Kyoto Udon. I was able to try all three and loved them all. The Pho broth was delicious and came out at the perfect temperature. It was served with plenty of bean sprouts, fresh jalapeño slices, plenty of hoisin, basil (which I did not use), and a juicy lime. The Udon noodles in the Kyoto Udon had great texture and was served with generous amounts of pork, chicken, and shrimp. The sauce was great and while full of flavor it wasn't overpowering. The Lo Mein was served with plenty of pork and all of the vegetables added a nice crunchy texture to each bite. The atmosphere in N.O.W. is nice. It was enjoyable sitting with strangers, but I can see how this could be unappealing especially if you're seated next to unfriendly people. The prices are on the high side but that's to be expected with the restaurant being located in an Atlantic City casino. The experience was very enjoyable and so was the food. This will not be our last time dining in at Noodles of the World and will have to make it a more frequent occurrence. Side note - They take MGM comps 1:1.

Probably the best Asian - fusion I guess you can call it. Where they have various styles of noodle dishes from Chinese to tai style pad tai. But it's a simple menu but awesome derive is top notch. & the vibe is execellent

The food is okay it's good when it's the last option there Lo mein is okay and service is good

Service was very pleasant and attentive as was the greeting. I was disappointed that as soon as I sat down I had to point out to my server that the water glass had spots and needed to be changed before adding the ice water and my fork was had food debris on it as I unwrapped it ..... what do I need to look for moving forward hope nothing more to exchange first course arrives the Vietnamese pork spring roll and after first bite it was barely warm, doughy and was the wrong spring roll I ordered so it was exchanged. The new spring roll was correct but sadly barely warm even after mentioning that the first spring rolls were not hot. The new rolls were at best a 5/10 a (d- ) this is for the flavor and temperature. For entree I had the sliced chicken with noodles, Yu choy and fried shallots I'll give this a 7.5 (c) the soup was not steaming hot, the Yu choy was chopped fine and the star of the dish the chicken was thick large squares of tender white meat, was expecting thin sliced boiled or steamed chicken though..... obviously these were premade and dropped into the soup to order.... The chicken broth had no umph and definitely not flavorful...... did I mention the soup could be eaten immediately so if you are used to big bowls of Asian noodle soups you know you have to take it slow because they should be steaming hot....definitely not a trip to Chinatown. Almost three stars and by the way I had an order of wontons the night before at NOW and they were nothing to Bragg about either..... I know ‍two attempts in 2 days.

I tried for the first time and it was great. The line was kinda long but we were seated pretty quickly. I tried their crab fried rice and it was soooo good.

I ate here the other night i order kimchi, N.O.W wings and beef noodles. I soon as i started eating the wings i knew something was wrong i immediately stopped eat the wings and before i could cancel the noodles they waiter brought them out, i asked to take them to go. I went up to my room to as i started not feeling well, i decided to take a shower and before you knew it i was throwing up like crazy.... I felt horrible! I contacted the food and beverage manager and let her know she made sure i was ok they checked on me and everything i said i will take Pepto-Bismol and sleep. At checkout i was told i was charged for the meal which i was shocked because not only did i speak to the HPM but also the borgata front desk about this issue, i was shocked but i said forget it I'll pay the 80 dollars but give my honest feedback. I think this was my 4th in this place and every time i tell myself why do i go eat there, i really need to start leaving the hotel when i stay for better food options.

Fantastic Thai food . The soups are rich in sodium. The service is pretty fast . Seating is sometimes communal . The ambiance is fast food/in and out . You can order it and takeout which is great when it's crowded or just don't want to stay there and eat . Located right in the center of the casino it's rarely quiet . Would definitely recommend

It was just ok. The food was warm not hot. There was no drink menu but they were able to accommodate making a martini. It was just meh. But the gag is...there isn't much else in the area. Sooo... bon apetit!

We enjoyed our meal here! Had to wait on line on a Thursday, but that is par for the course at borgata! The food is very reasonably priced and is one of the more affordable options at the borgata. I got the Peking chicken and shrimp, and my fiancé got the udon with chicken, shrimp and pork. We split the eggplant in garlic sauce. Everything was good and good portions. Other things we saw that looked great were the steamed dumplings, general Tsos chicken and lo mein. Also wanted to try the Vietnamese spring rolls! Would come back here for a meal if I'm staying at borgata!

Overall good experience. Good food overall and very large portions, which is nice considering high casino prices on food. We got the fried dumpling, General Tso chicken, and the kyoto udon. The kyoto udon could have used maybe a bit more flavor, but overall we were really pleased. What we would say was exceptional was the speed of service. The food came out like immediately! One kind of strange thing is that there are very few tables for two, so either expect to sit at the bar area or at a shared table with strangers. Staff was very attentive.

Parents went here for the weekend and had a great time and wanted to order some short ribs home....guess how much this box is?!?!? 38 dollars?!?!? I think I rather starve....what a difference dine in and takeout? Reduculous!

Keep hearing from my friend how good this place is and especially the beef noodles soup is the best. Finally I got a chance to try it. Order appetizers, fried rice, beef chow fun, stir fried noodles and most important gotta try the beef noodles soup. Vietnamese spring roll is just ok & dumpling is not bad. Fried rice were good. The stir fried noodles is good. The beef chow fun that we order, not much 'wok hay', and need more dark soy sauce for coloring. But Yes the beef noodles soup is best of the all, the beef were very tender and it melt you in your mouth and the broth got good flavor. The only think I don't like about it, the place is kind of small, there's not much separate table. Mostly is all common area. I guess they want you to eat quick and leave and go back to gamble more. Overall, I would definitely go back again.

Really enjoyed the food at NOW. The General Tso's chicken was fresher and lighter than I've ever had it. I ordered a side of Kimchi because the broccoli was sparse in the dish. It was delicious too. This place obviously has really good food but the space is pretty tight. Our server also wasn't particularly attentive. But I would definitely come back. A meals here is about $20 on average. The serving of food is a decent size though and can definitely be split between two people.

I've always loved N.O.W. From borgata. It is pricey and it's because you can use your comp dollars here at a 1:1 ratio. The price might be overpriced compared to a sit down local restaurant but it's actually one of the more reasonably priced restaurant inside Borgata. The food quality is exceptional. They are quick where from the time you get seated to the food arrival, it's all within 15 minutes. This is great when you're hungry and ready to eat. One of the best parts is their abnormal overly sized portion of food. They have to be purchasing XL plates and bowls to serve their customers. My favorite has always beef their beef tendon noodle soup but I was feeling for something different. Beef sa cha noodle soup was delicious along with the singapore mei fun.

I've ate here several times since my last review and each time has been has been a fantastic experience. The service has been top notch, food was plentiful and delicious. Most importantly the cook and management take every precaution that I don't get sick since I've had celiac disease. Big thanks to the big boss Derek.
