We stayed last weekend and the casino floor has changed with new slots. Golden Nugget is under a 1 million dollar renovation of the casino and rooms. My host said buffet will not be back but hopefully they will use the area as it is huge.
My Wife and I stayed there Wednesday and Thursday night last week while my Wife's Sister and Husband stayed at the crowded Borgata. GN needs to update the premises.
Maybe it's me, but nothing looks worn down. Dated? Yes. Worn down? No (in my opinion). The 70's and 80's retro look has come back. It just never left the Golden Nugget! LOL! Thanks for watching JohnnyJTav!
I agree but they are smaller company maybe they are content with their share of the Ac busuness. They gonna have a hard time competing against Hardrock,Ocean,Borgata. And now you have Trop n Caesars renovating too. Lots of competition.
@@NuYawk I thought your suite, Jeff, was nice. What's the going nightly rate these days, do you know, for a room and a suite?! I was surprised summertime weekdays and there weren't a lot of things open. Why do you think you were being followed??
@@NuYawk well I don't know where you are tonight, Jeff, but NY and NJ are under Hurricane Ian remnants and it hasn't stopped for 3 days and tomorrow just as bad; triple digits sound nice right about now. Enjoyed your video, as always. A real treat. Can't wait for the Hula burger, one of the burgers in contention for the best at the beach
@@fu9793 It's a long storm here in the mid-Atlantic; it doesn't help I work outside & we had summer through September when suddenly the calendar flipped to October and it got cold, windy, rainy fast. Hang in there F U
The casino on the Norwegian Getaway is one of the largest on any cruise ship! Here is a video of some odd casino games you won't find in a land-based casino: th-cam.com/video/4hhMbFHH8rI/w-d-xo.html More casino videos from the ship are coming including a slot pull!
Question: if you were to pick a restaurant in Atlantic City you'd most like to go if you only had a night, where would you pick; if I have to take a jitney, that's part of the fun
It's so hard to answer questions like this one. It depends on the mood I'm in and there are so many I've yet to try that I hear are outstanding. Resorts Casino Hotel Atlantic City, Capriccio Italian Restaurant is the #1 casino restaurant in America, again, for the third consecutive year and 4 out of the past 5 years. You can't go wrong with a place that's been consistently voted THE BEST casino restaurant in ALL OF AMERICA right? Great atmosphere, views of the ocean, food and cocktails and service. I may stop in this week (it's restaurant week in AC!) Hopefully I can bring you guys some video but it's pretty fancy shmancy. I call restaurants like Capriccio 'white linen' restaurants. Typically they frown on video and quite frankly, I feel awkward recording as well ... we'll see!
Thanks The Magic Hour! It's a Sony ZV-1. It's pretty much geared for vloggers and takes very good video, stills and live streams as well. It wasn't used in this video but you will see more of the results as I start to use it more. Thanks for watching!
Great video! And I liked the part where it showed the World's biggest gold nugget...but I thought that the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas had the World's biggest Gold nugget?
I mentioned in another video that there is only one real 'Hand of Faith' nugget, others are replicas (there are several Golden Nugget hotels and casinos). I believe the real one is usually in LasVegas but they do move it around once and a while. Thanks for watching and subscribing Simon!
It's on display in three Golden Nuggets: Atlantic City, Las Vegas and Biloxi. From what I understand the real one travels between the three but spends most of the time in Las Vegas. (If you believe that!) Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Sorry SpillThWine's Finds, that's just a picture of what to look for. The crown shows up elsewhere in the video as a quick flash in the background. Thanks for playing along, and for watching and subscribing!
I see you did a long shot of the hallway to "The Buffet", did you peek inside the glass to see if anything is still in there? I'm sad they haven't reopened it despite COVID being less of a danger, since it was the cheapest buffet in AC, though still decent and probably had the best custom salad station out of all the AC buffets. Unlike Caesar's Entertainment, Landry's has not explained why it closed its Golden Nugget casino buffets company wide nor if any of them will reopen or their former space will be repurposed. Seems like the companies used the excuse of COVID to remove a service that got people to return (especially with buffet comps) after losing money in the casino, the current CFOs of these casinos seem to nickel-and-dime these days as they forget the term "Loss Leader" from their economics classes!
The Golden Nugget website states the buffet is 'closed until further notice'. My feeling is eventually the area will be repurposed down the road. As you stated, they are a money pit and most casinos these days don't feel the loss leader aspect justifies the huge costs involved in keeping a buffet open. Thanks for watching djargus!
Landrys is not much of a player in the casino business. They can't have more than 4 maybe 5 smaller,older properties. Shame because that AC one sits on prime waterfront.
@@frontrowproductions9145 LOL! That carpet looks very similar (if not the same) as the carpet Bally's just replaced. I call it the etch-a-scetch carpet.

That place reminds me of a dirty 1970’s shaggy carpet… and I DO mean to be sarcastic when I say , that golden nugget is absolutely 100% fake 😂

Where? I still can’t see it
@@njw1968 a very small quick flash by the hanging gold and red decorations. It helps to see better if you slow down the speed of the video.
