Is it worth the drive from Philly to see the sights? Which casino should I visit? Dining?

Atlantic city, the shittiest Vegas in the entire world. Don't go, it's a dump.

I've never been, but hear it's gotten pretty shady (because it's rundown since they stopped investing with the writing on the wall for years).

I'd check out Babette's Supper Club.



It was blown up and rebuilt and I think it goes by The Onyx Club now.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to gut again.

It's pretty bad in the area and especially at night. It is suggested to not leave the hotel/casino at night.

Been there many times........the last was in 2007. Total dump....full of bums, and Russians too! Seriously, take the advice of others.

DO NOT...I repeat...DO NOT leave the immediate Boardwalk area. You go 1 block off the Boardwalk and its Thuggers, Muggers and Druggers.

I went two years ago, it was alright. Never felt unsafe or anything sketchy like that.

I guess I'd go again
