Everything is big at the Old Homestead: the super-tender, 20-ounce Kobe-style burger; the bracelet-size onion rings; the 36-ounce Gotham rib steak; the crisp wedge salads; the monstrous shrimp on the mightily tiered towers of raw shellfish; the dictionary-thick wedges of chocolate cake; the Julian Schnabel cow portrait overlooking the dining room—and the line to get a table. The Borgata’s version of this NYC-originated steakhouse definitely channels Jersey casino-ness. Girls in camisoles and low-rise jeans traipse through the dining room toting bottles of Miller Lite; wine-addled birthday celebrants sing too loudly. The later the hour, the more the dining room resembles a West Orange house party. But so what? We kind of love this bridge-and-tunnel vibe.
