Atlantic City’s newest casino may have ranked eighth out of the 12 in terms of gaming revenue in May and June, but gaming was from the start only part of the total package the property proposed to bring to an Atlantic City entertainment environment yearning to become more diversified.
Revel will continue to gain momentum as it welcomes more than 49 groups for meetings and conferences in July, over a dozen major entertainment acts at Ovation Hall and world-renowned DJs inside Revel’s HQ Nightclub, among other resort-wide amenities.

After more than 30 years, Duran Duran is having one of the best years of its career. Nick Rhodes talks about the group's next studio album and more.
On this evening, Azure offered East Coast varietal Wellfleet and another from Washington state. The Wellfleet’s were dense, meaty and creamy while their Pacific relatives, smaller but deeply cupped in shells, offered a smooth, salty hint of their briny home.
From a casual lunch-truck approach to modern Mexican to the finest in French-inspired cuisine, Revel will have the entire dining spectrum covered.
“The club is built vertically, which, from all my years of experience and all the nightclubs I’ve viewed globally, I’ve never seen such a vertical build. "
The catalyst behind Revel’s ambitious nightlife and entertainment options is the Las Vegas-based Angel Management Group (AMG), which brings three unique nightlife concepts to the property and southern New Jersey.
“When I look at Atlantic City, maybe I just see something different,” says DeSanctis. “What I see, when you go out on our Sky Garden or you go out on our deck, that’s sort of the Atlantic City that I think about. We have this incredible geographic location. We have 47 million people within a six-hour drive of this place, and when we think about options from a resort perspective in the Northeast, there really aren’t any. "
Wiedmaier’s room won’t be the only place to grab a steak at Revel. Chef Marc Forgione, one of Revel’s two TV Food Network “Iron Chefs” (Philly-based Jose Garces is the other) will be opening American Cut, which he described as his spin on a “classic steakhouse.”
Back in January 2009, Revel Entertainment felt the recession crunch and was forced to lay off part of its construction crew, halting progress on the interior of its nearly $2 billion north-end Boardwalk casino project and limiting progress to the building’s exterior alone.

“What a bias article! Did Revel pay you to write this! seriously their in trouble! They need to make Borgata revenue to even make dents on their debt payments coming up. No way will their non-casino revenue make up the difference in their casino revenues don't go up. And 1 million more than last month means nothing to what they spent in slot dollars and marketing.”

“Comment #1 is crazy. That's like saying that Target beats Disney in retail, therefore Target is a more lucrative company. What you didn't factor in is the other forms of revenue that Disney has opposed to Target. So your argument is invalid.”

“Even if revenue has an uptick...is it sustainable once the novelty has worn off and/or the winter months roll in? of the 618k visitors, how many will return on a recurring basis and how many dollars per visitor were spent inside the Revel? Once these questions, and others, are answered, can you pass judgement on the viability of the Revel. Revel succeeding = great for AC!!
