Ballo Italian Restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with its Tuscany-inspired atmosphere. The service is highly praised, with a professional and friendly staff providing knowledgeable attention. Guests have noted that the food is delicious, with standout dishes such as veal milanese, chicken parm, and calamari, which many have called the best they've had in years. The menu also features rigatoni, PEI mussels, and tableside mac n cheese. The atmosphere is wonderful, making it a great place for dining, and the timing between courses is well-managed. Guests have enjoyed outstanding service from the wait staff and general manager, with many describing the food as all delicious. The experience can feel like fine dining, especially with personalized drink pairings and dishes like prosciutto with ricotta and jam on toast. Recently, the restaurant was renovated and looks absolutely beautiful, adding to the overall positive experience. While some may be disappointed by recent menu changes, Ballo remains a popular choice at Mohegan Sun and is highly recommended by its guests. Visitors also enjoy the bar's signature drinks and save room for desserts like cannolis and zeppoli.
Recently, the restaurant has been reimagined with a beautiful space featuring gold-accented archways, a marble bar, warm lighting, and imported trees, blending rustic charm with modern elegance. The menu reflects the same commitment to craft and quality, offering handmade pastas, seasonal ingredients, and thoughtfully prepared classics such as pappardelle bolognese, branzino with burro bianco, or a 16 oz NY strip from Double R Ranch. Service remains polished yet welcoming, and the ambiance invites celebration, conversation, or simply savoring a luxurious Italian meal. The restaurant’s decor is classy and inviting, making it feel separate from the casino floor. Guests have expressed that the food and experience are excellent, with many planning to return annually for special occasions or just for a great meal. The steak dish, a special not named here, was described as delicious and tender, and drinks are also highly praised. Overall, Ballo Italian Restaurant continues to deliver a memorable dining experience that keeps guests coming back.
