So, I decided to remove my recent reviews because I didn't feel that I should make 2 reviews for the same place, However I wanted to thank the Stewart Chris, Host Maddy and server Michelle in providing us with a delightful experience,
Thank You Michelle, Chris and Maddy for being good people and being great hosts and rep's of Mohegan.

Server was inexperienced but helpful. She did not check up on our party and had to go to the bar to check out. The food was overcooked, very dry and did not have good flavor. We ordered the chicken wings, these were pre-cooked and then recooked making them very dry and tough. The Guiness beef sandwich was extremely dried out. The beef feeling like soft parchment. They did reimburse us for the sandwiches and and apologized for the meals which was nice.

I’ve been here multiple times, some nights the place is a giant party. Fun lively. But the last few times this month I’ve been here, if it’s even open, it’s changed. The menu is shrinking? The portions are huge and delicious, but it’s turning into a very different place. Some MBA has gotten hold of it and reduced its attractiveness. I will not bring my partner her next time we come. There is no high end food, that’s sounds snobby. How about a healthy choice. Clearly just pub food.
All that being said, you can’t finish the portions, if you like heavy calorie comfort food, this is your place. Catch it on live music night and have a great time. I’m traveling for business, it’s been an “go to” for me. It’s narrowed in on a different crowd than me.

Ok take two. I’m not sure what’s up with the front of the house with this bar but it’s not good. I wrote a review for the casino and bar a couple weeks ago. I gave the casino good marks but the front of the house two stars. I am now lowering that to one star. I had a situation a couple weeks ago where some condescending tweener made me wait for a table of one while they were trying to seat a table of six. This time I was the only one to be seated when I tried again. The girl who seated me was about as rude and condescending as any customer service person I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. I won’t be back !!

Appetizer was good, food not so much. Over cooked, fries tasted burnt in deep fryer oil. Service was great especially since there was minimal staff on duty.

Waited in line for hostess, said it would be 20 minutes, let her know we would wait at the bar. We watched her seat 10 people who were behind us. I go to ask her about it and she told me we had to go get back in line per her boss. We ended up staying at the bar, getting appetizers only and happy to give our tip to the bartender who was awesome. Imagine losing money on a 6 top for dinner because the boss was rude.

Came into the Hive with three other people for dinner. The waiter came and took our drink orders, it took a long time for the order to come. After a while we ordered food. Three orders came but not mine. I questioned the waiter and she said it would be right out. It still didn’t come out. I spoke with, I believe was a manager and she said the waiter forgot to put it in. So I waited while my friends ate. It came out but it looked bad. So I complained and it was taken off the bill. But I wasn’t there for a free meal, I wanted a good one. See my photo.

First time at the Hive tap house and enjoyed some good beers on tap. Also enjoyed the house margaritas as well. The pizza was top notch! Our server/bartender Caleb was friendly and made sure we were taken care of during our visit. We will definitely be back!

Stopped by this spot in the casino for appetizers and everything was really, really good. We weren’t very hungry, but we truly enjoyed everything we tried. Great flavors and a fun atmosphere!

Okay, lesson learned: breakfast at a bar is rarely a good idea. However, since it was conveniently located in our hotel and cost $24 per person, we held out hope for a decent buffet.

We were highly disappointed. The quality was on par with the complimentary breakfast at a cheap hotel chain, which made the $24 price tag feel like a rip-off. The lowest point was the coffee. As you can see in my video, the cup I ordered black was translucent and pale, completely lacking any robust coffee flavor. It was essentially hot brown water.

The entire spread felt like a standard free breakfast you'd get with a roadside budget hotel room—just one you're paying a premium for. Very disappointing
