Italian Dining at Ballo

At first glance when you walk into Ballo Italian Restaurant at Mohegan Sun Casino you think you’ve just entered a century-old gothic castle! The whole place is just amazing and these pics certainly don’t do it justice. From the super high arches and gorgeous corinthian pillars to the beautiful lighting and an amazing menu, this my friends is my kind of dining!Dining at Ballo @mohegansunDining at Ballo @mohegansunA "Ballo Limonata" was awaiting my arrival1 @mohegansunPerfect cocktails at Ballo Italian Restaurant @mohegansunWe began our culinary adventure with fun cocktails. Our beyond great waiter suggested the ‘Ballo Limonata’ which was quite refreshing and then I moved on to a ‘Peach Bellini’ to soften my palette. Next on our radar were one of my favorite appetizers, Calamari Fritti and these gorgeous Arancini Risotto Fritters. The super delectable Buffalo Mozzarella with Roasted Asparagus was a nice change from the norm.

NIGHTLIFE & LATE-NIGHT DINING
BALLO offers a truly Outstanding Late-night Dining, Cocktail & VIP Experience.
BALLO Italian resembles a Gothic abbey built in the 12th century located in the hills of Tuscany. The sheer magnitude of the space fits perfectly with the evolving grandeur and elegance of Mohegan Sun and its connection to nature. The stunning lounge features cozy couches with low cocktail tables, lush carpets and dim lighting for an even more intimate experience. Situated underneath the grand arches with antique lighting, the lounge as well as the beautiful marble bar, are perfect for enjoying some mouthwatering late night eats & their truly exceptional signature cocktails.

 

Special thanks to Mohegan Sun Casino & Ballo Restaurant for hosting an amazing dinner. All opinions are strictly my own.
