Ballo Italian Restaurant

ballo italian restaurant, located in the mohegan sun casino, offers a unique italian experience with intense design combinations, exceptional service and a fresh, authentic menu of italian favorites and new creations. ballo, which means dance in italian, was inspired by san galgano – a gothic abbey built in the 12th century and located in the hills of tuscany. guests enjoy a massive by-the-glass wine list, specialty ballo cocktails and freshly prepared italian fare from the open pantry while sitting in a cathedral-like room replete with, italian fixtures, fabrics and dramatic lighting. but the food at ballo is the real celebration. an exquisite yet approachable menu of authentic italian favorites designed with a fresh house pantry in mind. ballo’s unforgettable authentic italian cuisine is centered on utilizing "only the best ingredients, touched the least amount of times, by the best pair of hands." ~ owner john j. tunney iii
