Mohegan Sun to open new restaurant in spring 2024

15 December 2023

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Mohegan Sun, one of the world’s leading integrated entertainment resort destinations, is pleased to announce The Shed, a new restaurant concept by celebrated restaurateur, John J. Tunney III. This new dining offering will be located in Casino of the Earth, adjacent to Tunney’s other renowned dining offering BALLO Italian Restaurant and across from Frank Pepe’s Pizzeria Napoletana. The 8,100 square-foot space is set to open in spring 2024.

“We are very excited to welcome The Shed to our excellent lineup of dining offerings at Mohegan Sun,” said Jeff Hamilton, president and general manager of Mohegan Sun. “Our friends at BALLO Italian Restaurant are known for delivering fresh, authentic, Italian cuisine, plus amazing service and an incredible atmosphere, so we look forward to expanding on this partnership and experiencing their delicious take on American comfort food.”

“We are thrilled to have another one of our top brands become a part of the extraordinary culinary offerings at Mohegan Sun,” said John J. Tunney III. “The Shed is a concept that has taken off like wildfire in New York, and we cannot wait to bring the experience to our friends in Connecticut. The Shed truly has something for everyone, any time of the day, who comes to visit the exceptional attractions at Mohegan Sun.”

The Shed offers a bright take on American comfort food (including items that are gluten-free, vegetarian, or can be easily modified to be vegan) and features a scratch kitchen with a robust list of specialty brunch, lunch and dinner options—from the indulgent to the healthful. The Shed's enticing dining menus are only made better by the ultra-friendly team and rustic beach-chic ambiance that incorporates warm textured woods, pops of color and intriguing works of art.

Popular menu items include Skillet Mac & Cheese topped with corn, jalapeños, bacon and green onion, Glazed Salmon paired with Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, & shallots, topped with a sweet mustard glaze, and the savory Chicken & Waffles with spicy habanero honey on the side. Gluten-free options include a hearty Breakfast Bowl, complete with two poached eggs, avocado, homefries, spinach, onions, corn, jalapeños and a chipotle hollandaise, Arugula Roasted Tomato Benedict served with delicious home fries, and The Shed Bowl made with roasted chicken, arugula, radish, sweet potatoes, wild rice, sunflower seeds, mushrooms, goat cheese and a spiced honey vinaigrette.

The Shed was established in 2017, and the Mohegan Sun location joins sister locations in Huntington, NY, West Sayville, NY, Plainview, NY and Westbury, NY.
