The property expands its culinary portfolio with bold new concepts from trusted chefs and hospitality leaders
UNCASVILLE, CT (June 23, 2025) – Mohegan Sun, where world-class entertainment, elevated hospitality and so much more come together under one roof, is delivering a fresh take on destination dining with the introduction of four new venues: The Farm Italy, Beauty & Essex, The Shed Restaurant and SIFT Bake Shop & A.T.Y Bar & Bonbons. Developed in partnership with renowned chefs and hospitality experts, these new offerings solidify Mohegan Sun’s status as a foodie-centric getaway. Each has been designed with the modern traveler in mind, blending standout cuisine and striking design, with easy access to nightlife and entertainment just steps away.
“These openings reflect the depth, creativity and ambition we’re bringing to our culinary strategy,” said Jeff Hamilton, President & General Manager of Mohegan Sun. “From a speakeasy-style supper club to a bakery from a James Beard semifinalist, these concepts have added renewed energy to our destination and are giving guests even more reasons to choose Mohegan Sun.”
The Farm Italy: Design-Led Italian Cuisine Anchored by Scratch Cooking
Led by John Tunney and his accomplished restaurant group, The Farm Italy pays homage to traditional Italian aesthetics with sculptural archways, imported greenery and statement lighting that frames the marble-clad bar and colonnaded dining room.
The kitchen is equally impressive: pastas are house-made, sauces simmered from scratch, and dishes like the Pappardelle Bolognese, Branzino and Cacio e Pepe deliver a refined take on regional comfort fare. A specialty cocktail list rooted in Italian tradition delivers options such as the Strawberry Basil Aperol Spritz and Nero Old Manhattan. Reservations can be made at mohegansun.com/farmitaly[MN1] .
Beauty & Essex: Cult-Favorite Supper Club Arrives in Connecticut
Mohegan Sun is the first property outside a major metro area to house Beauty & Essex, the culinary experience from TAO Group Hospitality and Chef Chris Santos. Discreetly hidden behind a working pawn shop, the space opens into a multi-room arrangement where Japanese whisky, vintage guitars, and glam speakeasy energy collide.
The menu showcases globally inspired dishes with a twist, including the Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup Dumplings, Wagyu Steak Tartare and Gochujang Salmon. The cocktail program features playful signatures such as the Ice Spice, featuring Mohegan Sun’s exclusive Patrón Reposado, and Earl the Pearl, a crisp vodka-and-tea infusion that balances elegance and edge. Guests can also enjoy brunch on Saturdays and Sundays, with unique offerings like Red Velvet Waffles and Croque Madame Benedict. Reservations are available up to 30 days in advance at mohegansun.com/beauty.
The Shed: Casual Comfort Food with a Chef-Driven Twist
Now open in Mohegan Sun’s Casino of the Earth, The Shed’s first Connecticut location delivers the ambiance that its fans love most: a bright, beach-inspired setting and a menu that spans indulgent to healthy. Helmed by Chef Roberto Baez, the concept introduces a casual-yet-refined eatery designed for guests seeking a high-quality meal in a laid-back setting.
Designed to meet today’s evolving tastes, The Shed provides a fully customizable vegan menu. Diners can enjoy daily brunch service, featuring crowd-pleasers like Chicken & Waffles with habanero honey and Arugula Benedict with chipotle hollandaise.
SIFT Bake Shop & A.T.Y Bar & Bonbons: Award-Winning Pastries and a Bold New Cocktail Experience
Chef Adam Young, a James Beard semifinalist and Food Network’s “Best Baker in America,” brings his coastal Connecticut cult-favorite bakery, SIFT, to Mohegan Sun. Created with his wife and co-owner, Ebbie Young, the expansion reflects their shared vision of bringing “a little delight to everyone,” a hospitality-first approach that has defined the SIFT brand since the couple opened their first bakery in Mystic nearly a decade ago.
The Mohegan Sun location also marks the debut of A.T.Y Bar & Bonbons, an adjacent boutique cocktail and dessert bar presented by Grey Goose. SIFT’s hand-laminated pastries, including the acclaimed Chocolate Croissant, Opera Cake and Pecan Sticky Bun, are made fresh daily. At A.T.Y, guests can enjoy small plates like a dip trio with toasted baguette, alongside hand-crafted cocktails and chocolate bonbons finished with meticulous detail.

The Iconic Group joins the Sun Patio Concert Series lineup for a night of Unforgettable Music and Summer Fun
UNCASVILLE, CT (June 18, 2025) – Get ready to shake things up as legendary group, Village People, bring the ultimate Disco revival to the Sun Patio at Mohegan Sun on Saturday, July 12th, as part of the high-energy Sun Patio Concert Series launched on June 14th with crowd favorite Rock band Buckcherry. The series continues throughout Summer with more details available HERE.
The show kicks off at 7:30pm and is open to fans of all ages, making it a perfect summer night out for the whole family. Tickets are available now through Ticketmaster, and the Mohegan Sun Box Office. All Sun Patio Concert Series shows are general admission and take place rain or shine! This premier outdoor event space at Mohegan Sun also features a full bar and deck for guests 21+.
The Village People are one of the most talented and well-known Disco groups of their era. Their music is part of the international songbook and their debut album, released in 1977, featured the hit singles “San Francisco (You Got Me)” and “In Hollywood (Everybody’s A Star).”
Village People at that time consisted of only Victor Willis and session singers. Eventually, a group was assembled around Willis to perform on American Bandstand. Thus began the creation of Village People.
The guys were soon an international phenomenon with release of the second album titled Macho Man, once again recorded by Victor Willis with use of session singers. Auditions were held for performers to join Victor however prior to the release of the Macho Man album and many answered the call. Village People were finally a bona fide group.
Next was the five-time platinum album Cruisin which featured the blockbuster hit “Y.M.C.A.” After that was the Go West album, and finally Live and Sleazy. Victor Willis then exited the group but not before leaving them with such smash hits as “Y.M.C.A” “Macho Man” “Go West” “In the Navy” “Magic Night” and “Milk Shake.” Village People have sold over 100 million records worldwide!
