Very good experience! I think free bread would be a nice touch , instead of $10 charge. It should be complimentary for the prices charged for entrees

Ballo used to be one of my favorite restaurants at Mohegan. It was always a little pricey but it was great food. Now it's just ridiculously over priced and you get nickel and dimed. I mean bread is complimentary at any restaurant, not Ballo, it's $10. Whoever heard of getting chicken or veal parm and it not coming with pasta??? If you want pasta, that's $7 extra.

There were four of us who dined last evening. The service was great,our server was professional. It was a good experience overall. The food was good, but small portions.The restaurant charges 10.00 for bread,we didn't mind paying for bread,we expected a nice bread basket. The bread was mediocre, and we expected more for 10.00.

Very very expensive. My meal was very bland. My husband’s pasta was tasty, but stupid expensive. He had pasta, no meat, 30 dollars… super small plate. And they charge you for bread, how about free bread since you get raked on prices. Food was not hot. We have been here a few times, but this time we won’t be back.

Our experience was excellent. Our waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. Comfortable seating. We had entrees and dessert. (plenty of food). Dinner was swordfish with pistachio pesto and was prepared simply and very delicious. Rigatoni with hot peppers and sausage was cooked to perfection, al dente. Dessert was the cannoli box (fresh and delicious) an the Olive Oil cake, so good with a hint of lemon.
