“ Okay, so I wasn’t expecting to find one of the best sushi spots I’ve ever been to... in a mall. But this is a true hidden Gem in Mohegan sun, so here we are. I stumbled across this place after a long day of roaming, and honestly, it felt like I walked into a completely different world. It’s tucked away just enough to feel exclusive, and the vibe is super calm and classy—think dark wood, soft lighting, and just the right amount of fancy without being stuffy. We were seated at our table by a gentleman who was professional and attentive throughout. The food was delicious, and every bite was perfection. The fish basically melted in my mouth, the veggies were insanely fresh, and even something as simple as the miso soup was next level. You can tell the chefs know exactly what they’re doing—everything felt intentional, from the flavors to the way it was plated. The only thing lacking if I may, I would have liked the portions to be more generous for the price point. The drinks? Also, on point. We had a tequila based cocktail that was light and citrusy and paired perfectly with the sushi. They’ve got a great drinks list too, if that’s your thing. Honestly, I was just impressed. It’s the kind of place you could hit after shopping, on a date night, or even solo. Price-wise, it’s definitely on the upscale side, but for the quality and experience, it’s totally worth it. Highly recommend if you’re into sushi and want something a little more elevated without having to go downtown. Parking for the venue itself was free but I am told it could be paid during events etc at Mohegan Sun. ”

“ I forgot to take a picture of the dumplings, but the food was great! I got the shrimp fried rice but instead of shrimp I substituted with chicken which was not a problem for them. Thanks! ”
“ We were a party of 6 celebrating my youngest daughter’s marriage . From the time we walked in we were greeted with smiles from Jake , the manager and Tiffany our server. All I can say is , if you haven’t been to Tao at Mohegan Sun you are surely missing one of the best dining experiences you will ever have. The food was amazing. You need to try the pork belly , the ribs, the chicken drumettes, the rice , noodle dishes. I mean all of us were blown away. Thank you so much Jake for going above and beyond and for making our evening so memorable. Tao is so fortunate to have someone who treats customers like family. ”
“ This place is absolutely amazing. I'm an out of towner, so thanks for the wonderful experience. The atmosphere speaks positive zen vibes. Our waitress ALISIA was on point!! All of our food came out hot and in a timely manner. The DJ was cool, nice, and low music, just to set the mood. My mother and I had an amazing time. The food was phenomenal, and I absolutely loved the flavor of everything we ordered. ”
“ All I can say is EPIC!!! Service was friendly and quick. Food was so good. The vibe is exactly what you would expect! Truthfully, the hardest and most annoying thing was deciding if we get a second round of food or dessert. ”
“ This Thanksgiving, my husband and I decided to spice things up after our festive dinner, and let me tell you, our choice to visit the spectacular Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino was an absolute game-changer! While we typically trek to the Pennsylvania location, this gem is not only much closer to home but also three times the size—talk about a win! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the myriad of dining options available. One of the highlights of our stay was definitely our experience at Tao. Oh my goodness, what a visual feast! The stunning Asian-themed decor completely captivated me—it felt like stepping into another world. Tao is an upscale dining experience, so I highly recommend dressing up to match the ambiance. And the food? Simply divine! We savored every bite, from the exquisite flavors to the beautifully presented dishes. We ordered the ducked rice and peppered chicken!!! The atmosphere was electric, enhanced by great music and friendly service that made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience with amazing food and a beautiful upscale vibe, Tao is an absolute must-visit. We left feeling elated, and we can’t wait to return to Mohegan Sun for another unforgettable getaway! ”
“ Awesome ambiance!!! Especially for a celebration. I've been here twice now for birthday dinners and one was during Halloween weekend which made it even more fun. Food was very tasty. It is definitely a bit on the pricey side, but you are paying for the overall experience. Great music while you dine! Both times I've visited, the DJ was on point. This place is definitely a vibe for folks who love to listen to good music while eating. Was a great experience for everyone on both occasions. ”
