Pompeii + Caesar
Classic Italian cuisine at an Indian casino? Yes! Mohegan Chief (Sachem) Uncas believed that his tribe should learn from other cultures. According to the Mohegan Sun Web site, "To honor the ancient Romans, two of his heirs were named after famous Roman warriors: Sachem Caesar/Caesar led the tribe from 1715-1723 and named his own grandson, born in 1719, Pompi/Pompeii." Don't miss the exquisite brunch served here on Sundays. And, here's a great brunch recipe from Pompeii + Caesar: Tuscan Farmer Frittata.

Todd English's Tuscany
Celebrity chef Todd English brings northern Italian flavors to Mohegan Sun in this restaurant ensconced within the rushing waters of Taughannick Falls.

Uncas American Indian Grill
This restaurant replaced the Chief’s Deli and Mohegan Territory restaurants but still serves favorites from both, along with American Indian fare and wood-fired bagels.
