If you’re heading to Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut’s Mystic Country, there’s one dining destination that is a sure bet…SOLTORO TEQUILA GRILL. SOLTORO is a tequila lovers dream with approximately 200 different brands stocking their beautifully designed and comfortable bar. You want it, SolToro has it!!! I dined at SolToro last night and it was a phenomenal. From the fast, friendly, unparalled service to the mouth-watering food choices on their extensive menu blending traditional flavor and authenticity with a modern approach, SolToro serves up a dining experience that radiates energy and fun.
My recommendations for an amazing dinner….you have to start with the Guacamole for two (or four if you so desire…trust me, you’ll want more) freshly prepared for you tableside. It is OFF THE CHARTS. I am a big “Guac” fan, and SolToro’s “Guac” rocks! Next we tried the Crispy Duck Tacos and the Grilled Filet Mignon Tacos. These aren’t your everyday tacos! They are perfectly prepared and dripping in nuanced flavor. YUM! We topped everything off by sharing the SolToro Flan. It was so delicious we were scaping the plate to ensure that we got every last morsel.
Oh, and did Imention SolToro’s atmosphere? Rich, hip and sexy! And it’s the perfect place to have a party with plenty of private dining space. For a dining experience that will leave y0u breathless and making reservations to come back again, it’s SolToro Tequila Grill.
SOLTORO TEQUILA GRILL is located on the casino floor of Mohegan Sun’s Casino of the Sky (adjacent to the convention center entrance). For more information and to make reservations, you can visit them on-line at www.soltororestaurant.com or call 860-862-4800.
Cheers Amigos! David

I think it’s an amazing site and I’m proud to be partnering with Kimberly Dawn on this new venture.
The Shadow Room…think chic and trendy Manhattan lounge without all the attitude! That’s what I love about the Shadow Room…in my opinion, the best thing to hit the Connecticut bar scene in years! Owners Nick Cacaci and David Gere have done it right. They’ve taken a fabulous cocktail menu added some a great late night bites and wrapped it all inside an incredibly comfortable and inviting space featuring ever changing art exhibits and some of the hottest DJ’s on the East Coast. The staff is friendly, talented and accomodating and the guests, well, they are alway in a party mood! So, the next time you find yourself in Connecticut make sure to stop by the Shadow Room. Oh, and you have to try a cocktail called “the Grapes of Wrath”…it’s outrageously delicious!
