First and last time visiting this establishment. Good looked promising and was a fairly big portion but lacked in quality, the batter on the fish and chips was not that great in my opinion and the service was poor. read more

Great food, lobster bisque was fantastic, blue point clams great, dog fish beer 90 minutes fantastic. 5 minute wait

We ordered some seafood from the Summer Shack. We started off with a dozen clams and a dozen oysters. The raw seafood was good but pricey at $3 per piece. One of the sauces for the raw seafood was a soy sauce with wasabi that I've haven't seen served with clams and oysters before. They had a mix of macro and local craft beers on tap. I opted for one of the rotating beers from Connecticut. It was a double IPA. They didn't have too many taps, but they had a good variety. We also split some fish and chips. It was another good option yet pricey too at $20 for the entree which included only one piece of fish. It came with a great tartar sauce and the fries were perfect - thin, crispy, not overly salted. read more

This place sucks my cousin didn't like the haddock she said it didn't have flavor. The service sucks we waited 20 minutes for the check. Aka worst place to eat at. read more

If you are in the mood for summer favs any time of year check out this place. Spacious and located in the heart of Mohegan Sun. Food and service was ok, but worth a try. read more

Food was subpar . My husband got the chowder which was bland and watery $ 36.00 for a very small hot dog bun with lobster /mayo and potato chips . I opted for a crab cake $18.00 which was dry and tasted bland . Cold slaw was old looking and tasted odd and Caesar salad was dreadful $15.00. Smothered in dressing and 4 croutons and powdered with parmesean cheese . The only thing that was decent were the drinks and service from our bartender. Avoid food and just grab drinks . Sad Summer Shack used to be a food hub , but read that Jasper White is no longer involved in the business. read more

Summer Shack is our go to restaurant when we are at Mohegan Sun Casino. If you only try one thing, make it the warm cornbread with molasses butter. I've fallen in love with this and always order it whether I'm eating at the restaurant, or the quick serve location in the food court. Incredible! Are you a fan of fish and chips? If so, you will love the fish and chips at Summer Shack. Just had it this past weekend and it was some of the best I've ever had. Fresh haddock, battered and deep fried. The edges of the batter were so crispy and delicious. My husband had the seared tuna, which he said was very good. If you are at Mohegan Sun and looking for a good place to eat, Summer Shack won't disappoint. Oh, and try the Scorpion Bowl. Delicious!! read more

Not too impressed for the price, the food was generic but I thought everything was way to much. Personally I feel like it's just an average seafood place. Not saying it's a bad place but just a tad pricy, the service was excellent which does make me wanna go back one day Pictured below was the crab cake blt I had for lunch read more

We have been to the Summer Shack a couple times now and overall, we have always had a good dining experience with them. The food and drinks are good and the service is usually pretty good too. They always have some good specials listed up on the chalkboard, so be sure to check that out. On our last visit, I had the baked shrimp and it was really good. It was stuffed with a crab and lobster stuffing with a lobster sauce. My husband had one of the specials... pan seared tuna, and he said that was good too. There is usually a pretty good wait to get in, so I always call ahead for a reservation. read more

Great food at reasonable price, the place is spacious and service was prompt, in the summer you can eat outside.

Food was terrible sat at the bar, the bartender was friendly but the drinks were basically ice and water at $22 each . My wife and I have been coming here for 12 years this was our last time our bill was $270.00 . read more

I've been going Summer Shack since the day it opened but they've really slipped. I should say the wait staff was quick and helpful and the text via the reservation was perfectly handled. The problem is the food and I am going to focus specifically on the large Clam Belly platter. I received 8 clam bellies for a larger plater which cost 30.00 this was just an outright rip-off. I've seen things slowly decline since I've been going since day one and they just seem to think people will continue to come. They don't even bother to put any specials on the blackboard which kind of made it interesting it wouldn't be so bad but they don't even bother to tell or offer specials. They've stopped serving bread with dinner and this is the case even if you ask for it and the price for the clam bake is now 50.00. Writing this review makes me sad because I actually liked this place at one time. read more

My husband and I finally got back to Summer Shack at Mohegan Sun. We always enjoyed the food and were expecting a great dinner. We were so disappointed with our meal. We ordered a fisherman's platter, There were small fish nuggets, one lonely scallop and a few overcooked shrimp. We also ordered whole belly clams and received small clams and clam pieces. I hope they were just having a bad night but we really don't think we'll go back. That's too bad because it was our go to place. If I had to say anything positive, the service was ok and the salads were good. T. G. read more

Just wonderful. I love seafood!! Ate here on New Years Eve and such a wonderful time. Great atmosphere, wonderful people, excellent food. I don't normally say this, but that butter they give with that bread is really good. read more

We always love the freshness of seafood at summer shack and the different options offered here. We celebrated my husbands birthday here this year and the service was great. We got our booth with two people and the waitress was very fast. We got a free birthday cake for him. The trick is to go for an early dinner as they do get very busy on weekends especially if there's a concert going on at the casino. read more

NOT the best experience here today. I spoke to the original server about my lobster roll.....and he (Moe) didn't even say anything about it to the manager. About half of the lobster meat was SUPER, SUPER chewy. As an experienced restaurant worker in both BOH and FOH....Im almost positive that the lobster was cooked at least 2 days ago. However, some of the best house chips in the area!!!! Really shocked about that he didn't even speak to the manager about the lobster roll though (especially at $28!!!) because there was only ~5 customers here! Usually when a guest is ready to close out, THAT is when the "best customer service" happens so they can pretend to be good and increase their tip. Unfortunately, the best service was when I first sat down......although I did feel rushed to order a drink. In their "defense" it was during a shift turnover so that may have accounted for SOME of the service issues; nonetheless, still should NEVER happen as such. I've been coming here almost every time I'm in the casino, but will I return here, not without something being done. Over the last 5-7 years, I've noticed a significant decrease in food AND service. My ears and mind are open.....I hope to hear from you soon!!! read more

Ordered the Lobster mac and cheese for $36. Regular restaurant wait time. Friendly servers and hostesses. The mac was decent. Plenty of lobster that was very good. The Mac itself just didn't blow me away. They use shells (like mini stuffed shell kind of pasta) that I feel didn't do a good job in the dish as a cavatappi would. Cheese sauce was kind of bland and runny. Breadcrumbs on top we're good. I have previously ordered the fish sandwich that is usually excellent and will be getting that again next time. Overall I like the vibes. Usually a great place to get an excellent meal, but Mac was lacking. read more

We came from Arizona for a conference and the organization brought us to this restaurant. We had a conference meal at the Summer Shack this evening with a large group. This restaurant had lots of space and fun decor, friendly staff and lots of local and fresh varieties of seafood and other items. Staff were super nice and attentive. Restaurant was clean and great for casual meals. Priced competitively. read more

Two words: WOOD-GRILLED LOBSTER. I'll count the hyphen as one word. My parents' favorite place at Mohegan. Their lobsters are 100% fresh, as you can see they have a mini marina in the front. What more could you want other than a lobster bib, a can for your shells and a 2 lb lobster wood grilled to perfection. Summer Shack knows how to make a lobster, whether its a clam bake or an roasted (the other two options). However, I would highly recommend you pay a little more for the wood-grilled option.The shell tips of the lobster are a little singed, but the meat is perfectly stuffed and ready to be plucked off the shell for a juicy good time. To be honest, I haven't tried anything else here besides some oysters and soups, but I already know my tunnel vision has picked the best entree I could possibly get. That's not to say Summer Shack doesn't have an extensive menu, they do and they have daily specials with all types of seafoods. So definitely take the menu out on a date, but in the end be sure to marry the wood-grilled lobster. The lobster comes in 1lb, 1.5lb and 2lb varieties and they all depend on the price and season. The 2lb wood-grilled runs about $48-$50. They also have a bar for you to just sit back and relax and the spacing is terrific for larger families/groups. read more

This place advertises as a seafood mecca but the seafood is just okay, service is just okay and the price is just okay but the atmosphere above par. Too many other choices and food is not why I would come here. My fish tacos were small, dripping in excessive slaw juice and barely edible. read more

I wanted to like summer Shack a lot more than I did. I have never been to the one in Cambridge but I expected top quality seafood with a little innovation. There isn't much here exciting and if it is you can bet it ain't that great. I ordered the crabcakes which were purported to have no breading but were in fact almost ALL breading. They came with an inedible mound of undercooked beans. I sent that back. I also had the lobster potstickers which were ok but not mind blowing. The star here is really any seafood that you just get plain. The shrimp cocktail and the crab were both nice. But that is easy, that should be a given. My sister is on a special diet and they happily made concessions for how she wanted her food. Although it was a little weird how we kept telling the waiter she couldn't have oil at all and he would suggest things that didn't fit the bill. Next time I am at Mohegan I will be at Bar Americain. read more

I came here as, ok let me be super honest, a third option, the celebtate my birthday as the first 2 places we tried weren't open yet. I was pleasently surprised at everything. It has been years since i have gone here and thw past time I was here I wasn't too thrilled so I was skeptical to say the least. First of all, our server was AWESOME!! We had a party of 5 people, one being out 9 year old daugter and he made he feel like a queen; treated her like a little adult, which of course she ate right up! Our food on the whole was cooked perfectly, except of course the fish chowder which was more like salt chowder. My mom and I both ordered it we were both so turned off by it. He was so gracious, and didn't even miss a beat, even said something like, 'oh I should have warned you about that.' Took them both off the bill and we ordered something else which came out lickety split. He took note it was my birthday and brought out, free of charge, a cute little ice cream sundae complete with a candle! I couldn't have been more suprised! This may be one of the original restaurants of Mohegan Sun, but it is still tried and true, and going strong. You will not be disappointed. read more

Great environment but loud music. Ribeye with fried potatoes only $48.00 Choose wisely bad choice on my part. Waitress appeared annoyed and rushed Seafood portions are better and delicious read more

It was pretty to look at from the outside, but that was about it. We had a party of six and a few of us wanted to eat healthier so we decided on seafood instead of going to Michael Jordan's Steak House for steaks. Came in, first impression was it looked nice. Sat down at a table in the corner and it was a good, comfortable setting. We were seated and given our menus. We sat there for maybe 15 minutes before someone came and asked us if we wanted any refreshments. 15 minutes??? Really? We of course started off with appetizers and drinks. After we ordered them, we got the drinks semi quickly but the appetizers took forever to be prepped. We got the mussels, cherry stones, calamari and oysters. The garlic mussels were disgusting. The calamari was too heavy on the grease and oily... but it was good. The prices were NOT parallel to the quality and taste of the food. More than anything, the service was quite slow and lackluster. For such an expensive restaurant, I expected bigger servings and better tasting food. We didn't get much (appetizers only) and it came close to 100 dollars. I left feeling very unsatisfied and elected to go to Michael Jordan's Steakhouse instead. read more

When we go to Mohegan, we never miss stopping in on 'the Shack. Never had a bad meal there. Once shared a 3 lb lobster as an appetizer. G'o ahead - treat yourself. If you want the best hot lobster roll south of Maine, go to the Shack Express (downstairs across from Pepe's). They give you a little cup of butter and you can put as much as you want. Upstairs they do it for you (you can always ask for more). read more

We stumbled across Summer Shack and checked out the menu from the outside. Overall a small menu, but specific to mostly seafood. We were very promptly greeted by a very cheerful hostess with a huge smile. She escorted us to the table and Carl was our waiter. Boy did he make the experience great. He was a great waiter, suggested and helped us with food choices and explained and answered all questions about the menu we had, since we had all never been there before. He was HYSTERICAL and made our entire experience better. I checked in on YELP and got a free cup of clam chowder to which Carl replied "you are one of THOSE people!" ha! I died laughing, I can take a joke all in good fun. The clam was just mediocre, thank god it was free. I like chowder a little thicker in consistency, but that is my own thing- however it was loaded with clams. Not the worst chowder ever but not the best either. We also got the chili wings, those were decent and very juicy not well done which was great. My husband got the hot lobster roll ( I do not eat seafood ) and he said it was good, the portion was a little small for $24 but he did like it. The cheeseburger I ordered was DELISH. VERY juicy and NOT overcooked, which in my eyes is great. I hate ordering medium rare, but when you get it the burger is MW and barely edible. I did order the cheeseburger which said "cheddar cheese" but I am sure I did not get cheddar (see picture) who cares- it was good and I don't send food back. I would return, just based on the service alone. Carl was a good waiter and the food was decent. I do not eat raw bar items, seafood but I can say that what I did have from the menu was delish. read more

It was below average. We all got the fish tacos had them broiled instead of fried they were over cooked we ordered potstickers to start. They came after we received the tacos. Meal was below average.

Great restaurant! I love stopping in here when I'm at Mohegan Sun! I had lots of oysters as an appetizer and I must say that they rival some of the best that I've had even at Martha's Vineyard! The oysters were a bit pricey at $2.75 each but it is in the casino so it wasn't totally unexpected. The atmosphere is laid back, casual, and fun! They were playing Peter Gabriel's music while I was dining which was great since I was going to the concert that night! For my entree, I had fried whole belly clams and they were in my top 5 for fried clams for sure! They were succulent and tender and flavorful. I definitely enjoy going to the Summer Shack and I will be back!! read more

Went to the Summer Shack today for an early lunch before heading home. We had a disappointing dining experience. We sat at the bar, so our server was attentive. However, the shrimp cocktail was inedible-so dry, seemed like it was very old. And the clam chowder was mediocre , at best, with rubbery clams and potatoes that were hard. I had a special. Mahi Mahi BLT with chips. It was really, just okay. My husband had scrod and again, the fish just didn't seem to be that fresh. We won't be back. read more

Summer Shack - Dry shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Uncasville, Connecticut

I had much higher expectations for this place and was a little disappointed that overall the meal was really just alright. Came for lunch and didn't have any issues with our reservations. The menu was much smaller than expected and the overall options were just eh. I had the fish soup (interesting, but I'd go for the Chowder) and the fish sandwich. I also shared the squid which was delicious, but barely enough for even one person to enjoy. The fish sandwich was alright, a very big piece of fish, but again, just mediocre. The entire meal was alright, but for a group of 9, we got our food pretty quick. Service was alright, which really just sums up our entire meal. For this kind of experience, I'd go down to the food court location and just grab a quick bite there instead. read more

Food is always good as is the service. My favorite option at the casino. Highly recommend.

My in-laws brought us here the the afternoon before Thanksgiving....we all had the clam bake (except my MIL, who had Salmon), I had ordered 2 oyster shots as well. OMG!

We liked this place. It was a Saturday night so there was a wait. We ordered drinks at the bar and stood off to the side while we waited for our table. We each had the rum punch which was $12 each, but when we sat at our table and ordered 2 more rum punch they were $15 each......the food was good. They brought rolls and corn bread with whipped butter. I appreciate the whipped butter, rather than a hard lump of cold butter that won't spread so that's a plus. We had the haddock sandwich and crab cake BLT. Both came with freshly made potato chips and a pickle. We enjoyed the food. read more
