These offerings include the first Eurasian Michael Jordan Steak House and MJ23 Sports Bar & Grill, along with Minagi, a contemporary Japanese restaurant and Hong Pan, a relaxed dining venue with an array of traditional Chinese delicacies, from Beijing duck to dim sum. INSPIRE is also home to Brasserie 1783, specializing in European-inspired fare and Garden Farm Café, a farm-to-table concept in addition to Chef's Kitchen, a buffet restaurant and open kitchen concept with six live stations.

Each venue at INSPIRE is thoughtfully curated to offer sumptuous culinary journeys, reflecting Mohegan's spirit of hospitality and unmatched attention to detail.
