“ This is the best sushi spot ever. Drinks are delicious and so it's the food. Highly recommend! ”

“ Every experience is excellent. Great service, consistent food. Our daughter loves this place as much as we do! Highly recommend if you're looking to explore a new, more authentic sushi house. ”

“ Still one of my favorite sushi spots in the cities! Service is always fantastic and so is the food. You'll pay a little bit for the quality but I honestly think it's worth it. There's plenty of other options other than sushi and it's always a wonderful atmosphere for a date night. Will continue to come back! We balled out on our last visit as we were celebrating our anniversary and with drinks, it came to about $200. Not bad for just getting everything we could possibly want. ”

“ This place is the best sushi restaurant in the Minneapolis surrounding area! Everyone who works there are so kind and helpful. I love the smaller size of restaurant and the open kitchen. The sushi is outstanding! Every year we go for birthday celebrations and I look forward to it every time. ”

“ Love Mizu! Great atmosphere and location right on the lake, plenty of free parking in the garage or along the street. Food is spectacular, prices are high but you get what you pay for. Service has been excellent both times we've been there with all the staff pitching in to make sure guests are taken care of. Great place for an upscale meal, especially if you're celebrating a special occasion, reservations necessary. ”

“ This is the second time we've been. Everything was Castaic - from the service(Nicole was fantastic) to the cocktails, to the food.... All the sushi was wonderful, the cocktails were perfect and our main server could not have done a better job! Cozy atmosphere. Can't wait to go back. Highly refined checking this place out. ”

“ Finally made it to Mizu after hearing great things for years. Booked a sushi bar reservation for our wedding anniversary. Easy online booking. The food was fantastic! We ordered a few things from the happy hour menu and regular menu Philly Roll- love that they used Brie cheese Seaweed salad- love that they don't add cucumbers SASHIMI SAMPLER- 15PC CHEF SELECTION amazing!! Tobiko - Flying Fish Roe with added quail egg WBL Roll- Inside - Tuna, Avocado, Jalapeno, Cilantro, Spicy Mayo, Outside - Scallop, Ponzu, Scallion, Chili Oil, Togarashi- this spice was a little over powering Had a couple hot sakes and Sapporo's with our meal We were seated by the host and given drinks by him but then we're able to order drinks from the sushi chef it was a little confusing. The host did spill a beer on accident but made is right by buying my husband one. The chairs are noted in other reviews and being a smaller person I could see how these would not be comfortable for the average size person. They are hardwood and have a small butt seat. I don't mind the 20% being added to the bill at all! It's brought up right away so no one is shocked. I appreciate the transparency that this is a tip and not some health and wellness bologna that many places in Stillwater and Mpls add on their receipts. Thanks for not making this confusing. Friendly sushi chefs and we made use of the free indoor parking garage on a chilly and rainy evening. Definitely will be back for the patio and more raw scallops. Love all your restaurants! ”

“ My partner and I decided to try this place for our anniversary dinner as we both really love seafood- especially sushi. It is one of the few places in the Twin Cities that has seafood ramen, which we really appreciated because my partner doesn't consume pork or beef but loves noodle dishes. The seafood protein to noodles portion of the ramen was also good. It is also one of the few places that serves uni. It was my first time having uni so I enjoyed the experience even if I think it's not for me lol We really enjoyed the patio facing the lake and walking around the downtown area afterwards. It was pricey but for the quality for what you can get in the area and coming for a special occasion, it was worth trying for us. I hope to try their happy hour in the future! ”

“ Excellent sushi - 5 stars! I had a great experience at Mizu. The sushi was very good. They also have various soups, bowls, a few desserts, specialty cocktails, beer, and a couple varieties of teas. The customer service was first class from beginning to end. The restaurant itself is beautiful. It has a clean, spacious, angular, open vibe to it...lots of light gray colors with wood accents. You get the idea. I could just as well have been sitting at LoLo or Crave. It's the latest look for trendy restaurants. But I like it. Mizu is a bit on the expensive side. I spent 73 bucks for 1 specialty cocktail, 1 hot tea, 2 sushi rolls, and last but not least, one mochi ice cream ball. So with the automatic tip for the whole staff (and my voluntary tip for the server), my modest dinner set me back 100 bucks. On the subject of money, this is one of those new trendy places that charges you an automatic 20% gratuity to support a "living wage" for the entire staff of front line workers. I have mixed feelings about this. Personally, I'd rather pay a higher amount for the food without separating out a woke mandatory fee which lets them take care of the workers with a "living wage". Please, knock off the virtue signaling and just charge me more for the food, and management can figure out staff wages versus other expenses and the owner's profit. That's how every other business on the planet works. Oh, well. I'm not in charge...so fee it is at Mizu. I paid the 20% fee plus I voluntarily added another 25 dollar tip for my server. So...I guess...in the end...I ended up paying 36 bucks for gratuities. Overall, a great first visit. Thumbs up! -Maxx ”
