Mizu Japanese Restaurant

Visited on a Friday evening. It's a small place. We had not made reservations, nor do I know whether they accept reservations. It was our first visit and we were a party of three. We were advised it would be about 20 minutes, and it was just slightly more than that. No sophisticated method of taking names and notifying you when your name comes up. You just have to come back and ask whether your name has come to the top of the list yet. There is a poorly-defined waiting area and much congestion around it, the front door, and the cash register.
In addition to table seating, one can sit at the sushi bar and eat while watching the chefs prepare both the sushi and the other entrees. It was pretty amazing watching the three chefs get along so well in a tiny, open kitchen space.
That said, everything else was wonderful. It's a very extensive menu and some wonderfully unique specials. From what I could tell on this one visit, the ingredients were fabulously, the menu offerings were both routine and inspired, and the food was attractively displayed and served. When member of my party had the combo platter with scallops and chicken. It was pretty good: the quantity was excellent, it was delicious,, and the appearance was very good. The two other members of my party had a tempura sushi. We planned to split one roll, but it It was so good we ordered a second. The house salad had fairly routine ingredients, but the ginger dressing is remarkable.
I'd like to go back several more times just to sample more items.

Great service. Sushi was delicious and really good lunch prices. Will definitely go back soon

Delicious food! Tonight we had the chicken lettuce wraps, Pad Thai with chicken and the Volcano Roll! The sushi was the best we have ever had! The service was excellent! I highly recommend Mizu for sushi lovers!

Listen, these are the best sushi rolls in Winston. The issue is that the menu is too large and allows one to get down a rabbit hole of so so food. Stick to the specialty rolls that have no fruit or fruit sauce. Castle roll, foxy lady roll, Chilean sea bass roll, wake forest roll. All good choices.

Finally, the staff is incrediby kind and it makes a strip mall sushi stop more than it is

This strip mall gem is one of my favorite restaurants in all of Winston. Easily the best sushi around, but the entire menu is top notch. Always great service as well. Environment lends itself perfectly to either a casual lunch or a romantic date night. Highly recommend!
