What a find!!! Friends invited us and wow never knew about this little gem. Wife and I shared "Love boat" for 2 and was absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and food appeared quickly and fresh, looking forward to going back.

We adore Mizu. We come regularly, and we absolutely love their sushi. We feel so lucky to have such a top-tier, fresh, and consistent sushi establishment, right by our residence. Always delicious.

Overall, a great little restaurant! Sushi was delicious. A little busy on a Sunday night, but the staff and servers were very attentive and helpful. Sushi was delicious and kept well as leftovers for a second dinner the next day! Would definitely try again. The sashimi dinner was an awesome value and great for sharing.

This is hands-down the best sushi restaurant in Winston Salem. They have some very original rolls that are incredible. My favorite is the Hokkaido roll, which has apples in it. Also love the sunrise roll. You can't really go wrong. We've tried at least half the rolls on the menu and have never been disappointed. They do get busy, especially on the weekends. And it does get a bit noisy when the Wake Forest students get rowdy. But the food is worth it. Always fresh ingredients, beautiful presentation and great service. Been coming here for years now, and it has been nothing but consistent from the beginning. Even through the pandemic, they continued their quality through take-out. Here tonight, in person, for the first time in over a year, and all I can say is "Bravo!" Still the best sushi around.

I came at an off hour one day, and food came out super fast. Some.of the best ginger dressing I've ever had for a salad. Really good prices on sushi, which was also good. I got the veggies and tofu entre. Not too salty as some places are, and they had a brown rice option, so it was an overall healthier spot. 100% would come back. Kind service as well.

Food was amazing! We did sit at the bar and they were SUPER busy! Staff had to reach over us multiple times to get sushi from the bar. I HIGHLY recommend this place but I don't know if I would sit at the bar again.

Some of the best Japanese food in town at a very good price. The atmosphere is nice and service is quick and friendly. Very large sushi/sashimi selection with high-quality seafood. Also recommend their bento boxes, which give you a little sample of many of their menu items.

Best avocado rolls anywhere. Best sushi in Winston. Very friendly service. We've done dine in and take out and we're never disappointed. I also highly recommend the spicy tuna rolls and age tofu.
