mizu is easily one of my favorite triad restaurants, and i am amazed that i have not taken the time to review it yet. first of all, a warning: they recently started taking reservations for dinner, and you would be well advised to call ahead and place one before going. there waiting alcove seats about four people, and there are always people milling about as well. they are extremely busy, due to their proximity to wake forest university. however, their food is well worth any wait you may experience. the restaurant has a nice ambiance, with low lighting and dark wood furniture. service is usually good, but sometimes less than great. the real reason to go here is for the sushi, which is the best i have had in the triad. it always arrives chilled to the proper temperature, and the quality is superb. the portions are appropriate for the prices as well. they have a large selection of special rolls, but i often just go for the nigirisushidinner. for non-sushi diners, their hibachi dishes are a cut above the usual. my wife adores their tempura udon as well. overall, i gave mizu a 5 star review even with its occasional service issues, which is unusual for me, but i feel that due to the quality and value provided it is deserved. bonus tip: check out their website for $3-5 off coupons, which greatly enhance the value proposition here.
