About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Romantic
Inspired by the wood-fired Robata grills of Japan, Mizu offers a refreshed take on live-fire cooking atop the Hyatt Centric in the heart of Charlotte’s SouthPark neighborhood. Opened in August of 2021 and named one of 2022's "25 Best New Restaurants" and "50 Best Restaurants" by Charlotte Magazine, the rooftop restaurant by Indigo Road Hospitality Group (IRHG) combines the traditions of ancient Japanese cooking with Southern influences and Asian flavors. The kitchen, anchored by Mizu’s own Robata grill, features a seafood-focused menu composed of wood-fired, raw, and chilled offerings.

The beverage program focuses on bright, easy-drinking libations using Japanese spirits and seasonal ingredients, complementing the cuisine and atmosphere. With a chic, minimalist design with natural elements throughout, the restaurant, named for the Japanese word for water, offers sweeping rooftop views from the patio, as well as sophisticated interiors and comfortable lounge and bar seating.

    Mizu was not a good experience. The food was very mediocre and my friend had a gluten allergy that they were not mindful of at all. They served her a role covered in gluten and sauce with gluten in it. I wouldn’t recommend and I wouldn’t go back.

    We all got the chef’s experience last night and were disappointed I’ve tried that in the past and it was amazing but it wasn’t up to the mark yesterday Service was very poor and our portion was too small too Hopefully it’ll get better next time

    If you're looking for a dining experience that combines exquisite flavors with outstanding service, Mizu in Charlotte, NC, is an absolute must visit. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone for a modern, and welcoming, with just the right amount of elegance to make you feel special without being overly formal. The menu at Mizu offers a tantalizing range of options, blending fresh sushi and vibrant Japanese-inspired dishes that burst with flavor. The Iron Man sushi roll was particularly impressive, and each bite of the seabass skewers and the beef tartare was fresh and delicate. However, what truly elevated our evening was the impeccable service we received from Lina, our server. From the moment Lina greeted us, it was clear that she was not only knowledgeable about the menu but also genuinely passionate about providing a personalized experience. She recommended the perfect wine pairing for our meal and was attentive to our needs without being overbearing. Her friendly yet professional demeanor made us feel like VIPs, and her attention to detail was second to none. Lina took the time to explain some of the more unique menu items and shared insightful suggestions based on our preferences. Her enthusiasm and warmth made the night feel even more special, turning an already fantastic dinner into a memorable experience. We left feeling not only satisfied by the delicious food but also grateful for the exceptional service that Lina provided. In short, Mizu is a gem in Charlotte, offering delicious food, a fantastic atmosphere, and top-notch service. If you have the pleasure of being served by Lina, you're in for an extra treat—she truly made the night unforgettable. Don't forget to watch the sunset from their roof top terrace.

    The duck bun were dry and had very little meat on them. Sushi was good. portions were small but advertised as family styles. The crab fried rice had little crab in it and no crab flavor. Only worth it for about 2 people, we had 4. Loved our server and everything else was nice
