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.

    Will never go back. Terrible service from hostest, and bar. Left waiting for over thirty minutes for our table and don’t think we would have been seated if I didn’t go enquire what was going on. That whole time sitting at the bar waiting couldn’t get as much as a look from any of the bartenders. Servers were good. Food tastes like it was out of the frozen food section in the supermarket with some sauce poured on top.

    Everything was over cooked. The beef skewer was not tender at all, very chewy. Ate half. Panko chicken crust was flavorful but again it was overcooked. Left half. Parking was a major pain.

    Service was ridiculous. We came in for restaurant week, one of my guests ordered three items off the regular menu, and received all three before we received our appetizer. When we asked the server to slow down, she just giggled. Very bizarre. In addition, the FOOD WAS SOOOOOO SALTY! I cringe when I think about it as I write this review. This party of five won't be coming back.

    First time dining at Mizu (during Charlotte restaurant week)…and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Great table by window overlooking SouthPark. Party of four; two of us ordered from the prix fixe menu and two ordered from the regular menu. Drinks and wine were excellent. We had a few appetizers/small plates as well from the Robata grill which were large and flavorful. Our server, Resi, was friendly, polite, and knowledgeable. Her attentiveness definitely enhanced our dining experience! Highly recommended; we will come back.

    The restaurant week menu was fairly good, except for the desserts. It was obvious that dessert isn’t a focus for this restaurant. The star of the meal was the sushi roll - it was delicious. Our server was very knowledgable and helpful.
