    Front entrance

    Upon entering Mizu Japanese restaurant, my husband and I waited a couple of minutes until an employee greeted us and walked us to a table. The restaurant did have a sign that said that they are hiring additional employees, so maybe they are understaffed. The top of the table was a little dirty from a previous customer. Our waitress was very friendly, and she quickly brought out our appetizers and entrees. Here are my reviews for the foods: Side salads - 4 stars - The salads tasted good, but they contained way too much dressing. After we ate the lettuce, we had deep puddles of dressing on the bottom of the bowls. Side soups - 4 stars - These clear soups tasted good and contained a small amount of vegetables. Tuna sushi - 5 stars - My husband likes tuna, and he said that this sushi could not get anymore tuna-like. Vegetable hibachi - 4 stars - The vegetables included carrots, onions, peppers, broccoli, zucchini, and mushrooms, and I liked the taste of the sauce. My side of white rice was cooked well. Chicken katsu - 5 stars - My husband described this entree of breaded chicken as "really good" and "so big".

    Vegetable yakisoba

    I've had my fair share of yakisoba. My husband has been to Japan itself and enjoyed this dish. I will say with high confidence that we did not get the dish we ordered. Their version of yakisoba consisted of boiled chicken, steamed ramen noodles, and steamed vegetables tossed in a "sauce" meant to emulate the yakisoba flavor. The issue with this, starts with the noodles, then the way it should have been cooked. You can't just use whatever noodles you have on hand - you need soba noodles. Then the point of yakisoba is that the dish is fried in a wok. The dish tastes best when all ingredients enjoy this method of cooking, and that wok-fried flavor meshes with that texture. The sushi did not redeem them either. I ordered an eel special role, and was left wanting. It tasted more like sugary sauce than actual eel. They definitely skimped on the meat as well regarding this. I believe we had the dragon roll, where there should have been a mixture of salmon and eel, with avocado, covered in eel sauce. It was worth it to try this dish, but sadly, we will not be back.

    We went here for dinner and we're surprised by the portions. Whether it's a combo plate or sushi roll order, it's a lot of food for each order. So, order one or 2 things first as you might be too full for more LOL. Great food and wonderful wait staff. Very clean and affordable. Check it out!

    Sushi and sashimi

    Great place for sushi! We go here almost every week. The fish really fresh and the staff are nice!

    Ordered dinner through Grubhub. This is NOT real Japanese food. Rice were super dry and not Japanese style. Deep fried sushi was SOGGY, they didn't poke holes to release air on container.

    I have been to multiple Japanese restaurants around the area, but Mizu Japanese restaurant have offer the best experience in terms of service and food quality. The servers there are really polite and patient when explaining the food choices they offer. I ordered a Love Boat for Two and maitai. The sashimi were fresh and everything was beautifully displayed. It was an incredible experience and I couldn't ask for more. 10/10, would definitely be back in the future.

    This place is definitely a hidden jem. I was mind blown be the flavors. And I have been their 3 time and have yet to have bad service. Good food + Good service = happy customer. Good atmosphere ,If you want some good sushi, noodle or just a dessert with bubble tea, try them...it's worth it. Sushi can only be so good this far from the ocean. Mizu is about as good as it's going to get, which is saying a lot. Food is wonderful,service is polite and attentive and you always get your food in a timely manor. Can't ask for more. The fry cheese cake dessert was a perfect ending to my meal.

    Spicy Salmon Roll and Youngstown Roll

    An extensive selection of rolls as well as drink options. The prices were quite reasonable, and happy hour has nice discounts. The food was delicious, and the service was good as well. We will absolutely be back to this place.

    California Roll and Youngstown Roll - Two of my favorites at Mizu!

    I have a weird thing with the taste and texture of sushi, but have found that hot sushi doesn't bother me and I can really enjoy it. Does anyone know if this place has deep fried rolls and what they are? The online menu isn't very clear on that.

    Yes there are a few options. American dream roll and crazy roll are.

Their entire bill came to $221, $27 of which is the mandatory tip. They all hand their cash to one boy to pay the bill and he inadvertantly put all of the cash in the bill folder. They gave the waitress a total of $310 dollars. She took the money, left and came back with the receipt, but no change. The kids didn't know what to do when and were reluctant to confront the waitress so they came to the parking lot to get me. I spoke with the manager, explained what happened and asked how to fix the problem. The waitress automatically goes off in Chinese for six solid minutes, yelling at the manger. He then looked at me and said she claimed the kids gave her exact change. I can tell you she was lying because she got the exact total wrong then corrected herself. Then she quoted the next amount which ended in an odd number, saying that's what the kids gave her. All the kids gave big bills, no $1 were given. That's the second lie. The manager said he would review the camera footage and get back to me. He didn't. I called him the next day and 430pm and he said he was too busy to look at it. I got him to look at it while I was on the phone. He did. Twenty minutes on hold and he came back and told me that the cameras stopped working at 604, which happened to be right before the kids paid the bill (odd), and he didn't see the kids transaction or what the waitress did with it. Either the waitress went all oceans 11 on the $87 overage, or she split it with the manager I say. Bottom line. At best their wait staff takes advantage of people, at worst they're theives. Either way, they'll never get a another dime out of me or the parents of the 9 other kids families. Seems to me like it would not be worth $87 but I guess it is to them.

    A Beautiful Atmosphere and Outstanding Service for a Truly Special First Visit:…read more My first visit to Mizu Restaurant in Niles, Ohio was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, I was impressed. The restaurant was absolutely immaculate. Everything looked spotless, polished, and well cared for, which immediately gave me a great first impression. You can tell they take pride not only in their food and service, but in the atmosphere they create for their guests. One of the first things that caught my attention was the beautiful wall of water with bubbles in it. It was such a unique and eye-catching feature, and honestly it set the tone for the whole evening. It gave the restaurant such an elegant and relaxing feel. I absolutely loved it. It added a calming, almost upscale touch that made the whole place feel special without being stuffy or uncomfortable. The ambiance was another standout. The lighting was low and warm, which made the restaurant feel cozy and inviting. The music was also at the perfect level -- low enough that you could actually enjoy your conversation, but still there to add to the mood. They had popular music playing, and it blended in so well with the overall vibe of the restaurant. Everything about the setting felt balanced, comfortable, and thoughtfully done. What really made our first time at Mizu memorable, though, was the service. The wait staff was amazing. Our server was attentive in a way that felt natural and genuine, never forced. I never once had to ask for anything because he was always right there when we needed him. Drinks were taken care of, questions were answered, and every need we had was met almost before we even had to mention it. That level of attentiveness can completely change a dining experience, and in our case, it absolutely did. What stood out most was how the staff made our first visit feel truly special. There is a big difference between simply being served and being genuinely taken care of, and that is exactly how we felt here. We felt welcomed, appreciated, and comfortable the whole time. For a first-time visit, that means a lot, because it instantly makes you want to come back. Mizu Restaurant gave us more than just a meal -- it gave us an experience. Between the immaculate cleanliness, the stunning water feature, the relaxing ambiance, and the outstanding service, this place left a lasting impression on me. It's not often that a first visit feels this complete, but Mizu really delivered in every way that mattered. I would absolutely recommend Mizu Restaurant in Niles to anyone looking for a place with a beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, and a dining experience that feels a little extra special. Our first time there was memorable for all the right reasons, and we will definitely be back.

Sushi sounded good and that's how I found Hanami Express. I ordered online from the extensive lunch menu. Most entrees were around the $8 -12 range. I opted for a three roll sushi special ($14.95) and the lunch hibachi salmon ($12.25). I'll start with the positive - there is a drive thru which makes pick up a breeze. I ordered the Philly roll, a Boston roll and the tempura shrimp roll. The presentation was pretty much what you find with grocery store sushi to the point of the tempura shrimp almost looked unappetizing. I'm never one to shy away from cream cheese but the strip of cream cheese in the Philly roll was overpowering. The soup had some mystery white stuff floating on top. My husband ate both bowls of our soup. The hibachi salmon was as underwhelming as the sushi. Two small pieces of extremely dry salmon with a serving of bland mixed veggies. I ordered steamed rice and it came with fried rice instead - not a biggie but still... Even the fortune cookies were a disappointment. Mine was broken into a bunch of pieces and both were stale. We're going to a catered dinner tonight - at least today will not be a total loss for my taste buds.
