After an adventure travel day that involved flash floods, ground stops, falling trees, chainsaw and a tractor I was just looking for someplace quiet, close and light and Mizuki came up a half mile from the hotel. Nice little place hid in a strip mall. You order at the counter and they will bring it to ya. Seems most business is carry out as that was very brisk. Service was very friendly. Neat little place. The miso was out immediately while they made the poke bowl. The soup was tasty with quite a bit of seaweed. The poke bowl was a nice size and was as tasty as it was pretty. They have fountain drinks and some bottle drinks. I needed water to hydrate after the day's adventures. Definitely someplace to put on my will return list if I am back in the area. read more

Tried this place last minute for lunch. For a walk in strip mall place, the prices seemed really high. I ordered the Salmon & avocado poke for $17.07 and it turned out to be mostly rice and very little avocado. read more

What an amazing find! I originally intended to grab some tacos next door, but they were closed. So, we decided to come here instead, and let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised! The food was incredibly tasty, and the prices were unbeatable. Unfortunately, they're currently not serving sushi due to short staff, but I highly recommend giving this place a try. The dishes were delicious, served quickly and were budget-friendly. read more

Updated to remove my outdated photos of the menu. Still love this place! Still consistent, good food.

We were out shopping and were starving so we decided to stop in here for some lunch one day. What a nice choice! I had the poki bowl which was fresh and tasty, and my boyfriend had one of the chicken dishes. The food came out quickly and his was nice and warm. My only reservation was that my poki bowl had a ton of rice and not nearly enough other "stuff" like you normally get (more veggies, seaweed salad, etc) some some bites were literally just rice. read more

Ordered three of the four special rolls- Eel Dragon Roll, Super Crunch Roll, and Tiger Eye Roll. All three were well made and hit the mark for taste, but they were extremely small for being 14.95 each. If the rolls were bigger, we would absolutely return read more

What a neat little surprise to find buried in a strip-mall. Food was fresh, seasoned well and high quality. Excellent value in terms of quality, quantity and price. Clean dining environment and peaking back into the kitchen everything was orderly and organized. There was not chaos. This is a great dine in or grab n go place. Looked to be family owned and operated. I'd absolutely recommend read more

How is this place not packed? For sure for of the best Asian cuisine in town. My wife and I got the hibachi. We will for sure be coming back read more

Amazing POKE Bowls , amazing rolls, and you have to try the habatchi bowls. Me and my family eat here for lunch every week. They always remember us and it's always extremely clean. Best authentic japanese food in town! read more

Too much food, but that's typical with Bento box lunches. I ordered the sesame chicken, which was fine but too sweet with the sauce. Absolutely nothing wrong with the preparation, I just forgot that it's a sweet dish, and I lean towards savory dishes. The California roll has perfectly ripe avocado. I wish it had tobiko. The two dumplings had good flavors. The Bento box also had an egg roll, which I felt wasn't needed in the box, plus it was more of a Chinese egg roll. The salad was nicely chilled. I always enjoy the dressing on the salad. This place is along the lines of a fast food joint but with well-prepared dishes at reasonable prices. You get your meal pretty quickly. A few people came in for take out orders. Next time I go, I'm going to try one of their poke bowls. read more

Fantastic! Uber-clean!! Super fresh sushi & delicious hibachi. Stopped here as it was convenient & man, were we surprised to find AMAZING food in a SUPER CLEAN environment...this is going to be a new "regular" for us. Also fair prices, I'll always pay a little more when the quality is there....but these prices were similar to all other sushi places we've tried and superior quality (must mention our other go-to "umaii" as it's on the north end in porters neck - so depending on your location either of these is a solid choice). Vegan options & non-sushi options available. Attentive & professional service! read more

Stopped by for lunch here because I didn't know if I wanted sushi or hibatchi.. they have a pretty good menu with poke bowls, bento boxes, sushi, hibatchi and more! I went to register and ordered and paid. Then I sat and she brought my food to table when it was ready. I could not believe the size of the shrimp! I even got a white sauce! If wanting more sauce it's .50 each so I made due with what I had. It was really good. Wasn't very crowed at all.. has about 10-12 tables inside and only 4 other people were eating in. The couple next to me had miso soup which I love!! Looked pretty good too! I'd like to come back try few new things.. read more

Tonight's meal was not good. My son and I stopped in for something really quick before a show. I ordered a chicken hibachi salad and he ordered the steak and chicken hibachi. It came to $29.00. My salad was literally just lettuce with chicken on top of it covered in oil. The bottom of the salad bowl had a liquid that wasn't a suave. My stomach automatically started hurting because I am not used to eating things with oil other than EVOO. My son's hibachi was just so blah and average. I don't how these two items came to $29.00. There are other local places that are heavenly with half that price for really great quality. The manager did give us some watermelon for free which was nice but it was so overpriced for the mediocre quality. read more

We usually do take out and it's easy to order, always ready fast, and the food is always hot and fresh.

We decided to try this place because of the good reviews. I was craving crab rangoons. Plus, this looked like it would be fast and it was. We went with the crab rangoons, hibachi shrimp and General Tso's Chicken. Everything was good but the Tao's could have been spicier. There was plenty of chicken but I wanted more broccoli. Same with the hibachi - needed more veggies. It's not a fancy place but I'd come back for fast takeout again. read more

It had been awhile since we visited Mizuki Japan so tonight we went with a full spread. You can find them across the street from the large "bullseye logo" store on New Centre Dr. Always fresh ingredients...always simple, quick and delish!

Loved the chicken steak hibachi. Sesame chicken was also very good. The staff is very nice and they keep the restaurant very clean

This is one of the best Japanese restaurants in town. The kids enjoyed the chicken and noodles. I had the hibachi chicken. It was good but the fried rice had an after taste. The white sauce is 50 cents per additional cup and was tasty but a bit on the watery side. We ordered the two entrees and an order of vegetable spring rolls. Our order was approximately 30.00. Seems like the prices have gone up, this is my first time eating here since Covid so it's been a few years. read more

Always consistent with the food but if you get mixed vegetables with your hibachi ask for no cabbage or that's all you will taste.

We went in a party of three for lunch hours. Two of us got the hibachi chicken lunch special with fried rice, and the other got orange chicken with white rice. We also got the lunch sushi of the eel cucumber and the salmon cream cheese rolls to share among the three of us. While the food was just your usual hibachi and sushi, it was very delicious and well cooked. Also I was surprised with how much I liked the salmon cream cheese roll, as it usually isn't my most desirable type of sushi. I also found the food to be pretty affordable. I do have to warn, however, there is very little seating. We were lucky enough to get the only outdoor table as there was a bit of a line, so you might have to just eat in your car or just get takeout. I noticed that there were tables that were put out of the way, so the small amount of seating may be due to social distancing measures. Nonetheless, all three of us enjoyed our time, and we would love to come back next we are in Wilmington. read more

I got the salmon bowl and it was SO GOOD! I normally don't like seaweed salad, but it tasted so fresh here.. the restaurant is kept very neat and clean and the staff was incredibly friendly. I would definitely go back, the poke was the best I've had in a very long time! read more

I recommend this place!!! Best take out! They have my food ready fast and hot! I love there Crab Raggons and egg rolls in town.

We've been here four times now, and each time is the same, excellent! The place is super clean, the staff are very friendly and the food is fantastic. For the person who said, "The last thing Wilmington needed was another Japanese/Chinese/hibachi/sushi place, and this one isn't any better than the other 100 that we already have." I say, this is so much better than many we've tried. If you don't like all these places then don't go! The last time we got food from here, we also picked some up to drop off for our daughter. She also loved the food and will be passing the good review on to her friends. You guys are the best. Definitely one of our new favorites! read more

Upon entering restaurant it's very clean and bright. Easy ordering prices reasonable ordered hibachi and a sushi roll. Going home to eat then finish review... Ok after eating my meal I can say it was really good . Ate my sushi roll up 1st. Eel was fresh rice was cooked good. I ate it all and it was enjoyable. My salad was next crisp fresh salad which I love, only thing I can say it ginger dressing was very watery, but I drank it up lol. The hibachi shrimp was good too not my all time fav but I would order it again very filling only could eat half, but will definitely eat the rest later. Also had the miso soup which was pretty good too. Overall a great place to go for quick meal read more

I had seen it several times in passing on my way home or on the way to work and kept telling myself I should try it. After several months of Covid temporarily shutting down many restaurants, I had been craving Chinese or Japanese or any form of Asian cuisine. I finally took the opportunity to try them as soon as they were back open. I'm sad I waited so long before, because the food is excellent! The hibachi chicken and shrimp is my go-to order. The shrimp is cooked perfectly and everything isn't swimming in a sauce. Its a very good balance of protein, vegetables, and rice! I have also tried their sushi, which is good as well! Definitely recommend. read more

This may seem like a biased review because I work here, but the food at this establishment is delicious. I ate there 4-5 days a week, and it is always delicious. My favorite is the Steak Hibachi with white rice and vegetables. Though, I often get the Gyoza too! The entire restaurant is entirely clean, and the whole kitchen is in view of the customer so they can see how clean it is. We have MANY regular customers, the bosses are super friendly, and the food is all made to order. Everything we make is fresh and it helps add to the deliciousness of the food. :) read more

My favorite restaurant around. I have yet to order something here I don't like. Good pricing too

Quick service, friendly staff and great food!! Haven't had a poke bowl in a hot minute and I'm happy to say this is a fantastic spot!

The Food here is amazing, cleaning tasting and it's very fulfilling! Every time we visit Wilmington we always eat there.

Ok their food is good ! I love the steak noodles my favorite. But restaurants normally give you one white sauce for free , but they got mad when I said y'all normally give one free ! I could tell the cooks was talking shit lucky I couldn't understand ! Oh well .. I understand things are goin up but 50 cent for some white sauce ?! Every where else I go to like hibachi had the pump and u can get how much you like ! Rude asses ! read more

Great little place. I'm new in town and was next door at Target. The menu is small but has all the comfort foods you'd look for in a Japanese "fast food" place. Gyoza, edamame, sushi, and Hibachi. I just wanted a quick lunch so I went with steak hibachi. It came with grilled veggies and fried rice. It was cooked great. I always worry that my steak is going to be chewy but this was not. Everything had a really nice flavor. The veggies had a good crunch. I'm glad I found this place. I know that it's going to become a favorite, especially since my new store is right across the street. read more

I love the food,they always clean after people leave a table,and great service I am especially obsessed with their hibachi chicken

We ordered take out, the current only option. It was ready in 15 minutes, 40 min faster than a nearby Asian restaurant. The staff was friendly and the food was fresh. It was certainly not the best best but a solid B. The specialty rolls were above average and the eel roll was below average. Be aware that the pictures of the menu seem outdated and we ended up paying about 20% more than expected. read more
