HIGHLIGHTS: none with food (service & presentation were great though) After hearing lots of hype, we couldn't wait to try Mizuna. We did the tasting menu, which, at $135/person, is one of the more expensive ones we've had in Denver. But for good food, we're happy to pay that. Unfortunately, Mizuna definitely did not live up to expectations. Though the service was terrific and the presentation was really wonderful, every course we had was disappointing. Bland and flavorless, odd combinations--it just didn't hit the mark at all. We were there with friends who own a few restaurants in Denver, who had also heard great things, and we all left scratching our heads trying to figure out why this place has this reputation. Maybe we just happened to be there on an off-night or something, but especially at this price point, we'd have no interest in going back, especially with so many wonderful places in Denver now, like Avelina, Fruition and Rioja. read more

Mizuna - Everything looked wonderful, unfortunately, taste did not live up to appearances - New American Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We were so looking forward to this restaurant. We ordered from the special prix fixe menu. My below experience: PROS Friendly staff. Warm, cozy atmosphere. Excellent service including very knowledgeable wine sommelier. Attractive bar area. Creative menu items and wine pairings. CONS Creative food menu items that failed to deliver. Very expensive for the small portions in a five course menu; we left still hungry. Our biggest complaint was that we never experienced that "wow" taste sensation from any of the courses; very unfortunate. read more

I ordered the Thanksgiving dinner for two which was just about $200. Here's the breakdown: Rolls were like paperweights Salad was like grocery store salad bag Brussels were bitter hard and inedible Mashed potatoes - average Turkey was too dry and tasteless to eat Gravy was also tasteless Lobster Mac was disgusting the sauce was chunky and the lobster was like rubber The "crumble" was a dish of berry soup The ice cream was grainy and even to sweet for me a person who will eat chunks of brown sugar This was the worst thanksgiving food I have ever had. It wasn't worth the price of a happy meal. read more

Mizuna is a jewel. Great food, friendly service and gracious hospitality. It is a must try and not just for special occasions. You'll be delighted. Chef Michael Dunning and Chef Frank Bonanno will amaze you with their creative tasting menus. Can't wait to go back. read more

Went back for the second time now. Still amazing. The valet is still the same happy dude. From the valet to the new staff(to us)to the rest of the staff everyone was great. We were seated inside their semi- private space. The wine room? Surrounded by those bottles.. yummm. This time we went for just an individual dish instead of the tasting menu. I had the Lobster Mac for my appetizer. That was definitely my favorite find this year! Love it! We also had the Escargot. I know it's not for everyone but if you wanna give it a try , you won't regret it at all. Beef Wellington and Guinea Fowl. All were outstanding! But the night really belonged to my Lobster Mac! For drinks I had the Man in Black. It's Buffalo and Trace Bourbon, Cocchi Dopo Teatro ( it's a rare evening vermouth) and Spiced Cherry Bitters. This completes my evening. We skipped dessert and we still got the cutest chocolate on the house! This closed the book for the night. read more

Any French bakery would love to have this chef and this menu. The entire experience was one filled with the pleasure of good food. Everything about the evening was enjoyable. It was a birthday dinner so we probably ended up with a few extras (thinking caviar and other small plates). For the absolute standouts, in order of when we got them: Welcome Drink: they pour you some Brut, but my wife is pregnant and can't drink alcohol, so our waiter mixed my wife a custom mocktail just for her. It had Lavender, lemon juice, cranberry juice, and something for the carbonation. It tasted better than the Brut. Siberian de Luxe Caviar: we were given this with some crème fraîche and puff pastry. This was the start of night and set us off on an excellent night. Bread and Butter: the bread is kind of thick but still fluffy and it's baked with fennel (sounds weird). The hero of this pairing is the butter, I swear that they have a cow out back (they don't have a cow out back) that produces the freshest source for their dairy. That butter is amazing and the fennel in the bread evens out the creamy deliciousness of this butter. If I could, I would give them 5 stars just for the butter. Lobster Mac and Cheese: don't ever not get this if you're ordering the 3 course meal. If you are in a party of two of you, there should be at least half of the table with this. Even without the lobster this dish would still be on this list. Again, that cow out back is giving them the best source of dairy. We wanted to eat everything, but we had snacked beforehand (looking at the reviews about these being small plates). You do not need to, as you can see in my final photo, we have 7 boxes (3 for leftovers, 2 for deserts that we didn't even have a chance to eat, 1 full of cookies, and a small one for chocolates)! This was definitely worth every penny and more. read more

We ventured to Mizuna for a belated birthday dinner (alas, our original plans were thwarted by the snowpocalypse a couple weeks back). The atmosphere is cozy and elegant - comfortable but not ostentatious, and perfect for relaxed, intimate dining. I'd heard good things about their seafood dishes, so opted for the 11-course (!!) coastal menu - which definitely did not disappoint. The seared diver scallops were sweet, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness; it's easy to see why they're a staple across all menus. The Campanelle with butter-poached lobster was equally divine. The Chilean Sea Bass wrapped in roasted savoy cabbage was a delightfully nuanced blend of smoky and salty flavors. And the pastry Grand Dessert somehow perfectly balanced between feeling rich and indulgent, while also being light and airy. Hats off to Chefs Mackenzie Hyde, Frank Bonnano, and Michael Dunning for creating dishes that showcase their individual skills and passions, while also delivering a seamless and cohesive dining experience. Highly recommend. And if you do try one of more extensive 10 or 11 course menus, it's best paired with delightful and hilarious company with whom you can sustain a 2+ hour conversation (because yes, the meal is about that long ). read more

Service 5 stars Cleanliness 5 stars Staff 5 stars Food 4 stars (Read below) Drinks 5 stars I was stuck in Denver for a few days and was looking for a good food experience. Most of the food I had tried while in Denver was meh but it's Covid so I am not being too picky. Mizuna was recommended and I reserved a spot on a Tuesday night. BTW just a heads up it's $75 per person to reserve and $135 for the tasting menu. First impression was really good. The staff was warm and welcoming. I was seated at the bar (my choice as I was alone) and I am really happy that I was there. Jan (pronounced Ya-N) was amazing and a fantastic bartender. The warm towel to start and then an amazing cocktail really kicked off the night well. The wine pairing was extremely good and Jan did a fantastic job explaining the pairings. I would highly recommend getting this with your meal. I had the tasting menu. The food was good and I would highly recommend trying it. However, having eaten at some of the top Michelin Star Restaurants around the world, I don't think Mizuna is quite there yet. I could see them making the Bib Gourmand list, as they did some things extremely well. The first course I was not a fan. It was a cracker and mini gravy. Presentation was spot on but the flavor profile was not what I had hoped. The rest of the meal was fantastic. The scallop was cooked to perfection. The ravioli was exquisite and a beautiful presentation. The Mochi and French onion soup were almost perfect. The French onion soup was a tad salty and the soup was warm but the cheese on top was insanely hot. They need to get the temp right. The Mochi tasted so good but it was too much Nutella and not enough dough. The rest was amazing and presentation was great! I would highly recommend trying this place out! If you are local, buy the sourdough bread to take home. PS I should've taken the photos prior to eating but I wanted to taste everything and the photos were an after thought. The presentation is top notch. read more

Great service!! Excellent and cozy atmosphere to go to for special occasions!! The staff was beyond welcoming!!

Went here for our anniversary last night. Have seen mixed reviews and decided to try it. It was okay. What was good was the wine pairings. The wine was fantastically matched and were delicious with our Coastal Tasting Menu that we selected. The service was good and dishes with wine were paced appropriately. However what could be improved is the ambiance and the food. The food was basic. Nothing exciting or was a "wow" dish. I stopped taking pics due to being underwhelmed. 20years ago these dishes would have been probably great but need to be brought into the current. Again nothing new or inventive to write about. Same for the ambiance nothing wow or special. I don't think we will be back. read more

Service remains outstanding, but food has slipped tremendously. This place isn't even close to what it used to be.

Hip and lovely spot tucked away on a side street. Great selection of food with some exotic choices that would make for a nice date night. Quite expensive though, and while the food was good it wasn't comensurate with the price. Worth trying to judge for yourself. read more

We had a wonderful experience at Mizuna. The dining room is very quaint, cozy, with great low lighting. Our waiter was so kind, attentive, but also didn't rush us at all. We loved this! They spaced out the different dishes perfectly allowing a true dining experience. We opted for the three course meal and everything we ate was delicious. The lobster Mac and cheese is a classic dish for them, and very tasty. They even included Complimentary champagne, muffins, cookies, and chocolates!! read more

Mizuna - Kale salad, lobster Mac and cheese - New American Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Came here for a valentines dinner. Having not been here before I was a bit nervous as you never want to let down your date! When we arrived we were about 20 minutes early. The head of the restaurant led us next door to a sister bar and had us wait while prepping our table. It was the Vespir I believe. Once our table was ready we hadn't finished our drinks yet. The head of house comped our drinks while waiting and led us back. The presentation was clean and crisp. The waiter Jordan was pleasant and playfully hilarious! We started off with the Fois Gras which I wasn't a fan of (not due to flavor, just don't like it!) than we got served a bevy of seared scallops and seaweed bed (delicious smoky flavor) than a nice Chilean sea bass with veg. The buttery taste of the bass was incredible. We also got served a tasty kombucha to cleanse our pallets mid meal which was a nice change of pace! After that we got the dry aged steak and potato pastry. Both cooked PERFECTLY and tasty. The presentation was great! The dessert of chocolate mousse hit the spot! The lavender drink I had was absolutely crisp and sharp with flavor! No negatives here! Worth the price but be prepared to pay a premium! (Worth it) read more

This place is a true gem in Denver. Upon entering, it's quiet and intimate but the upbeat and down-to-earth music with a wide window into the chef's kitchen makes you feel included and right at home. Don't be fooled--this place, while high-end in food, cocktail selection, and drink-fare, is totally welcoming. We sat at the bar and enjoyed some complimentary champagne to start off our experience while Nate, our fantastic bartender told us about the menu and how everything worked. The cocktails were interesting, well-executed and delicious! My sister and I opted for the three-course menu for our first time and selected our items: I chose the famous lobster mac and cheese for my app, the Seared sea scallops for my entree and the warm chocolate cake for dessert. For an extra razzle dazzle, I added the aged Wagyu New York Strip for $55. My sister picked the crab cake, saffron prawns and the banana creme brulee. Along the way, we were treated to additional small plates (two before our app, a watermelon and mint palette cleanser before our main, and a pre-dessert bite). The food was incredible, well-timed, presented beautifully, and we were constantly surprised by how exciting the flavors were. The lobster mac was creamy and loaded with big lumps of juicy lobster, the Wagyu new york strip was pure buttery perfection and cut perfectly even (thanks Vance!) with an incredible demiglaze sauce, and my sea scallops were on a bed of mash with a soft cinnamon flavor that took these scallops to the next level. The chocolate cake was warm and oozed when you cut into it. Nate helped pick a perfectly selected wine for my scallop entree and all in all, we were so floored by the entire experience from start to finish! There was such great attention to detail and I stopped by the kitchen window to say thank you--all of the chefs were so kind! I cannot recommend this place enough if you're looking for an interesting menu with great cocktails and a place that blends the laid back Denver atmosphere we know and love with high end gastronomy that is sure to delight every food-lover! (P.S. we were heading to see a musical after dinner and Nate made sure that we not only left in plenty of time, but he also sent us to the show with a goodie bag of chocolates, housemade muffins and cookies. They were INCREDIBLE! ) read more

We were able to enjoy in person fine dinning for Valentine's Day and it was so wonderful to do so at Mizuna. We felt immediately welcomed and the services was really top notch. Welcomed to a table with bubbles waiting and rose petals - the details have a profound effect on an experience like this. On to the meal - the savory courses were really high quality. Beautiful cuisson and technique. Balanced and thoughtful dishes - mostly pairing classic combinations in elevated ways and lots of attention to detail. Definitely some wonderful luxury ingredients in the meal - but often pairing them with cheaper ingredients is where you could really appreciate the talent in the back of the house. The desserts left something to be desired, which is unfortunate when closing out such a wonderful meal. The wines were very well paired and the pours were more than generous (won't see me complaining about that). Best dish of the night for me was miso cod, collards and maple - a truly elegant and well executed plate of food. Overall it was a very nice dinner worthy of 4 stars. So much was done well but the closing of the meal was a little lack lustre. There is no doubt we will be back, however, my wife noted that when she was enjoying her scallop course. Thanks for making Valentine's special for us this year Mizuna!!! read more

It's been a while since we have been able to enjoy dine in service in Denver. It's now been a few weeks that restaurants have been able to have the service so we went all out and joined Mizuna for dinner. So please excuse the lengthy review. Just plain excited. This is typically one of our favorite restaurants. So here you go: We chose the 3 course meal @ $95/person. Let me just say it was Plenty of food. And we were super hungry when we got here since we were saving room for the goodies and skipped lunch. We had the crab cake, Caesar with crunchy prosciutto, and (of course!) the lobster Mac-n-cheese for apps. The MnC was a bit low of flavor this time, could have used more seasoning, but there was Plenty of perfectly prepared lobster. The main entrees we went with were scallops, duo of duck, and beef Wellington. The scallops were a bit too salty, the Wellington was OK, but the star of the eve was duck. Holly molly! Scrumptious! If we had known it would be so good, we would have ALL ordered it. And this was with our kids because we don't have a sitter at this time (Covid and all that ). We tried all 3 desserts and just were not fans of any of them, mainly because the desserts were too sweet. I know, I know! How dare we! But even my kids didn't like how sweet the desserts were. That tells you something... Frank was the chef tonight and he was out greeting diners and chatting, which was nice. There were plenty of little palette teasers they brought out between courses that were wonderful. The smoked fish cream cheese filled puffs should be ON the menu! The French onion soup had the BEST rich and flavorful broth. Those were a nice touch. I was thinking of giving 4 stars because some of the food was off a bit, but sadly, the outside seating was just too cold today, and so the food cooled off too quickly to truly get to experience the flavors the way they were meant o be enjoyed, and I don't think that is on them. The temperature and calling for reservation last minute? Yeah. That's it. If you make reservations, ask for the "garden" section. It's the enclosed patio adjacent to the restaurant. So less windy and cold. read more

Hands down best restaurant in Denver. A few friends and I went to Mizuna last night for dinner. Their team warmly greeted us while following all COVID guidelines. I'm regards to those guidelines they even had virtual menus and ways to virtually pay to ensure a seamless high end experience. Okay onto the good stuff... We chose the tasting menu as a way to celebrate. I've done several tasing menu's and hands down this was the best one. The variety of foods was superb, delicious and the quantity of food was well worth the price. We also chose the wine pairing which was perfectly paired with our food. Not only is this some of the best food you could taste in town but this is a high quality service with attentive, knowledgeable servers. You not only will love your time here but you'll be making reservations at Frank's (the chef's) other restaurants because it's just that good. read more

We are a fan! We really enjoyed the food and service here. Their bread basket and butter with Hawaiian sea salt were the best! We ordered Fois Gras and Beef Tartare for appetizer and they were both very tasty. For main course , we ordered seared scallop and lobster fried rice with Kanpachi -delicious. We'll probably be back soon. read more

I had an amazing experience at Mizuna for a first time visit. I was traveling solo to Denver and wanted a fine dining experience and got exactly what I wanted. The portions were small, but perfect for me and I had a great view of the kitchen which I enjoyed. I didn't get my server's name, but he was FANTASTIC! I needed the food slowed down he did it, I wanted pairing recommendations, got them, changes to the Chef's menu, done. And he was just an overall joy of a person! They even gave me some cookies and muffins in a cute bag when I was done. The food was delicious, but I feel like maybe I'm not a fan of grouper (lol), the beef wellington was life-changing. Would definitely go back. read more

We had an incredible meal at Mizuna- the chefs tasting menu was truly breathtaking and we chose to do the sommelier paring with it which was entirely worth it; all of the food was to die for and the wine was both surprising and delicious. The service was excellent, everyone was very accommodating and the ambiance is very relaxing and enjoyable. We loved the scallops, the pasta, even the salad was completely perfect, and as people who don't love dessert wines, the pairings with incredible desserts and amazing wines were I truly memorable and delicious! Tony our server was awesome! FIVE STARS! read more

Visited Mizuna for our second year anniversary both the food and the service didn't disappoint. We started with the Spanish octopus, seared Foie gras and the lobster Mac cheese for appetizers. They were all good but the lobster stood out mainly due to the rich sauce it came with. For the main dishes we went with the beef Wellington and the duck breast. Again both were good but I personally liked the duck more. For dessert they we went with the banana bread which was tasty and nutty as well. Here are my ratings: Spanish octopus: 7.5/10 Seared Foie gras: 8/10 Lobster Mac n cheese: 8.5/10 Beef Wellington: 8/10 Duck breast: 8/10 Banana bread: 8/10 read more

Being in Denver I wanted to find an extremely high class romantic place to take my spouse to dinner. Upon searching I found this restaurant. Going for a splurge I opted for the chef's menu with wine paring. And boy was I not disappointed The food was delicious the presentation was impeccable and the wait staff was absolutely fabulous. I highly recommend stopping here make certain to book your reservation in advance as this intimate dining experience fills up quickly. read more

Very unfortunate for the amount of money we just dropped for costal pairing with wine tasting. Really underwhelming food. Seems a lot of the dishes were already prepared, which might be the case but nothing that I had can I even say man that was memorable. Well we gave it a try and that's that! Too many better places to revisit. Service was good, and Bartender subbing in from place up the he street was cool dude. Good luck to your businesses you have great location and the bars next door and on the corner are pretty cool offerings different vibes. read more

We had an incredible meal, but it was the full experience that blew us away. Everyone was knowledgeable and so friendly. We sat at the bar, so we even got to engage with the chef while he was preparing our courses. Do yourself a favor and do the full tasting menu. We will definitely be back when we return to Denver. read more

EXCEPTIONAL. So exceptional that we will and encourage others to dine at and nominate Mizuna for the James Beard award. Also, Michelin guide, why have you not opened a branch in Denver to give this restaurant the stars it deserves?? My fiance and I were celebrating our last night in Denver and per tradition made a reservation at Denver's best restaurant, Mizuna. We were greeted warmly, explained the rules for COVID and safety, and seated immediately at our lovely table in the greenhouse. Although we chose the 3-course menu, we received little tastings in between each course, leaving us feeling full and satisfied. Our course started with sparkling Brut on the house with an extensive wine and cocktails menu (we ordered some delicious sparkling rosé after). Before our appetizers (lobster mac and cheese, tokyo escargot) we received an amuse bouche, potato puree and delicious delicious fennel bread with himalayan salt-topped home-churned butter to stimulate our appetites. The lobster mac and cheese was DELICIOUS and the Tokyo escargot a wonderful fusion of French and Japanese flavors. After our appetizers, we received fruit shots to clear our palettes and prepare for the main courses: Scallops and Beef Wellington. Again, both dishes were incredible (scallops for me, being I'm pescatarian). Before dessert, we received a small panna cotta with strawberries. I ordered the pineapple curd and my partner ordered the creme brulee. The two dishes complemented each other nicely. I was absolutely blown away by the courtesy, conscientiousness and passion of the staff and executive chef, Adam. We got to taste an experimental ice cream dish, which had the most intriguing sequence of sweet, tart and salt flavors. Our dining experience ended with a lovely complementary gift box of chocolates, donuts and cookies. My fiance and I have a tradition of visiting "the best" restaurant in every place we visit, and Mizuna takes the cake as being the best of the best. Not only do we know that we will return to Mizuna in our future visits to Colorado, but we would also recommend it to anybody traveling to Denver! It cannot be missed!! read more

We were so looking forward to this experience. It was my boyfriend's birthday weekend and we had heard so many great things. Like, so many. The service overall was okay. When we arrived there and were greeted by the host who happened to be the sommelier and he was stellar. Showed us to our table, and we were so excited to dive into our dinner. Our server shared that they were doing a chef tasting and duh, we jumped at that. She was very attentive and sweet. Sadly, the food did not live up to any of our expectations. Each course was disappointing and at $100+ I kept asking myself if I would pay X $$ for each, and I definitely would not. About halfway through our dinner we also had a server change, which is fine, but the level of service was as mediocre as the food. We felt like an afterthought and did not feel comfortable sharing our dissatisfaction. The check was dropped and we paid, left a generous tip and will likely not be back. read more

My boyfriend and I were treated to a dinner at Mizuna and absolutely loved every second of our experience. From the moment we entered the restaurant we were made to feel special, important, and like our business mattered. The real treat, though, was the food. You can tell that care, precision, and passion is put into every dish at Mizuna, matched with perfect wine pairings to make it an even better experience. My boyfriend is a chef and I am a teacher, so it was a treat for us to experience a fine dining experience like this one. We highly recommend Mizuna! read more

Read somewhere that this was the best restaurant in Denver so I had to try it. The food was pretty blah. Foie gras - so salty and dry and hard. Foie gras is super duper fatty, so I really don't know how they managed to make it dry Beef Wellington - blah. Steak in puff pastry is already heavy, and they thought it'd be a good idea to pair it with an even heavier cheese sauce? The steak itself wasn't really good either. Disappointed again. read more

We had a wonderful time here for my birthday and the food was really delicious, overall great experience. First thing's first, they DO check your vaccination card at the door. This a plus for me, as it shows that they care about the safety and well-being of their staff. We got the chef's tasting menu and wine pairing. This place is far fancier than anything we've ever been to, so it seemed kind a real fine dining experience to us. The service was phenomenal. They explain in-depth about everything you get, but they also went above and beyond in my opinion. When we sat down there was a birthday card signed by all the staff. When we were a little confused about one of the dishes, someone overheard us and came to explain right away. When we realized that the meal was going to take longer than expected, they offered to rush the last dish and packed up our dessert to go. (It took over 2 hours to get all 7 dishes). Our server also wrote down all of the wines I drank for me to take home. For the food, we loved almost everything. The wine pours were pretty generous. My least favorite dish was the beet&mushroom, I'm just not a huge fan of shiitake flavor, but my boyfriend enjoyed it. The highlight for me was definitely the koginut lumache! The tomatoes were just so perfectly acidic with the pasta and the truffle, and the seasoning on the edge of the plate was incredible. It was just such a standout for me. My boyfriend's favorite was the wagyu steak that we decided to upgrade for. It was perfectly cooked and almost had a melt in your mouth texture. As someone who grew up on the east coast, I'm always very disappointed when scallops come out, because they are totally flavorless and bland out here in Colorado. I'm happy to say this wasn't the case AT ALL with the scallop dish, the scallops themselves actually retained their flavor and were ok! The sage apple cake was really wonderful to me because I prefer desserts that aren't overly sweet, and this dessert was just perfect. Everything else we got was very delicious but I don't want to write a book here so I'll leave it at this. This place is a great place to come for a special occasion, if you don't mind spending the money, but it was worth it in my experience! read more

Had dinner here with some friends a couple of weeks ago. Tasting menu, whole table is required if you want to go that route. Food was nice, service excellent. The stand out dish was the Lamb course. Didn't care for desert. I made sure to ask for light on Salt (reading other reviews). They can be a little heavy handed on it. read more

I went to this place with a date this past weekend. We sat at the bar because that's our preference. The food was fantastic. We ordered the seven course chefs tasting menu with two cocktails to start. I think the cocktail was called apple smash and it was delicious. We moved on to a nice Bordeaux blend with dinner. I got the seafood focused chefs tasting menu, and my favorite course was these little pasta pockets that were stuffed with buffalo cheese, topped with truffle oil, shaved truffle, and Parmesan foam, and garnished with a healthy serving of roasted lobster, it was amazing. The only reason I'm not giving this place a five star review is because the bartender wasn't very attentive, his wine pours were below standard and he provided me a bill without the itemized portion and failed to mention that there is a 22% gratuity added to the bill! Thank God the couple next to me whispered it to me when he stepped away. When you are paying that much money you need to make sure that your guests understand your policies when they are outside of the norm. With the right level of service additional gratuity can easily be earned. The fact that this was never mentioned & the itemized portion of the bill was withheld felt very shady, especially when you're paying over $500 for a meal. I'm willing to give this place another try bc the rest of the staff was friendly including the chefs speaking to me as I entered and exited. They seemed genuine & I loved that....but I will not be sitting at the bar. I forget his name but he is a white man w brown hair in his mid 50's and mentioned he's on his 3rd marriage. Watch out for this guy. read more

My review is on the Chefs Tasting Menu of October 2019. While I know this is not a Michelin Rated Restaurant, In no way shape or form will I compare it to Michelin Rated Restaurants I have experienced. My point is that I eat at hole in the wall places consisting of a bill of not more than 20 dlls or food trucks and fine dining restaurants. Having tried numerous restaurants in various Continents around the World and the USA. You can tell a lot about a restaurant when you try their bread and butter and let me tell you the bread is not worth it at all usually I have to ask for them to remove the bread so I can enjoy the dinner lets just say the bread bowl stayed there without no one touching it. Butter was very salty. This place was a let down mainly because the food was very SALTY yes all caps on that. I could not savor anything because of the saltiness. The food was very creative in the ingredients and presentation wise could have been a bit better. I will say the best part of the 6 course tasting menu was the palate cleanser! Which was a very nice sorbet! Even the dessert was salty imagine that a salty chocolate cake concoction. I would not dine here again while in town based on the food. Was not asked if I had enjoyed the food at all or any feedback whatsoever. I will however note that the some servers are very attentive at all times very pleasant experience our waitress was a bit snobby and not welcoming. Waiters that were bringing out plates were great and the ones who refilled water and cleared table crumbs and replaced silverware for each plate. Wanted to like this place but it fell short to my expectations. For 100 dll Tasting Menu per person plus drinks and tip totaling more than 300 dlls try elsewhere. Even if the food had been 20 dlls not worth it unless you like Salty food. Would not eat here even if it was for free. read more

We love doing the Chef's Tasting Menu, it is always a good surprise. One course after the next, that are nicely presented and very tasty. I am a picky eater and would probably never order certain plates off the menu but I have never not liked what I have been served. The service staff is very attentive but we could always tell when they are newbies if they forget to clear a plate or ask to remove a plate when we are not done with it yet. Overall, never have been disappointed with the experience. read more

Wow! What an excellent dining experience. Top notch service, excellent food, reasonable bottles of wine, you really can't go wrong. Come here for a special night out with a loved one as the atmosphere is very intimate and romantic. I would consider the plates here to be somewhat small, but I eat 5-6 small meals a day so the portion sizes were perfect for us. If you are used to eating plates of food from the cheesecake factory you will definitely be disappointed in the portion sizes. I started with the bibb salad since I was starving hungry and it was perfect for me since I love gorgonzola and it was topped with some fresh strawberries. I am somewhat of a picky eater so I usually choose a meat entree and at Mizuna it was no different, I throughly enjoyed my beef wellington which was the priciest entree on the menu at $43 dollars, it was only a couple dollars cheaper than out bottle of wine. Was it worth it? Absolutely. My honey said his halibut was some of the best he's had and he hails from NYC where they can get very fresh seafood. Finish with warm chocolate cake, its what dreams are made of... Overall a wonderful experience and we will definitely return. read more

We had such a wonderful and delicious dinner to kick of the new year! We were seated on the outside patio every table had their own fireplace and it was truly warm despite the chilly night.

Went in for dinner and all I can say is I expected more for the price. I would even give it 3.5 stars if it wasn't for the service and dessert. Dining room is welcoming and cozy, service is really good. Now for the food. We tried: * scallops which came in a beautiful presentation of mushrooms, potatoes crisps and greens, but the scallops were too salty. * same saltines issue applies to the halibut dish, which otherwise was good with the fresh peas and green sauce. * octopus appetizer which was a disappointment for the $22 price, as they were chewy and came with really salty again potatoes cubes. * asparagus appetizer which was great in itself but too much mayonnaise with it. * chocolate gateau for dessert which was really tasty and beautiful presentation, so this one gets the highest mark. We also tied a lemongrass sorbet which was also very good. Overall nice experience but it's not worth the price. If it wasn't for the salt and less than perfect execution, I would go back. read more

A restaurant that over prices their food and under delivers on said overpriced food. My husband and I ordered the chefs table expecting a well assembled and mind blowing pallet pleasing experience. Unfortunately what we received was bland, uninspiring and hilariously small portions. Our duck was undercooked, the salad was bagged lettuce with finely cut pear and the highlight of the meal was the brioche bun with fennel butter between courses. If you're looking for a fine dining experience with both food and atmosphere in mind we recommend Avelina. To be honest I'd pay Mizuna price for Avelina dishes. We will not be returning. read more

What an experience. Just wow. It was incredible. From walking in we felt like we were royalty. We went with the 3 course tasting and were surprised that there were plenty of surprises on the way...bread, French onion soup, some sort of dessert and a sipping soup that I definitely can't pronounce....oh and did we mention a goodie bag of cookies and Doughnuts for the am! I did beef Wellington and was outrageously amazed. The tuna app was glorious too. My husband had crab cakes and the duck...and my god was that duck just the best. I did everything possible to not scrape his plate. Of course we had dessert which was also so wonderful. We were a little worried in advance of the portion sizes given what we had seen on some of the reviews, however we went home with leftovers and a goodie bag for breakfast in the morning which was also another pleasant surprise! read more

Mizuna is a bakery pretending to be a French restaurant. Spouse and I went for our first time in celebration of our anniversary. We elected to go with the tasting menu paired with wine. Good experiences from dining included the cookie and roll. The cookie tasted sweet, airy, and light. The roll "unclear if it was meant to be one of the dishes" was delicious. Also, the quality of fish they served was great. Also, service was what you would expect for fine dining. Friendly and professional staff :) As for the rest of the tasting, it was disharmonious. They could improve on the seasonings, finding harmony on dishes, and finding wines that compliment the food. example, the scallop plate paired with heavy tannin red wine. The scallop was beautiful, but that's it, the dish was just a scallop. I think it was served on mashed potato. There was nothing bringing them together. Any kid fresh out of culinary trade school could do that "and likely do it better". Then there was the wine. It was a heavy tannin red. I thought if it could breath, it might go sweater. nope. Even if it had, it didn't pair well with scallops. I don't know if there has ever been a good red wine- fish pairing. Another example, Soggy popcorn on himache. The popcorn stuck to my teeth and added a horrible texture to the bite. Am I being to harsh in giving one star. At more than $400 dinner for two, no I'm not being harsh and also I think one star is too high. Recommendations to chef. Try the dishes you prepare. Walk around your restaurant during the evening to see the experience your customers are having. read more
