Booked 9 times today
Mizuno Japanese Restaurant is a family-run business that first opened in 1996. Located in Virginia Beach, Mizuno is embedded in a seafood hotspot, only 25 miles south of the Eastern Shore of Virginia and the Chesapeake Bay, and 158 miles south of Hatteras, North Carolina. Chef-owner Wataru Mizuno feels blessed to be a sushi chef in a culinary trifecta like Virginia Beach. Mizuno and his team take advantage of the restaurant's access to local sources by artfully composing daily specials that feature fresh shrimp, yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna, flounder, blue crabs and oysters, to name a few. The hook's simple. Mizuno resists complicated sauces and excessive ingredients. Instead, he flavors scallops from the world famous Chesapeake Bay, adding nothing more, at times, than a dash of citrus and a pinch of sea salt. Wataru Mizuno: Chef/Owner Born in Japan, Wataru Mizuno received his formal training in Tokyo, as an apprentice under master Teruo Sato.

    Group of friends met at 6pm for the Prime Rib special. So much food. And it was all outstanding. 12 oz Prime Rib cooked as you like, cream spinach stuffed tomatoes, thinly sliced glazed mushrooms and your choice of side: mashed or whole baked potato or Asparagus. All of that, and an amazing glass of red wine for $29. Would do this special again in a heartbeat. Plenty of food leftover for a 2nd meal.

    Run, don’t walk to this restaurant! It is awesome!! Everything is terrific! Great red and white wine selection! We celebrated an anniversary so we had the fabulous Burrata with great homemade pesto drizzle and surprisingly delicious tomatoes! (And it’s March!) Wedge salad and Caesar didn’t disappoint with lots of cheese and homemade dressings! Then came fabulous entrees! My husband is picky about cioppino and he loved it! It was filled with large shrimp, clams, fish, scallops and loads of delicious, delicious sauce/broth! (Be sure to ask for extra bread to sop up any extra!) I ordered the special fish of the day which was a huge piece of a tender, delicate rockfish cooked to perfection with a lemon wine sauce! Still wanting pasta, our server suggested that I could substitute pasta for the potatoes so I jumped at the chance. That was the best decision! Their homemade angel hair pasta is divine! Then came 2 wonderful desserts, tiramisu and the outstanding pistachio cake and then decaf espresso! Whew! What a food coma, but this was an outstanding meal! Run, don’t walk there! It’s worth it!
