About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for scenic views
  • Great for outdoor dining
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. Led by the award-winning Indigo Road Hospitality Group, the rooftop restaurant combines the traditions of ancient Japanese cooking with Southern influences and Asian flavors. The chef offers a seafood-focused menu composed of wood-fired, raw, and chilled offerings, sushi, and shareable plates. True to the word Mizu's translation to 'water' in Japanese, the space's design takes inspiration from natural elements, which are incorporated throughout the chic, minimalist restaurant, and outdoor terrace with sweeping city views.

There was a mishap with our drinks and the team jumped right in to make everything perfect for the rest of the night, Max was very gracious. We came for the food and will definitely be back because of the service.

My friend and I were warmly greeted and immediately brought back to the open kitchen counter where we could watch the cooks. We had the non-alcoholic drinks; very tasty and nicely presented. The yakitori chicken was delicious, as always, the sea bass was so creamy and delicate and cooked to perfection. And the roasted carrots, who knew that the common carrot could be so good?!! We loved the roasted corn but for me the piece de resistance was the thinly sliced flank steak with charred oysters mushrooms. That dish was to die for; the steak was melt in your mouth good and the mushrooms just slightly crispy. Sooo good!
