About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Good for business meals

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.

Wonderful food, helpful service, 4-top next to us was a bit too loud for my husband and me to hear each other. Probably not the normal situation. Food and service were excellent!

This restaurant is always a superb experience. The service is consistently excellent and they always seem genuinely pleased to see us. The sushi is as good as any I’ve ever had, including at a Michelin starred sushi restaurant in Madrid and in Tokyo. We are very lucky to have Mizuno’s in our area. It’s a little pricey but well worth every penny.

The food never disappoints, it is always fresh and delicious! However, the service last night was awful. It took an hour for our sushi to come out, we were without drinks for most of the night, and then the time between the waitress dropping our check to the table and getting our cards back was over 30 minutes. Total time at the restaurant was 3 hours due to very poor service.
