Japanese Restaurants near Calera

“I have a mixed review. The Crab Rangoon and Hot/Sour soup were excellent; hot and fresh. Bang Bang chicken and egg rolls were cold. I ordered takeout in person at the restaurant at 11:10 am shortly after opening. The restaurant wasn’t busy, yet I was told it would take 15 minutes. That’s standard for all takeout orders so no problem. However, with the wait I expected EVERYTHING to be hot and fresh. To end on a positive note, the flavor of everything was good, even the cold items once heated. 2 egg rolls, bang bang chicken appetizer, hot and sour soup and crab Rangoon (5) totaled $32…a little pricey for a Chinese lunch.“

“Absolutely wonderful experience at Mizuwa! The food is delicious. We’ve been coming here as a family for a while and it never disappoints.
What truly sets this place apart, though, is the service. We always try to visit during quieter times with our young children (3 years old and 8 months old), but on this visit our little one woke up early from his nap and was quite fussy, making it hard for us to enjoy our meal.
That’s when our server Madi stepped in and completely saved the day. He offered to take our 8-month-old and gently carried him around the restaurant for at least 20 minutes so my husband and I could actually eat in peace. Madi and the rest of the staff were also wonderful with our 3-year-old, playing with her and keeping her entertained.
This kind of kindness and genuine care is rare. It turned what could have been a stressful outing into a relaxing and memorable one. Thank you, Madi, and the whole team—we’re so grateful and will absolutely be back!
Highly recommend Mizuwa for families!“
