Everything is great. It was disappointing that you don't honor happy hour prices if you have a groupon. I still paid for the group on that shouldn't affect happy hour prices.

Went for our anniversary. Absolutely loved it. Servers were all personable and knew the menu. The sushi was great, my bourbon 7's were perfect. My wife had their Yuzu whiskey sour which she says was the best drink she's ever had (and we've been married 28 years). I knew going in I was going to need to stock up the checkbook. Zero buyers remorse. Will definitely return.

White Bear Lake is so fortunate to have Mizu in our city. All of their dishes are phenomenal and the sushi chefs are creative and skilled. Easily one of the best places for sushi in Minnesota. They offer a great setting right on the lake. They get extremely busy in the summers but the food is worth the wait. Any bad review here is unwarranted. Absolutely top notch - worth every penny. If you love sushi this will be your new favorite spot!

Loved our meal! Service was fantastic and meal was even better! Pickled vegetables and White Bear roll were my favorites although we enjoyed everything that our table ordered. Especially appreciate that they were able to accommodate a gluten Allergy.

Probably the worst service i have, had in a while. We would have drank more fancy drinks if they had actually paid attention to us. We wanted to get desert but the waiter never offered and stopped by so infrequently that we figured it would be quicker to stop somewhere else for desert on the way home. And trust me it wasn't because it was Valentine's day. Several couples were being served much faster then us by our waiter. It seemed most of the other patrons were under 21 so i don't know if he thought ignoring us would make us order more sushi from the sushi bar or what. Anyways it didn't work in his favor. Because forcing people to order from the sushi bar was a bad plan in itself on such a busy night the chef "taking care" of us literally was heads down making white people rolls all night.

Great sushi and service! Only issue is that the chairs inside are SOOOO tiny they just aren't made for adults. Look great and would fit a child no problem, but as adults we were balancing ourselves on the edge of our chairs the whole meal. We are by no means huge people, pretty average size. It's a simple thing, but having to balance on chairs the entire evening really took away from the experience and made us not want to stay as long as we would have otherwise.

It’s always a special treat to ourselves to go to Mizu. We want everything on the menu! The staff seem to love their jobs, work as a team, are helpful with the menu and friendly. My only complaint about this restaurant is that the high top stool seats are absolutely tiny, which can make dining uncomfortable. Two top tables are small and close together so it doesn’t feel like there’s a good place to put your purse or coat.Parking: Free accessible ramp parking is really nice.

Great sushi and cocktail. Service was sporadic, at best. Went with a friend for a birthday dinner.

Truly exotic, delicious meals. My group had a mixture of single dishes, along with big plates of sharable rolls and creamy, perfectly plated sashimi. Pair all that with an interesting drink menu and a good spectrum of sakes, and you've got a dinner party you'll never forget.

Absolutely great appetizers and great rolls! The white bear lake roll was my favorite, and I definitely enjoyed the Uni-Spoon and the steamed bun with the short ribs!
