MIZU
Charlotte, NC
Perched atop the Hyatt Centric in Charlotte’s SouthPark neighborhood, Mizu blends the ancient traditions of Japanese Robata grilling with Southern influences and Asian-inspired flavors. Opened in August 2021, this rooftop restaurant has quickly become a standout destination for elevated dining. The kitchen, anchored by Mizu’s signature wood-fired Robata grill, offers a seafood-focused menu featuring raw, chilled, and flame-kissed creations, all designed to celebrate the art of live-fire cooking.
The beverage program perfectly complements the cuisine, highlighting refreshing cocktails crafted with Japanese spirits and seasonal ingredients. True to its name—Mizu, meaning “water” in Japanese—the restaurant’s sleek, minimalist design incorporates natural elements, creating a serene yet vibrant atmosphere. Guests can enjoy sweeping rooftop views from the patio or relax in the sophisticated interiors with lounge and bar seating.
A favorite for dinner and bar service, Mizu offers a dining experience that’s equal parts innovative and approachable, seamlessly merging global techniques with local sensibilities.
