Hmmm one review, I'm looking for something like sushi on the run but with room for more than 8 people 
Meh. I wasn't impressed. Call me a sushi snob, but I do prefer some fresh high quality nigiri over sauce-drenched rolls. That being said, I still can very much enjoy some good rolls and can appreciate places that specialize in rolls. I have given many a roll place high ratings, despite my sushi preference.
However, Mizu is not one of them. I was underwhelmed by their rolls as well as their nigiri. The menu dabbles in both Korean and Japanese fare, offering a large variety of items, from rolls covered in mayo to kalbi. Even so, the rolls I got were just okay. Not bad, but not great either.
Mizu is a hip place with modern and lounge-y decor for groups of people to eat, hang out, and drink. Similar to places like Sino, Straits, etc., Mizu's food is toned-down Asian food. It is a great place for friends to party over food, but I wouldn't recommend it for the food alone.

I'm not a sushi snob so most of the nigiri in the area tastes the same to me so I usually base it on the rolls.. There's another one in the South Bay that I think is good, but again not for the nigiri... can't remember the name of it.

I suggested Muracci's Japanese Curry and Grill to Vu...this place puts Curry House to shame.

Anyone interested? A little heavy for a hot night, but we could save some space for some froyo after or something.

Gonna pass on dinner. I'll probably be at the gym or batting cages around that time. Not a huge froyo fan either so I'll pass on that too. Have fun though! It's going to be crazy hot today.
