"A Japanese eatery offering sushi and izakaya-style small plates for travelers looking for clean, Japanese-inspired meals." - Ruth Tobias
"Yes, you’re going to see tables of wannabe influencers with ring lights taking pictures of seductively plated sashimi and a cocktail named after an Ariana Grande song at Mizu Izakaya. But guess what? The sushi, noodles, poke bowls, skewers, ramen, and hot stones (they have a very lengthy menu) are so good, even people who have never thought to edit a photo will leave satisfied. Happy hour is an especially good time to go, when the sake bombs and california rolls cost $5." - allyson reedy
"Though the sushi and ramen are solid, it’s the small plates that really shine at this sultry Japanese spot, from grilled squid and yellowtail collar to karaage and the signature cream pork kimchi. They’re built, of course, for pairing with saké — but for a change of pace, try a cocktail featuring ingredients like dragon fruit, ume, or oolong tea." - Josie Sexton

"From the chic, artsy decor to the elaborately garnished cocktails flavored with dragon fruit, oolong tea, or umami bitters, this LoHi slice of nightlife has got flashy style to spare. So do its sushi chefs, who might on any given night be serving up two types of uni, wild yellowtail belly, and whole live scallop alongside California rolls topped with baked lobster and Kewpie mayo." - Gigi Sukin
