Bidra med feedbackThe sushi was amazing here and so was the service all around. The server would even refill my hot tea before I even got a chance to serve myself : highly recommend
Wow! Mizumi completely shut down for about 9 months to do a major rebuild of what was originally a beautiful restaurant. After 18 years it was time and the new setting is outstanding. The restaurant flow is much improved and the new interior is warm, pleasant, and inviting. Like All restaurants at the Wynn the attention to detail is spectacular you'd think Steve Wynn was still walking the floor as his element of perfection still prevails. and that is a good thing. Besides a new redo there is a new Chef at Mizumi. Enough written about Chef Ramsey, his history and skills. Based on our dinner I'd say this is going to work. Some thoughts: the original had the bar on the right side upon entering. It was awkward and a bit uncomfortable standing while enjoying great cocktails limited bar chairs. The new redo reversed the bar and the Sushi station. Great right? Not so fast since reservations are a must a lot of people come in without reserves and can't get a table so they are now offered Bar seats and menu. Our foursome couldn't get a drink as everyone was eating. Boo beautiful Bar but now not a bar just extended food service. Just a Njt but still a Nit. No chair or bar lounge area. A mistake I think. The new table seating areas are top notch. Probably the most comfortable chairs I've sat in. Padded perfectly. A modern feel. Beautiful table spacing. The Menu: still pretty much the same menu with all the favorites of the previous Chef. He was a detail fanatic importing fresh items from Japan so we were happy with everything even though we'd had the items previously. Our waiter was excellent. His name was Woo and he was Wow. Made the whole evening flow wonderfully. Explained what is a rather difficult menu to maneuver. Lots of different sections that don't always flow in succession. He helped cut through the process so it made more sense. We had numerous dishes, lots of warm Saki, and left satisfied but not stuffed or feeling bloated from salt overdose. Flavors and quality A1. Woo told us chef was working toward a newer menu with more creative style, tasting menu options etc. that sounded enticing. Regardless. We'll be back.
First time there since the renovations. The interior pallette was a wonderful hue of gold and warm wood. Incredibly welcoming. Ambiance was perfect. Chef Min is gone and the new chef will be putting his mark on the menu soon. Jeff Ramsey. The only Japanese American born chef titled Sushi Master. Looking forward to returning next year. At the sushi bar, Chef Kendo San was wonderful. As was our server, Woo. Very informative and diplomatic. Scallops, octopus, uni, ikura all fresh and incredibly delicious as sushi. Rolls were creative and tasty. Beer was refreshing and sister had the Pinot. Shiitake with Truffles, very (too? buttery. And I usually like le truffe. Aburi was excellent. Really. The carpaccio was outstanding. Elders really enjoyed the udon, esp the noodles, and the flavor rich broth. The tempura was so good they ordered another plate of it. Best meal of the weekend.
After traveling to Japan and after several disappointing experiences at upscale Japanese/fusion restaurants in the states, I'm always a little skeptical of places like this. However, Mizumi was fantastic across the board--truly did not disappoint! The restaurant is stunning with a modern/sleek but still kind of wooded interior, and the glass wall looking out into the courtyard and waterfall backdrop. It's on par with what you'd expect inside the Wynn, and was a fun but romantic ambiance for a Vegas date night! We arrived late (at last call for the kitchen, which was very nice they even still let us in) so we didn't try a ton of food, but really enjoyed the small plates we did get. The O-Toro was worth the price point as it was fatty, flavorful and tender, and the crispy rice with tuna hit the spot for two people that always order crispy rice with tuna elsewhere. The wagyu beef and lobster roll was to die for! It was the most memorable part of the meal and we only wish we didn't get more. To re-iterate, after going to Japan and having true Kobe beef and some of the best sushi in the world, I've been wary of my expectations in the states, but this was all very, very good. (I normally take a lot of pictures but was enjoying this too much)! I definitely want to come back and try a full entree next time. We also ordered desserts, the yuzu soufflé and warm chocolate fondant. I generally like tart and rich flavors but I thought the coconut ice cream was necessary with the soufflé and passion fruit custard; otherwise it was a little too much for me. We both liked the warm chocolate fondant the best (super gooey and chocolatey), which paired nicely with the more mellow green tea ice cream. Again, we arrived at last call and ended up still staying pretty late. That aside, service was great, but we appreciated that they squeezed us in and didn't rush us through the meal. Thanks, Mizumi!
This is hands down the best meal my husband and I have ever had. We had the lobster miso soup, edamame, sashimi platter, fried rice, snow beef, a nice bottle of red wine and a sake flight to share. The service was excellent and the food was out of this world. It is definitely a splurge and dinner for two (including dessert and coffee) ran around $800 so you are looking at around $1,000 this is an excellent choice!
