Food is a necessity but it can also be an artistry. love this lineLocated atop the Hyatt Centric Hotel in the heart of SouthPark, Mizu is the only restaurant in Charlotte where guests can enjoy traditional Japanese Robata cooking.

Considered the oldest form of Japanese cooking, Robata began centuries ago by fishermen who prepared seafood by laying skewers over a wood grill. The practice evolved to charcoal — where the high heat locks in the juice— providing food with incredible flavor and texture.
