Sorry, felt like a typical overpriced hotel restaurant. Walked in last night, not busy, bar empty but was told could not have a table for four without a reservation. Welcome to sit in the bar which we did. Bartender was handling the service bar , took some time to take our orders and bring us drinks. / not her fault. She could have used some help. Food a bit pricey , was ok, not fantastic. But my issue was a gin and tonic that I ordered, it was in a nice rocks glass but with their small measured pours I was literally drinking tonic water. Never have had this issue. I ordered a second shot to make a legitimate gin and tonic, most expensive Hendricks and Tonic I have ever had ! $36 with the extra shot. Again not the bartenders fault , she obviously is following protocol. Would not visit again. read more

Yeah this was not my favorite food - please note I am rating for the food by itself and the prices nothing else. We ordered room service to our hotel room and so I can't comment on the ambiance service etc. I rate base on my expectations - unfortunately, the food was below my expectations - 2/5 overall. We ordered the shrimp crunch roll, the chicken teriyaki skewers and the chicken katsu sliders. Overall we spent $50 for all three, so it was about $15 a piece per dish. Keep in mind we ordered one of the cheapest rolls and the other two are apps, so entrees will run $30-50. For $50 we had plenty of food so portions were overall good. The shrimp crunch roll was very average and kinda dry. The crab on top was real crab which was great and it was fresh the shrimp was also well cooked. It was a lot of avocado in the roll which felt like it overpowered it a bit. The roll was also suuuper warm. So overall not the best sushi I've had but not the worst - 3/5. The chicken teriyaki skewers were good. Flavor was nice the chicken was juicy. Good portion for an appetizer. One piece of the chicken was a big rubbery, overall this wasn't the norm so I may have gotten a bad piece. But overall this dish was good, just very simple - chicken on a stick with teriyaki sauce and some black and white sesame seeds. 3/5 The chicken katsu sliders were horrible. The buns were dry the chicken was so thin it was almost all breading (yes I know chicken katsu is thin breaded chicken but this was like paper thin). The sauce was basically non existent. One tiny dot on the bun. Dry no flavor. Not good. 1/5. Not sure if dining in person brings this up a notch but I didn't feel like this was the best Japanese food I've ever had and probably wouldn't bother going in person. read more

We decided to go for happy hour sushi specials. There were only a few options so we got most of them to share. The sushi rolls were good but nothing amazing. The robata was pretty boring and didn't encourage us to order any off of the regular menu. The hand roll options looked good but were impossible to eat. Mine ended up all over the table. Our server was good but the food was slow. I overheard another server apologizing to another table about the slowness and blaming it on happy hour. They have happy hour twice a week and I would think should know how to handle that limited menu. Cocktails were pretty and tasted delightful but I'm not sure had much alcohol in them at all. I'll be happy to return to Mr. Tokyo for my future sushi needs. read more

Tried all the rolls - none of them tasted good. Leaving a review so I remember not to return

Went here for my friends 30th birthday with a group of 20 of us. They sat us privately in the side room right by entrance. It was so nice having our own room with this large of group! The service was great. Drinks took a little time but everyone ordered cocktails so that can be understandable. With a large group, they had a prefixed menu for us. They brought out a ton of appetizers and entrees "tapa" style to share. One recommendation I'd make note of is that they really fill you up on the appetizers and small bites before bringing out the main entrees. I wish we didn't fill up so fast before the more expensive items came out! Overall, the place is adorable and the rooftop is great for summertime! It is pricey so make sure you're ready to splurge a little. I'll be back! read more

I paid $24 for two scallops that were not what I wanted them to be, but that doesn't mean the food is not good for everybody else

Positive- The rooftop view is unmatched! It basically made up for all the hiccups. We made it in to see the sunset. The decor was beautiful, the vibes and ambiance were great! Also it's in a very nice part of town. Critical- Oh boy. We somehow got in right after a group of 30 and the bar was completely slammed. Our drinks didn't come until after we were finished eating, maybe 45 min later, and this was the case for all the table around us. They did comp them which was nice. As for the food, nothing special. We had the shrimp, fish sliders, wings, and my friend had the raw oysters which he liked. And everything was on the pricier side. The service was eh, our server wasn't around much at all and it was hard to find her when it was time to lay the check, but she was nice. read more

Just left Mizu for the first and couldn't wait any longer to share my experience. Absolute 5-stars. The customer service was top notch. Kind, attentive, and intentional. Ambiance is romantic - def a great date night place. The food was EXCELLENT. We ordered the pork belly buns and the Yaki-Tori (chicken skewers), and Brussels as appetizers. The buns were good - just wish the meat was a tad bit thicker slices/chunks to balance out the thickness of the bun. The Yaki was so juicy and flavorful. The Brussels were crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside - so yummy!! My only wish was that the plate was bigger lol For our entrees I ordered the NY strip and he ordered the Pork Chop. Very juicy cuts of meat. The cauliflower puree and sweet potato puree balanced the plate. I wish I could've requested more of the cauliflower puree lol. Clearly by my desire to want more of almost everything I will definitely return. Thank you to the manager and our waitress for the excellent service. read more

A great place for a date night, but yet I was disappointed with some of the dishes!! First of all the restaurant is in a great location at Southpark, it is on the 9th Floor of the Hyatt Centric hotel, the moment that you arrived the environment is so nice and felt so relax. The windows that has a view looking over the city it is really awesome. The staff was excellent, everyone is super nice and has great personality, by far some of the best service I seen in a while. The host explained what the restaurant is about when we are walking to our table. The waitress, she was on point with everything and had recommended us some dishes on the menu. Well we ordered five dishes and dessert. Tuna crisp was delicious, the crisp sesame cracker with fresh tuna, it is on point, it only comes with five pieces, to be honest I can eat like 20 of those. Then the waitress brought out some Hamachi Tartare for us to try, it was like a mini taco with fresh fish, the favor just exploded in my month. Then we got got our Ironman Maki, it was the best dish of the night with beef on top of the roll, crunchy garlic with rice, and the tuna, it was a prefect balance. Then comes the cauliflower, it was good however I think it was too much sauce on it. The disappointment comes when the Octopus and Negi Maki arrives. Negi Maki was a little to salty, it has too much sauce and it was a little over cooked. Then the octopus was under cooked, I like octopus has more texture, but this is too soft for my taste. The last two dish were really disappointing. Lastly the dessert Hojicha Cheesecake was great way to end the dinner, it is not too sweet with salted caramel and chocolate. Overall great experience just two main dishes didn't tasted as good. I will give it another try again. read more

I am going to start off by saying this is a beautiful restaurant. The style/decor and lay out is perfection from the hotel lobby and throughout the hotel. The sunset from this rooftop is also quite spectacular. Service: The hostess needs training. She provided a deadpan stare upon our entry with no greeting, simply "do you have a reservation"...I said "Hello" twice before she finally provided a proper greeting. Not a great start. Our waitress was very friendly and informative. I think they may have been short staffed because it took a long time for her to get back to us a few times for which she was apologetic. Food: I was unable to enjoy quite a few items on the menu because anything fried is fried in the same oil in which a popular allergen is cooked in...Shrimp. There's no reason why reused oil contains contents of popular allergens like pork or any type of shellfish. It was quite disappointing. I could not get fried red snapper or the potatoes or sweet potatoes in my roll...it was very limiting. But I'm grateful that I was informed because I did not carry my pen that evening so....that would've been disastrous Cleanliness: Tables weren't being cleared off and cleaned properly and we had to watch our waitress wipe contents off the table with her bare hand for us to sit. My biggest ick was when I went to the restroom and a waitress flushed the toilet, exited the stall and walked right outside the restroom without washing her hands. I was frozen in pure shock. Not a drop of water or soap. The thought of her touching eating utensils, cups, plates, tabletops, cards, receipts just made me nauseous. That behavior is 1000% unacceptable and quite frankly gross. I wish I had followed her to put in a complaint but I did not come to ensure health code protocol. I told my friend what happened and we left. I'm sad it ended this way and would've loved to return but with limited menu options due to a shellfish allergy and employees not washing their hands after using the restroom...I would not recommend. read more

Mizu - View from the rooftop bar - Seafood Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Came here for my birthday dinner and it was everything we could've asked for! The food was good, but it's really atmosphere that really make this place special. Our server, Alida, was so kind and immediately helped to make our dinner special. The firecracker shrimp is your typical bang bang shrimp and was well made. The brussel sprouts were the perfect crispy with great flavor. The tuna tataki was good but I kind of wish they used a different cracker. Not sure how to describe it but still good. The seared bass was delicious!! I'm pretty picky with overcooked fish and this was made perfectly. The grilled oysters could've done without the spicy mayo which just doesn't pair well with the rest of the seasoning so we just scooped it off. We finished off our meal with a nice birthday dessert! The creme brûlée was good but I think I'd prefer a regular crème brûlée over the flavor they had. The food is a bit overpriced but you're paying for the environment and elegance of it so it's still worth it if you're celebrating something special. Overall, recommend! read more

Mizu topped my expectations and I couldn't be happier. The ambiance was great. It was at the top of the Hyatt with great views of south park. The indoor & outdoor areas had a lot of seating with a ton of good vibes. The cocktails we're well worth the price. They were dangerously good. I went to Mizu for a friends birthday and they were extremely accommodating. Our server was 10/10 with going above & beyond to make it a special evening. Mizu is known for their tapas for good reason. They were all delicious. If I had to pick my top three I'd say the firecracker shrimp, prawn cocktail, & Octopus. The Salmon sliders we're so good, but beware they're filling. I'll see you in the near future Mizu. Great date night spot. read more

Came to this establishment with a group of friends. We made reservations as recommended by our hotel (the same building that this restaurant is apart of, Hotel Centric) for Sunday evening trying to have a nice meal before we leave the next day. There weren't many tables that were taken and we were seated immediately. Drinks and appetizers were ordered and were received in a decently timed manner. However once we finished the drinks we began to order two at a time due to the time it took to receive the first round. There was one bartender, but as mentioned before the establishment was not busy. Main entrees were ordered, several sushi rolls, CAB short rib ($69), and sides to be paired with dinner. We were made aware that the short rib was going to take 30 minutes to prepare and we agreed to the time. An hour passes and our first round of sushi has arrived! Now as a sushi eater I know that freshly rolled sushi paper is not soggy and has not clinged to the rice unless it's been sitting out for a long while. Well that's how all of our sushi rolls arrived. We questioned our waitress why the seaweed paper was soggy and to our avail she just apologized for the inconvenience. We unfortunately did not get to eat the sushi as they were taken away due to our not liking them. We asked about our short ribs at this time because our friends have began to receive their main entrees. We were told it would be a little while longer. We waited patiently and as another hour passes we asked for the manager to find out where the main entree could possibly be. He said it would be right out and that they are working with a skeleton crew on a Sunday evening. Per the manager the wait time for this dish was going to be an unreasonably amount of time. We weren't notified about this amount of time and unfortunately have lost our appetite from waiting 2.5 hours for a meal. The manager was completely useless in correcting these mistakes and still had the audacity of charging me for a complete bill of $770. The waitress was somewhat helpful by telling us to at the owner or other manager was going to be contacting me to correct this. Still have not received a phone call nor email from this person. I have tried many attempts to call and left my information for a follow up. Nada. Would not recommend this establishment to anyone with a group of people. read more

We wanted to love it, but couldn't. The service was spotty, she was either all about us or nowhere to be found for 15-20 minutes at a time. We sat at the row of tables when you first walk in- where there is a long banquette on one side and chairs on the other. The tables are way too close together and there is no need to squeeze people in like that where you could literally lean over and eat off the next table's plate! We had people 2 tables away on each side of us and they were listening to our conversation and we were hardly talking loudly, so we starting whispering so they couldn't hear us. Not a good start. We both ordered the pork chop. When the dishes came out, hers was a pork chop, but mine was not. They gave me some kind of red meat. At first glance the shape of the meats were similar, but you could clearly tell they weren't the same meat. I waited for the server to come back but no sign of her. So my friend was happy to take my dish and swap her pork chop with me. (see my photos below and you can tell the difference of the 2 meats). By the time the server did return, it was way too late to be sending food back or even acknowledge the error. No reason to go back and try again. read more

My second time visiting this hotel and restaurant and it was so good! I already had dinner so I just came here because I had a sweet tooth. Last time I came they had a really good ginger snap crème brûlée so I knew they would have good desserts. We sat at the bar since we weren't planning on having a big meal and the bartender was so awesome (wish I would have caught good name). He made me prob the best lemon drop martini I've ever had and my hub had a French connection and he too, said it was the best he's had and this same bartender is the reason he keeps coming back to this hotel. I can second that! I ordered the chocolate tahini cake but it was close between that and the matcha dome cuz I love love matcha. But the ginger cake scared me cuz it can either be good or really bad. But y'all this tahini cake was one of the best desserts I have ever had. The cake itself was sweet and decadent, perfect amount of chocolate for a chocolate lover like me. The white chocolate sesame crumble was surprisingly not sweet but it added the perfect texture and balanced out the sweetness of the cake and the black sesame ice cream just tied it all together. It was amazing. Please go try it because I'm not sure how long until they change their menu again. Hubby had a lobster tail and he said it was delicious. They chop it up so it's easier to eat and it was very flavorful. We loved our returning experience here especially with the sweet staff and clean and elegant establishment. I wouldn't mind being a returning customer every time I visit charlotte especially if their menu changes every time. It'll be nice to review different items! Definitely a 10/10 experience read more

I was visiting the city for the holidays and my sister insisted that I try this spot prior to my departure. As such, we put it on the agenda for the day of my arrival, the Wednesday prior to Christmas 2021. We arrived in the South Park area of Charlotte and pulled into the parking garage. Important note: there is a gate, but it opens as soon as you pull up to it. Parking is FREE for the patrons of the businesses in the area. Mizu is located on the 9th floor of the Hyatt Centric Hotel. When you step off the elevator you should immediately feel a shift in the atmosphere! This place is minimalistic , and modern chic at the same time. You are immediately greeted by the staff at the hostess stand. As my sister checked us in, I stepped out onto the patio. When I tell you that the views are amazing, please believe me. This spot would make the perfect backdrop for that special occasion. However, we opted for a table indoors, since it was a little chilly. However, they do have heaters on the patio, if you are ok with a little heat and cold combined. Once we were seated our wait staff came offer immediately to obtain our drink order. I opted to try the sparking water. Now I am on the hunt for someone with a restaurant buyers license so I can get my hands on this stuff for at home consumption. The water is by San Benedetto. Hands down the best sparking water I have ever tasted. Does anyone know how I can purchase it?? The wait staff provided us with menu's, however, she failed to bring us the Happy Hour Menu. I am glad my sister knew that it was a thing on Wednesday. Currently the happy hour is Monday to Wednesday from 5pm-7pm. This is a big deal because it gives you the opportunity to try several of the tapas for a stellar price! We opted for the following food items: 1. Hamachi Tartare 2. Tuna Crisp 3. Crispy Cauliflower 4. Soft shell slider 5. Thai Stick The food was very good. My favorite was the tartare, and then the tuna crisp and the crispy cauliflower will round off my top 3. Given that this spot promotes itself as a "seafood focused" establishment I would recommend trying the seafood options. This spot is truly the perfect combo of ambience meets good eats and stellar service. I look forward to patronizing this spot on my next visit to the Queen City! read more

We were greeted by complimentary valet. Then we were greeted immediately by our hostess who was very attentive. I had a Hennessy side car which was made to perfection. I also tried the Saikyo Salmon which was heavenly! The sauce was very spicy but I love spicy! It paired well with the Salmon which was not over seasoned. The crispy fried potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the Inside. This went well with the salmon sauce. The mushrooms didn't have much flavor but were still good. Lastly, the Brussels sprouts were cooked Al dente with good flavor. I love that they still felt healthy and not greasy like most restaurants. The ambiance was very beautiful and relaxing. Perfect view from most tables. read more

I arrived to Mizu to meet a group of friends for drinks and dinner. I had to ask the young lady outside where the restaurant was located as I was really unsure. After my ascend to the 9th floor (?) I walked out to the lobby of the restaurant. It was dimly lit and there was a small bar to the right of the hostess stand. We met on a Monday evening right when it opened (5 pm). This was great idea. We didn't have to wait for a table as we were ushered right in. Our waiter was pleasant and he made sure we were taken care of. I ordered a vodka with OJ and Pineapple which was good and strong. My friend sent her Midori sour back saying it was too strong, but she is a light weight, and that drink was not strong at all. Anyway, we all ordered dinner. Everyone else ordered dinner a few minutes ahead of me as I was a little late to the party LOL. I ordered the salmon for $28. When the meals arrived, they all looked incredible. The salmon was oh so good, but I was left still hungry. I don't mind paying for dinner but for a $50 tab with tip, I should be full. I went home and had spaghetti. It was disappointing. I will not return here as I know that I will just end up leaving not totally satisfied. read more

Mizu is located on the 9th floor at the Hyatt Hotel in South Park. The restaurant was very nice but overlooked a parking lot. They do have patio seating but was closed due to the rain. Order: edamame, hamachi tartare, spicy gyu buns, octopus, and ginger crème brûlée Edamame was served with sea salt and a fried onion oil. Haven't had bad edamame before and this wasn't any different. Hamachi tartare was served on a tortilla chip. Since my experience with Mari in NYC, I'm more adventurous with rare fish. The tartare was prepared very well, couldn't tell it was fish or uncooked. No smell and no weird texture. Spicy gyu buns were ground beef served on a bao bun. When I think of "banh bao" (the Vietnamese version of "bao") I think of a seasoned pork, egg, sausage, and mushroom center with a sweet dough. I've had different meat served with bao before such as duck, bbq pork, pork belly and chicken, and they all shared a similar taste profile. I would describe the spicy gyu buns as taco meat served on a bao bun. "Mexican meets Asian" did not pair well. For lack of the proper terminology, the spice were not Asian spices that I could taste. And lastly the octopus; presentation was nice but the meat had a weird texture. Not what is usually expected of octopus. It was gritty; could have been old, overcooked or soaked too long in marinade. The side salad was dressed with what tasted like balsamic. Not sure if balsamic is a common thing in Japanese cuisine but I wasn't expecting it as a dressing. Our server was very nice and appreciated feedback as the restaurant changes their menu quarterly. So after giving her this same review, she offered us a complimentary dessert. I chose the cream brûlée, which was ginger flavored and served with a cinnamon cookie. It was different from what I'm used too but it was good nonetheless. I will return to try new items they add to the menu. Happy eating Yelpers. read more

I loved Mizu! One of the best spots in town with a great view of the city and a patio to die for. Our service was also fantastic. All around a great place to dine. Parking is easy, there is valet or a free deck to park in. The restaurant is on the 9th floor of the hotel so you just take the elevator all the way up. They also have a room for large parties/events. As for the food - the cali love sushi role and seaweed salad was amazing. The cauliflowet is also fantastic. Not pictured is the shrimp toast - I had a taste of my friends and that was also amazing. Our waitress was great and very accommodating.

You know the vibes‼ I'm always game for a nice rooftop . Mizu is located on top of the Hyatt hotel in the greater South Park area . Parking is a breeze you can park in the parking deck which is free to park . Once you arrive it's like a breathe of fresh air walking out onto the rooftop area . Super cute & a whole entire vibe outside . Our drinks were well crafted, one of the drinks we ordered was not just Smokey in taste but it came with a up in smoke flames presentation which I am always here for the dramatics when it comes to my food & drinks. Keep in mind here at Mizu everything is recommended for sharing so they are tapas style . We ordered the soft shell crab sliders, Cali love rolls , & tiger king shrimp , with coconut parfait dessert . Everything was to die for except neither of us was c not too crazy about the dessert it was more so the texture of it more than anything . Will I be back here ? Heck yes & soon . I'm going back for that famous fire & ice dessert I keep hearing about . Hopefully they are not sold out when I go back . read more

Mizu an upscale restaurant in South Park Charlotte has an immaculately beautiful interior. Found on the ninth floor of the hotel building it has surrounding windows giving you unobscured views of the city below. When I went it was raining and really added to the vibe of the restaurant. In contrast to the decor and vibe I thought the food was good but not remarkable. The grilled octopus was cooked very well done and was tough when I expected it to be a bit more chewy. The flavor was good but maybe could've used some more seasoning. (3/5) the salmon I thought was cooked well and was decent (3.5/5). The shrimp and grits were a definite highlight, the grits were creamy and the shrimp had tons of flavor, this I would recommend (4.5/5) . Disappointedly I did not enjoy the shrimp toast very much, I thought it was lacking for what it was (2/5). Finally I found the service immaculate, huge shoutout to our server Rob, who made the entire experience amazing and felt very friendly. He was an excellent server who was very attentive and helpful. Overall nice place, definitely a bit pricer but a good date night spot for all the above mentioned reasons. I would also recommend the matcha tequila drink, I thought it was done nicely read more

My friend and I came here on a Saturday evening. We made reservations in advance (which you can easily do online). I really liked the location and the rooftop patio seems like it would be fun in the warmer months. For food, we opted to try a variety of items. We started off with the Tempura Cauliflower appetizer which was AMAZING. If we weren't tempted to try other items on the menu, we may have ordered a second one. Then we tried the Cali Love Roll. I was so intrigued by a sushi roll having Brie cheese in it. The flavors came together perfectly. Next up was the Spicy Gyu Buns. I didn't like these as much because they had a sweet flavor to them (in addition to the spice). My friend enjoyed them though. After that came the Firecracker Shrimp and the Negi Maki (steak). I was a fan of the shrimp! We then ordered the drunken pineapple to curve our sweet tooth. We felt like the seasonings were too much and it didn't hit the spot. So, of course we had to order dessert. We couldn't agree on which one to get so I opted for the cheesecake and she went with the ginger crème brûlée. I'm not a fan of ginger, but the cheesecake was perfect! read more

We must have gone to this restaurant on their off night. I was excited to try this restaurant after seeing so many 5 stars reviews. First the hostess seated us in the back corner with a view of the kitchen and across from a booth. She never asked if I wanted a booth even though that's in my Open Table profile. We couldn't tell they have a great rooftop because we couldn't see it. The rooftop looked great from the pictures other Yelpers had posted. This restaurant is on top of the Hyatt Southpark BTW. Our drinks were well made so the bartender was very competent. Our first dish was Softshell Crab Sliders and they were delicious. Then the Thai stick - grilled octopus came. It was chewy and a bit burnt so someone definitely left it on the grill too long. The papaya salad actually was well executed and very comparable to a good Thai restaurant. Our dinner were Hamachi collar and duck breast. Both were well seasoned and delicious but the duck breast was also overcooked. Our desserts were good not great. Service was good but not a five star service you would expect from the price of the meal. The overall experience can be described as "underwhelming ". I would say it's a typical hotel restaurant but I can't say it was a five stars experience, more like a 3-1/2 stars. Maybe if we could experience or see the rooftop, I might felt like giving it a four stars. read more

We love Mizu -- every experience is new yet so consistent. Every meal is unique and each dish is so fresh and flavorful. Tonight was no exception. Tonight we came for our one year anniversary - the ambience was romantic and upbeat (and so moody in the best way). We came and we ATE. We are our familiars and some new ones as well -- we loved every bite. Also tonight's playlist was a bop -- we had a great time.

The menu was so enticing I had to try it. The location sounded wonderful with a rooftop dining area with a view. Both were overrated. The hamachi portion was minuscule but it was only $19 and the cheapest thing I ordered. I decided to splurge on the lobster hand roll. The lobster was not fresh and I wonder if it really was lobster. For $26 for 1 roll I thought it would be delicious. The few pieces of the lobster looking meat did not taste like lobster at all. Not sure what I was consuming. The worst of the dishes was the lobster fried rice. I have had this before at other restaurants and it was amazing. Mizu's was the worst. Again it could not have been lobster. Reddish pieces of something was in there but I could not taste any lobster. And what I did taste was unappetizing. I could not continue eating it. I paid $136 for 4 food items and 2 glasses of wine. It was $150 after tip. Outrageous prices for terrible food. I have paid the same at Nobu Malibu but for exquisite food ocean front. And the 'view' deck? It overlooks industrial type buildings and is very unattractive. Nothing to see from up there. read more

Mizu located in South Park is finally off my list of restaurants i wanted to try out. I invited the girls out on a Friday night. The ambiance was nice but I was shocked to see when we walked in the score was low rated at 91. Once seated I started with the lychee martini and it was actually to my liking. We ordered a variety of different appetizers and entrees. I will say my favorites was the BBQ Cauliflower Hamachi, Bao Buns, Sea Bass, Shrimp and Grits and last the infused pineapples. The service wasn't the best although our waiter did his best to make sure we're satisfied. We didn't receive all of our orders from some reason so the manager offered dessert for free. So while doing my research after leaving to why the score was so low. I'm appalled and dismayed. I have to be more careful of viewing the fancy ambiance verses is this establishment really clean and are the meals really being stored properly to prevent food poisoning. read more
