As good if not better than the ramens I have had in NYC and Hawaii. The service was polite and on point. Everything was as served fresh/hot and I was checked on frequently. The place has the typical Japanese decor. I sat at the sushi bar but on a Sunday night it was pretty empty. I definitely recommend this place.

We went in on a busy-ish Saturday afternoon. We had a party of three and were seated after a few…read moreminutes of waiting. Once we were seated our waiter took our order. We got our drinks (waters) and waited about 15-20 minutes or so for our first order to come out. We did order a decent amount but I wasn't a fan of how everything came in waves. We received our appetizers first (miso soup) and Yellowtail Shooters. We had to wait another 15-20 minutes for another dish to come out. Our friend had ordered some nigiri and the sea bass or breem had a bone in it. We notified the waiter and they were kind enough to give him a different piece of nigiri. We had to wait another 30 minutes or so to get our orders of the Bluefin Tuna Deluxe. The Akami was fine but the otoro and chu toro were slightly fishy and had a lot of cartilage in it. I will say the wasabi sacue they have is pretty good but overall the wait times for our food and the fact that it came out in waves definitely hampered the experience as well as the mediocre tuna. The inside definitely felt more like a Chinese restaurant with the red and black design.

The tom kha was overly salty and the ginger lemonade was really sweet. Pad Thai and Khao soi were ok. Beef pho was terrible. Service was quick and good but the portion sizes were really small. Casual spot with reasonable prices. Definitely had much better Thai food but maybe this is typical for Thai food in this area? Note: The owner personally came out to apologize for the quality of the food and removed the disappointing items off of the bill, which I appreciate and was really kind of them.

Overall, if I had to recommend someone a restaurant in Asheville, Mizu would be my to-go place to eat! Definitely worth visiting!

Drunken noodle is a standard for Thai, and it is very easy to cook. They failed this standard dish and instead I got some kind of saucy-tangy drunken noodle - I believe it was made from a ready-made powder since it tasted chalky somehow. Positives: the meat, noodle, and basil were fresh. The server was attentive and the place was clean - not enough to save the day. I speculate this place is like most second rate ethnic places: Chinese made sushi, Mexican made italian, Laotian made Thai. It somehow does not work.

Like most places in West Asheville, it's a little on the funky side in terms of ambiance. But that just adds to the authenticity, as I felt like I was in some little beachside cafe or alleyway cafe someplace in Thailand. The staff here are very friendly and efficient, even with the place being packed on a Saturday evening. We skipped appetizers and headed right into entrees, which was a good thing, because the serving sizes here are more than ample (we had leftovers sharing two entrees between two of us, and we actually ate plenty at the restaurant). I like beer with spicy food and their beer selection was pretty limited, but I tried one of their Thai beers and it was very good and went great with our food. We had to try their massaman curry (with chicken), as it's sort of a standard for me, like lasagna in an Italian restaurant. It was served more like a ramen, as the curry sauce was thin-ish (not watery though, just not like some curries). But the sauce was so tasty we did eat some of it with a spoon. It included potatoes, carrots and a few other veggies on top, along with some ground peanuts (which I've never had served on top of massaman curry before -- they were a good complement). It came with a side of white rice (average). We also had the pad see-ew (with chicken). I hate it when the noodles in dishes like this are tough or chewy but the ones here were wonderful -- just the right texture. Again the sauce was amazing, a semi-sweet black soy sauce that had sort of a smoky flavor. A good mix of veggies were tossed in with the noodles and chicken. We ordered both dishes at a spice level of 3 (out of 5). Good spicy, but I might even go with 4 next time, as 3 was not all that spicy. As I noted, there were leftovers and they reheated well. So two meals out of one visit. They have a pretty extensive menu, so we'll definitely be back to try other things. I'd have to say this Thai restaurant was quite a bit different (in a good way) than any other Thai restaurant I've been to (and I've had a lot of Thai food over the years). I don't know if that means it is more authentically Thai whereas other places Americanize their food somewhat, or this particular chef just has her own cooking style of Thai food. Whichever, the seasoning or mixture of spices in the dishes here was excellent.
