    First class experience from start to finish - well-deserving of its Michelin star rating. The staff was incredibly attentive - all the way down to noticing that I'm left-handed and placing my utensils to the left. Sushi chef David is a master of his craft and very patient in describing each piece of fish as well as some interesting facts along the way. This is sushi and fine dining at its best. Just be prepared for the price tag that goes along with the memorable food and experience.

    Mujo is a true dining experience. From the moment we walked inside we felt as if we were dining with friends. The team has a warm and friendly aura that I wasn’t expecting. The food was incredible from first bite the last. I won’t go into details because your experience will differ from ours. Each course was creative, beautiful, and delicious. It’s not just the taste that’s impressive, but presentation including, texture, smell, appearance, and pacing. It was a true performance and you should pay attention to the small details of you make a reservation. The ambiance it well designed with a dark room and lighting that brings the focus to the food and the people. The music was a blend of jazz and modern music with a little hip hop. It brought life and made it fun. The volume of the music was balanced to a point where you can have a conversation with your party but don’t hear the conversations around you. The team has a high attention to detail and was able to answer questions we had about the pairings and dining style. We felt welcome and at home. We are very pleased with the experience and would recommend the experience to anyone, especially those who are adventurous and appreciate an experience where thought and effort go into providing something special. Thank you to everyone who made the night memorable.

    My wife and I went for her birthday dinner. Fantastic special occasion place. The sushi is of the highest quality, the service top notch, and we found the wine pairings to be one the most interesting/delicious we’ve experienced in a long while. Mujo definitely deserves its place amongst the best fine dining establishments in the southeast.

    Another amazing experience at Mujo. It’s more than dinner. The entire staff is welcoming it often feels like you’re at dinner with a bunch of friends. The pairings are on point. Chef Jordan is an artist along with the rest of the team.
