I ate Gindaco in Japan and was absolutely blown away by it, and was excited to see one here on the US. I stopped by here and tried it and don’t regret it. Although it tasted amazing, the sauce was a bit overpowering and sweet, but still very good. The left picture is Gardena and the right one is from Japan.

Friendly, quick and accurate service. Cant go wrong with the original. Also be sure to ask for a punch card.

Ordered their pork rice bowl. Wheres the pork? They were stingy on the pork slices, just a lot of onions. Not recommended.

The best takoyaki in the LA area! 🐙The takoyaki was freshly made. And they tasted so crispy, filled with small octopus pieces and came with a variety of flavorful toppings and sauces. 🤩I love all these three flavors, especially for the Cheese and Yuzu:🧀Cheese & Mentaiko: Came with teriyaki sauce, mentaiko mayo, parmesan, mozzarella cheese, and parsley flakes (Annys Choice)🌶Spicy Scallion& Sriracha: Topped with Sriracha⁣ spicy sauce, mayo, takoyaki glaze, scallion, and green onion🍶Scallion with Yuzu Ponzu: Similar to the original, but it topped with green onion and smoky bonito flakes, with a side of citrusy ponzu sauce for dipping

The best takoyaki. Crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. The best flavor for me is Mentaiko (fish roe). Its savory, a bit salty and blend so well with all the cheese. Then ! you eat it with the original takoyaki that will rinse your palette with some sweet sauce and salty bonito flakes. Just great!

Delicious, fresh made, steaming hot, well-made takoyaki! Only one can be called traditional - their original. The other is a mix of cultures - mentaiko and cheese (cheese wasnt all completely melted). And the last two are their spicy egg salad and sriracha - totally westernized. Missing are traditionals often found in Japan such as green onion with mayo, and even red ginger. These are made with a bit of oil for a crisper shell rather than the other takoyaki version thats not. The takoyaki was served fast, a few minutes, and went down well with the hojicha tea. The tea was delicious...but had so much ice that 3/4 of the cup was filled with ice once the tea was gone. A good deal for the price - reasonable at $6.50 for 8 original.

One of the best places for takoyaki in CA! Did not expect to enjoy the food this much but had some great food from this specialty store located in the Tokyo central market. I tried out the non original flavors and really enjoyed the cheese style ones and wish we got some of the original flavor. No current place to sit during COVID so either takeout or eat in the car but would say eat in the car so the outer layer stays crispy because it tastes so much better that way! Would highly recommend!

Absolutely the best takoyaki in Los Angeles! Came to the food court and found this place by accident, and this is always the best type of accident. If you are in the area, give this a try. Just a note, it does take 15-20 min to prep your order.

Taste was good but not great compared to authentic takoyaki. Served warm but not hot as they should be. Only served 8 at a time. A bit of a long wait around 20-25 min on a weekday afternoon.Health rating: C
