Osaka Takoyaki Market

Osaka is home of Okonomiyaki! 🐙 This market is a food court of different tacoyaki shops, so the reviews can get a bit complicated 😂 I ate at the one to the left of the giant tacoyaki tower, which had beef tendon yaki. I wanted to try something different and I'm so glad I did! Amazing. 🍻 Beers and highball, too! 💳 Takes credit card Can order at a machine or a person. I went to a person so I could point at the menu, the machine had complicated navigation for a not-amazing Japanese speaker.

The concept of this place for trying many different kinds of Tatoyaki is great, but “Kukuru” here was the worst Tatoyaki quality I have ever had. Their service was terrible, and their quality of Tatoyaki (especially Akashiyaki) was the worst. Anyone can do better than them. Do not go to “Kukuru” here. “Juhachiban” gave us great services but Takotaki itself was okay. Anyway, I recommend going to a proper Takoyaki restaurant for 100% sure.

3.5 ⭐️ Reasonable price point for its offerings, making it a convenient spot to grab a bite. The four-flavor takoyaki set was enjoyable, though the original flavour stood out as the best. While the pieces of octopus were of good quality, the takoyaki itself leaned on the doughy side, which might not appeal to everyone. A decent option for a quick and affordable takoyaki fix
