It was love... I mean Tako is something I could eat, but never yearned for, this place changed that. Sure maybe it was the quaint mom pops place attractiveness, eavesdropping on the owner asking a young customer about his mother, but really it was the special sauce on the Tako that got me.

This is good takoyaki!
The texture is perfect. The outer surface is slightly crispy, and the inside soft.
Service is friendly and fast too.
Highly recommended.
