"The takoyaki here is really good. I recommend getting the negi mayo flavor. They also offer mochi donuts at the stand."

"I ordered the regular takoyaki around their closing time. They gave me a completely cold serving instead of making a fresh batch. When I asked the worker why my food was cold, she flat-out told me to go warm it up using the food court microwave. No offer of explanation or apology. Don’t go here unless you want cold food and bad service."

"As avid Japanese food fan, I must say that I never had Takoyaki. The classic dish was simply amazing. Again, Mitsuwa and it's collection of food court restaurants did not disappoint me. Top notch good."

"I tried the one in SF before and had a good experience. So I was happy that there is another location in the south bay. But he takoyaki in this location is not freshly made, even though they claimed they are. I ordered 5 pieces tokoyaki and ate them in the food court immediately. The tokoyakis were soggy and cold inside. Added kimchi was $2-3 more. Wouldn’t recommend and won’t come back."

"Overall its a cheap Japanese lunch spot which value for money but don't expect to be wowed(except the mochi donut). The star dish here is the mochi donut not the takoyaki.I agree with the comments below that the takoyaki has only one small piece of octopus inside. On the other hand the mochi donut was phenomenal, it was mindblowingly delicious. Also had the okonomiyaki, unfortunately that was also not a pass from me as it was not like a traditional okonomiyaki."
