Takoyaki (octopus balls) and beer for 500 yen is amazing. I wish there was a bit more dashi flavor, but they are still delicious with a nice crunch. There are tables and benches outside the shop, but it can get really crowded depending on the timing, so you might have to wait. Many people also get their takoyaki to go.

This is a takoyaki restaurant in Okachimachi where you can enjoy a casual drink. They offer takoyaki starting from 6 pieces for 450 yen, 8 pieces for 550 yen, and larger quantities like 12, 15, and 30 pieces. They also have a unique takosen, which is 2 takoyaki with plenty of tempura scraps sandwiched in between for 300 yen. They have a drink set as well, where you can get 4 takoyaki with a choice of beer, lemon sour, highball, or a soft drink for 500 yen. The prices for alcohol and soft drinks are quite affordable, with beer priced at 300 yen, and other drinks like sour, highball, and soft drinks at 200 yen, and oolong tea at 100 yen. I chose highball this time, which was perfect for a casual drink.

Good morning. I'm Private Tsuchinoko, and I felt like eating takoyaki, so I came to Meidai Hiden no Ajigemu @ Ueno. Today, I'm getting takeout. I arrived at 12 o'clock. This shop offers authentic Osaka-style takoyaki! I had takoyaki takeout once before and it was very delicious, so I decided to repeat the purchase. The price of takoyaki depends on how many you buy, so I ordered 6 takoyaki. You can choose from the following flavors: sauce, salt, salt and pepper, soy sauce, and ginger soy sauce. Last time, I chose "ginger soy sauce," so this time I asked for "salt and pepper." When I opened the container at home... Wow! Looks delicious! I asked for no mayonnaise to bring out the dashi flavor! I tried one right away... The filling is so creamy! It was a bit firm last time, but this time it was more to my liking! The umami of the dashi spreads in your mouth. The octopus texture is also chewy and full of flavor. Although I asked for "salt and pepper," I felt like there was not enough pepper. It might be good to sprinkle some black pepper at home! I haven't tried the sauce flavor yet, so I would like to try it next time. It was so delicious! I want to get takeout again (´∀｀) Thank you to everyone who reads my reviews. Although my writing may be lacking, I hope it can be helpful for evaluating dishes.

On this day, three friends went bar hopping. Along the elevated tracks from Ueno to Okachimachi, there are many restaurants such as izakayas, diners, sushi restaurants, and yakiniku shops. Particularly noticeable are the standing bars and casual drinking spots. They offer very reasonable prices, so it's hard to decide where to go. While walking around, we came across a takoyaki shop from Osaka called "Jugemu Ueno Branch." One of my friends said they wanted to eat takoyaki, so we decided to share it while drinking. The drinks like draft beer and highballs are only 300 yen, which is a great deal. ★Takoyaki (8 pieces for 550 yen) The freshly baked takoyaki was served hot and crispy on the outside, with a gooey center. As soon as you put it in your mouth, the flavor of the takoyaki sauce spreads, followed by the chewy texture of the octopus. ★Tako Senbei (300 yen) The Tako Senbei was served with two pieces of sauce-flavored rice crackers sandwiching hot takoyaki and tempura scraps. The crispy texture followed by the flavor of takoyaki is very delicious. After everyone had two glasses of draft beer, let's head to the next place. Thank you for the meal.

When I drink alcohol, I always crave takoyaki. So, I went to a third place for some! First, I got 8 pieces of takoyaki with sauce and mayo. I had it with a lemon sour. Then, my stomach was feeling a bit off, so I ordered an additional 6 pieces. I added green onions for an extra 100 yen, and they were so good! I thought it was a generous portion. I prefer takoyaki that is soft and fluffy rather than crispy, but I felt like these were a bit too loose. Still, they were delicious!

I don't know how many times I've been to Ueno over the years, but whenever I get hungry, I always eat here. In the past, the takoyaki used to be 200 yen, but the price has gone up. Today, I had 4 takoyaki at Minatoya before coming here. Hmm, Juugemu is still delicious. The outside is crispy and has a nice fragrant flavor. It's really tasty. The inside is so soft that it collapses quickly, but it doesn't have that strange wheat-like bitterness. It looks like it would still be delicious even when cold, but eating it while huffing and puffing in the cold is the best. You can sit a little bit in front of Juugemu. There is a lot of foot traffic, but it doesn't bother me. I think Juugemu is a precious place where you can eat takoyaki like this in Osaka. I'll come back often!

This is a takoyaki shop located on the street in Ameyoko. I ordered a draft beer for 400 yen and 6 pieces of takoyaki for 430 yen. You can choose the sauce, so I chose mustard mayo as a topping. There are tables outside the shop where you can eat if they are available. The inside of the takoyaki is soft and creamy, warming you up from the inside. The combination of sauce and mustard mayo is delicious. This shop offers a variety of sauces and toppings for you to enjoy.

When I come to Ueno, I always go to my favorite takoyaki shop, but today I arrived late and it was already closed, so I searched around and found this place. It was my first time here. ★What I ordered this time ◎10 pieces of takoyaki for 680 yen The ordering process is written on the menu. First, choose the number of takoyaki, then choose the flavor and toppings. It came relatively quickly. There is no seating inside the shop, but there are benches in front of it where you can eat. The inside is hot and gooey, so be careful not to burn yourself. It was really delicious (^^) Thank you for the meal~

This is one of the few takoyaki shops in Ueno, but I wouldn't recommend it. The staff are unfriendly, and even if they spill your drink, they won't apologize. The takoyaki here is just average, nothing special. If you're going to eat takoyaki, I think it's better to go to "Minatoya" where it's cheaper and better. The attitude of the staff can really affect how you perceive the food and your overall experience. It's a shame that this place is disappointing.

I finished work, the COVID restrictions have been lifted. To charge into the fierce battleground of Okachimachi, a solid strategy is needed. First, I had takoyaki and highball at the first restaurant. Settling my hungry stomach, I planned out my next moves in a solo strategy meeting. It's just perfect for times like this, takoyaki and highball. Be careful not to burn yourself as it's piping hot, sitting on the bench in front of the store, watching the flow of people in Okachimachi. Well, now that today's plan is set! Thank you for the meal!

Do you know about the "Gindako" vs "Kyotako" war? It started about 20 years ago and ended quickly, with "Kyotako" stores one after another turning into "Gindako". The difference in the number of takoyaki pieces in each plate may have made "Gindako" seem like a better deal. The takoyaki here tastes and looks like the "Kyotako" ones. Currently, I have only found "Kyotako" at Asakusa Station and a mall with a movie theater in Kasukabe. If you are interested, please try it out. Takoyaki is 6 pieces for 400 yen, and beer is also 400 yen. But if you buy takoyaki, you get 100 yen off the beer, so it's a good deal.

Before returning to the hotel, I like to buy a chu-hi from the chu-hi shop. I don't want to buy snacks at the chu-hi shop, so I always look for something just right. I found takoyaki, and it even says it's the taste of Osaka. I like it. It's 6 pieces for 400 yen for takeout. I bring them back to the hotel and enjoy them with chu-hi. I take ice from the ice maker, pour water and ice into the chu-hi. Takoyaki tends to get soggy when taken back to the hotel, so I always think it's better to eat them on the spot. But the soft texture is also delicious.

While staying in Ueno, I found myself feeling a bit hungry but most restaurants were closed early. As a last resort, I could have gone to a convenience store, but in the end, I stumbled upon this shop and decided to stop by. I bought a pack of 10 and enjoyed them in my hotel room. It took about 10 minutes before I could eat them, so they ended up being quite soft, but still delicious. Much better than bland convenience store food, these were warm and really hit the spot in this situation.

Was this place previously a kebab shop? Feeling like a ticket maniac, I visited the shop because I love takoyaki. Hmm, I want to drink beer... but I'll hold off for now. The inside is so delicious! I'll definitely visit again.

It's really cheap! I enjoyed beer and lemon sour while eating deliciously gooey takoyaki! The staff were very friendly, so I definitely want to visit again when I go to Ueno.

Tonight, let's go drinking in Ueno. However, it's not good to drink on an empty stomach. I uploaded a photo of takoyaki today. Now, where should I go tonight? Thank you for the meal!

The takoyaki was delicious and creamy! The staff was also very friendly.

I ordered 10 pieces of takoyaki for 650 yen from a famous takoyaki chain store, which were slightly smaller in size. I took them home and ate them after 20 minutes. My first impression was that the taste and sauce were a bit mild. I chose to have only sauce without mayonnaise, and added my spicy mayonnaise at home (for 2 pieces). I initially thought I would only eat half, but ended up finishing all of them. Even though I thought the taste was mild, it was surprisingly delicious. The sauce seemed to have a nice blend with dashi. Overall, it was not too heavy and I finished them all quickly. I think they would taste even better if eaten fresh.
