nikkiDecember 11, 2016those red bean pancakes are the BUSINESS. you're going to want more than one, but they are best fresh!
My VanJanuary 3, 2015Imagawayaki was so good. So warm and fluffy and good balance of sweetness. Really interesting watching them make it!
Florence HFebruary 6, 2015We got the takoyaki balls and mochi balls on a stick with a sweet, salty soy sauce glaze. Definitely preferred the mochi over the takoyaki. Rice balls looked delicious, will have to try next time.
Diana ArzAugust 11, 2017Absolutely delicious yakitori. We came back for more! The mochi and the pork are amazing 😍
LoanApril 17, 2019The red bean cake is delicious, and you can watch how they make them through the window. That’s what drew us in.
The imagawayaki is a perfect snack or dessert for any occasion...especially when it's fresh and hot. Yummm.
- Glazed DonutDecember 24, 2015The takoyaki is actually smaller and not as good as I expected. 2.50 for 3. Anyway, it's a good experience.
@JaumePrimeroDecember 9, 2012The next best thing to Red Bean cakes late night in Roppongi! Delicious and totally worth it for 2 bucks.
Pocket SunAugust 24, 2014Red bean cake, takoyaki, macaroon ice cream sandwich, fish cake, rice cake...
Yejin YooJuly 6, 2013It's pretty hard to just pass by and not try the freshly made imagawayaki. One of the best!
Very yummy and quick service! Takoyaki, mitarashi dango, imagawayaki! Everytime I am in Little Tokyo I have to stop here.
Love the Imagawayaki and Sui Mai. It's fun to watch how she makes the imagawayaki.
Jason CookJanuary 7, 2010If you're strolling anywhere nearby here, there's just no reason not to get 1 or 2 Imagawayaki while you're at it. They taste mighty good, and are hard to come by elsewhere.
