Cheesy Takoyaki in Calgary NE - Melted Cheese Octopus Balls

4.4 out of 5 · 244 Google reviews

Cheesy Takoyaki adds melted cheese to the batter so every ball pulls when you break it open. The dashi base and octopus stay front and centre, the cheese makes the creamy centre even richer, and the usual finish of takoyaki sauce, Japanese mayo, bonito flakes and nori ties it together. It is the crowd-pleaser of our takoyaki lineup.

Cheesy Takoyaki at Takoyami Japanese Street Foods - melted cheese octopus balls in Calgary NE

About Our Cheesy Takoyaki

Cheese and dashi are a natural pair - both are savoury and rich, and together they make the inside of a takoyaki ball almost molten. We add it as the batter sets so it melts through the centre rather than leaking out onto the pan.

This is the version families order for kids and the one we suggest for guests who like their street food comforting. Order it hot and eat it right away, while the cheese is still stretching.

"I highly recommend visiting this establishment for Takoyaki, particularly on Tuesdays when they offer a special promotion: buy one, get one free. They have a wide variety of topping options available. Additionally, the Japanese dessert Taiyaki, filled with custard, is delightful."

"A great spot for japanese street food! We had the classic takoyaki and beef japadog. Both very flavourful and piping hot. Probably one of the only places in Calgary that serves takoyaki fresh off the griddle and not from frozen packs."

"The service was good. The atmosphere was clean. The takoyakis were okay - could be better as they could have bigger toppings. But overall, good."
