Spicy Takoyaki in Calgary NE - Octopus Balls with Heat

4.4 out of 5 · 244 Google reviews

Spicy Takoyaki is the classic with a kick. The same dashi batter and tender octopus are cooked to order on the griddle, then finished with a spicy sauce that layers heat over the sweet-savoury takoyaki base. Japanese mayo cools it down, bonito flakes and nori bring the umami, and green onion keeps every bite bright.

About Our Spicy Takoyaki

Heat works on takoyaki because the batter is creamy - the spice has something to settle into instead of scorching the palate. We build the spice into the finish rather than the filling, so you still taste the dashi and the octopus underneath.

It is the order we recommend to guests who already know the classic and want something with more edge, and it is a popular after-work snack for spice lovers around 32 Avenue NE. If you are sharing, order one spicy and one classic and let the table compare.

"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."
