I haven't ordered from this restaurant in a while, but every time I do, it's always perfect! The little fishes in the Bourgeois (Boo R-Zhwah) are so adorable and so tasty, with a variety of fillings to choose from. The side of fruit is always fresh, and the porlions are great - filling, but not overly so.
Love Cafe Taiyaki!

Wow! The Bourgeois was phenomenal! I chose the hazelnut filling,and the blueberry cream cheese, which were both delicious! The Latte is probably one of the best I've ever had. You can taste the quality of the espresso beans, and it was made perfectly. The fruit was also so fresh, and the portion size was perfect! I will 100% order again, and tell all of my friends it is a must try!

Been ordering from this place every so often since even before the pandemic and have never had a bad experience. Staff is always very kind & accommodating, food is always delicious, the taiyaki batter is top notch, and the variety of sweet & savory options are wonderful.
Mini Gangs (6 Pcs.) are always stuffed so full of filling they practically burst in your mouth at the first bite. How satiated you are from 6 pcs will depend on you and which fillings you choose, but the portions are great.
Their taiyaki sandwiches are flavourful. The outside is crispy—almost crunchy? but not in a way that hurts the mouth—like the best kind of grilled sandwich dreams of while the inside is still fluffy. Recently had the Ham 'n Cheese and once I hit the packet of filling it was a huge burst of flavour in my mouth. I'd like it more if there was a bit more filled area and less edges? But still delicious. Pricey but not expensive for what it is.
Definitely a fave place for a light brunch!

The Bacon & Egg is a perfect combo of sweet, spicy and salty, it makes a great treat breakfast. You aren't going to get anything this good for a price this reasonable anywhere else in the city
