A tiny restaurant in the center of Turin, its dozen seats seem to condense the flavors of simple and delicious Japanese cuisine. Everything is delicious, especially the octopus balls from which the restaurant takes its name. A good selection of sake. Excellent service, delicate and courteous, makes the meal even more enjoyable, and for which Federica deserves special mention. Reasonable prices compared to the quality of the experience. Excellent

A small, centrally located restaurant; reservations are recommended.
The restaurant is very beautiful, clean, and full of character, decorated with Japanese prints and magazines in the language.
Thanks to a glass partition, you can watch the chef, who greets you with a smile, cooking the traditional takoyaki.
There were two of us, and we ordered several items: a takoyaki tasting menu with three different sauces to choose from, an onigiri, a tonkatsu bento, and a karage bento. My compliments especially went to the karage chicken, which was delicious.
They also stock a wide variety of traditional sakes, with a description of the sake and its place of origin, but they also have beers, cocktails, and soft drinks.
At the end of the evening, they even offered us hot tea.
About fifty people for two, but we ordered a lot of food, and I left out the drinks from the description, so considering everything, the price is very fair for both the quantity and quality of the food.
I highly recommend it.

Typical Japanese cuisine in a very small but charming and quaint restaurant.
I opted for a single-course bento containing edamame, azuki bean dorayaki, white rice with black sesame and ume, two pieces of takoyaki, katsuobushi and aonori, Japanese pickles, and sweet and sour karaage.
Everything was delicious and the flavors perfectly balanced.
To finish the meal, I ordered sake, and it didn't disappoint either.
I'll be back!

Everything was truly excellent. The place is small and comfortable (reservations are recommended to secure a table). The dishes are prepared with great care, and the service is attentive and helpful. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try typical Asian dishes.

I went for lunch with a friend and had a great time! My sweet and sour chicken bento was amazing!! The staff was helpful and very kind. The place is small, so reservations are essential. Excellent value for money! I highly recommend it.

Small but charming place. Reservations are required. The food is delicious. Ample. A full plate can feed two people and perhaps even allow you to try other specialties.
Excellent service. The girls are helpful and very kind. Fast service, clean and quaint place.
Highly recommended if you want to experience the authentic flavors of Japan.

The takoyaki are superb!
I've been going there since it opened a few years ago. The other dishes are also excellent, and the sake is unique.
The staff is very friendly.
The only downside is the size of the place and the smell of fried food you leave with.
It's still one of my favorite gourmet stops.

An exceptional and tiny gem in the heart of Turin: the Japanese chef prepares delicious dishes with an easily discernible passion.

A piece of Japan in the center of Turin. A well-stocked selection of takoyaki, but most importantly, each one is better than the last. They're well-cooked and generously filled.
The staff is incredibly kind and always attentive to the customer.
I simply fell in love.
