Taiyaki Chicago is a restaurant that specializes in taiyaki ice cream, offering a unique combination of a traditional Japanese pastry and creamy ice cream. The interior of the restaurant is sparse, but it is quiet, clean, and has a great atmosphere. The service is helpful and friendly, with employees greeting customers warmly. They have a build-your-own process for customers, allowing for many topping options. The taiyaki, or fish-shaped waffle cone, features a crispy exterior and a soft interior. The matcha soft serve has a robust flavor and is not overly sweet. However, some reviews noted that the taiyaki may be undercooked in parts, resulting in a thick and gummy texture. While the boba in the boba tea was mentioned as not fresh, the restaurant also offers smoothies for those not in the mood for ice cream. There is a good amount of seating available inside. Highlights of the Taiyaki Chicago experience include the vegan options, such as the black sesame ice cream and the delightful Taiyaki with ube, which customers have praised. Overall, Taiyaki Chicago stands out in an area full of great dessert options, making it a must-visit for those seeking a sweet treat.
