“Great takoyaki and a lively atmosphere in Shibuya!”
Gindaco Highball Sakaba is a great spot to experience Shibuya's nightlife in a casual, energetic Japanese bar setting. The location is perfect for stopping by during an evening exploring Shibuya, whether you're looking for a quick bite or a place to relax with a drink. The atmosphere is definitely ...part of the experience. It's lively, a little noisy, and full of energy, exactly the kind of Japanese nightlife vibe we were hoping to find. The food was a highlight, especially the takoyaki! They were beautifully golden and crispy on the outside, while the inside was soft, fluffy, and almost doughnut-like, with pieces of octopus in the center. We also tried the noodles, which were decent but fairly basic. I'd definitely recommend prioritizing the takoyaki. The drinks were another pleasant surprise. They offer non-alcoholic cocktails, which is great if you want to enjoy the bar atmosphere without drinking alcohol. I tried an apple cider vinegar-based drink that tasted like a lightly sparkling apple juice, less sweet and pleasantly tangy. Really refreshing! It's a casual spot rather than a formal dining experience, making it a nice choice for a relaxed evening snack and drinks. Overall, Gindaco Highball Sakaba is worth visiting for its delicious takoyaki, lively atmosphere, and fun Japanese bar experience. Come for the takoyaki, stay for the Shibuya nightlife!

“Bad and rude”
This outlet at Toho building has a very rude waiter, be careful, he scream at me and challenges me to a fight, waving his hands high in the air. Tourists please be careful when you are dining at this outlet, nobody will help you at all, you're on your own. Do not dine here if possible, there are so ...many food outlets around

“Takoyaki bar”
This is a shop in Kabukicho where you can enjoy takoyaki and drinks. Takoyaki was tasty, and the highball was cold and so tasty.

“Worth trying”
Yummy with decent sized squid. I recommend giving it a try if you are in the area but I would not go out of my way to find this place.

“Superb Takoyaki”
Stopped in here for a light bite. The takoyaki octopus balls were superb, as were the Gyoza The price was very reasonable as well. Will certainly return another night.
