Taiyaki NYC - Boston

I've been dying to try their ice cream, finally today for the first time the line wasn't bad at all. The space is small with very few seats inside (about 4 bar stools) but probably because of COVID no indoor seating. However there are plenty of seats outside the shop. The service was quick and the cashier was very patient with us. We had 4 kids under the age of 6 that kept on changing their orders. Everything we chose was good and the price was good. For those who don't like ice cream or would like something warmer as the weather is starting to get chilly, they serve coffee as well.
2 months later, we stopped by again. We were very lucky, no line, in and out. The matcha holiday special is DELICIOUS. In the summer we had tried watermelon and mango which now is strawberry and mango, still good. We are definitely coming back!

Taiyaki NYC is an absolute delight. The ice cream and Taiyaki are indulgent and delicious. The souffle pancakes are also worth a trip if you can get there during the magic brunch window. They're slow going in the morning, best to get there after noon but before 2pm. Any wait is worth it.

A twist on ice cream. Had a chocolate with red bean paste. Tasted good, but melted really fast. Not sure if it was the recipe or the blistering heat outside!!
Ice cream comes in a fish shaped cone; the frozen treat goes in the mouth of the fish.
The fish cone was attractive but not tasty; not at all crispy, but soft and chewy.

Very sweet ice cream, good on a hot day. The taiyaki is just a bit crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Fun to build your own: I got the mango ice cream with red bean filling and coconut flakes.

Line may look long at times, but moves pretty quick.

Melts fast, so consider finishing in the lovely courtyard space before continuing your Seaport adventures.

You know how you read a great review , you get there and find a line, you wonder , is it really that good? YES! It is so good , the "cone" alone is worth the trip. The ice cream was cold and creamy and flavorful. You get your choice of several toppings. It is not cheap but go ahead and treat yourself this one time .
