Upon tasting it, the strong garlic and fish powder flavors certainly give it a Taiwanese mazesoba-like taste. However, the chicken flavor and aroma are quite strong, so if you ate it without knowing the product name, you might not realize it tastes like Taiwanese mazesoba. An editor from the Chubu region commented, 'Taiwanese mazesoba is much more heavily flavored with MSG, and the umami hits you hard. It's also much spicier. This cup yakisoba has a strong chicken flavor, and it's quite different from Taiwanese mazesoba.'

The soup is like a slightly diluted version of chicken ramen broth, a comforting and soothing flavor.
