Don’t Shaka nana over a smoothie - Edit
We’d enjoyed Shaka Salcedo and wanted to have breakfast there again but decided to try this other location for variety. We ordered different things this time: the big breakfast and the Super (granola) Bowl. We were told in an offhand way that the bowl might be available later. We also ordered the Coconut Cloud because it looked pretty on the menu, but the vibrant blue in the picture turned out to be a pale dull hue IRL. What’s more it was basically a banana smoothie. The big breakfast was decent, with a number of components, including a fried mock inhaler dish, that ranged from fine to as good. When we’d finished I checked to see if the bowl had become available and they told me it was. I was presented with a very generous bowl of fruit: banana, mango, grapes and some unfortunately unripe/tough papaya, on top of the granola. It was all topped with yoghurt and chia seeds in balanced and satisfying proportions. A reasonably good experience here but not what it could’ve been. #Veganuary

Cute little cafe - Edit
Burgers were good - little heavy on the mushrooms, but they were good and only medium sorta expensive.

Nori bowl rocks. Big Breakkie - Edit
Indoor and outdoor seating.
Read moreVaried menu.
The big breakkie includes lots of components and is nutritionally balanced. I love the mushrooms they put on it!! All the listed components are included so ignore the 'your choice of' in the description.
Nori bowl is my new fave.
Colleagues enjoyed the fish burger and lasagne.

Hits and Misses - Edit
Shaka offers a vibrant atmosphere and healthy vegan options. The standout was their loaded nachos, perfect for sharing. The vegan lasagna** was also satisfying with its rich and creamy sauce. However, the falafel lacked the usual spiced chickpea flavor, and the lattes were a bit underwhelming. Overall, a good spot for casual vegan dining, but some dishes might need a taste tweak.

Decent - Edit
The food is decent, if a little pricey. I cont the sloppy José, which I liked but thought it could have had more depth of flavour.

Grab Delivery! - Edit
Thank goodness for Grab Delivery! The restaurant at my hotel was getting old with their limited options so I was psyched to get a bunch of stuff delivered, including breakfast! Everything was yumm

Amazing burger and drinks - Edit
I had an amazing veggie burger with fries and tomato jam. I would buy jars of that tomato jam. The coffee was amazing, as were the smoothies. Overall loved it!! So cute inside and staff was really nice.

Pricey but solid - Edit
Shaka’s prices are basically what you would expect for a nice vegan place in the heart of BGC, but I found myself a bit disappointed. A lot of the food served at our table came a bit lukewarm. For the price we would have at least expected them to get the temperature right. It was still yummy though - can especially recommend the stroganoff and burgers.

Nice flavors, wholesome menu options - Edit
The birria tacos and fysh burger were really tasty. The burger bun was healthier than a regular one and there were lots of other healthy and colorful options on the menu too. They make a great oat latte and have quality loose leaf tea too.

The REAL Deal for sure. - Edit
The Pinkakes are even delicious plain because they are sweetened. The hot fruity topping is slightly tart so the combination is perfect. The acai smoothie bowl is excellent with sweet granola and mango slices and coconut. I ordered Grab. The beetroot-watermelon juice size is about 300ml.
Read morePros: Pancakes, Smoothie bowl, Sustainable packaging

Life saver! - Edit
Shaka was a real life-saver on my trip. Don’t need to think or overly scrutinize the menu as everything is vegan. We ate here several times and enjoyed everything. The big breakfast really hit the spot. Still a new vegan and this was my first time having a tofu scramble. A must stop for any plant eater.

Go here - Edit
Food was amazing, service also good, I got the big breakfast and iced latte. Nice environment as well. Location on Happy Cow is wrong but it’s around the corner so just use Google maps to find.

Healthy, cozy cafe and restaurant - Edit
They offer nice and filling breakfast, whether savory or sweet plus they are known for their smoothie bowls and parfaits. The place is very cozy, nice to hangout at. They serve a nice selection of international lunch and dinner meals too.
