Ambiente gradevole, cibo ottimo...il personale è un po' bizzarro tuttavia

Pros: Tutto veg, Elaborato e gustoso , Prezzo nella norma

Cons: Personale a tratti difficoltoso

Ottimo

Non è disponibile un menù alla carta, ma viene proposto un menu in 5 portate in base ai piatti del giorno. Tutto molto buono. I ravioli patate e menta indimenticabili!

Filosofia, ambiente e cibo

Splendido e calmo ambiente, ben arredato con un'atmosfera tranquilla e riservatami.
Il menù degustazione è diverso ogni stagione. Il personale è attento alle esigenze alimentari di ognuno. Dall'antipasto al dolce... Un viaggio sensoriale splendido e gustoso.

Pros: Vegan

Cibo ottimo!

Cibo davvero ottimo e di qualità, non metto 5 stelle perché ritrovarsi un volantino contro i “vaccini e gli sperimenti sui feti abortiti” a tavola onestamente non è molto educato. Per il resto meriterebbe 5 stelle!

Hands down the best restaurant in town

Ristorante che offre un menu 100% vegano. Materie prime eccellenti - che seguono la stagionalità - cucina attenta e di altissimo livello, servizio impeccabile.
Ogni boccone è un’esplosione di gusto e di sensazioni, le varie consistenze sono perfettamente bilanciate.
Lasciatevi trasportare dal viaggio sensoriale offerto dal menu degustazione e non ve ne pentirete!

Pros: 100% vegano, Cucina eccellente, Ottimo servizio

Stunning 5 Course Menu

Il miglior ristorante vegan a Brescia

Locale informale, molto accogliente. Il menù degustazione completamente vegano mi lascia soddisfatta al 100%. Cibi genuini, cucinati con cura e fantasia. Sapori sorprendenti e buonissimi. Consiglio vivamente bravissimi 👏👏👏

Pros: Solo menù vegano , Accogliente , Prezzo giusto

Cons: Niente , Forse un po' lunghi nel servizio

Simply a gem

I’ve been there almost a year ago and I really loved this place. Not only a restaurant, there’s a philosophy of life behind it, as you can easily understand reading the menu. The location is beautiful and the food is delicious. I opted for the tasting menu as suggested by the owner/waitress and I couldn’t be more satisfied. The dishes were beautifully presented and amazingly tasty, I also loved that they described all the ingredients of every single dish.
Be sure not to be in a hurry because it’s not the kind of place where you eat and go in less than a hour, they take their time and this is perfectly in line with my way of enjoying a meal, I think I spent there more than 2 hours... :)

Pros: Food (presentation, taste), Location, atmosphere, philosophy , Personnel

Tasting menu - 22€

It’s a really peculiar place, with many items from different religion and a very personal philosophy about nutrition.
They’ll insist that you choose the tasting menu (22€), so I wouldn’t recommend it for a quick dinner. The tasting takes a while (we were there for almost 2 hours), but it’s a wholesome experience. Several courses are served, and the owner explained each of them with passion.
I was there with my mum, who is not vegan, and she loved the food and the experience.
Totally recommended.

Pros: Food, High quality ingredients , Very passionate owner

Cons: It takes a bit of time

degustazione vegana di ottima qualita

Difficile trovare un ristorante vegano in cui il cibo e cosi curato anche a livello estetico. Gia il locale stesso con il suo arredamento e il piccolo giardino con una grande statua di Ganesha ci introducono in un mondo in cui si comprende che il cibo e sacro. Occorre prenotare e dedicare del tempo sia al pranzo che alla cena preparati al momento. A pranzo il ristorante e aperto solo il sabato.
Sublimi i primi, sia i ravioli che gli gnocchi di miglio ma la cosa migliore e scegliere la degustazione che e un tripudio di colori e sapori.

Pros: Ottimo rapporto qualita prezzo, Cibo fresco preparato al momento

Great experience-beware of the waiting times

I absolutely fell in love with this place and the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere it is imbued in. It’s not your typical vegan restaurant, here
it’s highly recommended to choose the standard 20€ menu which if i remember correctly is a 4/5 course menu. You will spend at least 2 hours in this place because of the long waiting times but if you are in good company you will enjoy those too, granted that you come inside with the adequate state of mind.

Pros: Exceptional dishes all around , 20€ menu including dessert , Great setting

Cons: Long waiting times

Prima volta

Ambiente molto accogliente, cibo di ottima qualità: molto buono e saporito.
Rapporto qualità prezzo eccellente
Personale accogliente disponibile e preparato.
Gnocchi di miglio 10 e lode, dolci 10 e lode. Unica pecca del menu la presenza eccessiva di solanacee ( forse a causa della stagione estiva?).

Pros: Ottime materie prime biologiche

Cons: Eccessivo il tempo di attesa tra le portate

High quality food, disappointing service

We went to Shakti because of the good reviews. At first, the waitress was really friendly and welcoming, but when we decided to only have one course instead of the menu offer (several courses for 22 euros), she completely changed. We waited 1 hour for our dish, while everyone around us who came after us got served first. The food she then brought was really nice, but we did not feel welcome any more. So I can only really recommend this place for people who want to try the menu offer.

Pros: All dishes are vegan and organic

Cons: if you dont opt for the menu offer, you're treated, like a second class customer

The best vegan restaurant !

I love this restaurant, I'm so lucky to live not far from it ! Try the testing menu for dinner. The food is 100% vegan and organic.

amazing gnocchi

the place is really nice and welcoming and the staff very friendly, the food is really good, prepared with great skill and served with care, the only flaw: the portions were far from abundant (nouvelle cousine's style)

Pros: gnocchi, nice place, very good food

Cons: small portions

You need to be a member of the association to eat

Be careful !!! It's not a restaurant but an association (it's free to become member, their religion is Ahimsa); And if the pretty decor is Indian, the food (very good) isn't at all Indian !!!

For 18€ you have one dish with 3 things (hummm gnocchi), one dessert and a hot drink (test yogi tea).

Lovely surprise

I am an Italian from Brescia living in London and last time I was back home I went searching for a vegan restaurant I knew opened a few years before and I really hoped it was there still . And it was !! The menu was divided into courses from starters to desserts or alternatively it offered a special selection of smaller portions which is the option my partner and I opted for .
Each dish was served with a little introduction by the waitress/owner of the restaurant.
The food was tasty and well presented , the atmosphere was relaxed and intimate , in the small cosy room there were a few other customers who all seemed to enjoy the food .
The above waitress was quite happy to stop and have a chat with us and eating at Shaktifood turnd out to be a relly nice experience .
Unfortunately I cannot remember what we paid for our dinner but I can say it was reasonable .
If anything should be said about the menu is that it could do with a few more basic ingredients rather than rely heavily on tofu or seitan but that is a really minor compain !
Will be back soon

Pros: price, taste, atmosphere

Cons: variety
