I think this was a Korean restaurant for a little while, but the ownership has changed and the menu has completely changed as well. We came in on a Saturday evening, place was so packed. We were seated in the back of the restaurant, tables were cute and chairs were comfy. Menu had lots of Chinese BBQ skewers which is extremely popular in this area these days, some Asian fusion style items too. Most items were meats though. They serve beer but it's all canned, they just pour canned beers into containers like mason jars and pitchers. I had a few cans of Sapporo which were not cold enough for me. We had some seafood and meat skewers, grilled scallops with glass noodles, spicy crawfish, marinated pork feet and steamed pork dumplings. The food was surprisingly delicious that I was actually pretty impressed with the flavors. Portions and prices were fair too. One issue was that it was unbelievably slow for a while and so many orders were backed up for such a long time. So many dining people weren't happy with that and canceled their orders. After that the food came out pretty fast and the service got a lot better too. This restaurant opens till 2am everyday, it's good that we have a place for late night food and beer in this area!

Not sure why the page I'm looking at for Shakalaka says CLOSED. We ate here not too many days ago. But it looks like the menu offering changed? Lots of meats on a stick. Lamb, lamb rib, chicken, pork belly, even bacon wrapped enoki. Quite tasty. Well, it might be too salty and too seasoned for some people. Part of the slogan on the wall mentions the word pub. So maybe drinking will help cut the saltiness. But the blend they used to season each skewer is quite unique. Not just savory, but spice, pepper, acrid, aromatic. I really like it. Mostly the chicken and the lamb. So-so dishes we had included oysters and scallops. Not satisfying. I think the scallops could use more sear. Served in a shell, not a skewer. The fried calamari is lighter seasoned fare. But crisp, and tasty. Jellyfish was super salty!!! Was expecting it to be mellow, a bit sour, like a Taiwanese dish. Ambiance is nice. Friendly casual.
