I had visitors from New Zealand and Sydney and my guests requested to have vegetarian and one of them is Vegan. I did a search online and found Shakahari Too.<br/ <br/ Upon speaking with one of the staff, we found out owners are of Malaysian background and hence why the menu is a mix of Asian/Western fusion. <br/ <br/ LOCATION<br/ <br/ Conveniently located on Clarendon Street in South Melbourne between York and Coventry Street.<br/ <br/ As you walk in the restaurant is a little understated, but there is a homely feel. There is an upstairs area which is good for private functions. There is also another section at the back as well.<br/ <br/ SERVICE<br/ <br/ Extremely friendly and down to earl...
I haven't been to Shakahari yet, but it should be great if Shakahari Too is anything to go by. It's a really cute, quaint little spot with incredibly friendly staff and inviting decor. The food is almost all vegan, making ordering a breeze. I also appreciate that they emphasize healthy, whole food ingredients as opposed to all the Melbourne vegan spots that celebrate vegan junk food. It has its time and place, but I prefer the more wholesome options. I highly recommend the veg croquettes they taste like comfort food but are well balanced in terms of nutrients and ingredients. I also got the tofu and cucumber ribbon salad topped with an interesting combination of chestnut, goji berry and matc...
This was our first stop on our trip to Melbourne and it did not disappoint! We had the udon, which was delicious. As vegetarians, it is so nice to be able to select from the entire menu, and know that people are putting thought into their meatless options. Also, the people working there were so kind—they gave us lots of ideas of what to do in Melbourne and the surrounding areas. It was clear that they put a lot of time and thought into their food and service. Thank you!
Wholesome and delicious vegan food in a spacious and beautiful venue. Everything is made fresh-to-order, yet the service is quick and professional. My personal favourite is the satay. Lots of colourful vegetables served with seitan and tofu that's absolutely drenched in a flavour-packed sauce. YUM. I'm craving their food right now...<br/ <br/ The one and only complaint I have is that the serving sizes are a bit small compared to the price you pay.

Although I have been a vegan for 4 years, I was quite concerned about the obscureness of this menu. However, Shakahari Too did not disappoint!<br/ <br/ I was with a large group and therefore got to try the entire menu between us, which was a treat! I could not fault anything, and the staff were so friendly! <br/ <br/ Such a quaint, yet delicious restaurant for both meat-eaters and vegans to enjoy together.
Wow! The flavours are spectacular. LOVED the satay. By far the best. I can't stop thinking about it. Also make sure you get the Tofu Caramel for dessert.I was indifferent to the paella (not at all like what a paella should be) but will be back to try everything else. And to eat that satay again.
Love their vegan lasagna! It is a dish I get every time I go. It is my ‘go to’ dish.<br/ <br/ Their laksa is amazing too.<br/ <br/ A great place for those non meat eaters. Service friendly and great.<br/ <br/ Small menu but still a good selection of options.
By no means am I a vegan or vegetarian, but this restaurant did not make me miss meat! Food was super tasty and rich, but not too rich, so we didn’t leave hungry. I’d come back to try more or even head to their Carlton outlet to try what they have on offer!

Dear Shakahari Too, Today wasn’t the best day. It was the greatest day. My mouth was wet with the watering from thy food. I did not die of my nut allergy as you cared for me so deeply. I felt held. I will be returning. Yours, Harrison Storm
