Shaka Food

4.7(178 reviews)

About

In Costa Rica, Shaka Food sits just off Calle San Javier in Tamarindo, beside the church on the country's Guanacaste coast. The venue operates as a food spot, and its Instagram page at shakafood.rest is the place to look for what is cooking. Diners come here knowing the name, and the place has built a following among locals and travellers passing through Tamarindo.

Shaka Food is known for its food, served in a relaxed setting in Tamarindo, one of the better-known beach towns on the Guanacaste coast. With a 4.7 out of 5 average drawn from 178 reviews, it holds a strong standing among the many places to eat in the area. First-time visitors should expect a casual meal rather than a formal dining room, and the crowd tends to be a mix of residents and visitors. San José, the capital, lies further inland, while Tamarindo itself is the immediate draw.

The venue's opening hours are not part of this listing, so plan around a meal rather than a fixed slot. Its Instagram account, shakafood.rest, is the channel tied to the business. The address, Calle San Javier 50309, places it in the Guanacaste Province, in the town of Tamarindo.

Costa Rica stretches between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, with volcanic ranges running down its centre, and altitude shapes the weather, so the Central Valley and mountain towns are cooler than the coasts. Turtles nest on Caribbean beaches, with olive ridleys arriving at Ostional in mass nestings. A few local words go a long way with vendors and waiters.
