Loved this place and the food was so good!! I'm lucky it's located in Alameda, not too far away. Spam musubies were on point, as well as that ube waffle and pog mimosa! I will definitely be trying everything on the menu. Atmosphere was great and warped me back to my time in the islands.

Great food. Super slow (and they estimate way earlier than they actually have it for).

They charge $1 more for iced lattes than regular lattes. Does ice really cost $1?
The coffee I ordered was too sweet.

Sat inside, simple decor. No music no tv, no ambient sound.. just cooks and staff chatting/flirting. Wasn't terrible, just weird.

Food was good, but expensive for actual quality of ingredients.

Waffles themselves are boring, but toppings make it. Cobb salad is a very weirdly composed dish, but still good.

Moco locos are obviously a well executed dish.

Little House was great but also kinda weird, and keeping Alameda weird is wonderful.

The food here is legit. Tastes like you would find in Hawaii, and good.
Staff is very engaging and they have a good selection of items.

The restaurant itself is very small. A couple of tables indoors, outdoor seating when it's available and a modest parking lot. Just be aware it might be better too to get takeout and try to sit if it's crowded.

Cute little “shack” spot in the corner. They only have 13 tables. 5 inside and 7 outside in their patio. Make sure to find a table first then order inside. Entrance is on the sidewalk side. I accidentally almost entered through the back where the parking lot is lol. We shared the big kahuna loco moco which is perfect for two. I wanted to try alittle bit of each meat options they had and knew I wouldn’t be able to finish it all. The hamburger patty and kalua pork was really tasty and good. I think the sausages were kinda overcooked though. My ube matcha latte looked nothing like the picture but was still very good. The ube Malasada was just ok. It could’ve used more filling. Overall it was pretty good and I’d most likely come back to try other stuff!

Shaka Shack is an absolute gem for breakfast. I came here this morning and everything was amazing from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care; you can tell they don’t cut corners here. Portions were generous, ingredients tasted high-quality, and every bite hit the mark.

The vibe is laid-back and welcoming, exactly what you want for a great breakfast spot, and the service was friendly and efficient without feeling rushed. This is the kind of place that instantly puts you in a good mood and makes you want to come back again (and again).

If you’re in Alameda and looking for a top-tier breakfast, Shaka Shack is a must-try. Highly recommend.
