The food was great and the place is beautiful but it needs more attention to the type of service offered. the waiter forgot part of our order it just came so after we were done dinner. We missed that dish We also got a wrong order. I ordered pea tea latte and I got turmeric tea instead and with cow milk. The reason I ordered the pea tea mil was bc I didn’t want dairy and it wasn’t explained to me both have cow milk. The music is also extremely loud hard to talk. We had to ask to bring the volume down. They also play old rock music the whole time not according to the type of restaurant. I won’t come back

Had an excellent time at Shook Kitchen. The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly, attentive, our server had great recommendations. Food and drinks were delicious! We sat outside and despite a busy location just south of king, it was quiet and enjoyable. Next time would love to try inside as the open style kitchen was really interesting. Would definitely go back!

I don't usually go to vegetarian restaurants, however I was there with a friend that is a vegan. I found the food fresh and overal very good. The service was outstanding. What a great spot to eat. I would recommend Shook Kitchen to anyone looking for a delicious meal at a great value. It has certainly been a long time since I have had dining experience like this, that was as smooth and enjoyable as the one I had at Shook Kitchen. See you soon Steve
