We came here because of outdoor seating to accommodate our dog but pleasantly surprised at the Really tasty brunch food. I normally like a bed of grits but the shakewell’s version is kind of like a polenta cake. Still good though. We also had the fried cod and chicken & churros. The churros were really good, thick and fluffy. Price was a bit high for brunch but other than that service was really good too.

Torn between 4 or 5 star because my personal experience of eating the fried chicken sandwich was disappointing, and the berry zero-proof drink was also a let down. But objectively maybe they were probably fine?

Had a great dinner here last night, highlights were the churros and paella. Paella was the best one I’ve ever had, it was incredible. It was loaded with chicken, chorizo, shrimp, olives, and aioli on top. The rice has a nice crunchy texture on the bottom that also added another great element of flavor. We enjoyed our meal with a bottle of Syrah. Great spot.

The churros are so, so good. You must get them. Crispy and fluffy and the sauce is not too sweet. Other things that were delicious were the potatoes, the fried chicken, and the yum yum bowl. The paella, which seemed to be their signature dish, was bland. I’d come back to try brunch.

The tapas were very good. The stand outs were the Watermelon and also the warm olives. Really good! I had the sea bass and it was pretty charred. Way overcooked. Taste like char. However, others had the point and Paella and they were very good! I would go back, just avoid the fish.

Got seated without a wait at 8pm on a Saturday. Excellent tables by the window to people watch both inside and on the street. Everything was delicious. Goat cheese plate was beautifully balanced. Patatas bravas were definitely a 2 serving plate. Drinks were strong but nuanced. Definitely coming back.

Shakewell is easily one of my favorite restaurants in the Bay Area. The restaurant has phenomenal vibes, insane cocktails and unbelievable fried chicken.

After several years of not being back, the food is as good as I remember. Came here for lunch on a Sunday and there was a good amount of seating that felt very covid safe outdoors and well spaced. The sea adds skin was amazing. The chicken was well spiced. The churros were crisp on the outside with a soft kind of eggy center. The sauces for everything was amazing
