Shaka Sushi and Cocktail Bar

"10/10 recommend this restaurant! We had Steven as a server; he exceeded all expectations, and then some! I have celiac disease which means I cannot have anything with gluten and have to be super careful with cross contamination. Steven made sure my sushi roll was prepared correctly and took the allergy seriously, which I LOVE! Usually when I go to dinner with family, I don’t order anything due to fear of cross contamination but I’m here to report that I did not have any reactions and I’m so so happy it was taken seriously! Life changing for someone who LOVES to eat out, but usually can’t. Although I live an hour away from Shaka, this will be my go-to restaurant where I can eat at. The rest of my family loved their food as well. They said the baked avocado was TO DIE FOR (Steven’s recommendation) and the sushi was just the best. They have an entire gluten-free menu (attached) and some vegan options as well. Thank you James (owner), Steven, and the rest of Shaka for making this a great experience! :) :)"

"So delicious! The inlet roll was EVERYTHING. My drinks were spectacular. We actually got it for two nights of our stay because we were so in love. Try all the sauces! Our waiter was spectacular, I didn't catch his name but he was so great."

"Great menu with many options we wanted to try- enjoyed amazing miso soup, spicy tuna roll, the Wingnut (seafood udon noodles) and Bodhi (pork belly ramen). Delicious! Attentive and friendly service. We look forward to coming back soon."

"Excellent sushi spot with really fresh and flavorful food. We didn’t have to wait too long for seating. Patio seating is also available. Restaurant was busy but service staff was accommodating. Alex was our server. We tried the shrimp fried rice, salmon poké bowl, and a few assorted rolls. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the Panama City beach area."

"Best sushi in town and great service! Everything we ate was so fresh and delicious. Mango mojito was Yumm! We ate outside as it was a beautiful night but inside was well done as well. There are outdoor heaters if needed. Lots of parking unlike Rosemary beach and Seaside. Give it a try. You will not be disappointed."
