"A 2022 addition to the neighborhood, the Shaku Bar is a labor of love from chef Matt Odama and former Trader Joe’s store managers Mark Tucker and Trent Brown. Taking over a former Wasabi Sushi location, the trio transformed the space into an inviting neighborhood bar with a food menu pulling inspiration from the Pacific Rim — think barbacoa tacos, noodle salads, and pork katsu sandwiches — and a lively cocktail menu. Shaku hosts musical acts on the patio, food pop-ups, fundraisers for causes including Planned Parenthood, and weekly trivia nights on Tuesdays." - Nathan Williams
