Shakti's - Everything was so good! - Italian Near Me - Wenatchee, Washington

Delicious food, amazing atmosphere, and one of the only places open early in the week for a nice dinner. Shakti's is great!

We had dinner at Shakti's this evening after booking through OpenTable, unaware that only a limited Valentine's menu would be offered. The food was disappointing, with very poor choices and small portion sizes. Most concerning was the price -- the meal was extremely overpriced for what was served, and we were genuinely shocked by the bill, which came to $400 including a couple of drinks. We have never paid so much for such a disappointing dining experience, even at high-end restaurants. read more

My wife made reservations for 2/13. We were excited, since we'd been once before, and it was great. Thought we'd miss the Valentines crowd by going out a day early. Our mistake was not seeing that Friday was also part of their 'Valentines', with a limited menu...and a fixed price. What we really should have noticed were the written warnings... in large font, all over their home page, which now, in hindsight, are obviously in response to prior guest relations...No cancelations, no changes, no regular menus, no discounts, and no refunds! Instead of warm friendly inviting...cold, arrogant, and uppity. In their defense, they tried to warn us! As far as the dining experience, food, and wait staff, everything was great. The part we feel cheated on was the $400 for a $200 dinner.... $130 per person for a $50-$60 entrée, $4 bread, $9 Caesar, and a $20 desert....Yes, overpriced, and that's based off their own listed prices.. their bread is $8, their large Caesar is $18 per their own menu. Top that off with a credit card charge to add insult to injury. Really? The $130 wasn't enough to cover that with the $40 overcharge? Not to forget the percentage for the tip... lesson learned! read more

First time at Shaktis! Didn't know that there was a twilight menu all day on Tuesday... is this Edward versus Jacob situation?! Not quite cause we don't have to choose!!... 3 courses for 36 dollars?! Sign me up! I got the bolognese for my entree it was A DREAM. Our server Tessa was amazing, and we even got a class I. How to "properly" serve a wine bottle! How fab ! Excited for girl dinners on Thursdays read more

The service was so great! absolutely beautiful setting with a nice atmosphere. Our server was amazing, she was so attentive and sweet! The food was so wonderful, we will definitely be returning! read more

Sat in the garden area and had a wonderful early dinner! Such a wonderful gem, great place for a girls night.

Wonderful food, service and atmosphere! 100% this recommend!! Lovely setting and peaceful

We had a great 1st time experience at Shakti's! It was my birthday weekend and my boyfriend planned a nice dinner at this restaurant. Beautiful patio atmosphere with water misters so you want get to hot!! Great service and the food was phenomenal!! We started with a couple appies crab cakes and spicy shrimp. Moved onto the delicious main entree Bolognese Al Forno and Triple Formaggio. I was surprised with cream Brulé with candles card and diamond bracelet. read more

Way overpriced and our dinners were cold. We had to send it back to the kitchen for a warmup. Our waitress was very understanding and embarrassed by the unfortunate requests we had to make. Probably will not revisit. read more

The ambiance is beautiful, the service was great and the drinks were well made. However, the food isn't worth going back for which is a real bummer given they're doing everything else so well. The "bruschetta" is sautéed tomatoes and Parmesan over baguette which quickly becomes very soggy. A traditional bruschetta of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and basil with good quality olive oil and toasted baguette would have been sublime. We also had the calamari which tasted fishy and had so much sauce it seemed to be more of a soup. If they improve their food they will really have something special. Since food is the backbone of a restaurant it's hard to want to go back until it has improved. read more

Not sure how this is listed as Mediterranean.., it's definitely Italian! Had a Fabulous visit for our anniversary dinner. Great Service, Outstanding food, On Point Cocktails, & Friendly Staff. We Loved the Ambiance & Can't wait to return our next visit in the area! read more

Shakti's - Full pour of Merlot. - Italian Near Me - Wenatchee, Washington

First of all , the food was good, at least , the Rigatoni Bolognese, was. I ordered the appetizer (s), mushrooms/ the veggie dish, mashed potatoes w/ green beans. My husband ordered the rigatoni dish, as per the menu of a three course dinner. Long story short. We ordered our drinks , shortly after, ordered our dinner. It took about an hour to get the salad, then about another 45 to 60 minutes to get our dinner. The mushroom dish was a consistency of mushroom soup, the veggie dish was as mentioned above. The waitress was so busy being a bartender , that when asked where our dinner was, she said she'd check on it. Now , I do not mind having a nice dinner and especially after a long travel day, but almost two hours. That's a bit much. I don't think that appetizers and a baked pasta dish takes that long to cook. In my opinion. All in all ,we left with full bellies. read more

Food was barely edible. Pasta was sweet - strange - they used brown sugar. Why one would ask... Another pasta dish at the table was served dry after being placed in the oven. When mentioned to the server they just added sauce to the same dish of dry pasta. Spritz was decent. Server was very green. Outdoor seating was nice. read more

Dinner for four. Could have been a lot better. Server seemed completely lost as to how to manage the service. Cocktails were ok but took a very long time to arrive. Bruschetta appetizer was also fine. The entrees were all nearly inedible. My pasta dish was so sweet that it forced me to inquire as to the ingredients... brown sugar. To of our guests did not eat but a bite of their food. This level of rejection is rare and it reflects very poor quality food. We left hungry and a bit sad. read more

I have watched this restaurant vary over the years and in the past we were not so happy. However, like all businesses, it is only fair to revisit down the road and always give them another try. We have done this twice in the past month to see if it was a fluke. Both times we chose to sit outside, of course the weather wasn't as perfect as the first time outside on the back garden area. They did have heaters going for us, which was very helpful. It is beautiful in the garden area, as is the inside seating. Quite romantic actually. The four of us ordered mixed drinks and wine. The house red was decent and the drinks were complaint-free. All our meals came with a small salad with no option for a different dressing, but it was a vinaigrette with gorgonzola crumbles. Sadly, there wasn't any bread served. The new Steelhead dish was very good according to my wife, the pasta dishes were flavorful. My steak was cooked correctly, had a good green peppercorn sauce and the mashed potatoes and asparagus were good, too. Lastly, were all ordered the Crème brûlée. It was decent. The restaurant was not busy, but it did take a while to get the food, which was hot and fresh. I guess quality takes time and it was appreciated. Don't expect to dine and dash as you will have plenty of time to enjoy conversations with your party. I was surprised to see how dead it was on a Friday night. However, I for one can recommend giving this business another try if you have had a bad experience in the past. We sure have enjoyed coming back and hope the quality level remains. read more

Amazing food and drinks! Great intimate setting, highly recommend. The service was spectacular drinks and food arrived so fast.

Amazingly cozy and intimate atmosphere, great service and large portions. The salmon entree was unfortunatley extremely disappointing. No flavor or seasoning. read more

First time there ever Saturday night. Was with a friend from out of town and had a reservation for 6pm outside. We were there from 6pm-7pm. We got water, lemon drops and bread (which were good). And then we didn't see our waitress again. I ended up agreeing with my friend that we were going to leave since no food and no waitress. I went to the hostess stand and in the interim they delivered food to our table. The waitress came up to me and said the food was delivered and "my mom" wanted to eat (was my friend but that part didn't bother me). I went back out to the table and my friend told me *she didn't say that* and was waiting for me to get the check. So I can't really comment on the food at Shakti's but the service was less than stellar (if anybody from Shakti's is reading this, lying to a customer is not a good thing). The owner replied in another review group that my friend had taken bites of her meal because she watched on cctv - she hadn't. She was picking through the noodles looking for the shrimp that was supposed to be in the dish and only found one shrimp in the whole plate. The delay might have been ok if we had been updated but as soon as I was lied to I was done and won't be back. Based on my experience with the other review group I fully expect her to reply to this one with more passive aggressive comments apologizing while still blaming us. Just know - that's really not a good look. read more

The dinner experience was truly outstanding. I will for sure be dining here again next time I'm in town .

We wanted to love this place, as several friends had recommended it. Made reservations; upon arriving, they did not have our reservation but seated us anyway since it was slow. Dirty martini tasted watered down. Artichoke appetizer was good but overpriced, as were the entrees (spicy rigatoni and crab croquettes). Charged us $10 to substitute a side salad for a side Ceasar. Didn't have Syrah but the cabernet was ok. Service was decent. $160 before tip. Meh. Not "fine dining". Save yourself the disappointment and go to Olive Garden instead. read more

My friend and I had dinner in the lounge. The food was spectacular and the service was fabulous! I had the Twilight dinner with the steak. It was cooked perfectly. The house red wine was very good. read more

Food was delicious, pastas were outstanding, excellent drinks and service by our waitress AJ. My wife and I enjoyed the atmosphere on our date and definitely will be coming back! read more

As a part of a large group - we loved our experience at Shakti's. Dining outside on the garden patio was lovely - great ambiance, a nice breeze and cooling spray kept us feeling comfortable. We had great cocktails, some from the happy hour menu. Our food was plentiful and delicious. I had the bolognese pasta. All of the menu selections that our group ordered looked well prepared and delicious. Our server was attentive, friendly and helpful. My first visit to the restaurant but people in our group visit the restaurant frequently. I look forward to returning. Shatki's is now on my list of favorite restaurants in Wenatchee. read more

I wasn't going to leave a review at all but after what transpired feel like people should be warned. My friends and I went to Shaktis for a girls night out a while back. My friend received raw chicken which made her really sick. Me and my other friend had ordered medium steaks which were rare. Customer service was not great either. I assumed it was an off night so instead of leaving a review, I emailed the owner to let her know because I thought for sure she would want to know this had happened. She replied right away blaming the waiter & the fact that the chicken was frozen & that must be why it came out raw. She offered to send something as an apology. I waited and waited and nothing came. I then kept reading negative reviews in a Facebook review group so I left a quick comment about my negative experience. The owner replied nicely again and said she wanted to send a peace offering.. then she blocked me. Before blocking me I witnessed her and her waitress calling several customers out. Bottom line this is NOT a restaurant I want to give my business to. It's not about the food as much as it is making customers feel important and heard. Not getting defensive and calling people out on a public platform. read more

Pricey. Delicious. Zen environment. Great service. Tried this place tonight after Red Robin kitchen caught on fire. Was a bit worried about the prices as soon as we walked in. However, after 5 people ate fancy including a few glasses of wine, a tab of less than $300 is very digestible. We sat outside what felt like a Japanese tea garden. So green. So full of peace. The service was great. Entrees came with a delicious salad. Mediterranean touch with olives and blue cheese. The entrees came with delicious mashed potatoes and asparagus. Every entree had a little piece or two of red bell pepper as a garnish. The steak was amazing. I would eat another one in the same setting. Menu is small and unique. Prices vary from $33-65. But it is all worth it. Give it a try you will not be disappointed. Parking is right behind the restaurant. Don't be fooled by the spacious parking lot next to it as it is for the dentist office 24/7. read more

It's been nearly 10 years since I first was introduced to Shakti's by a local friend in the hospitality industry. I was there for an informal business dinner and have returned at least a dozen times since both for casual happy hour experiences on the patio, and for numerous special celebrations. There are many facets of what makes a restaurant truly great (at least in my mind): Service, ambiance, and the food itself. Shakti hits on every level every time. From accommodating my freaky dietary limits, to setting up last-minute reservations (in a perfect cozy corner), I feel they go out of their way for me. But then I look around at others, and see that they're all feeling just like me. THAT is what marks the difference between a good restaurant and a great one. From my first visit, I was impressed with their Rigatoni 218 as it's got just the right balance of rich creaminess and sweet spiciness. I've returned to it again and again because it's so consistently delicious, but I thankfully get plenty of bites from my partner's plate too. From beef tips to creamy, rich scallops, there's something here for everyone. read more

This place was a nice place to go for a romantic dinner. I really do love their patio. Evening or daytime. We ordered pasta. I don't remember what all was in it but it was quite tasty. Their menu was a bit limited. The plates and silver was not as new or nice as I would think. It looked quite worn. The back patio like I said is gorgeous. The food was good but nothing special. Our Waitress was definitely new. Sweet but shy. The wine was good and so was the desert. Overall pretty nice place but quite a bit overpriced for the quality I would say. read more

This part of my email to the Owner, besides the (3) phone calls that were never returned, "To whom reads this, I writing to inform you of the catastrophe we had Thursday evening 11/4: we had a reservation for (6) people @ 5:00 We received our water and ordered our drinks about 5:05, and ordered our appetizers at that time also. The waitress was running all over the place as she did not have enough support (she was great and kept apologizing for the delays. It took 50 min. to receive our drinks It was just over 60 min. to receive our appetizers and had to send my Wife's clams back as they were Cold! not even luke--warm. Before finishing our appetizers, we ordered a second round of cocktails. After 1 hour and 20 min. we canceled the drinks and were just about to pay for the appetizers and cocktails received but as we were getting up to leave our diner showed up. 1:23 minutes from reservation time until our food arrived .... unacceptable." Sad way to run a business, We'll never go back. Joe D. Wenatchee, Wa. read more

I am not one to leave a bad review, I really hate being negative but our experience last night warrants a review for others to see. I called ahead and left a voicemail to make a reservation and the gal was extremely nice and got back to me quickly. When I asked if there were options for dairy free, she assured me they had TONS of options and substitutions- she said just ask your server and they will be able to accommodate.My husband is lactose intolerant and gets extremely sick if he has dairy. I was thrilled they had options as it was our 3rd wedding anniversary and I wanted to go somewhere nice to celebrate. Upon arrival everything seemed great, it smelled great and the atmosphere seemed really nice. Unfortunately we were seated at a horrible table- sitting directly in front of the chef in the kitchen facing the door where people were entering and exiting. We let it go, because it didn't matter. When the waitress came over and greeted us we had already looked over the menu and were ready for an appetizer. My husband opted for the "hot" calamari. When it arrived to our table it looked awful. But what's worse it that it tasted absolutely vile. Imagine eating a raw baby squid drenched in warm cocktail sauce.. and for 27$?? It wasn't spicy, it wasn't cooked and it smelled disgusting. We didn't eat it. But yet we decided to order dinner to give them the benefit of the doubt and try it out. When asking the server for dairy free suggestions she said and I quote "ummm we don't have hardly any- I suppose you could do steak". ARE YOU JOKING? We should have paid for the freaking nasty calamari and left. But yet we didn't. He thought steak sounded good and we were hungry, when he asked what sides it comes with she said starter salad, mashed potato's and green beans. My husband asked if he could do no cheese on the salad and mashed potato's but dairy free. She said no " we make the batch of potato's in the morning for the day". First off, that's disgusting, for being so high class you'd think they would make things fresh for you. Especially when they don't open till 4, so they're just sitting there all day till dinner? Yuck. He said ok so I guess no mashed potato's for me, and she asked how he wanted his steak, he said medium. I ordered the Kobe burger. And she took our orders over to start. She came back a minute later to tell us that unfortunately the glaze for the steak has cream in it. YOURE JOKING. But nope, not joking. She then says "for an additional 5 dollars the chef will make you a dairy free glaze". So we say ok..... (I know you're getting mad for us now, right?) Anyway we wait a couple minutes and our salads come out. Hardly any dressing on then. Lettuce tastes like it wasn't washed and tasted of dirt. So we don't eat those. Then 15 minutes later our food arrives. I'm not kidding when I say there was a small steak with 3 green beans on it... and let me tell you the steak was raw in the middle, like EXTREMELY RARE (moo) and the green beans were leather and were not cooked all the way at all. My burger was fine, not great, nothing special. But we waited for 10 minutes for our server to come back so he could tell her the steak wasn't right. By that time he just said screw it, and started eating the outside of the steak that was cooked. When she finally came back and asked how things were, my husband was so mad he didn't want to make eye contact. So I politely said, well actually no. His steak is extremely rare. Her response was "well I told him medium". I can throw it in the oven if you'd like? Yeah what we want is for you to throw his cold raw steak in the oven. What's better than a raw steak, oh yeah- a dry steak!! So we say no can we have the check please. She says well it's your anniversary so dessert comes free. She gives us 2 options- both are ice cream. So I pick the first one because I like ice cream. It arrived and it's burned pecans with frangelico over vanilla ice cream. Disgusting. Took one bite and said nope. Handed her our card. Paid full price for our meal and $115 later here I am writing this post read more

Really wonder why this place is considered to have Mediterranean food. Like any other place in Washington, this place is not cheap just because it is three hours away from Seattle! Food was okay, but nothing to die for. I felt like we only paid for food service and ambience. We came to this place based on recommendation from hotel receptionist. Not coming back here for sure and ask food lovers not to go out of their way to come here. read more
