10 out of 10 guys absolutely amazing food friendly staff and the good memories from the land I come from would recommend 200 % Saturday menu to die for bunny chows on point lekka
This place is the bomb. Food is fantastic with very friendly staff especially the Saturday menu surprise. So come on all fb friends if you are in the Henderson area and looking for a bit to eat come on down to King Shakas. You won't be sorry.
I have been here a few times over the last couple of weeks for lunch and i thought it was sooo good and the decent priced and the service is super inviting and friendly!
I came here tonight for dinner and got a cheese burger and snack box and man was the burger super good!! and totally worth the price plus more!! loved it sooooo much!
I recommend this guys to anyone and everyone!
I had a bacon & egg toastie and a coffee, both were perfect! I also tried the fried chicken which was delicious. The place is nice & staff are really friendly, would highly recommend everyone to go here!
Amazing service!!! Love the flavours and generous portion sizes. We always get service with a smile �
Such a relaxed environment with delicious food ��
Highly recommend!!!
Best chicken pieces out in the west. So good even better then KFC. The quality is out of this world. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu. N the staff are friendly and helpful. Fantastic work guys keep it up. ���
King Shaka's is awesome. Their Samosa's are the best. I highly recommend the Beef and Onion and the Corn and Cheese, with their Shaka's spicy sauce.
Quality food, fried chicken is top notch, affordable, great customer service & clean! Definitely recommend �
OMG this place is AMAZING!!! Exactly what has been missing in Henderson! Food is so delicious and ridiculously cheap for the quality you receive. The staff are super friendly (they somehow even recognized me as my sister had been in the day before, talk about observant!) I would choose this place over any of the other restaurants every day of the week!!!
Had my first meal today and it was awesome! Staff was friendly and food was mean! Definitely would recommend to my friends and family :)
Very yummy food, great value for money, friendly & welcoming staff. Family business.
I'm glad to have discovered this little jem in Henderson but, I hope the secret gets out!
Holy! Amazing lamb curry bunny chow fellas. Haven't had one in 15 years and this blew my mind. I'll be back next week for Saturday lunch. Good job!
Bloooooody soooo good!! the mince patties are on point!! friendly service too:)
Best bang for ya buck and the service was fantastic , who ever the chef is you should be working in a 5 star joint
Crispy Chicken Burger, Classic Shaka Cheeseburger, Curry Puffs, Chicken Wings/Chunks/drumsticks, Fries, Milkshake ���� Freaking amazing! Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu! Awesome family too � New go-to out West!
We went here for a takeaway and were pleasantly surprised. The size of the burger pattie was enormous and tasted great. The spice on the crunchy chicken chunks was amazing. The price is reasonable, surely will be visiting this place constantly to satisfy my burger craving.

We definitely loved the service here, our favorite was definitely the burger tye paddies are like wow!! We also got the chicken and chips and loved the flavour ✊🥰 Also got a Mango thick shake 1st time in my life iv had one and it was dam delicious.. I waited a whole year to try their food and they did not disappoint 🤘👍 Cant wait to come back and have another amazing meal.. Thank you King Shakas
These Kings dont play! Awesome food, amazing service. King Shit!
Portion size is biggg, one of the tastiest burgers we've had at a decent price. The guys in the kitchen are very friendly and helpful. Will try the chicken next time!!
amazing burgers full of flavour and made with perfection in mind. The boneless fried chicken chunks and thick shakes are well worth getting as well
Our friend brought King Shaka's fried chicken platter over and it was one of the best fried chicken we've all ever tasted! Plate was cleared in no time 👌😁 will definitely come back for more! Well done to the guys down at King Shakas
King Shakas is a must try! We had the Crispy Chicken Burger, King Shakas Bacon Double Burger, Lit fries and lunch box with spicy wings (like KFC wicked wings but better and spicier). All the food was delicious and very generous. Great value for money and the service is outstanding!
Had the bacon cheese burger with fries and a chicken piece. I was really happy with my experience here. The burger, chicken and chips are all top notch. Customer service was amazing.
Amazing stuff! So glad to be in proximity to this mecca of chicken. The snack box is big enough for me, a small and inactive woman. Next time I'll be getting exclusively chicken. Think KFC but better quality and more spiced. Excellent dudes at the counter too.
One of the best burger joints around! The quality is perfect everytime and the taste is amazing. The chicken and chips are so tasty, I want to try everything at this place. The burgers have a unique taste, not the typical bland meat and a bit of sauce. The pricing is reasonable and the portions are good. If you are in the area, give this place a try, you will not be disappointed with the food or service.
This place is amazing, cant believe we had not tried it for many years but glad we decided to give it a go! Now we've been there multiple times and the service and food is always incredible. They make sure all their customers are happy. The food does take time to arrive but food is totally worth the wait and considering they're loved by many people. My partner and I love it so much!!
Done right. Patty has its own flavours going on. Burger wasn't greasy at all and held together well. My only disappointment was the patty was drier than I would have liked it otherwise all n all a different burger joint and worth trying out.
PS. Make sure your hungry when you go.
This is my go to place! Honestly I go there once every week love their Crispy chicken burger it's honestly one of the best burgers hands down 🤙🏾 the spicy wings are well spicy and I love my spicy food.
Keep it up boys and girl 💯
Have only heard good things about this place so had to try it out and they did not disappoint! The guy working there was super informative and helpful when he knew it was our first time there. Burgers are made to order & they were amazing! The chicken is breast meat which you would expect to be dry but not at all! Super juicy, super crunchy & packed with flavour! Awesome chill vibes to eat inside and the service was outstanding! Defs found a new spot out west 💯 Shot King Shakas 🤙🏽
Best fried chicken I’ve ever had! Burgers are incredible. Lit fries will make you never want plain fries again. The guys in the shop are friendly, service is excellent. West Auckland hidden gem!!!
Wow I'm not much of a review writer but for this one i have to say something. I had the double trouble burger with large fries. Let me first start if with the fries as i ate all of them before i got home. I have no idea what they spice them in but i was addicted from the first chip. Now let me get to the burger i judge burger places by their meat patties. And this meat pattie from shakas was packed full of flavour and juicy goodness. While i waited on my burger i tried the boneless chicken pieces sitting in the warmer 1 spicy 1 normal whoa! Crunchy! Great taste and moist. I loved the spicy ones the most.
This was my first time and i highly recommend i will be going back to try the chicken burgers. 2nd review to come
We’ve been here numerous times for a treat and they always deliver. It’s a bit of a wait because it’s always made fresh upon order but it’s worth it. If you live out west and need a burger fix this is the spot.
Great service and it’s nice to see more people noticing how great this place is for burgers. I showed the rents this place (even though my siblings told me not to because it’s dangerously good) and they went again the next day 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️.
The Crispy chicken burger is juicy and the chicken is massive compared to what you’d get at other burger outlets. Bacon double is a meat lovers favourite and the Jalapeño burger is a winner with my sister because it’s simple, yet fire.
Give small local businesses like this a chance rather than paying for the same price at maccas down Lincoln road.
Heard great things about this place so we tried it and omg So worth the price! The people there are hands down so amazing and the food is delicious 👏 would Love to go back!
Our go to is the chicken burger and the big beef burger, both sooo nice with heaps of taste and quite big. The chicken is so crispy! The people are so friendly and have even chucked in a few pieces of chicken for free. Best cheese fries we have had also. The only let down is the area. We usually get take away.
Legit the best burger place in town. The staff are crack up and always hold a good convo. They also have really good fried chicken and fries. I recommend it to anyone.
Henderson’s Hidden Gem 🔥 good everything. Chickens amazing and the staff are even better. Love what they doing for Henderson. Nothing but respect
Our weekly treat this place! Amazing customer service and the boys are like brothers now to my partner. Hands down BEST chicken and shakes 🤤 Burgers are delicious and presentation is always 👌
Got customers for life here 👍
Couldn't be bothered cooking so I thought I'd try this place out. I read some reviews about the portion size for the amount of $$ you pay. WE really enjoyed our meal tonight! Daughter had fish bites and chippies. I had the Double Trouble with Lit Cheese Fries (you gotta eat it while its hot) and Mrs had the Cheeseburger and large chips. The large chips are more like XXL chips (in comparison to Macca's/BK). Friendly service and meals nicely packaged. Both burgers had a sweet taste to it (maybe caramelised onions?) but we really enjoyed it! Only snapped a pic of the cheese fries and the Double Trouble burger. Paid about $33 for the lot which I thought was very well priced for the amount of food.
Epitome of excellence in customer service. Cozy and chilled environment, chicken, fries were delicious but the burgers were my favourite, they are incredible. Not your ordinary fast food burger joint, these patties are nicely seasoned and cooked, delicious flavouring and always served with a smile. Recommend a bigger place as you will have many more customers coming through. Try their milkshake its also a hit.
Burgers are great! The meat is juicy and the portions are right. The service is exceptional. The price is great for what it is worth which makes the experience better. Would go back again.
very good service and food! the snack box one of the best because it fills you up for the price you pay comparing to other places! also, they have the best milkshakes ever! the people are very friendly and good to have a conversation with. will definitely come back
Awesome food yum as. Definitely be back for more. Burgers are amazing and so huge too. This place definitely ticks all the boxes. Great prices also.
Heard about this place via fb ... so decided to go an try it out on the weekend of the MMT vs aussie game ... ordered 4 burger combo's ... the burgers were well seasoned & full of flavour along with the chips as well ... i would go back again definitely for sure ... 👌🤙🤘👍🖖 ...
KING SHAKA 🤤🤤 has taken burgers to a whole new level with all of those intense flavours. We literally came home with leftovers not wanting to eat all of it because we knew we would be there again to eat some more. Defs recommend 👍🏼❗️❗️❗️
Best god damn burgers in New Zealand period.... If you are in the area I suggest this food place heavily. If you like hot sauce then ask for "lit sauce" on your burger. Best hot sauce I've ever tasted.
Thanks Stanton and Clinton for a doing simple food great.A great spicy veggee burger at $8.50.Awesome Crispy Fried Chicken Wings at $1.50 each. Hearty Milkshakes and Well made chips.That awesome chilli sauce is a game changer.
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
I've been here a few times now, so I feel confident in saying that this place is awesome, and the two guys who run it are so cool and chill.
The chicken sandwich is insane, and the chicken bites themselves are also delicious. I tried the bacon cheeseburger, and it was solid... not game changing, but if you are in the mood for a burger it absolutely hits the spot, and you will most definitely not leave hungry.
We've also tried a bunch of the sides -- the curry puff was delish, the cheesy jalapeno fries are ace, and the samosas are ridiculously good!! Each time we've had them, they're perfectly cooked... perfectly warm through, so crispy on the outside, but not oily at all.
I'm really keen to try their Saturday South African specials... They've only been open a few months and I understand they're going to make a few changes to the menu in order to match demand, but whatever they end up doing, I'm stoked to have such a great local place to come back to.
I have no idea why their average rating isn't higher -- I can't think of a bad thing to say about this place.
If I’m craving chicken, this is my only option now. The chicken pieces are so good! Thanks to my friend Zeus for putting me onto this place. Its local and I never would’ve known it was there because it’s located in a shit spot but spread the word this place is 🔥🔥
Located close to Henderson Transport Hub, it is probably one of the easiest and cheaper places to pick up burgers, chicken and chip lunch boxes and thickshakes! I ordered the lamb burger and fries, my brother order 'Double Trouble' and a chocolate thickshake, and my mum ordered their largest burger and ordered a classic cheeseburger and a bacon cheeseburger as takeaways.
We were not disappointed! Food was a lot bigger than we thought, and the staff was so friendly. Definitely will be going back.
Love this place. The property itself isn't the best but the chicken pockets are amazing. A friend put me on it. Location is a little difficult in terms of parking but the food is delicious and the staff very cool n friendly :)
My partner has been multiple times and raved on about the burgers so I wanted to try it out and wow yum! the patties are home made and have so much flavour in them with the sauce was delish! the coffee is really good too nice and friendly atmosphere definitely will be back!
very friendly staff
double trouble is a must for cheese burger lovers
chicken burger is also very nice and massive!!
kumara fries very sweet!
Their chicken is UNMATCHED, Best Chicken in all of Auckland city. Hands down best place you'll ever eat. Burgers are Amazing, Well done. Careful once you try it, you'll never want to eat anything else but King Shakas.
By far the BEST food around! This is our go to burger place.
The chicken burger is top tier, never disappoints, actually nothing from there will ever disappoint.
Thanks for the consistently amazing food and lovely service, keep it up fam 👌
The food is always top tier. Their fried chicken is amazing with the spices they use. Just writing this review is making me keen for their bacon cheeseburger and snack box combo!
I ordered the Jalapeño burger for myself and a snack box for the hubby. The burger was 👌👌👌 I could tell it was done with love. Hands down the best patty I have had in a loooong time. The potato chips with the chilli powder I was very hesitant to share with my kids but even they loved it. And let's just say the chicken nearly didn't make it home to the hubby 😂 I definitely overate tonight!!! Glad to have had King Shakas for dinner. Thanks team!!! ❤️
Pros:
- Tasty food, I had the bacon cheeseburger and Kumara fries 👌
- Damn decent pricing.
- Friendly staff.
- Cool urban style burger joint .
Cons:
Only one... music. I personally don’t mind listening to track after track of hardstyle drum and bass 😂 but might not be everyone’s cup of tea.
That being said, the main reason you’re going is for burgers, chips and fried chicken and THAT they do well!
Edit: Came back again after 2 years and they’re still excellent! Added a photo of the burger I got too, look at that beauty!
So good! Really easy to order via Facebook and the team were super friendly! The food was fresh, treated with care, and absolutely massive (chicken burger and loaded fries).
What can I say except for exceptional. Service was immaculate, wait times well communicated, and food executed to a standard the whole team should be extremely proud of. All the best team, you deserve every success
If you live out west and love fried chicken, then get to King Shakas ASAP!! Their boneless chunks with spicy seasoning is on another level. And to top it off, they're friendly and quick to respond - Facebook message to order.
INSANE FOOD! Best burger i’ve had!!! If you love burgers this place is a must try! it puts any fast food place and many expensive burger places to SHAME! The customer service was also on par with the quality and taste of the food. The staff was super friendly and even asked me if I liked mustard as some people don’t.
One of the best eateries in west Auckland! The quality of the fried chicken and burgers was beyond what I expected. Amazing staff. All round 10/10!
Always a good vibe when you enter the store and the 2 lads at the counter are very friendly and positive. Chicken burger is ALWAYS on point and is always made fresh.
Best local chicken and burgers
Step over BK there's a new King in town, King Shakas scratches an itch that I never knew existed. These guys aren't just chefs, they're Fried Chicken Artists that craft the most delicious, boneless, fried chicken minus the greasy transparent bag like most other joints.
Staff are extremely friendly, place is very clean with seating available, easy as parking. 10/10!
One of the best beef burgers I've tried so far.
I ordered a jalapeno cheese burger and my partner went for a double trouble one, omg! We both loved it. Such flavorful and yummy burgers. Also, the size of the patty is good enough to fill your stomach with one burger.
On the sides, we ordered a snack box which had fries and fried chicken, we loved that too. It was probably the best fried chicken I've eaten so far in Auckland.
Definitely going back again...
GREAT BURGER! Great service from the staff also. Very lovely, gave an extra piece of chicken even. The food was amazing! Would rare 10 stars if I could
Always a 5 star service from these guys, food is impeccable! Best chicken in Auckland.
Please bring back the tacos i’ll pay extra 😂
Good price, good portions and good food. What I keep looking for in their burgers, is a bit of sweetness. Also, does not do phone orders which is extremely inconvenient and requires you to waste time.
The team at King Shakas are always such a pleasure to order from and it's an even bigger pleasure eating their amazing food! They share a passion for delivering quality service & product. I highly reccommend you give it a try. If possible, make it your local go to!
Kia Ora mah bros.
