ShadoBeni - Trinidadian Vegan Cuisine

As someone who was born and raised in Trinidad, I don’t give compliments like this lightly. Walking into ShadoBeni felt like walking back home, but with a healthy, plant-based twist that somehow didn’t sacrifice the authentic flavors I grew up with. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt welcomed. Rick, the owner, was incredibly friendly, genuine, and accommodating. It was an unexpected

Everything was amazing all around. I can't believe how flavourful the doubles were, and the oyster mushroom sandwich was so crispy! Whether you're vegan or not, this place is where it's at. Next time I'm coming back for a matcha latte also.

FYI they make several varieties of their own rolls for sandwiches, like avocado, coconut, or sundried tomato. I was grateful to stumble upon this small but mighty neighborhood vegan spot after visiting the Mattress Factory. The fried oyster mushroom sandwich was worth the wait. There were a handful of tables inside and a few picnic tables outside, in March ‘26, and, thankfully, free drinking-water

A gem of a place!! wonderful staff, delicious food that hits every taste bud. 100% vegan.

So excited to see vegan restaurants. This place was delicious. Fresh ingredients and fast service. The Sorrel was refreshing. Roti had the most amazing depth of flavor, incredible textures and spices. The Oyster Mushroom wingz were delicate and crunchy. Not smothered in oil either. A gem of a place and would 100% go back again.
