Shiva Shakti

An Indian dining legacy, redesigned for the digital age.
For over two decades, Shiva Shakti has defined Indian cuisine in Cambodia. From royalty to celebrities, the restaurant welcomed generations of diners—but hadn’t yet welcomed the digital era. We helped them make the leap.

The Ask

Shiva Shakti had the reputation, the story, and the loyal customer base. What they didn’t have was a digital experience that reflected any of it.

They came to us with a clear goal:
To build a user-friendly website, develop a memorable online presence, and ensure that their legacy felt as relevant today as it did twenty years ago.

They weren’t starting over. They were starting from somewhere important

The Challenge

Despite being a pioneer in Phnom Penh’s food scene, Shiva Shakti hadn’t capitalized on digital momentum. Their existing assets were either outdated or nonexistent, and their voice—once powerful through word-of-mouth—was missing online.

It wasn’t just a design problem. It was a matter of translating legacy into experience.

The Approach

Rebranding with elegance and culture at the core
We retained Shiva Shakti’s traditional cues while introducing modern elegance through typography, palette, and iconography. The packaging system was redesigned to feel premium—honoring Indian heritage with a fresh lens.
A website designed for action and ambiance
We created a visually engaging, fast-loading website that felt like the restaurant itself: warm, inviting, full of detail. From a one-click “Book A Table” flow to a gallery showcasing its regal legacy, every scroll was purposeful. We also integrated QR menus and sanitation protocols to build post-pandemic trust.
Social media that told a modern story
On Instagram and Facebook, we crafted a visual narrative that blended culture, cuisine, and nostalgia. Post themes included signature dishes, customer moments, cultural festivals, and legacy throwbacks—supported by original captions that were local, lovable, and always on brand.
SEO that delivered organic growth
We applied a full-stack SEO strategy—from meta and header optimizations to content syndication and backlinking. We built structure, clarity, and intent into the site’s core to boost visibility without relying on paid channels.
The Outcome
The Love
“For the first time, our restaurant feels like it lives in two worlds—physical and digital. And in both, it feels like us.”
