We are huge fans of Nepalese and Indian cuisine but our experience at Yak and Yeti was at best a mixed bag. The appetizers were very good; we had the Lhasa Momas and Samosas. I’ve eaten naan while living in that part of the world and it is superb. This naan was below average, and a somewhat stingy portion. The chutney was very good. The entrees were at fair to poor. We had the pork and lentils combo meal as well as the spicy goat curry. The pork was very fatty and chewy and lacked flavor (very odd for this kind of cuisine). The lentils were basically a soup; it was not bad, but nothing special. The menu warns you that the goat curry will have some bones in it, but wow was that an understatement. It had more bones than meat. Many of the bones were small needle-like slivers and easily swallowed. I filled a side dish with bones; the remaining little bit of meat was very tough, fatty, with gristle and other inedible rubbery bits. The spicy curry flavor was initially good but you quickly lose your appetite working to find a decent bite without swallowing bone fragments. To end on a more positive note, the prices were not as high as you’ll find in many Anchorage restaurants. Service started out good, but went downhill quickly when they got just a little busier. I would...
Read moreI came here for dinner and there was no one else in the restaurant, but everyone else is missing out by not coming here! I am obsessed with momos, and the Yak and Yeti definitely did not disappoint! I got the entree of momos, garlic naan and some lamb appetizer to split with my dad (sorry I have early onset dementia and can’t remember the name!) and it was the perfect portion size because we both finished everything and were the perfect level of fullness. I’ve had momos before, but this restaurant has a signature sauce that they serve it with that makes them to die for! I could probably drink the sauce by itself! The naan was addicting, and not too much of a strong garlic taste. Everything was warm and delicious, served with tamarind and (cucumber?) chutney. I’m not sure but one of the chutneys was green and it was absolutely delicious. I even used the cabbage garnish as a vessel to eat the sauce, it’s that good. I would definitely recommend coming here. I almost forgot! I got samosas too and they were huge!!! But very good...
Read moreNice place, cozy and clean. The food was good, although a little bland. The pickle condiment was amazing!
We ordered garlic naan ( didn't taste like garlic) Himalayan chicken, Samosas, Aloo ghobi, daal bhat, chicken vindaloo.
Figured that was more than enough for two kids below 8, and two below 3 ( they don't eat much ) plus two adults. And it was, just barely! But the bill 😱 $91
For fairly bland food and very small portions that's pretty a wild check. I've paid less than that at a five star Indian place with twice the serving size. It was worth the try, but Indian food...
