t's been a long time since I last visited Himalayan Wild Yak, and I realized I never left a review…read more We went for dinner this past Friday and headed straight to the bar. The bar area is big and spacious, and usually sitting at the bar means better, more attentive service. The place was mildly busy, so I expected things to run smoothly -- but that wasn't the case. Right from the start, the bartender wasn't very attentive. We had to ask multiple times just to place our order. For appetizers, we tried the Goat Buttan and the Wild Boar -- we wanted to explore some of the unique delicacies on the menu. Both dishes were interesting, and the Goat Buttan and Wild Boar were actually pretty solid. Unfortunately, the service continued to be an issue. We had to flag the bartender again just to order our entrées and even for simple water refills. We ordered the Mutton Taas and the Yak Chili. The Yak Chili was very good, but the Mutton Taas was extremely dry -- like eating cardboard -- and lacked flavor. Throughout the night, our bartender was constantly absent. More than once, we had to ask another bartender to get his attention so we could get basic service. After finishing our meal, we ordered a dessert, the Gulab Jamun. The presentation looked nothing like the picture -- more like a sloppy drop of pudding -- and the taste was just as disappointing. And again, we had to flag down another bartender because ours was nowhere to be found. Service overall was lackluster, and the tip options started at 20% with no 18% choice. For the level of service we received, 15% would have been more appropriate. I won't be returning anytime soon unless I'm specifically craving their unique delicacies -- which is once in a blue moon.

All the food was fantastic and came out in a timely manner. I would recommend to friends and family. Underrated spot in NOVA!!

I like the strong citrus note of the green tea, it was very soothing. The pork momo were juicy and they make the skin in house as well as the chili sauce (if you like spicy, ask for it). The lamb achari jhol comes with rice, but I recommend you also add an order or two of naan.

I had to ask a staff inside to direct me to this spot. Turns out this place is inside a Grocery store.

The ambiance is casual as it located in a grocery store food court but the dishes are well priced and served hot and fresh! I highly recommend you eat the dumplings in store if you order them. I got the Jhol Chicken Momo, which is the best kind. The Johl (tomato, peppers and creamy peanut soup) pairs really well with the dumplings. They also serve spice on the side so you can adjust to your own taste. The sweet mango lassi also pairs well and helps to cut down on the spice! Service is really quick and the server is friendly. Will definitely come back when I am in the area

I always ordered the johl mono, aloo gabi, and either the chicken tikka masala or butter chicken and they're all fantastic! (Though I do with more chicken was added to the masala's and buttered chicken but plenty of rice and curry to eat). Be careful with the spice levels though because someone with a milder palette would find the "medium" to have the kick they're looking for. This restaurant is definitely "Indian" level spicy in their spice scale. I'm going to have to stop by in person for their lunch buffet sometime because food quality is amazing. Highly recommend!

I got an array of takeout including a samosa chaat with pomegranate arils, some classic momos, and a very spicy daal. Even at one level below the maximum spice setting, it was still quite strong, but also loaded with nuanced flavors of spices and greens. Getting a plain paratha to mop up the lentils turned out to be a great decision; I usually get my parathas filled but the plain one was delightfully flaky.
