    Garlic Naan
    Bobby S.

    Every dish was so well seasoned and there wasn't a single bland bite and we tried a lot of dishes. The store is beautifully decorated and the high ceilings pull your eyes to the beautiful art of the yak that welcomes you! Warning... the yak momo is delicious but spicy... especially for young kids. My girls love dumplings but couldn't finish one. We loved the garlic naan... so delicious. We wrapped some butter chicken and rice and loved every bite. The pork belly is crisp and sweet and my kids loved it. The boar meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned with intense seasoning that was perfect! The chicken noodle kids meal was my girls' favorite dish after the butter chicken. The servers were incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Come check it out if you've never had Nepali food!

    I honestly really enjoyed our meal here! The table ordered a variety of items off the menu and everyone really enjoyed their food! We sat outdoors and they had a lazy Susan in the middle of the table of family style dinner which was great. I tried the Yak Dumplings 10/10 Ordered the Yak Briyanni 10/10 The Yak Briyani takes a while to make but it's so worth it!!! You can literally share it with at least 4-5 people. It's more rice than Yak, but still really goooood! I would totally get it again!! I can't wait to go back. The only downside was the bar. If you're looking for a spot to have drinks they don't really have great alcoholic drink options here. Great spot for large groups and there's a parking garage nearby. The staff were great! I believe it's Nepalese food I think

    We had a good Saturday night dinner at Himalayan Wild Yak. Service was good and so was the food. Our order was a compromise given the mix of people, so I expect another visit to be even better. Their momos were yummy, with the chicken ones being somewhat spicy compared to the yak momos. The Tandoor salmon was tasty, but overcooked. The chow mein with yak meat tasted really good, but the yak was overcooked and chewy, almost like a jerky. The cauliflower curry was quite tasty and a reasonable spice level, with the only drawback being more potatoes than cauliflower in it. We each tried different teas - my light green tea (Gyurogo?) smelled and tasted good, but was clearly not worth seven dollars...

    Great Nepalese cuisine with excellent service and a pleasant ambiance. The food was delicious and well prepared. I went with a Nepalese friend, and they confirmed that the flavors are authentic. The biryani was especially good--rich, spicy, and very satisfying. Overall, a great dining experience.

    Since this place opened we've been curious to try since we've never had this type of cuisine. We decided to try this time to finally satisfy our curiosity and sorry to say it's not our thing. We ordered two items to go so cant speak to ambiance or service. Got the Chicken momo with chutney and the Yak short ribs. The chicken momo does not come with chutney but we got it for an extra charge. Glad we did because without the chutney these dumplings are just plain old chicken dumplings. Was so excited to try the yak short ribs but upon opening it up there was a really bad smell. I imagine it must be comparable to boar taint in pork. This is our first time eating yak so I don't know if there should be a smell or not but it was horrendous. We could only eat the rice and felt bad the meat went to waste. The two items we got totaled over $40.

    The ambiance, service and Food was great! We were here on 2/14 and were expecting slow service but that did not occur. We had a reservation and only waited may be 10 minutes before we got seated. We knew exactly what we wanted to order and placed it right away. the food came out timely and food was served hot, like we wanted. Would definitely recommend Himalayan Wild Yak as we've been coming here many times.

    I only did a quick drop in to eat some of my friend's food while they were dining in ---and what I had was absolutely delicious! The portions were nice and the food was flavorful. They have committed fully to their theme of the wild yak and it makes for interesting decor as well. The service was friendly and helpful, as they were supportive in us joining our friends to help finish up their food. I do plan to return the next time I'm in the area to try my own meal! The yak biriyani and the chicken kabob were highlights this time around!

    Menu. They have a happy hour food menu.

    Himalayan food you say? Come to Himalayan Wild Yak at the Brambleton town center. Delicious food with a little kick. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a few drinks and different plates. The service was great and the food came out quickly and delicious. When you walk in, yo you're right is the bar and to the left is the restaurant. We had the wild boar, samosa chat, chicken sekuwa and the roasted potatoes. Loved each as they had a delicious blend of spices and were cooked just right. Come and enjoy! Would recommend.

    Did not have eating yak on my bingo card for my visit to VA. Damn it's great! We had the yak dumplings, I think called momo (so tasty and packed a flavor punch) and a few set meals of yak and lamb curries with veggies and dal. Also had butter chicken (EXCELLENT) and nan bread. Everything was delicious. The service was exceptionally DELIGHTFUL. It's a big lively fun place that I hear is usually slammed busy. Pretty mellow last night and we had a great time.

    This was a super fun and unique dining experience and the food was exceptional. Highly recommend the yak momo and yak korma. Wild boar was also fun to try and very well seasoned! They also have amazing mango lassi. The location and ambience are a little underwhelming but I hope they do well!

The momo's are packed with filling, and so juicy. Dip it in one of the 2 sauces (or both) that you get, and it tastes even better. The chicken chilly momo was my favorite.

It's inside a Liberty gas station right off Little River Turnpike (used to be John Mosby Highway), and from the outside you'd never expect there to be a hidden gem there. I tried the steamed chicken momo, chili chicken momo, and fried chicken momo. My favorite was probably the steamed chicken momo, but the other two were still interesting to try. There's also a Krunch Chicken connected to the momo spot, and honestly the fried chicken was my favorite part of the whole meal. It was super juicy and reminded me of Jollibee because the seasoning actually had flavor on the inside too, not just the outside. I got the 3-piece combo which came with a side of your choice, and a sweet biscuit for around $13. The gravy was super hot which i really liked and the biscuit reminded me of cornbread because of the texture. I spent around $50 total for the three momo orders and the chicken combo. I'd definitely come back for the fried chicken, but I'm not sure I'd go out of my way for the momos again. Also, the gas station itself is kind of like a mini 7-Eleven -- they sell snacks, beer, wine, ice, etc.

Our friends who dined with us tonight traveled to Nepal three times - and tonights meal was spectacular. The chef sent out a course of sel roti with mooli ko achar and trust me -- the deep fried sel roti with the tanginess of the radish pickle in mustard sauce was a great start. Our dinner order was enough for 4 - with a few boxes of leftovers for tomorrow. First course/appetizers we had the crispy kale and the momo (chickened and vegetarian- both were equally delicious). For our main courses, we had the lamb chops( 3 generous and succulent chops) , the tandoori combination ( both lamb and chicken) along with the Aloo cauliflower/potatoes in curry. We also had an order of garlic naan and regular naan. Two of us had a spectacular cocktail that was rimmed with cayenne! The cocktail was great, but we were both caught a little off guard by the heat of the cayenne. For dessert we had the Rasmali - a cheese based dessert that was a lovely ending . Service was attentive , the music lively but set at a perfect volume for ambiance and conversation and timing between courses perfect. We were never hurried or left without attention. They have this perfectly orchestrated. Our Bethesda friends? They'll drive to Arlandria again thats for certain! Great meal, authentic food, fantastic service and a good value.
