Delicious Indian-Nepalese food in a cozy setting. The service was good and the price reasonable for our party of six.

Mango ice cream

Lunch here was quiet and we had no wait. We had delicious food, new flavors and textures. Portions were plenty. Took home my extra naan bread (which was the best I've ever had). Place was decorated with giant yaks and Yeti: Bigfoot hahaha. It was lovely. Service was polite. Would go again

Chicken Assorted Momo
Angelina C.

Delicious food and friendly service. The chicken momos, butter chicken, and masala chai are a few of our favorites when we come in. The bathrooms are clean and the establishment is warm and inviting. We love to come in for a date night.

We ended our Napa trip with dinner at Yak and Yeti and it was a flavorful and hearty meal that our whole group enjoyed. The restaurant itself is cozy and clean and we sat in a booth table in the back. We ordered the momo platter, samosas, vegetable tandoori, salmon and eggplant curry, lamb tikka masala, garlic naan, and rice to go with everything. I really liked the lamb momos, samosas, and the salmon and eggplant curry with the garlic naan. Everything was cooked well with good flavors. I think the lamb in the tikka masala was a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was there. We also had their chai and mango lassi, both of which were sooo good. Service was warm and friendly, it felt like we were having a nice homecooked meal.

Last night we picked up some food to go and damn it was good! Efficient, quick delicious and fulfilling. Great work

Rack of Lamb
Amanda C.

Delicious food, attentive service and close to home- doesn't get any better than this! I enjoyed the Butter Chicken and my husband had their Rack of Lamb with garlic naan. Relaxed indoor seating with great ambiance

Indian food has to be one of my favorite types of cuisine. That being said I've made it a point to stop at least one Indian restaurant in every city we stop in. Having grown up in NY there were endless options and most of them were pretty damn good. That being said Yak & Yeti is hands down the best Indian food I have ever had!!! The staff is so nice, they let you know spice levels in their dishes, explain what is in everything and made great recommendations for the little one. The inside is cozy and warm, very inviting, it's almost like you're sitting down at grandmas house for a family meal. The food is just absolutely amazing, there wasn't one thing that we tried that we didn't like. Listen if you're in the area and you haven't been to Yak & Yeti put it at the top of your list and run there!

Chicken 65
Bob D.

Our favorite Indian/Nepalese place just became a one hr drive away! The food was so flavorful with a choice of spiciness! Very nice servers, Full Bar, and perfect ambience! We weee able to get a table on the fly but I can imagine it gets packed on the weekends... Butter Chicken was so creamy, Chicken 65 was perfectly prepared and yummy, Naan was crispy & chewy and the Lamb Biryani had big chunks of meat! Wanna come back to try the other Nepalese dishes and my wife will always have the Butter Chicken! Thank you!

Featured on Check Please, Bay Area. I ordered the recommended Chicken 65. It was only ok. I should have ordered it medium as the mild was a bit too bland for me. There mild really is mild. I'm used to the mild being a bit spicy and it going up from there. The good thing was the Chicken 65 is all chicken so for $20 it's not a bad deal for the amount of chicken you get. Decor was nice, It's filled with pictures of Yetis and Yaks. Very fun decor. They also have won many awards. They have a full bar that takes up one side of the restaurant. Two people dining alone sat at the bar. I would return, but I would order everything medium? I'm not sure I would order Chicken 65 again. I think I'll try something different next time. We'll be back the next time we're in Napa.

Incredibly tender chicken in a savory, complex yogurt-based curry. Lukshya Saag: 10/10. Perfectly cooked pieces of lamb in a rich curry with tons of spinach. Garlic Basil Naan: 10/10. Light and airy. I usually struggle to finish an order of naan but this was the ideal consistency, with a nice chewiness and the perfect crispness on the bottom. The fresh basil really made it pop! Overall, outstanding food with generous portions at shockingly good prices, considering the location. I'll be back for sure!

Lots of cauliflower and broccoli. - Great naan. The best recommendation I can give you, though, is to order their grape juice. By that, I actually mean juice as in non-alcoholic, not wine, which is technically also grape juice ;) They have this Navarro Pinot Grape Juice that we ordered to try out once, and now we are obsessed. Service can be a tad slow, whether it's busy or not, but the food is always very fresh and worth it. They say on the menu which items can take a little longer as well (momos are like 20 minutes, for instance). They are always friendly and welcoming.

You can tell the chef really makes everything from scratch so it tastes like home cooked meals which is what I prefer. I've tried various dishes on their menu and all of them have been 5 out of 5. Our favorites are the veggie momo's, veggie chow mein, lamb biryani, okra curry and Chana masala. Also their chia hot tea is the best I've tasted outside the home - I drank chai as a child regularly since I lived with a family from Northern Kenya and this place is pretty darn close to how it tasted as a child. Amazing!!! SERVICE: 6 out of 5! The friendly waitress/owner makes you feel welcome right when you walk in... like you're dining at her home.

Dishes like clay oven specialties, several types of curries, (seafood, chicken, goat, lamb), momos, biryani, soup and even Himalayan fried noodles and kabobs. Express Lunch menu (menu notes which items are gluten free and vegan), includes lentil soup, salad, butter naan and choice of white or brown rice. We really appreciated the brown rice option. Chicken tika masala - tandoori roasted chicken simmered in a mild creamy sauce. Our sweet server (owner?) mentioned that about 95% of the people love this dish and I am definitely in that group. Wonderful flavors and generous amount of tender chicken. Tofu, kale & potato curry - ingredients all simmered with basil and coconut milk. Very flavorful and seemed healthy. My husband would definitely order again. Our server was friendly, caring and was always smiling. Two servers were handling the entire dining room plus the outdoor diners and they were seamless in their efforts. Our server had recommended the tika masala to me and she was curious what I thought of it. I would order it again tomorrow! The interior is decorated comfortably. Located across the street from the town green. A lovely and enjoyable first time dining experience here.

Inside the restaurant there is a calming feeling as they were playing slow Hindu chanting music low on their sound system. The first server We began with was very young and maybe learning the menu still as he was really not that good at answering questions on the menu. As soon as we checked in on Yelp, suddenly service picked up. Another more experienced server brought us first, hand towels to wipe out hands (a nice touch, but the towels were almost cold when he brought them, was it an after thought?); and he also brought us complimentary cups of dal that were very tasty. The dishes we got were saag lamb, butter chicken, and organic channa masala, and garlic buttered Naan. Had our first server known how to describe menu better we may have chosen a few different items. He did recommend the butter chicken as one of his favorite so that's why we got it as we often enjoy it other places as well. It was very good, a classic with great sauce, probably the favorite dish. The saag lamb was good too, but we almost got the patak lamb, similar sounding dish but maybe creamier/ other veggie too? But our first server could not really describe difference well. I'm thinking we may have enjoyed the other dish better than saag lamb which was good, but felt the spinach was extremely over cooked, and so finely chopped almost like it was highly minced or powdered? But it was flavorful. The Channa Masala was on the dry side. We we're trying to decide on a saucy vegetable dish and we asked about this dish because we liked that it said organic. That same first server said it was saucy, but not that saucy. Each dish comes with your choice of white or brown rice, or steamed veggies. Two dishes we got brown rice with, and the third we got steamed veggies because we thought there would be more sauce overall to add them too. The rice was allot ( took quite a bit home); the veggies were this nice mix, but so boring with no taste, and what a waste. The veggies even had water floating in bottom of dish. It would be so much nicer if there were an option to have these lightly stirfried with a little flavor as an option ( they were completely bland) , and there was really not enough saucy stuff to add them to so only partially eaten, left remaining there on table instead of taking home with other stuff. We asked for a sample of their side sauces and we got a tiny (like a tablespoon each?) 3 dish sampling of their very tasty homemade mango sauce, tart and tangy cilantro mint sauce, and some sweeter tamarind sauce. But they were very tiny amounts. The Naan was light and crisp, very nice, but could barely taste garlic butter. We asked for our dishes to be medium heat and it was fairly mild for us still, but i guess with American palate, spicy can be relative. But oh well. We also had cups of chai (under $5.00) that had refills, and a glass of house white wine ( Murphy good Sauvignon Blanc was only $8.00 so that was a deal). I'm giving 4 stars for their efforts, but hope they read this so they can improve a few things.

I had called to see if they would be open on July 4th, and they actually called me a few hours later after checking with the owner and they confirmed, yes they would be open regular hours.

He is most positive, friendly and conscientious He keeps an eye on all the diners, removing plates, replacing water for the table with a new chilled bottle, and he keeps a close eye on all the buffet items and communicates with the chef when something needs replenishing. The food is, therefore, hot, fresh and incredibly delicious. The one thing we really appreciated is they offer brown and white rice. We much prefer brown rice so that was another positive along with fresh greens. They provide the table with a huge order of fresh naan bread when you first sit down too.
