    This is my go-to place for Indian food in Davis. As a former Bay Area resident, I find Indian food in Davis lacking, but Yeti itches that scratch. I can't really comment on the service or ambiance since I typically order to go. From my limited interaction, the staff is friendly enough and restaurant looks clean enough. My typical order includes samosas, samosa chat, any biriyani, naan, paneer saag, and a meat curry (typically lamb or goat). The food is always good and I find it to be of great value. I will say that I've ordered the chicken curries before and found it to be very dry, hence I stick to other meats. The curries themselves are quite flavorful and thick, perfect for naan and pouring over rice. I haven't had any Nepalese food yet, but I've heard great things about it.

    Saag Paneer with Rice

    5 stars as always. This place has friendly service, great seating options, and superb flavors. I would bathe in their tikka sauce! Their naan bread basket is a must. I always order a side of tikka sauce to take home and use for my own veggie tikka. Absolutely amazing food and vegetarian options.

    I went on a Saturday afternoon to eat with a friend. The service was attentive. There was only one other group dining when we were there and so the food came out fairly quickly. We both ordered thali plates for only $5 extra compared to the regular entree. They come with various vegetable side dishes, the entree, naan, and rice which was tons of food for just an extra $5! We ordered the Nepali samosas which had vegetables and potatoes in it for the appetizer. I ordered the tomato chickpea dish Saag Chana for my main entree which is spinach and garbanzo beans cooked with spices, tomatoes, and onion gravy. It was delicious! Even though I got the vegetarian entree I was still full from all the food the thali plate comes with. The plate comes with dessert also which I'm not sure what the name of the dessert is. I think it might be Indian rice pudding. It's a really great deal for about $20! I couldn't finish all my food and took some leftovers home. Overall, would highly recommend this place! Delicious food for a great deal!

    Lamb Vindalo with Rice, Thali Style

    Whenever I roadtrip near the Davis area, Yeti is one of my favorite places for a filling dinner. I have been coming here for years, and I have enjoyed their rice dishes, curries, and momos. This time, I went with the lamb vindaloo and shared some veggie momos with the table. I recommend getting entrees "thali style" which will add rice, naan, curry, dall, and a sweet rice dessert. At only $5 extra, this is an excellent deal and close to what some big city restaurants charge for more than once piece of naan... Service has consistently been welcoming over the years and they keep the restaurant warm and cozy in the winter, but not too hot to enjoy the warm curry.

    Have been coming to Yeti for ~8 years now, and it's some of the best Indian food around. Always very flavorful and great service.

    Chicken Tikka Masala Nepalese Thali Style

    When around the UC Davis area and we feel like Indian Food, Yeti is the spot! The place is a tad small, but they do have outdoor seating as well. The service is as expected. We came on a busy day, and there was only one person taking orders, so it did take some time to take our orders and take payment. But not a reason to not come here haha. Take note, the entrees can be Ala Carte, or "Nepalese Thali Style". If you're hungry and want a Nepalese twist, get your entree Nepalese Thali Style. It includes Nepalese pickles, vegetable curry of the day, lentil soup, dessert and naan. We ordered the Saag Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala. Now, we've had these dishes at other Indian restaurants, but for some reason, these dishes at Yeti are elevated! They taste much better here haha. We also got the Nepalese Samosa, and they are an excellent start to any meal here. When in the area, definitely try this place out!

    Buttered Naan

    3.6 Atmosphere was a 2.5/5 Food was decent, good naan Lamb with curry was great. Chicken was a little meh, dry but the dipping sauce were good.

    Chicken korma

    A bit pricey for the portions. The cheapest dish was about 15 (all come with rice). The curry is about the size of 1.5 bowls you would get at a Chinese restaurant if you ordered individual bowls of rice. It was tasty, but nothing special. Instead I might go to Kathmandu (worse flavors but larger size) or Preethi (worse ambiance for a friendly gathering but better flavors and more dish options) instead. Kind, non-intrusive servers though.

    enjoyed my meal here! came by for a weekend dinner and was quickly seated. the restaurant is cute, good vibes and great service. i ordered the chef's special lamb curry and it was delicious! i ordered spicy and it was a perfect amount of spice for me. i got it thali style which i always recommend and i enjoyed all the sides alongside my entree. would definitely recommend coming by and sitting outside!

    When I was an undergrad over a decade ago, I would only come here for the lunch buffet, and it was…read moremy favorite lunch buffet to go to. Fast forward to now, my husband, sister, and I decided to come here for dinner because yeti restaurant was closed. For those who haven't been in here before, the best way I can describe this restaurant is dark. Paint is dark, booth are dark. Everything is kind of moody and dark. Definitely not my kind of aesthetic, but does that really matter for this restaurant? No. The service is always fine. Staff is always friendly enough and fast. When we got the food, we were pleasantly surprised, like I said before I have only eaten at the buffet here and that was over a decade ago. While we were eating, we noted that we actually enjoyed the flavors here more than we enjoy the flavors at yeti restaurant. Something about the blend of spices just fits our palette more than the other restaurant. We found that there was an adequate amount of food, they didn't skimp out on meats, and we were overall really happy with our meal. Is it the best Indian food I've ever had? No, but it was really good by Davis standards and consider considering that there aren't a ton of Indian places in the Sacramento area. I think this might be our new go to Indian place now! I'm glad I gave this another shot!

    First of all, this spot gets a bad rap sometimes and I think it's because people are used to a…read morecertain regional Indian cuisine and people don't realize the variety of the Indian subcontinent. Kathmandu Kitchen is named after a city in Nepal, so it should be no surprise the food here is Indian and Nepali. While I can't speak to the flavor or authenticity of their momos or other Nepali staples, their curries are extremely delicious and distinct from other Indian restaurants and recipes I've tried. I think the first thing you might notice is that a lot of their curries have a touch of sweetness, and pretty much all of their curries have a consistent texture. They do an amazing job making each curry silky and rich and flavorful. Every dish tastes fresh and unique in their own spice profiles and marinades. I highly recommend the paneer tikka masala, chicken makhani (very similar/the same as butter chicken I think), kitchen masala, and basil curry. Also, their actual restaurant experience is very nice too. The staff is very courteous and professional. The restaurant is large, vibey, and clean. There are two reasons I don't give Kathmandu a 5 star. The first that both me and partner almost always need to add salt to the dish. I could see why someone might write off Kathmandu if they went a few times and wrote it off because they never tried adding salt to their dish. The second reason is that the spice level isn't as consistent as I'd like. Sometimes, asking for medium spice level results in almost no heat, sometimes it borders on too much. Sometimes getting hot spice level is hot but enjoyable, sometimes it's very hot even for me. Mild is consistent but Id guess that's because they simply don't add extra hot chili powder or something like that. Overall, I highly recommend this spot if you love Indian food and want to try some Nepali spins and flavors.

    If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. We stopped here on our drive back from South Lake…read moreTahoe to San Jose, and it was easily the best decision of our trip. First, the restaurant itself is fantastic. The Indian buffet is excellent, everything was fresh and packed with flavor, and the ambience is wonderful. The entire staff was incredibly welcoming from the moment we walked in. But what happened next proved that the owner is a genuinely amazing person. Our car broke down right in their driveway, and we were stuck waiting a long time for a tow truck. The owner Dilawar didn't just tolerate us blocking the path; he actively took care of us. He checked on us constantly to make sure we were comfortable, let us plug in our phones to charge, and when it became clear we had to spend the night at a nearby hotel, he personally drove us there himself. This level of hospitality is almost unheard of these days. Incredible food, immaculate vibes, and a business owner with a massive heart. Please support this place--they deserve every bit of success!

Looking at the number of items they had for the buffet, it was expensive $22 something. I think, this is under new ownership right now. I didn't see anyone who was working here before.

You can tell they put a lot of care into the food because every dish had its own distinct flavor instead of everything tasting the same. The sauces were rich and delicious, the portions were generous, and the food came out hot and fresh. I also really appreciated how friendly and attentive the service was. The whole experience felt warm and welcoming. This is definitely one of those places where you leave already thinking about what you want to order next time . If you're craving Indian food in Vacaville, I would absolutely recommend giving Essence a try. We loved it and will definitely be back!

After trying it I had to come back with my wife to share that experience. It's a crispy and savory appetizer that comes with a tamarind and mint juice that when combined is an experience itself. Both refreshing and comforting - it tastes like a healthy snack that is also a close comparison to texture of potato chips. We also ordered two naan and we each got butter chicken. They were delicious, flavorful, and filling. To celebrate Father's Day we each got a dessert. The saffron ice cream was super unique, and was enjoyable. The pudding was very tasty and was our preference. The ice cream we both felt was refreshing and not overly sweet. Our service was wonderful - reservation and they called to confirm (about 5 minutes before) and had us seated immediately. Our waiter checked on us often without being too frequent, a good balance of support. Ambiance is intimate - smaller indoor seating area of about 10 tables and you can see the staff the whole time. Clean and comfortable restaurant and great service. Highly recommend - and I'd recommend the naan, butter chicken, and pani puri (going to adventure out and try more when we come back again!)
