1st time here and what a fantastic experience, the staff were very helpful and talked us through the menu. We had battered King prawns & chilli chips for starters, the chips were really good. Main meals of Annapurna Chicken & Everest Lamb with rice & papadum & chutney. All absolutely delicious.

We had a lovely time. The service was quick, polite and unobtrusive. The food was excellent. The meat tender, good quality and well cooked. The food was flavoursome and spicy. Excellent ice cream and very alcoholic liqueur coffee! The ventilation is very good, so the food smells never become overwhelming even when the restaurant is very busy, as it was on the evening we were there - you leave with your clothes smelling fresh despite the lovely, aromatic food.I would recommend this restaurant

The food is good, reasonably priced and very popular place because it's so popular they put a time limit on how long we had to order & eat our meal, and we booked in advance. Felt like we were just cattle get in feed and get out.

We are regular visitors to York and have tried a lot of the restaurants in the city, we thought we would give the Yak and Yeti a try having never tried Nepalese food before. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and the service was friendly and efficient We would definitely return for a second visit when visiting York again.

Excellent food with very attentive staff. It is a lovely family run restaurant that is only let down by its poor desert offerings. I would return regardless.

Ambiance - small, a bit crowded, noisier than I would like - conversation was difficult without shouting. Staff - friendly, welcoming and extremely efficient. Food - absolutely delicious and I appreciated that we asked how spicy we would like it to be. General - although the place was so busy they turning people away, we were not rushed or made to feel uncomfortable. Value for money - yes - definitely. Would visit again.
