We initially dined in the restaurant last year and were so impressed by the quality and beautiful flavours of the food, it tastes as if it's made with love and care. Now despite living in Wales, we collect food to take home every time we visit family in the area, we even get extra Momo's to save for the freezer. The staff are so helpful and sweet, even giving us extra red sauce (and an amazing chili pickle) when we ask. Highly recommend.

I recently dined at Yak n yeti and had a fantastic experience, largely thanks to Arbina, the front of the house staff. She was amazing! As someone who had never tried Nepali food before, I relied on her recommendations, and they did not disappoint. The momo was delicious, and the tawa was a standout dish. Although I'm not usually a fan of sweet things, I found the mango lassi delightful—it struck the perfect balance! Exceptional service. Arbina made the visit even more enjoyable. I felt like I was in good hands throughout my meal. I will definitely be returning—100%!

Popped in with Dad and my dog Ziggy. As an Asian food enthusiast with a soft spot for Nepalese culture, I was happy to try this gem. The staff were lovely and allowed Ziggy in as long as he behaved. The food was tasty with authentic flavours, and the traditional music had Ziggy wagging his tail. The staff's friendliness were top-notch, and they adjusted the spice levels perfectly to our taste. If you're into Indian cuisine, this place is a must-visit. Good service, delicious food, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Absolutely beautiful food and if in doubt you should go. We love Nepalese food at home and have a good Nepalese community where we are. This was 100 times even better. Gorgeous spicing using ginger, garlic and chilli harmoniously on their momo, sauces and curries. We had their specials and they were great. The magic chicken starter was actual herbal and aromatic magic! And then... the byriani!

We came across this place because of its great reviews. The food was delicious. The service was super friendly. We went there on Sunday afternoon during the quieter period. We ordered 1 starter and 2 mains, and it was more than enough. Great portions, too, and we had the Nepalese beer. Highly recommend it.

You must visit the iconic, Victorian Spa town of Great Malvern , nestling in the Malvern hills. While youre there treat yourself to a meal at the Nepalese Indian restaurant, the Yak N Yeti. The food is excellent. The staff are polite, friendly and discreet. The ambiance is calm and relaxing. We have eaten at many Indian restaurants but the Yak N Yeti is definitely one of the best. We thoroughly recommend it. You wont be disappointed.

Undoubtedly the worst sushi I have ever had. I never leave a bad review but the yak and yeti should not be making or serving sushi and have made a mockery of this skilled art. If you are going to market sushi, your current chef needs to be sent on a course or fired. Your quality, and chilled temp control is way off. Using sub standard and incorrect ingredients could seriously harm customers. Take this feedback and get much better very quickly or risk a hefty complaint. The gurkha beer was good , but the sushi has left me feeling sick

Absolutely superb food! We love a Nepalese curry and Yak N Yeti did themselves proud! Great service, we never felt crowded or missed out. The pickles that came with the popadoms were a little different to the usual and nicely tasty, we shared a Vegetable Manchurian starter which was amazing, we had a Gurkha curry and a Lamb Tawa as mains with saag aloo, and loved every mouthful, plus probably the best peshwari naan I ve ever tasted. Good beer too. Can t fault this pace at all and would gladly return if in the area again. We thought good value too, especially these days! Totally recommend! Vegetarian options: Plenty for vegetarians.

I had to look up awesome in the OED just in case it had been redefined as the Yak n Yeti. The authentic exterior looks incongruous to the untrained Western eye, but it conceals the best Nepalese food Ive tasted outside Nepal. I had the Pokhara dish just because the city contains fond memories for me from trekking the Annapurna Circuit, but I struck lucky as this hot offering was utterly superb. If youre not used to spicy food either take a Class AB fire extinguisher for your tongue or pick one of the zero-chilli rated curries I am reliable informed the non-spicey dishes are equally as delicious. With very reasonable prices, a wide menu, generous portions, and a warm and friendly service, this establishment cannot be beaten. Ive consumed a fair amount of Asian cuisine in my time, and I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant as one of the best in its class - you wont be disappointed. 5 stars on all counts.

Our food was served after that of several other tables that arrived after we had ordered, and a few dishes were missing. We informed the waiter and the missing dishes were still not delivered before we finished the rest of the meal and requested the bill. Its a little trivial but the waiter handing plates and cutlery to one end of the table to be passed down to the other isnt the service you expect at a restaurant, given that every other Indian restaurant in Malvern has such a high standard. The plates were cold and the food was warm at best. Another trivial complaint but the lights in the toilets are so dim I thought the emergency lights were on and flicked the switch, only to find myself in total darkness. Would not recommend, especially given the proximity to the Anupam.

I dont eat-out often so when I do, it needs to be special. My wife has spent time in N. India and tasted Nepalese cooking as a vegetarian, so suggested we try the Yak & Yeti as a treat. Well, as a committed omnivore I am now delighted with Nepalese cooking and can recommend both their tender lamb Kathmandu dishes and garlic chicken tikka which was real chicken breast and not that horrible rubbery stuff that some restaurants serve-up. The staff were lovely and could not do enough for us. Altogether, a special evening and VERY reasonably priced. I recommend this restaurant for a wide range of Nepalese and Indian food, from mild to hot. Its there for us here in lovely Malvern and we should support them if we can, as the restaurant trade is entering tough times...

What a little gem..... Had a takeaway from here last night and wasnt expecting too much but was so surprised at the result. The speed of the order being prepared was so quick, the service was great and was so friendly. But the food was lovely on top of that, cooked to perfection, one of the best madras lamb Currys Ive ever had. The spices were just right, the lamb was so soft it just melted in your mouth. So if you want to find your new favourite curry, then give this a go and you wont be disappointed.
