Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5
1

Choose momos. Start with momos, especially fried, steamed or jhol versions; they are the clearest strength across the reviews.

2

Skip fried rice. If choosing from the wider menu, consider noodles or traditional Nepali dishes instead of fried rice, which one diner found reheated.

The Bottom Line

Yak & Yeti is a casual Nepalese restaurant in Al Quoz where momos are the main draw. Reviews repeatedly point to steamed, fried, chicken, buff, beef and jhol momo, with several diners saying the flavour reminds them of Nepal or Kathmandu. For a more substantial meal, the thakali set, buff choila and chicken choila are strong choices, while sukiti and bhuttan add less familiar traditional options.

The setting is described as cosy but small, with around eight to ten tables; another review notes both indoor and outdoor seating. It has also handled birthday meals and family gatherings, and service is often described as friendly and attentive. One diner received buff momo within 11 minutes, though speed may vary.

Takeaway and delivery are available, with one customer praising an on-time family-gathering order. There are a few practical cautions. Fried rice was criticised as reheated, with hard chicken pieces, and one delivery arrived with chicken instead of a vegetarian dish.

A regular customer also repeatedly received white sauce after requesting red. Parking is paid, although one section reportedly includes one free hour. For a first visit, focus on momos or a thakali set and confirm delivery details carefully.
