Yak and Yeti Restaurant and Brewpub

"3.5 stars. Customer service was fantastic when I came here with a group of friends to explore the Indian/Nepalese buffet. There were a few things I really liked off the buffet, especially the Vegetarian Korma (which is surprising for a meat eater!) and I mostly appreciated the wide selection. We ordered momo's on top of that. I want to try the beer at this location next time. It was a decent time, but I think this place is overhyped overall!"

"Nepalese cuisine? A lot of what is on the menu is similar to Indian food, but there are some items that I have not seen elsewhere. First off, you can have yak meat in many of the dishesIt is worth noting that Tarkari is basically a curry dish and daal is the same lentil soup that you'd find at many Indian restaurants. So, Daal Bhat Tarkari is a set meal that consists of lentil soup, rice, and curry. Apparently, this is a national dish of Nepal. One of our fellow diners got this and it looked very good. He was happy with his choice. As with many places, they offer several spice levels, depending on your preference. The momo (dumplings) are a traditional street food and are a nice way to start the meal, though not really required since the dinner portions are generous. Of our group, most people ordered either a curry or a vindaloo at various levels of spiciness and meats ranging from chicken to yak. Yak is mostly like beef to me, and at a high spice level, it was difficult to tell the difference. I think everyone enjoyed their meals as the plates were clean at the end of the meal. We ate in the "garden" area outside and it was nice. They seem to allow pets in that area. I'd like to eat inside next time since on our way through, it looked to be very interestingly decorated. The service was good throughout the meal, although once our plates were cleared, it seemed like we were forgotten and we had to just about grab a server to get them to let us pay. They were pretty busy, but I'd think you'd want to turn a table to get more people in faster. I recommend a reservation, especially if there is something going on at the nearby school or if you have more than a few people in your party. Either that or be ready to wait for a while."

"Lunch buffet was awesome and was reasonably priced. My favorites were the hot tea,mango dessert, and the tandoori chicken. They had a full bar, but I wasn't up for a drink yet. The service was fine and we were seated quickly. Note that the bathroom is outside, shared with a few of the other businesses there, I assume."

"Solid spot with a nice ambiance and a good lunch buffet. While the options for the lunch buffet was a bit more limited than other lunch buffet, it's still worthwhile.My favorite thing was their tandoori chicken and I added their mango chutney to it. The creamed spinach was also really good.The service was good, ultimately you help yourself and they will bring you whatever drinks you want and naan bread.I've had other places I like better but still overall if you're craving a good Indian place and you're in the area, this place should do the trick.I would come back, happy eating!!"

"The butter naan was fluffy as air and so was the kesar khofta, I have never tasted such a melt-in-the -mouth kofta ever in the US.The veg biryani was great, lots of veges , cooked with long grain basmati, but I should remember to order less spicy next time. We had to mix plain rice to make it edible and the raita was just not enough. The starter we chose was gobi Manchurian and that felt like a small portion compared to other restaurants we have had, but the taste was above others too so wont complain about the portion.Its a great Indian restaurant, with great food and ambiance and Basant was extremely polite and ready to make recommendations, or answer questions. He is very proud of his restaurant and that is for a good reason, he takes great care to maintain quality of the food. Choose appropriate spice and u r set."

The Yak and Yeti - Westminster

★★★★☆ 3.9 (565) • $$

"You cannot beat The Yak when it comes to fantastic, consistent across locations, Indian food. Yak & Yeti is our go to as a family. Our daughter was home for the weekend from college and had been missing Indian food. This location has plenty of parking and is easy to get to. There is ample seating in the dining room. The staff is welcoming and our waters were never empty.We ordered three entrees for the four of us to share, but we all got our own order of Naan. Because, naan, right? Cannot get enough of that stuff. They give you Papadams when you sit down with several chutneys. The cilantro and the tamarind are my favorites.We had both chicken and sweet potato Tikka Masala as well as Tandoori chicken. It was paired with their seasoned rice. The onions and peppers that came with the Tandoori were tasty. Go, just go! If you have not had the wonderful food at a Yak & Yeti location, you need to go!"

"When I visited family in January, we ordered food from here through Grub Hub. It was so good that I asked family to eat it again, and we went to the restaurant.The food is phenomenal. Great flavors and textures, multiple spice levels, Inside is cozy and charming with great Indian decor. The service is very attentive.We ordered lots of food for our group including the naan, pakora, samosas, and went with Chicken biryani, chicken korma, chicken vindaloo, and we washed it down with Taj beers. I also recommend Kheer, which is a tasty rice pudding that cools the palate when you are done.I will be back!"

"I'll get right to it. The food here is great! Try their Chicken65. It's boneless chicken that's so full of flavor! I could lick offthe plate clean! ‍For our entry we shared the Shish-kebob and Lamb Saag. The former was loaded with flavor! The latter? The lamb was tender and the portions were great. So tasty! Both dishes came with rice. I got my Mango Lassi for free because I checked in on Yelp! I like my lassi thick and not too sweet. This fits the bill perfectly! We also had an order of naan. The service was awesome! Friendly and polite. Everything was cooked fresh and served piping hot. I like this place.So I don't understand the low rating. I know they could use some colors on their walls. They need to somehow brighten those walls or decorate it with colorful stuff. They have a good-sized patio. Try them if you're in the area. You might end up loving this place!"

"Based on recent recommendations, I came here for some chaat. We got the sev puri and dahi puri and the dahi puri was really good. What disappointed me is the sev puri was just dahi puri without the dahi - that's not sev puri! You don't serve sev puri in a golgappa puri. Filter coffee was good. I did however try their Vijaywada biryani recently and that was very good. Service is slow! Increasing a star only for their biryani!"

"We came for dinner. I think probably the Thali plates offer better variety than ordering one dish per person - and not sharing. So make sure to share! The service was very good, and the ambiance is ok. I had the Paneer Masala, which was packed with paneer and the gravy was flavorful. Although for the dinner price of each dish it is on the small side. They did bring us more rice as needed, but naan prices were also a bit high."

"We came here on a Saturday night for dinner, and there wasn't many people. We got a table right away for the two of us. It's a well decorated restaurant and I like the ambience. The menu had a good variety. The waitress was really nice and gave us some good recommendations. I ordered the tandoori chicken and my friend ordered the chicken masala. The food came out pretty fast and we each tied each other's food. We both liked it. They give a pretty good portion. And prices weren't bad. I would go back for Indian food. But I heard that it's a chain and I have one closer to me, so I'll probably go to that one."

"I cannot express enough how great of an experience we always have at India's Kitchen II:Tonight, we ordered a Kingfisher beer, two mulligatawny soups (one hot and one mild), tandoori chicken, chicken curry, chicken mo mo, and garlic naan. Absolutely fantastic. As usual.The service is fast and friendly. The food is delicious and when you ask for mild, they make it mild. When you ask for hot, they make it hot. I just wish they had their pre-COVID buffet available. It was like like the star on top of a beautiful Christmas tree. (This is me me remembering the greatness.)We come here often, and for a reason. I have never - not once - had a remotely unpleasant meal or experience here. If you haven't already, please try it!"

"First time ordering from here, and I'm only giving a 3/5 because the food was hot and delivered quickly over DoorDash. But based on the food alone, my rating would be closer to a 1 or 2/5. The garlic naan was really dry, tasted old--it was so dry and stale it tasted almost more like a cracker and actually CRUNCHED in my mouth--and did not have much garlic flavor. My partner had the chicken tikka masala. The chicken was tender but because the chunks are so large, it tasted dry and wouldn't be palatable without drowning it in sauce, and unfortunately, the sauce itself wasn't very flavorful. I did appreciate that the saag paneer wasn't too salty, though it was a bit bland and flavorless. The papadam was perfect, although we didn't receive any chutney with our order, which I'm used to other Indian restaurants giving. Overall, the food is decent enough if you're really, really craving Indian food and there's no other fast option. But given the price (~$18 per entree), I don't think I would order from here again. Note: the price of the chicken tikka masala and saag paneer includes rice! We didn't know this and ended up with way too much rice because we'd ordered a bowl separately."

Parking was super easy and if you check in on Yelp you get free chai which was the high point!"

★★★★☆ 3.7 (340) • $$

"I worked in India during my career and fell in love with the food. One of my favorite breakfast/brunch dishes is sambhar and idli. I have been eating at Masalaa for years pre-COVID at their buffet. Now that they are on my drive from the stable, I stopped to order sambhar and idli as it had been a favorite of mine on the buffet. I was greeted with a smile and a nod, my order taken, and I was talked into a Chai to go. I was so pleased with my brunch, two large idli, a nice container of sambhar, and two sauces, tamarind and cilantro. And of course, the chai was as advertised, delicious. I paid around $10 for my meal and thought it was a great deal by today's standards. The dining room is small and cozy for when I decide to eat in. I know this will become a regular."

Durbar Nepalese & Indian Bistro

"Great restaurant with friendly people and yummy food. Been here and ordered takeout several times. I usually always order saag paneer (palak paneer) when I go to Indian/Nepalese restaurants. The one they have here is really good and I love getting hot. The butter chicken, vindaloo, and tikka are also good options. Not crowded at all on a Friday night. We got cheese garlic naan for the first time and I couldn't really tell the difference between that one an normal garlic naan. Good ambiance overall."

"Takeout dinner delivered after holiday swim. The rice was so beautiful and flavorful that I went back for more, then more again. If even the rice receives such attention from the chefs, how wonderful must the entrees be? (Hint: VERY wonderful!). No photos, because we were all too hungry (and I forgot). This is the best Indian meal I've ever enjoyed, from the naan to the lamb samosas to the amazing creamy saag paneer. Did I mention the rice?"

"Food was wonderful! We came in during a weekday lunch to use a coupon and to catch up with each other (three of us girlfriends). We shared chicken tikka masala, lamb vindaloo, saag paneer, and cheese naan (YUM!!). We saw a 50% off wine bottles sign and went for it! The wine definitely enhanced our meal and was only $12 for the bottle of Chardonnay. No lunch buffet during these pandemic days. Hoping that India's Kitchen III gains some traction as it's somewhat hidden off Arapahoe Road. I see the restaurant is trying its best to promote themselves (with coupons/deals). Definitely would come back and recommend it to others!!"

Their garlic is more puffy than some other Indian places and their samosas are a little smaller but flavorful. Will try them again, my food was ready for pickup in 20 minutes."

"When I utilized this business a little while back, I really didn't have a great experience; it was mostly not so great service where the lady who assisted me had no friendliness in her facial expression or words she uttered. My daughter who recently got a takeout from here pretty much agreed with me when it came to service (although she absolutely enjoyed the food itself.) I, however, believe in giving people or businesses a second chance so I went here just the other night to get myself a quick dinner (to which my daughter accompanied me.) To my surprise, I had a much better experience this time. The male worker upfront immediately greeted us upon arrival; he was polite with professionalism. He didn't rush me in any way; he patiently waited until I knew what I wanted. Once I had told him what I wanted he immediately transacted the order to which I settled the tab. While I was waiting for my food, I took the time to look around the restaurant to notice everything inside the it. The restaurant was very clean. The long/skinny layout of it is somewhat modern. It also has a good size patio seating. All the way back to the end (east side of it) there is a party area/room. It appears it can possibly hold 30-40 people. There was a customer who dines here on a regular basis (he also identified himself a friend to the business owner) and he friendlily spoke to us as he noticed us when walked in. He was sort of acting like the spokesperson of the restaurant and he said to talk to the manager if we had any questions or problems with anything with this place as the manager/owner truly cares about their customers' needs and satisfaction. What a nice guys!! After 10-15 minutes, my food was finally ready. At home, I immediately started my meal. Let's get to the main topic of this review: the food!!!Vegetable samosas: my daughter made a recommendation on this. When it comes to samosas I like chunky/dense ones. This restaurant makes their samosas thin. They tasted good but I still like my samosas made chunky stuffed with all kinds of ingredients with more density. These are 7 out of 10.Kari Pakora: Lemony curry with a good amount of kick (its spiciness is quite noticeable.) Unlike other typical curries, this one is not as heavily stewed so the texture is closely resembling to soups (more like) so in that sense, it's a light curry. I've never had a curry like this and I dig this very much; 8.5 out of 10 (the rice that accompanied the curry had a lot of saffron in it. In a way, I like my rice more plain so that it's not too overpowering to kill the flavors of the curry. It wasn't bad though!)To conclude my experience this time, it was quite good; 8 out of 10 for everything I had experienced. This place definitely made the list of my favorite Indian restaurants in Denver for sure."

"Amazing customer service, everyone we met here was very kind and friendly. You can order food at the counter or you can sit down with your party and dine in. Very chill and casual ambiance.Everyone loved the Gaia mint peach drink, it was a refreshing way to start. We ordered many dishes and shared, but some of the favorites were the cheesy tandoori fries, garlic naan, and hamburgers. They have the most spiciest hamburgers here. We had people literally sweating at our table! Only order that if you can handle the heat. Parking lot outside, always nice to have a dedicated lot in Denver.Awesome place, make sure to stop by here!"
