REVIEWS OF Yak & Yeti Cafe IN Alaska

Michael Barry

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. We took food to go. Food was made wrong. Found ot when we got to where we were going. Went back and had it re-made. Made wrong twice. All they did was remove the items originally asked to be left out. This place is a joke. Don't waste your time here..

Ben Daniel

Always fast, delicious and polite. Best quick Himalayan food you will ever find. 10/10 will go this week again.

Ariel Walker

Super delicious food. Healthy and yet did not hinder taste at all.

Stephen Blankenship

Always a fantastic, satisfying meal.

Patricia Rivera

Very satisfying comfort food. The best chai.

A C

Awesome food.

David Brown

Fantastic food and inexpensive

Ethan Link

This place is well worth seeking out in the southern part of Anchorage. It has a good local following without the tourist line-out-the-door, though it may deserve it. Particularly on chilly days, the daal, vindaloo, and chana will warm you up without weighing you down. If you've been suffering a lot of road food, get the red cabbage salad with peanut dressing, califlaur, and peas; it brought me back to life. A special part of Y&Y is their amazing house-made deserts and pastries. They're worth their own visit. Pair it with real-deal (not powder mix) chai tea. Stay warm

Comfy cafe for a quick bite. I like the rice bowls with your choice of 1 to 3 curries.

William Ruzicka

Tried this place yesterday and loved it. Went back today and got their rice bowl. After getting back to work I was eating it and I felt something like a bone in my mouth. I pulled it out and it was a small wire 1/8 inch long. Will not be returning due to the low quality preperation, and now I'm concerned I swollowed wire.

Utkarsh Sahu

This place is good for quick indian bite. They offer some curries, bakery sweets and chai. Reasonable price.

Conrad Choy

Love the food

Fj Ness

I eat here once a month because the food is pretty good and the prices are unbeatable.

Ming Stephens

Curry bowls are a great quick meal, with plenty of options for customization. Skip the dessert, unless you're into stiff sugary confections.

Richard Bullington

The best Chai this side of Chennai!

Diki Doleck

Chai was way too sweet. Cut down on the sugar please!

Benjamin Carney

A good place to enjoy a good bite to eat.

Deiniol Avery Ballais

The food offered is a variety that isn't very common amongst the numerous American burger joints in Alaska. I personally love the 2 entree choice, and always have picked the palak paneer as one of them. The price is good, the food is tasty, and you'll feel full, but without feeling disgusted about yourself.

Larissa Shooter

Yak and Yeti is my favorite. I love their curries and their chai tea is delicious.

Emily Halston

Great food at great prices. This outlet does not serve their entire menu from their Spenard Rd location, but is perfect for lunch or dinner as well as quick carry out!

Kelsey Dihle

Such good food! Will definitely return!

Jason Gast

No complaints, great food, fast service, clean. Casual sit down area with plenty of tables. I like how they slide the orders across the metal wire to the kitchen/prep area.

David Basler

Still as good as ever. My favorite spot in this strip. I always like going here, about 2/3 of the staff on average is the same guys.

Unusual and affordable. Service and food very good.

Abram Goodstein

This place is such a gem. It's kinda a Nepalese place disguised as an Americana place. You walk in and and think oops did I just walk into the coffee shop next door. However a quick glance at their menu on the chalk board suggests you have landed in the right place. Though those delicious baked convections displayed prominently in a window confuses me again. But the aroma of eastern spices pulls me back in. So yeah, it's not your Sherpa's Nepalese restaurant but it tastes great.

James Farmer Jr

YUM! I absolutely love the rice bowls for lunch. Do yourself a favor and stop in here for a bite to eat.

Ravi Srivastava

Good food and good tea

Leslie Brooks

Gmail Tom Westheimer

Wish i can give 0. We clearly asked if there is any eggs in some of the dishes. They said no but i had egg allergy. It is very bad that they dont take things seriously. Usually any Indian vegetarian dishes are not supposed to contain eggs in the first place. Even though we checked with them before eating. After all the food tastes more like turmeric. No flavor. But we still didn’t complain anything coz there are very less options around. We thought of being thankful for what we got ! But not anymore !

Jia Hui Sim

My all time favorite! Pork vindaloo n chai I what I get every time we go!

Stefania Kristjansson

Far Minded

Thomas Day

Tasty food but the rice bowls are, well, mostly rice. Could stand to have a greater sauce/curry to rice ratio.

Freedom Evenden

Justine Riekena

Laura Wright

Very affordable, good food, good service. A little hole in the wall. Deserves more recognition

Leigh Anne Gubatayao

Everything is delicious. Most meals are about $10, which for Anchorage is quite a deal.

Deborah Trimmer

Wonderful Nepalese food, very affordable. A curry bowl, cucumber salad and chai and you are set! Another Anchorage gem.

Carrie McCrorie

They make chocolate cookies with frosted filling called Moreos. They are delicious and really big. On a chilly day, try a rice bowl with Chicken Tikka Masala. It’s warm and creamy with some really yummy spices.

Mareth Griffith

Good, reasonably priced. Love their rice bowls. Good veggie options.

Ryan

Good food, good price. If you want something a little different but still need to eat quick. This is a great place to go. You pick your rice you pick your entree they put it in a bowl and you are eating within 10 minutes.

KAE, Inc.

Quick service and friendly staff. I always order the potato leek soup or the chopped salad. The dressing on the salad is a must-have. I often order some in a cup to go to use at home.

ashley johnson

The food is amazing. I like the selection for the bowls, and my daughter (11) loves the shapta sandwich. It's my favorite on longer summer days when I realize I haven't had lunch, and it's almost time for dinner, and I want to eat something yummy and filling and get back to enjoying the sun. Personally the moreo isn't my thing, but I am in the minority on this.

Abigail Smothers

Just awful. They were very rude, and completely messed up my order. Won’t ever be coming here again.

Rob Moriarty

Good food and lots of it.

Andrew Scott

Good desserts, great gyros.

Jesse Londborg

Patti Davidsen

Excellent food, slightly pricey

Jerry Kung

Good place for a quick bite to eat. I recommend the spinach with cheese and chicken masala.

Mama Rora

Fab place for lunch. Grest food and fast service.

John Kelly

Good service and presentable food, just too salty and bland for our tastes.

Charles Bingham

Reliable

Sangeeta Ballal

Really enjoy this place! We visited it multiple times during our Alaska visit. The food is great and the Darjeeling tea is amazing. The ambiance is relaxed and the staff is very friendly. We would go back in a heartbeat!

Marty Zoller

Quick service, many options

Meegan Blue

Best gourmet baked goods. I love thePotato and leek soup

Matthew Amundsen

Wasn't there

Shaon Ajith Kumar

Such a innovative little cafe. Loved ghore rice bowls an d desserts and their gun away of sending the order details from the front desk to the kitchen.

Talia Green

This is place is quick, and soooo good! I love that you can order at the counter and it comes out hot and fresh. Their desserts are amazing too. Highly recommend for a yummy, quick meal at a great price.

Clifford Berry

Great rice bowls, soups and sandwiches. Perfect lunch spot next to kaladi and Tidal Waves which makes for an affordable and fun afternoon.

Shawnalee Whitney

Portions are large, but the food could use a bit more seasoning. I can't figure out why, but food is often less tasty at the Northern Lights Y & Y than it is at the Spenard location. My friend had the same comment re: the chai; she thought it was delicious at Spenard, but tasted watery and lackluster here. So, if you're stopping at Titlewave Books or hitting REI, this is an okay stop, but if you've got time and want a better Y & Y experience, go to the Spenard location.

Cyndi Kramer

Seriously, the best. Get the chai. If you eat the bowl there, I am pretty sure they give you more food :)

Stenneth Smith

Ski Pro

Rice bowl $8.99 with 2 good choices. Masala and vindaloo too!

Cassie Carter

It was my first time and I didn't know how the menu worked. But luckily, I had a co worker who has been there and broke it down for me. I had the pork curry over rice and the taste was very good and authentic. If you like to taste your spices like I do, you'll like this place. Its a small and cute place, good for lunch or quick bites. I also had their 7 layer bar and that was delicious. Yes, they have a display case full of sweets for someone with a sweet tooth too.

UGS

Good and simple food. We went there twice and they had the same menu (selecting 3 out of 4 options for curry for vegetarians). Never got a chance to go to their actual restaurant, since it opens post 5:00pm!

itsjustme bruh

The menu is has a very nice varieties for lunch amd snack menu. The service is polite and always nice no matter if it is more or less busy. The food is always at its finest. Don't forget to try Yak amd Yeti while you are over here. Even for a nice tea. Thank you

Adam Marshall

Great daal, chickpea curry, and yam curry for vegetarians. Lots of western style desserts as well

Ian Fox

Really good food. Crowded sometimes...

Nilesh Purohit

Decent restaurant. Have options for vegetarians. Food is not that spicy. It’s a quick bite kind of restaurant like you go there order rice bowl with 1/2/3 curry options. I ordered rice bowl with daal, spinach paneer and yam tikka masala, ordered spicy but still it had plain taste. What I liked there is Darjeeling tea.

Mark West

Taylor Wilson

Delightfully authentic, like getting fast food in India

Cody Priest

Himalayan food! Food was decent. Fairly quick and cheap

Dade Colberg

Caitlin Taylor

Y&Y is THE comfort food. This was my staple study place throughout college-- affordable, filling rice bowls between $9-10. Everyone has an opinion, but the palak paneer, chicken tikka masala, and yam tikka masala are great choices. Free chai tea refill, and their German chocolate brownie is the best. Spacious tables to spread your work on, and a few outlets along the walls. The atmosphere is cozy, and the music is a nice change of pace. It's nice to borrow kaladis wifi next door. Don't forget that this cafe is self-bussing-- take care of your trash and put the bowls in the cleaning bins.

Abhishek Dongre

This place is definitely a gem hidden in Anchorage. Had just a few hours left and wanted some Nepali/Tibetan food so tried this place and was genuinely glad we went there. We went there when the restaurant had only 10 mins to close and they didn't try to hurry us up at all. The staff was friendly and courteous, helped with recommendations and prepared the food quick. We enjoyed the concept they're going for with a new style of serving conventional Nepali/Tibetan food. Definitely hope to see this more in the lower 48 states!

Amit Kakde

Surprisingly delicious food. We stopped here for a quick lunch before flying out as it was close to the airport. The food tasted good and portion size was adequate. A good mixture of spices. Menu is not very diverse but the available options are all good. Don't miss the chai. Tastes very close to authentic masala tea from India. It's cafe style and self service so food is delivered quick.

Henry Heben

It's not the full menu, but it's good quick stop.

Morgaine Finch

A little pretentious and pricey, but the baked goods are tasty and the coffee is adequate.

Jermaine Villareal

Nick Blades

Tasty, great value and service!

Emilka Clark

Love this place! Food is sooo good, atmosphere friendly and quirky, they have environmentaly friendly containers! Recommend with all my heart!

We really enjoyed our experience here. We got the hot chai, shapta sandwich, pork vindaloo sandwich, lentil and spinach soup, and the moreo and chocolate dipped macaroon for dessert. I would recommend all of it again! Quick service, quiet restaurant, clean and polite service.
