Very tasteful food, large portions and the staff are super friendly. This is definitely a spot to stop and have food at if you’re in ross on wye. They have a large selection of vegetarian food also a large selection of starters and a good selection of drinks. Highly recommended
After struggling to find an open restaurant late on a Sunday night, we stumbled upon this hidden gem of a Nepalese restaurant. We started with the chilli garlic prawns and vegetable momos, followed by a mushroom curry for the main course. Every dish was bursting with flavor—the prawns, loaded with ginger and garlic, were a standout! It was my first time trying Nepalese cuisine, but it certainly won’t be my last. The service was impeccable. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. While the atmosphere is intimate and cozy, it adds to the charm, making it feel warm and inviting. If you're looking to explore new flavors, I highly recommend giving this place a try!
Visiting Yaks & Yetis upon impulse, passing the restaurant whilst heading for a fish supper, we were the second customers on opening. Our hosts were extremely polite, advising us on menu choices, and sundries selection. The spiced chicken liver proved an excellent first course and my partner enjoyed her aloo chops. We both ordered boiled rice cooked to perfection, and me Alu Ra Chana went down very well. The Khursani (Chilli) Beef for my partner was tasty and satisfying, and not too spicy, as requested. Dessert came, beautifully presented and satisfying, banana in syrup, with cream and ice cream, and a fabulous pavlova with mixed fruit. We both enjoyed a lovely meal and will return to try more Nepalese food in the future.
Nice food, very tasty, I personally would have liked a slightly larger portion, but that's just me. Maybe the chutney pots could be a little bigger too. The staff were amazing, very friendly and efficient. I would recommend this place.
Absolutely brilliant Lots of choice on the menu and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and tasted so fresh, you can tell everything was homemade and there was no processed ingredients. We went for the vegetable dumplings and chicken samosa’s in which I could’ve eaten 4 plates of the stuff it tasted that good. Noodles and Himalayan stew with chicken and egg fried rice for mains. Staff were so friendly and helpful, lovely place. Would be dining there every weekend if we lived there!
