Carryout through their app. I placed my order and when I arrived it was ready. I got my favorite, saag paneer that came with basmati rice. I also opted for some vegetable pakora. That was accompanied by four different sauces/chutneys for dipping. Of course I had to get an order of naan to go with. Everything was hot and delicious. read more

Door dashed this for comfort food this weekend! I was curious about this edamame salad and it's done nicely with Indian spices. I am Indian and normally have cucumbers and tomato salad on the side but this was a nice twist! 10/10 cheesy garlic naan. Holyyy!!! Kheer for dessert was heavy and could be a little more flavor but still hit the spot. I like that the lamb korma has chunks of lamb, rice was okay I would def get some naan on the side for it. I only recommend bawarchi on Fort Collins for Indian food to my friends - but this was pretty damn good. read more

Yak and Yeti Restaurant and Brewpub - Indian Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

I loved the cute, unique atmosphere and decor here. We sat inside and there was a lot to look at! The chicken curry, naan, and mango lassi were all good and came out pretty quickly read more

We enjoy the lunch buffet. It is pricey. The seating is uncomfortable but it could be the old building. I love the saag paneer, samosas, and condiments from the buffet. The chicken tikka masala is also pretty good. The service is good enough. The bathrooms were very nice and clean. read more

Easily the best saag paneer of our lives - so rich with ghee and spices. Everything was tried here was amazing, from the MoMos with soft sticky dough enclosing a textural variety of chopper veggies to the papadums platter with four delicious dips. The chai was warm, filling, and fragrant. We came for a random lunch at 4:00 pm and the place was empty; a colorful historic building that feels like a Nepal teahouse and ski lodge. We would definitely return if in the area. read more

Absolute best Indian food around! Great vibes, service was quick and easy. Especially well Priced as well, love it. read more

Great food and some nice beers as well we enjoyed this place and would definitely go back

I had lunch here today with 2 friends. It was my second time eating here. I love Indian Food and the aroma entering the restaurant makes my mouth water. We chose the buffet lunch which is well-done & bountiful. The disappointment was that we didn't get our basket of Naan until the end of the meal. The bread here is really well-done therefore one of the reasons we like to come here. Not receiving it just about ruined our meal. We got to Yak & Yeti around 11:30. The place was deserted. It filled up quickly after 12. There was a nice selection of dishes on the buffet and all was hot & fresh. Our server was ok; not great but always smiling read more

Yak and Yeti never disappoints. We always have the buffet & everything is delicious. Always fresh & hot. The flavors are fabulous. Yak and Yeti has been my favorite place for years!! read more

Love this place so much! Been coming for years and never disappoints. Favorite order is the Tandoori chicken wings

Definitely our go to Indian food! They do have the buffet option but we usually order straight from the menu because we have our favorite go to orders! The sweet potato masala is pairs well together with the creaminess of the potato and the sauce. The tandoori chicken wings take 15 mins longer to cook than the other foods but it's definitely worth it! We always wait for it hahaha! Any naan flavor you choose will be a good choice because they are all good. My husband says he enjoys their beer collection and they have good beer! Service is always so wonderful and very attentive! Never had a bad experience here. Whether we dine in or take out - always great service. Environment is nice and love how it feels homey with the different rooms inside! read more

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here tonight. We failed to make a reservation but were able to be seated quickly and easily thankfully! So many kind and helpful servers... even making our 21 month old feel like a special king! Deciding we wanted to try a variety of menu items since it was our first time here, we opted for the buffet. Not being a buffet person I was a tad hesitant but I shouldn't have been. Food was well protected from people breathing on it- and it was so tasty! Loved the vegetarian options but the lamb dish was probably my favorite- that as well as the multiple choices of desserts Our room was great for a larger group - nice and quiet with wonderful decorations. Ambiance perfect! read more

Yak and Yeti has been on my bookmark list for far longer than I'd like to admit! I was finally able to come with some friends and both our little ones. My little one has always been a chicken tikka masala and saag fan like her parents so I wasn't surprised when she devoured it! She also really enjoyed my mango lassi. The other little one is a bit picker so his parents weren't for sure what he'd eat... he downed the chicken tikka masala! Service was great, portions were good, and we really enjoyed their nice outdoor patio on a nice fall evening! read more

Food was great! Servers very attentive. Loved sitting outside! First time there and definitely will be back.

Adorable building! Such a sight. Good was delicious and prepped quickly. Appreciated the variety of beer options.

Wonderful flavored foods with a great depth of spice. Enjoyed our dinner. Great atmosphere. Lovely waiter. I highly recommend. read more

Food is better than average. Service just okay. I feel they could use a good hospitality consultant to help their staff look after customers better. Things like asking how the meal is, inquiring whether the order was correct, refilling water glasses... the basics. Fun ambiance in the old house! Eat upstairs! read more

Food and service was great. The buffet was an excellent value and everything tasted great. Our other menu items hit the spot and the food came out rather quickly. read more

It's both a dine in and a buffet experience depending on what you select. We did the dine in experience that way our food arrives hot instead of sitting out for a while. The tiki masala was probably my favorite of the dishes that we had ordered. It's not spicy but has enough flavor. The chicken was tender and easy to chew on. It's tastes delicious on top of rice or if you decide to dip it with the garlic naan. The saag paneer was also a solid selection. It does not have meat in it so great for non-meat eaters. The vindaloo was okay. The lamb was still very chewy so I would skip personally skip it or order with a different protein selection. Otherwise, service was friendly. There's an upstairs so lots of seats. The buffet area is located downstairs so if you happen to sit upstairs, you will have to do a little bit of up and down walking. read more

Went here for lunch and got the soybean pickle, papdi, and vegetable samosa. Was pretty satisfied but not necessarily wow-ed with the vegetable samosa and soybean pickle, but the amazing flavor and texture of the papdi totally blew them both out of the water! Delicious with a some crispy bits mixed in that made the mouthfeel incredible. read more

I have been a frequenter of Yak and Yeti for many years now. I have been to multiple locations of theirs (my favorite was when they were in Westminster where the Tamale Kitchen is now). I think that if you have never been to Yak and Yeti and are looking for a good Indian/Nepalese buffet, look no further. This IS the place. The buffet as a lot of good selections and they have a great drinks menu. That being said, I now feel like I need to review this place as someone who has seen it ebb and flow over the years. I think that this location is obviously the nicest interior and exterior as the other locations are pretty much just buildings with some stuff on the walls and really good food. Though, I don't think that really changes the quality of food I just thought it should be known that if you are curious about the difference of locations, that is going to be a big one. I think this particular location has the widest beer selection as well but that could be false now. It used to be that way years ago though. I will say that every time I have been to Yak and Yeti I get the buffet. I have never even looked at a menu. You should know that if you have never been that they will expect you to get the buffet because everyone does. I have seen the wait staff get kind of confused when someone does ask for a menu but they will obviously abide and not be rude about it. The buffet is king though and why people go. So, I have mentioned that the food is great and it is. Four stars alone for the food. But other things are being taken into consideration with this review and I will be the one that will say it if no one else will.... Yak and Yeti is resting on its laurels. The food is great but never really changes. If it does change it is that the preparation of the already known dishes changes slightly. The flavors are always on point but the flavors are the same level of depth as they have always been. Yak and Yeti has become so stable that if you go you better find something to become your usual because that is what you will always get. Maybe they are hiding some stuff on the menu that excels from what I am stating but I don't think so. The locations all have this slightly deteriorated look that shows that they could operate at the same level as they do now and never be worried about it, and from what I know of their fan base. That is true. Their servers just exist to grab drink orders but they also don't have a normal wait staff set up. It is like a group of people are your wait staff and you can pretty much just grab anyone to get you anything. If you haven't been before this can probably be confusing but they EXPECT that you have been before or are with someone that has been because that is how this place runs. The food is great but if you don't "get" what makes Yak and Yeti good the first time you go they won't wow you the second time so you probably don't need to go back. I can tell you though that I will go back and enjoy Yak and Yeti for years to come because their food is now a source of comfort. Maybe that will be you and maybe that won't be. read more

Great food and the service was great as well!! The ambiance was nice and they were willing to let us change tables when asked.

Great Indian and Nepalese cuisine, ate in a private room, but beer was cold, food was hot and spicy, great apps

After hearing about how great this place was, we decided to make the drive out to Arvada to try it! We already knew we were going to love their beer as this is this restaurant was where Spice Trade Brewing Co was born out of. It is located in the Olde Towne Arvada and is in the "Eli Allen House" which used to be a post office and the home of a postmaster, Eli Allen back in the day! Its location and building definitely stands out on the streets. Unfortunately there is major construction going on the streets, it can be hard to get in to. The staff were super friendly and we were seated right away! We decided to try their Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Rogan Josh. Their tikka masala was spot on! It was the perfect balance of creamy and tomato-y. The chicken was super tender and not at all dry! It is definitely comparable to other Tikka Masala I have tried especially to Haveli's in Littleton. Chicken Rogan Josh is a dish we have never tried before but overall, I loved the spice aroma it had. It is a gravy style curry so it is definitely not as thick as the tikka masala but still very enjoyable with naan especially their garlic and cheese one! (warning --- it is super garlicky) read more

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! read more

Stopped by Yak and Yeti for dinner with some friends, and overall it was a good experience! It's always nice when you can find a new spot with South Asian food, and Yak and Yeti doesn't disappoint. You'll find the standard fare you expect from a normal Indian Restaurant, as well as some newer fusion type items as well. The fact that the building was definitely once a house, and still retains the structure of having individual rooms makes it quite a unique dining experience. Depending on the day, you may find that the restaurant is super packed, and as of late 2021, there's still so much construction going on in this area that it can be tough to find parking at the actual restaurant. A few folks in our party had to park in the neighboring street, but it's a short walk. The Brewpub side of Yak and Yeti was a welcome surprise -- I've never had an Indian themed Stout, and it definitely added to the experience! Overall, I'd recommend checking out Yak and Yeti in Olde Town Arvada! read more

Love Yak and yeti! They have a good variety of northern India and Tibetan cuisine. I love how consistent it is. Bonus is they brew their own beer and chai! You can buy these at least at the Ralston spot. Love the honey chicken, masala and chili paneer. Pro-tip: parking lot is small, consider ride sharing! You can park next door after 5 or 6pm I believe. read more

I always order the Sweet Potato Tikka Masala with Garlic Naan and Samosas to start. The food has always been consistent, fresh and great tasting. read more

We have been many times. Generally we go with friends who live nearby. This visit was not all that bad but similar he'd from previous experiences. We came in a Saturday afternoon around 2pm. Without consulting the menu, we easily decided on the buffet. Food seemed fresh and well stocked. The selection was good. Chicken in the tikka masala was dry as a bone. The chili shrimp was good. The veg curry was ok but loaded with okra and eggplant. Two of my least favorite veggies beside broccoli. Lots of canned fruits and some low grade salad items. The pickled spicy onions were amazing. Samosas we're good. Overall just so so. Then the bill arrived. $60 for two buffets and a chai. Wow. Excruciatingly expensive for what we got. Next time I will just order off the menu. read more

We had a lovely dinner at Yak and Yeti. We made a reservation for 2 online and had our own little private room upstairs. The decoration and ambiance was wonderful and really added to the experience. We were well taken care of - servers were prompt and checked in on us the perfect amount. Since it was our first time here, we opted for the buffet so we could try out a variety of what they offer. I piled my plate high with a little of everything and it was all very tasty! They had great options for just about everyone. Big fan of the lamb, masala, naan, samosas, and the coconut soup! My second and final serving from the buffet was for dessert. They had a variety of fruits and a couple dips - I loved the mango custard. The highlight was the carrot pudding SO good. But also the donuts were perfect, not too sweet somehow. The jalapeño beer was refreshing, light and not spicy. The chai milk stout was so so good - but filling after a huge meal! They also have a great selection of cocktails and some wines if beer is not your thing! We arrived about an hour and a half before close, they do start clean up 30 minutes before close - but they are sure to let you know when the buffet will be taken down so you can go scoop up some last minute treats. I left so so so full and very happy. I'll be back! read more

Well, we've been customers for over a decade at this Y &Y. Never had a complaint eat-in or -take-out. Alas... We did a large for us take-out order recently and both the lamb and chicken biryani were very over-cooked. Honestly, the lamb was like trying to eat rubber. Everything else was great as usual but in so far as prices have gone up recently we were some disappointed. read more

- chai was warm and good - samosa was delicious - chicken curry was okay. Personally think it's too sweet and not tender enough - highly recommend the lamb masala with garlic naan Will definitely come Back and bring friends. This place is unique and has many beers. read more

Authentic and delicious! If you're looking for a very cool atmosphere, come here! The location in downtown Arvada is inside a historic old house with really unique architecture and designs. They provide seating in the bar, in private dining areas, on the patio, and upstairs with book nooks attached to your booth. They have a wide variety of menu items but they also have a buffet for lunch and for dinner. The buffet is $25. Tonight I ordered from the menu because I wanted leftovers. I started with a beer called Little Umbrella which is a passion fruit mango wheat light beer. Fruity, slightly hoppy, and delicious! In the past I've also tried the Jalapeño Lena which is a Pilsner with jalapeño and is spicy! For dinner I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and jalapeño garlic cheese naan. The fresh garlic on the naan was so fragrant and delicious! The chicken was extremely tender and I could easily cut it with just my fork. It came with plenty of sauce which I like since I can pour it over the rice that automatically comes with the meal. You get the option of spice level (mild, medium, hot). I got medium and it was a true medium. Just enough spice but not too spicy. The service here was fantastic and my waiter was friendly and attentive (Bihan). I have sat in every area in this restaurant and they are all equally as good. The restaurant appeared clean and it was quiet enough to enjoy a conversation. The portions are enough for 2 people to share, so I had leftovers to take home. Great place! Delicious food and drink! read more

I am not going to lie. I have been to like maybe 5 different Indian food restaurants, so I really am no expert. But this has been my go to for years and years and is my favorite spot. In fact my whole family loves it and we come probably once a month, if not more. I love their curry fries, samosas and the Vindaloo. The family will always get the tikka masala or makhani. I think I honestly have eaten close to everything on this menu. It never disappoints, well like they are humans making the food so like maybe one time I got a curry that was lil watery and not as good as we usually get it. But I was like literally one out of 200 orders at this point. And I think it was even during or after the pandemic so like they get a hard pass on that. If you come for a lunch here you should definitely do the buffet. For the price you can seriously try a lot of the menu. It also seems to change a bit from time to time which I think is great. It's always fresh and the service is good. The beers are also great, I like the something giant its got hibiscus in it it's so good. Then the jalapeno pilsner is wild good. Like drinking spicy beer and eating spicy vindaloo on a cold winter day is grand. read more

The food was excellent. We had buffet. Service was very good. And we sat and talked for a couple of hours and we were welcome to do so!

Ya'll, when I say this is the BEST Indian food I've ever had.... I've had takeout and dine in, and their food is always spot on. When you dine in, service is great, someone is always checking on you making sure you have everything you need, and if you want anything more. The restaurant itself is very homey and cozy feeling. This is my go to for Indian food any night of the week, or a date night. read more

I cannot rave enough about this wonderful restaurant. The food was delicious, even as leftovers. Our waiter made sure we had everything we needed and was pleasant. We were able to have a conversation and laugh without feeling like others could hear us or that we were disrupting their conversation. Too many restaurants make it so hard to hear people at your table. That's not an issue here. If you're dining with kiddos, be sure to get the table in the turret. They will love it. We will be back every single time we come to Denver!!! read more
