Yeti offers great food in a cozy setting tucked in a small "village" of shops near Glen Ellen. There's plenty of parking in the adjoining lot for the shops, as well as ample street parking. As soon as you open the door, you're greeted with all the wonderful spices used to prepare the food. Since it isn't listed on the menu, you can BYO for a corkage of just $15 per 750ml, probably one of the cheapest in the county. We had a variety of dishes and overall the food was well prepared and tasty, though we all favored some dishes over others. The samosas were excellent - the filling was delicious and pairing it with the two chutneys just elevated it. The only minor complaint is that the samosa wrapper was quite thick and pretty hard/crunchy in places - I think it would be better if the seams were rolled thinner so when they joined up, they wouldn't be too thick. The momos were just okay - I probably wouldn't order those again. The meat filling was tasty, but the momo wrappers were so soggy from steaming that they immediately fell apart. There was also no sauce whereas I'm used to momos being served with a spicy tomato chutney. We ordered multiple main dishes and I won't go into every single one, but each was tasty. The curries were flavorful with a perfect balance of spice and their buttered naan was to die for! Overall, we had a great dinner! Service was wonderful and we'll definitely be back to try more items off the very large menu :)

I was so hungry and walked away satisfied after a meal of vegetarian momos, a vegetarian curry, naan, and chai. The setting is beautiful, and the service was unhurried. The momos were good--there were six, which is a good amount to share with one other person. They are verdant and come with two flavorful sauces. The curry was flavorful with spices, not too oily, and vegetables not overcooked. I sopped up every bit of remaining sauce with the naan. I was pleasantly surprised that there was a free refill on the chai.

Chicken tikka, rice, and bread. Almost $40! Chicken Tika was mostly sauce, with six cubes of chicken. Gobbled most of it up in 15 minutes. Feels a little expensive these days. They have definitely cut back on meat portions. Gotta save food costs, never mind value. People will forget over time how much more they used to get. I just looked back at the pictures in here and you can see the difference actually over years.

My previous review was in January 2010. Was pleased then. 14 years later my meal was every bit as tasty and satisfying. Came with family tonight and had 7 different dishes to share. Everything made us all happy. Prices are very reasonable. Probably the best value meal in Glen Ellen. If you love Indian food , you will love this place.

I've never had Nepalese food before but I am a huge fan of Indian food in general. Sadly, my little town of Paso Robles does not have any Indian food and I'm told there is nothing really decent in the surrounding areas. I often use my travel as opportunity to eat the things I miss (decent Chinese, Japanese and Indian, to name just a few). After a great tasting at Schermeister next door, we couldn't help but to smell the delicious aromas coming from around the corner. We were pretty hungry as it was late lunch time. We ordered the Yeti Special Chicken (the "mint" sauce was super subtle but delicious), the prawn biryani, the chicken curry and the garlic naan. If I had access to a fridge and microwave at the my airBnb, I probably would have ordered more. Everything was excellent, and just a little different from your typical Indian food. For example, the biryani had a kind of gravy on it that I've never had before. The naan was the most beautiful one I've ever had. We love Glen Ellen and prefer to stay there when in Napa/Sonoma. I will absolutely make a point of going to Yeti every single time I'm in the area. Absolutely fantastic!

Loved this restaurant in Glen Ellen. The food was exceptional. We ordered the Groban lamb curry, garlic cilantro naan, and prawn biriyani. All were so good. Naan was the best we've ever had. Nice service. Quaint atmosphere. Highly recommend.

The Yeti Restaurant is a restaurant in The Mill. I adore the location. The food is delicious. Our favorite dish was the chicken tikka mesala. We tried both the garlic naan and honey butter naan. The service was treat. We were treated like family. The noise level was medium. We webt for dinner and the restaurant filled up quickly. If you want to take a pretty drive and enjoy a delicious authentic dinner, Yeti Restaurant is worth it.

Back at the Yeti today. They still have their outdoor seating available and it was lovely sitting outside to enjoy a meal. We got the olive nan- excellent. Samosas- excellent. Saag Ghosht- excellent. Okra dish- very good. Rice- uncooked. When we notified our server that our 2 orders of rice were undercooked, she didn't seem to believe us. She seemed to give me the sense that they couldn't/ wouldn't do anything about it and she just left. A little bit later she came back with more rice. But at that point our meals were cold. We never received an apology and they seemed to ignore our table for the rest of the meal. So overall, the food is delicious, but the service levels are subpar at best.

The most outstanding food. First, at the recommendation of our server, we tried the Momo. Juicy and full of flavor. For dinner, we had tandoori salmon, curried lamb shank, garlic naan, an okra dish, and rice. Everything was amazing. My favorite was the momo and salmon. My partner's was the momo and lamb. We sat outside under beautiful green trees. The service was perfect. Thank you for an exceptional anniversary dinner.

My girlfriend and I are visiting Sonoma for the weekend so we decided to stop by here for dinner last night. When we arrived , we were promptly seated - we opted for outdoor seating. There were a decent amount of people there but still many tables available indoors and outdoors. For our meal we ordered an order of veggie momo , the saag paneer, the Chana pine, an olive basil Naan , and some rice. We also shared a Mango Lassi The momos we got were very solid - while the wrapping was a little flimsy , the interior was fresh and seasoned well. The tamarind and mint chutney were a nice addition as well. The olive and basil Naan was a highlight - it was fluffy and chewy and the topping was almost like pesto(?) It was a very unique flavor that worked really well with the two curries. Speaking of the curries - the saag paneer was definitely a solid choice and a must get. The greens they use were earthy and savory and the curry itself was perfect. My only complaint is that the the paneer to curry ratio was not great... we had maybe six pieces of paneer in our curry The chana was unfortunately a low light for me. The curry lacked a sort of oomph in flavor and the worst part was chickpeas didn't seem cooked through - they were brittle and grainy. Service was friendly , and the ambiance was quite nice (the Jack London Village marketplace is very cool - would visit again) While our overall experience was good , I think there was still something missing (no wow factor). With that being said, if you're looking for some quality Nepali/ Indian food in Napa you can't go wrong visiting here. 3.33/5

Who knew wine country and cuisine from the Southern Asia region could go so well together? Tucked away in the woods and vineyards that make up Glen Ellen, California resides a quaint complex called the Jack London Village that houses business restaurants, shops and wine tasting rooms situated over a serene creek, and one of those businesses is Yeti Restaurant, which combines the flavors and cuisine of India and Nepal into one destination for lovers of both exotic cuisine and affordably priced meals. What brought a friend and I here on a recent weekend afternoon was we wanted to enjoy a quick lunch after a wine tasting at a nearby winery in Glen Ellen. When searching for places to dine for lunch nearby there aren't many options around so my friend suggested Yeti Restaurant after one of her friends said they used to come here multiple times as they loved it so much, and after enjoying our shared lunchtime meal, we could easily see why. Arriving without reservations, we had the option of sitting outside on their patio that overlooks the creek, and inside with their open-kitchen and bar overlooking their patio. We opted to sit inside as it was a bit chilly outside and with the smells from the kitchen emanating throughout, it made for the perfect setting. The menu at Yeti Restaurant is separated into categories including Appetizers, Soup, Salad, Seafood Delicacies, Exquisite Chicken Curries, Fragrant Lamb Curries, Naan, Accompaniments, and Beverages. With names like that you can't go wrong with what you choose from their menu. We decided to split our meal and so we ordered from their Appetizer menu their Samosas, which were two homemade triangular pastries filled with potatoes and green peas lightly spiced with garlic ginger and cumin, and served with a red cabbage and carrot garnish. For our entrée, we decided to split a serving of their Chicken Curry which is cooked with tomatoes, onions, chili, mustard seeds and fresh curry leaves. To go with our meal we ordered a side of steamed rice and an order of their Olive Basil Naan, which is their traditional leavened bread baked to order in a tandoor. The samosas came out first and they were two perfectly deep-fried triangles that were piping hot upon being cut open with a fork and knife which was tempered once we added their sweet tamarind sauce and tangy mint chutney sauce. Then our entree, rice and bread were all brought out at once with everything tasting perfectly when combined together. The highlight of our meal had to have been their Naan bread, as we had originally assumed it would be sliced Naan bread, but it was more like its own pizza bread, ready to be sliced on its own and when paired with the extra curry sauce from our entrée, it tasted so authentic thanks to the flavor and preparation techniques. Our chicken curry was a solid dish when paired with basmati rice served its goal in filling our bellies. It was such a solid meal with two plus courses that our final bill was a little over 34 dollars before gratuity was added in, which was more than reasonable. Knowing that Yeti Restaurant is here ready to satiate the appetites of locals and out-of-towners alike, especially when spending a day tasting wine at the many wineries and tasting rooms nearby, is like a breath of fresh air. We could have gone to your run of the mill local tavern that would serve traditional American fare but why not experience something unique in wine country and at Yeti Restaurant you can't get any more unique. By using fresh ingredients from local farms Yeti Restaurant is bringing their own unique spin to wine country, and being recognized by the Michelin Guide in the past certainly shows you something. With a second larger location in Santa Rosa the team at Yeti Restaurant continues to grow, and I for one, cannot wait to see where they grow to next!

Luckily the staff was accommodating and we were still able to get a table without waiting. Though it was a rainy day, so not a lot of people out and about in wine country. The restaurant wasn't very busy. I honestly did not try much of the food, but the wine was good and decently priced. I believe their corkage is $15 per bottle, so we did think about bringing some of the wine we bought prior. Turns out we didn't need to since their wine list offered some pretty good reds around $50 a bottle. Service was great! We had a big party so you know how that can go. Some unorganization is normally to be had. Some chaos happens when there's a big part of adults and kids. Didn't phase the staff and all. Since we were sharing, we managed to figure out what we wanted and how many dishes we needed to feed everyone. Great spot for Indian cuisine if you're wine tasting in Sonoma County.

Cozy and comfy atmosphere serving up delicious Nepalese cuisine. The Momo's came out streaming hot. The vegetables still had a slight crunch to them. A great appetizer to be sure. We had BAINGAN BHARTA and SAAG GOSHT. Both were rich with spices and delicate texture. A perfect pair with hot fresh naan (cooked to order). The Chicken Biriyani was moist and tender. I'm used to Biriyani being fluffier with less sauce, but this was still very enjoyable. Would absolutely return when next in Glen Ellen.
