5 stars as always. This place has friendly service, great seating options, and superb flavors. I would bathe in their tikka sauce! Their naan bread basket is a must. I always order a side of tikka sauce to take home and use for my own veggie tikka. Absolutely amazing food and vegetarian options.
Get takeout here frequently!! Always ready on time and the food is so amazing every single time.
Whenever I roadtrip near the Davis area, Yeti is one of my favorite places for a filling dinner. I have been coming here for years, and I have enjoyed their rice dishes, curries, and momos. This time, I went with the lamb vindaloo and shared some veggie momos with the table. I recommend getting entrees "thali style" which will add rice, naan, curry, dall, and a sweet rice dessert. At only $5 extra, this is an excellent deal and close to what some big city restaurants charge for more than once piece of naan... Service has consistently been welcoming over the years and they keep the restaurant warm and cozy in the winter, but not too hot to enjoy the warm curry.
Yummy yummy yummy! I got the chicken tikka masala thali and my husband got the mis mas vegetables thali dish. Outstanding! Very flavorful and filling. I was able to substitute my rice for extra naan. And I still had a huge portion of left over! I plan to come back when I visit aga
When around the UC Davis area and we feel like Indian Food, Yeti is the spot! The place is a tad small, but they do have outdoor seating as well. The service is as expected. We came on a busy day, and there was only one person taking orders, so it did take some time to take our orders and take payment. But not a reason to not come here haha. Take note, the entrees can be Ala Carte, or "Nepalese Thali Style". If you're hungry and want a Nepalese twist, get your entree Nepalese Thali Style. It includes Nepalese pickles, vegetable curry of the day, lentil soup, dessert and naan. We ordered the Saag Paneer and Chicken Tikka Masala. Now, we've had these dishes at other Indian restaurants, but for some reason, these dishes at Yeti are elevated! They taste much better here haha. We also got the Nepalese Samosa, and they are an excellent start to any meal here. When in the area, definitely try this place out!
My friend and I came here on a Thursday afternoon; while there were many tables around us, the place was not too packed. My friend and I both ordered lunch specials. I ordered lamb tikka masala curry & my friend ordered chicken tikka masala curry. Our lunch specials came with basmati rice, dal, a samosa, naan bread, vegetable curry, and a salad. For its price point, the food was plentiful. The tikka masalas both had a good amount of sweetness, and the samosa was one of my favorites. The naan bread was nicely sliced, and there was a good ratio of curry to basmati rice and vice versa. I'm looking forward to visiting this place the next time I come to Davis! I'm hoping to try a Mango Lassi next time; we decided we would order one if the food didn't seem filling, but we were more than full and had enough for leftovers.
My best friend recommended this restaurant for lunch. The minute we got in. We were welcomed, sitting right away. It wasn't busy. The inside of the restaurant ambiance was very traditional, the artwork in the inside was beautiful. She ordered palak paneer and chicken momo! Delish! I've ordered somosa, spicy butter chicken, garlic basil naan, and garlic cilantro naan! It was on point! The veggie somosa came right away! It was crispy, soft and hot on the inside. Then my spicy butter chicken came through, of course I had to mix it with the somosa. OMG!! Chefs kiss! The texture of the outer somoas mixing with the curry on the inside mixed with the spicy butter chicken was phenomal mixture! Of course, I went straight with the garlic cilantro naan, it melt in my mouth. The garlic basil naan with the spicy butter chicken highly recommended! For Indian and Nepal food lovers, come here!
Came on a Friday for dinner in the summer, and it was awesome. I regret finding this place so late in my stay here in Davis, and I will find another time to return before I leave. Yeti was one of those spots I walked past until someone I trusted recommended it to me. All four curries we got were hits, and the chicken and the lamb were tender and juicy. Get the nann, because the rice won't be enough. But don't trust my word for it, go check it out for yourself!
This place has amazing decor, great vibes, and great food! Everything we've tried has been done beautifully and made to order. The flavors are sharp, bold, and have a great balance with the dip dips
