Yeti Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Full of flavour, not crazy spicy authentic food."
• "Amazing flavours in all of the food, great choices on the menu, plentiful portion sizes."
• "Good quality authentic Indian food. Less salt than most. Dishes advertised as spicy aren't spicy though."
• "Every dish we tried was 10/10 - from the home made chutneys, the momo, two out outstanding curries, even the pilau rice and the peshwari naan were done to perfection."
• "The food is delicious, authentic and rich with flavour."
• "The food was fantastic,cooked to perfection."
• "The food is out of this world. The Patan Masu, lamb momo and peshwari nan are incredible and my personal favourite."

Cons:

• "I am sick and tired of restaurants having nice food when it’s dine in but terrible food when it’s delivery."
• "The lamb biryani was too salty and the “Rhin jim duck” didn’t taste or look like duck at all."
• "Sadly, delivery food usually tastes better than in the restaurant itself for some reason."
• "Some starters (Sandeko Chicken and Lamb Sekuwa) were mind-blowingly hot and spicy yet main course Nepalese specialities were quite bland and lacking flavour."
• "Flavourless dry meat and a bit too runny/greasy."
• "We were disappointed that the special, popular dishes (Khasi Jhol and Timur Chicken) were really plain; not as described on the menu."
• "The chicken was dry, all the other meats were chewy, dry and tough."

Service

Pros:

• "The vibe here is friendly, informal dining with the emphasis on flavour and value for money."
• "Courteous staff, excellent service, delicious food and good-sized portions."
• "Antony was especially helpful - he even moved us to a more intimately placed table without us having to ask!"
• "The staff were friendly, entertaining, attentive and easy to talk to."
• "The service was excellent and we had the manager come to our table not once but twice to check on us."
• "The staff were amongst the most polite and amazing people ever and the service could not be better."
• "The service was perfect, all the stuff was really kind and professional."

Cons:

• "We were asked to pay before we had finished these and at this point I explained we never asked for the bill."
• "Service was a bit slow on the Friday evening we visited but they were busy."
• "Really disappointed after reading such good reviews. Rice was forgotten with delivery."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "The vibe here is friendly, informal dining with the emphasis on flavour and value for money."
• "Slightly more expensive than nearby restaurants but the professional cook and the traditional style of having the meat served on fire at your table worth every penny."

Cons:

• "The only negative: the restaurant is expensive."
• "It’s a bit pricey, but a good choice for those special occasions."
• "The price is too high for one dish!!"
• "Very meat heavy. when I visited Nepal, I found most food was vegetarian. It's an OK curry house, but it's just like all the rest."
• "Waste of money. The interesting thing is we placed order 5 different types of curries but all the items test was same."
• "For the owners - please consider a fair tipping system, I was told card based tips don’t go to staff, only cash tips do."
• "My order never got delivered, called the restaurant. Told me call deliveroo Deliveroo re ordered the food The restaurant manager told me that they won't be delivering the food coz apparently they are not getting paid Manager was very rude Even told me not to order from deliveroo Instead order directly from them"
