Yak N Yeti Ii - Carlisle

I was so excited to discover this place. the woman on the phone was very helpful and when I asked for an appetizer suggestion, she mentioned the cauliflower in Kichererbsen battery, which is an immediate favorit in this house. we also had the vegan joy and the mango coconut cheesecake. everything was wonderful, and my husband has since told friends about his that it is clear that these people take care of eating. I'm so glad it's close.

Love this place!! Excellent and creative food. There are regularly new dishes to choose from as specials just check their Instagram or Facebook for the latest. Top shelf service. You won’t go wrong here. Vegan items are all labeled but even those that aren’t you can always inquire if they are able to accommodate if possible they will!! They are extremely vegan friendly!

Whether you choose the excellent buffet (always plenty of clearly marked vegan choices) or order from the menu, you will be pleased. Try the Wai Wai app for something different...if you like things hot and spicy! The pharshi (pumpkin with Nepalese spices) is delicious and unique. Just save room for the home made vegan cheese cake!

I am a regular customer here. Justine and her brother run a very nice restaurant. They are both very friendly and take the time to talk to everyone. They know their regular customers by name. Their other waitstaff employee is a pleasant person. Yak Yeti 's buffet is extremely good, as are their vegan menu items. The food, whether on the buffet or off the menu, is freshly-prepared and well-presented. The mo-mo platter with vegan dumplings is awesome! About half the buffet dishes are vegan and can be served over rice. While the rice is tasty, I 'm not thrilled about having rice everytime time I go there. I 'd prefer whole wheat chapathi or roti as a second grain option on the buffet. How about serving amaranth, millet, or quinoa to mix it up? Other reviewers have raved about the vegan cheeze cake. I have not tried it yet and look forward to it! Consider making a vegan version of kheer. Staff do not know how to cook okra. They don 't cook it long enough, and the result is a slimy and tasteless vegetable. I 've tried to discuss this matter with them and encouraged them to cook their okra until it is completely cooked. Okra that is done is not slimy. To date, they have not taken my friendly advice. This is my only disappointment throughout my entire experience at this restaurant. Yak Yeti II has booths, tables, as well as traditional low tables with cushions. If you sit at the low tables, take your shoes off before entering that seating area. Also, this restaurant is BYOB. If you go there for lunch, they have a frequent flier card where you can get a free buffet lunch after about five or six buffet purchases.

Our friends who live in Carlisle brought us to lunch at their favorite spot, and it’s easy to see why they love it so much. We wish we had a spot this good and unique at home! Lunch buffet was exemplary; many clearly labeled vegan options, flavorful, fresh, and clean. But as outstanding as the meal was...you guys, the vegan cheesecake. A MUST have. Blew our minds. Two flavors (of course we had both strawberry cardamom and blueberry lemon blueberry even had a GF crust), cashew based, agave sweetened, made in house by the lovely sister of the owners, who was also our generous hostess. Beautiful ambiance (gorgeous hand painted decor), excellent service, memorable food. Wish we lived closer; we’d be there every other day!
