We had dinner (steak/ shrimp, duck, steak) with wasabi potatoes (just ok), stir fry veggies (one dish had what looked like frozen veggie mix?) - steaks were cooked exactly to our liking, shrimps were small, - desserts were sorbet, mango pie and pineapple cake with pineapple cake being the big winner! This restaurant would be a decent choice for someone not wanting to leave the park to eat.
Pros:
better drink choices (pina colada)Cons:

Sept. 24th lunchtime - no reservations - only waited about 40minutes to get a table. Sat upstairs which was a lot quieter than downstairs - highly suggest that. Malaysian Seafood Curry out of this world - pleanty of seafood more than enough rice. Korean BBQ ribs as tender as could be - did not care for the Kimchi slaw. Kobe Burger 1/2 eaten - half taken with. Will definitely go back in future visits

First time eating here and we were very excited. We've always heard great things. It was very crowded due to the evening hours at AK. We were a party of 8 so we were seated at 2 tables. That was fine but we were stuffed in the corner of the upstairs enclosed patio. It was warm without any moving air. Our meals were good but nothing special and not any better than the takeout window. We had honey chicken, chicken lo mein, teriyaki kabobs, tempura shrimp and the Ahi salad. Again, no real complaints other than an abundant amount of carrots in everything! The main complaint is that our server mislead us on the tip. 18% gratuity is added to parties of 6 or more. We were not shown a receipt with broken down charges. I asked if the tip was included and he said "I don't believe in that" so we tipped an additional 20%. I thought it seemed a little pricey for what we got so I checked with our concierge, had to get connected to restaurant, etc. and learned that he did end up with a nice $80 tip but all was resolved nicely. I've never had that happen at Disney. We'll be sticking with Kona for our Asian inspired meals!

We visited in April 2016 for lunch. We had a reservation and did not wait long to be seated. My husband and I decided to share a few appetizers and we were not disappointed! We had the dragon roll; ahi tuna nachos; and thai chili wings. All were delicious! I ordered the Yak Attack..a frozen drink which was also delicious. The food came quickly and we were able to relax and enjoy it. The only negative we had, and this was a situational negative, there was a large group dining in the same room and they were obviously there for a long time. The adults in the group were not paying any attention to the children in the party. They were jumping around and wrestling. So much that my husband had to correct one of them when one child was choking another. The adults didn't even notice! or seem to care! But this does not take away from the fact that the restaurant was delicious and the service was great! I would highly recommend it.

We did not have a reservation but we stopped in and asked if they were taking walk-ins and how long the wait was? We were told 10-15 minutes so we gave them our name and waited and waited. Every time someone else came in and asked the girls at the desk told them a different wait time. One girl would say 15 minutes, another would say 30 minutes. We checked back after 25 minutes and were told we were next. 15 minutes later we were seated at a table by the door so we did not experience any atmosphere. Our waiter Paul was great. We ordered the green beans with chili sauce for an appetizer and for our entrees I ordered Chicken Teriyaki Kabobs and my husband ordered Sweet and Sour Chicken. We both agreed our meals were ok but not great. We had better take-out at home. For the price we would probably not go back.

My son and I had dinner at the Yak and Yeti on Thursday, March 31, 2016. I had the Korean Beef while my son had the Crispy Honey Chicken. Both dishes were seasoned to perfection! For desert we the Mango Pie and the Fried Wontons. We will definitely be back.

We had lunch at Yak and Yeti the week of Dec 6, 2015. This was our first visit to this restaurant and we were very impressed with the quality of food. I had the sweet and sour chicken and thought it was delicious. One son had the honey chicken and the other had the Misala chicken. Both ate the entire portion - so it must have been very good.
While our service was good, I didn't particularly care for the sales pitch to join the Landry Dining Club program. The waiter asked 2-3 times if we were interested and didn't seem to want to take no for an answer. I found the whole request a little tacky and off-putting.
However, the food quality was terrific and I do look forward to adding this restaurant to our itinerary again on our next visit.

This place is great if you’re looking for something other than standard theme park food. We had an ADR, but they were accepting walk ins, the place was bustling but never crowded and has lots of exotic artifacts sitting around. Our server was great and ensured we had everything we needed. The food was well prepared with Asian flavors, even the veggies tasted great. The portions are huge, however they do charge for refills on the specialty lemonades. We will definitely make a point to return to Yak and Yeti on future trips.

Loved this place. It was quite crowded but we got a nice seat upstairs at a window with a view of the crowd and street below.
Our server was a 24 year veteran of the place named Mark. He was wonderful. This was only our second day on our trip and my girlfriend who was sick at the start of the trip hadn't got her appetite back. Mark took the time to explain each meal and which were generous portions and which were not. He was so helpful we raved about him as much as the food which was delicious.
We will definitely return here on our next trip.

We were really looking forward to this and the experience was terrible. Our server was abrupt and rushed us. They sat us near the door. There was nothing remotely themed from where we were sitting.
Starter was okay, we had the Dim Sum sharer, however the main course came before we had finished and they just put it on the table. I was speechless.
The mains weren't anything I couldn't cook myself. The Pak Choi was bitter as it was undercooked. I wasn't told my refills were chargeable until I got the bill. We sat down at 3pm and were bundled out by 3:30pm, with $90 less in my pocket. So disappointed and won't be returning.
