I can't wait to eat at Yak & Yeti in December. We've not been there since they opened in 2007 and am definitely getting one of those Pina Coladas.
It's been way too long then Kathy!! I hear the Yak Attack is a tasty cocktail as well. (think mango daiquiri)
I have never eaten here either, but with such wonderful reviews I have it on my most do, whenever we get to go back...lol
We've eaten here 3 times and it consistently keeps us coming back. It's still on the rotation next trip.
I haven't been to Y&Y for years...I think its time to put it back in rotation.

I just hope to one day add V&A INTO my rotation like you!!
Just changed around some reservations to try out Yak & Yeti on our AK day! Can't wait to try it.
Love your reviews!!
Hi Margareton!! I hope you like it!! I'd feel bad if it disappointed you after switching things around!!
Honestly, this wasn't a good representation of this place since we only ordered a couple sides but this is a wonderful option at AK!
Thank you for joining and reading!
Mmmm, Yak and Yeti. Great place!
That Pina Colada looks mighty tasty there. Perfect choice for a hot day.
Of course dessert was in your future! Because it's seriously incredible stuff.
I like the idea of just ordering sides for lunch. I'm going to have to do that in the future.
Hey Dani!! I absolutely agree!!
That cocktail is becoming my standard drink at that place. I should expand my horizons just a little!
Don't you know it! Those cream cheese wontons are so delish!
One day I'll come with more of an appetite and order an entrée but for now, I like the sides so it works for us.
I'd love to try Yak and Yeti! Those dessert wontons look amazing!!! I like how you think
a little snack and then the good stuff!
See... gotta leave room for dessert. You've seen my strategy.
I am still bitter about my stone cold fruit wontons from Y&Y
Maybe I will give them another chance one day
Oh Linda I remember that wonton fail! I'd hold a grudge too. First impressions are important and all.
Hi Brenda! Just wanted to check in and apologize for falling behind (unfortunately that isn't changing tonight). Those Yak & Yeti wontons look great. Haven't had that dish in several years, but I remember really enjoying it.
Hi Mr. DDW. No worries. Your focus is on the important things. I'm glad you stopped in to say hi. I'm looking forward to reading your live dining updates next month.
I meant to "sign in" earlier but I don't think I actually got to post yet! I have been reading along though. I want to become a more adventurous eater so I'm enjoying your descriptions of everything!

Hi Wendy!! No worries. I'm so glad that you are here and reading along and figuring out some new things to try.
Oh! We love Yak and Yeti!!! The fried green beans are fantastic!! If my DH could have his way, I'm sure he would want to go here more than once per trip!
Hi Tink!! I've seen those green beans on the menu but wasn't sure about how good they were. Are they served with a dipping sauce??
Those dessert wontons are to. die. for! I tried them based on the many great reviews here on the Dis, but I was a little skeptical that they'd live up to the hype (I'm sometimes known to not be crazy about things that are legendary - case in point: bread pudding from 'Ohana
) but they definitely delivered!!!
Aren't they? Oh soooo good! They are definitely a Dining Board favorite.
I will say that as much as I like the 'Ohana bread pudding, it doesn't compare to some other desserts such as Ger's Bread and Butter Pudding at RR. (or anther dessert that I have yet to share.) But I know what you mean.
Y & Y is one restaurant I really want to try. Egg rolls are the best! I love how you guys got smaller items too. So many times at a sit down you order soooo much food & then you're full for the rest of the day. Do you ever feel like the wait staff looks down upon you when you don't order a lot? Everything looks so good. I definitely want what you both ordered! (So much for ordering a little, huh?)
There definitely is a strategy to ordering smaller sides so we can make room for dessert!! Honestly, the problem is that I want to eat at so many restaurants and if we eat three big meals a day I'd die so I tend to eat smaller meals and still order dessert.
We've never had an issue with the wait staff holding out on us from a service perspective when we've ordered light or even split entrees.
