Wonderful find. The food was great; made with great care. Good service, and a short but good drinks selection.
This was our first visit and we were early (5 PM). By 6 PM when we left, there was a good number of occupied tables and the crowd seemed to be even stronger when we went by at 8:30. We had the lamb skewers, the Pork Momo, the Dhading Chicken, and plain Nann. The three dishes all had totally different flavors, slightly spicy but not overly so. The Nann was exceptional. Prices were modest (Total about $50 for 2 people with light diets). We definitely enjoyed the meal and we will definitely be back.

This is an awesome restaurant. The staff is super helpful and welcoming and they are all wonderful with kids. The atmosphere has a good vibe, cool lighting and great music. And the food is some of the best that I’ve eaten in San Francisco - great, delicious flavors with high quality ingredients. If you want a bite that will change your world, order the cashew curry with chicken, garlic naan, turmeric rice on the side, and then get a side order of their jar of Nepalese Szechuan spice and mix it all together. AND they have great, high quality wine glasses that have thin lip. 10 stars.

Dancing Yak was very cozy and good vibes for a date night or dinner with friends. The food was delicious as well- we got a couple starters to share along with our own dishes, and everything was very tasty. I would say the one con is it was a little expensive for what you get. I know it’s San Francisco so things tend to be a bit pricier, but this just seemed to be the main downside to me. Quality of everything was great though.

Food was good. The vibe here is super good. Not the most authentic taste for the price. Also the layout can be improved because the tables are super close and it makes it really weird to have a conversation when there’s a group sitting right next to you. Staff was nice :)

Despite somewhat spotty service on a slower night, the food was absolutely delicious. Chow mein is a must try, and I hope to make it back again and explore more of the menu!

Wonderful food and service, I will be coming back. Read the fine print on the receipt before using your credit card.
Welcomed by a friendly host and seated right away for lunch. We tried several different dishes -- all very different and so tasty. We shared Spicy Cauliflower (and it is spicy!), Daal Bhat, and Butter Chicken, along with regular naan. Plenty of food for 2 adults and a child. Delicious and a great find!
Mediocre food, bad service
Extremely thoughtful staff. Went today for a friend’s birthday and they went above and beyond. Could not recommend more.

We enjoyed our dinner spent in a lovely atmosphere! The cocktails were good and the food delicious, a bit pricey. We orders almost all their starters and loved the most their momos and the least their fish. We also liked the mains but forgot to take photos of them. The service was ok.
