Once upon a time, I crowned this spot the reigning champion of all Disney Park dining delights. Yet, on a day when the stars aligned and the park was quieter than a sleeping chipmunk, I found myself on an epic quest for sustenance, enduring a 50-minute wait with more empty tables than a magician's hat has rabbits. Even the waitress seemed to join me in scratching our heads over the missing meal. Alas, I bid farewell to both my appetite and any future rendezvous with this establishment and left without my meal.

I really enjoy this restaurant! It has good food, great atmosphere and it’s pretty affordable! It’s a nice escape from the Florida heat in the summer as well. I got the Shrimp Lo Mein last time, which was really good, but I’d love to try the Tuna Nachos!

Unexpected gem!The food is almost like a fine dining! Both entrees we ordered were surprisingly good, they have lots of options for kids meal too. We spend almost $90 for a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) but would dine again if there's a next time.

This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants on Disney property. The menu is huge compared to most you'll find on property and the prices are far more reasonable. This time we had Yao as our server and he was fantastic! He gave awesome recommendations, checked on us often and it was honestly the best service we've ever had on property. The chicken lo mein and the honey chicken are both fantastic!

A trip to Disney world is not complete without a meal at Yak n Yeti. I think it's the best restaurant in Disney World. Always consistent food and excellent service. We also like to paint a buddha if we get a seat at the bar!

Surprised that I did not leave a review here last time I visited - which was two years ago. This was a core food memory of that trip. Everything was so good then, and so good now! One thing we learned from our first visit is that the portions are MASSIVE - if you are not big eaters, do not even order 1 entree per person unless you want to be carrying around leftovers or leaving some behind. Our perfect portion for two was the ahi tuna nachos ($22), side house fried rice ($16) and Korean fried chicken ($17). The nachos are a MUST try - but the portion is extremely big so we had to cut down on another big item.The house fried rice is also amazing, with great flavours and a wonderful medley of various veggies and meat. It was a bit drier than I remember but we also ordered more saucy entrees last time (such as the tikka masala). The Korean fried chicken was a great final addition to our meal, although I'd admit that it did not resemble traditional Korean fried chicken. It's just tasty fried chicken. I would recommend for sure, the portion is great for the price and it's not dry at all.Overall we were very happy with the meal, service, and price ($60 before tax and tip). The meal could add up depending on what you order, as a lot of entrees are $30+ and the appetizers all look so tempting. But beware the portions are huge so don't overorder! Please also make a reservation if you're keen on eating here to avoid disappointment. It's basically always booked up.
Went there on 3/24 and everything was amazing! Our server Shawn was incredible and all our food was amazing. Will be a staple for all future Animal Kingdom trips going forward!

Food was really good, there was one of us with a food allergy and the chef came out to talk to us that's very impressive. We are very thankful for that. Will definitely eat there again. Price was reasonable as well, cocktails were good ?

Enjoyed lunch 3/20/2024 during our day at Animal Kingdom. We ordered Lettuce Cups, Wok Fried Green Beans, Chicken Fried Rice & Tempura Fried Shrimp to share and everything was DELICIOUS!! The restaurant was packed, service was good and once our order was taken it was only a short wait before our lunch was served. We will definitely be return customers and I highly recommend if you’re looking for somewhere to sit down, relax and eat inside Animal Kingdom Asia.

Simply sensational. We ordered the ribeye with mashed potatoes and braised vegetables… It was a must-have. Dessert was a pineapple upside down cake with vanilla ice cream and I never imagined that a cake with ice cream could be so delicious. Friendly and attentive attendants. Best option at Animal Kingdom by far!

We chose this restaurant just random just to get out of the heat. We cooled off and had a great meal. The Kobe Beef Burger was and is the best burger i ever had in my life do yourself a favor and drop in.
