Tried Wild Yak for the first time through UberEats after passing it countless times in person. I was first drawn in by the promise of momos and further impressed by their extensive and unique vegetarian options. In addition to the 4 piece veg momo set (which only come fried but are absolutely delicious that way) I also got two vegetable dishes - the delightfully sweet and sour honey and lemon vegetables and the mushrooms and vegetables cooked with cheese. I didn’t know what to expect from the dairy but it was melted through the dish and gave it a creamy, garlicky essence. Coconut rice and a steamed bun rounded out the meal. It arrived quickly, was very reasonably priced and tasted great.
3.5. Friendly and helpful staff. Really enjoyed the momo combo option where we sampled the different momos: steamed beef (my fav), panfried chicken (nice), deepfried veggie (nice) and panfried cheese (ok). Next was the fried beef thenthuk which had tasty soft noodles, although a tad bland. Would love to try it in the soup next time. Next we had the special pork dish with a spicy cheesy sauce. The dish was a surprise, very flavourful and quite spicy but worked well with the cheese. We scooped it up with the tingmo (bun), a large dense bun. Tried the Tibetan tea - too salty for my tastebuds. Overall, a lovely dining experience.
Walked passed this place many times but didn’t think much of it.
Until I decided to give it a stab. With some mates byo thank you very much!
The Momos were outstanding, like swallowing down a hot piece of soft gold filled with the finest beef and herbs money can buy. These were soo fresh. So tasty we ordered another round. The servings were huge and all the dishes were delish.
If you feel like a leak, head towards the back end and stop over and say hello to the Chef. The guy with the long goatee and large hat. He really looked like he was loving every single dish he was churning out. He was even wearing a Tibetan outfit!
We had a table of 4, worked out to be $25 a head at sharing 4 dishes.
Honest Tibetan food at a very reasonable price especially for Northcote. I highly rate this place. I shall be back soon!
