Best Curry Anywhere

Dec 2019 • none

We happened in to Khmer Kitchen on our first night in Siem Reap with another couple. We were all very pleased with our meals. The wait staff got my friend's very "fuss" order exactly right and the chef prepared it perfectly. I ordered the Khmer Curry (yellow curry with fish). It was the best I've ever had. I ordered curry in lots of other restaurants throughout our stay in Cambodia and it was never as good. I just had to return to Khmer Kitchen for our last diner. I had the same entree, but with tofu. It was just as delicious.

Overcooked chicken, but not a bad experience

Jan 2020 • couples

We went looking for traditional Cambodian cuisine and ended up at this place with a nice setting in a French colonial style building. I can't really say how authentic the traditional dishes are but it seems the kitchen cuts corners to serve its large attendance of customers. You can get a sense of some traditional flavours here but it shouldn't be your main point of reference for Cambodian food.

Enjoy Authentic Khmer Cuisine

Jan 2020 • couples

On our first night in Siam Reap, we wanted to try the local cuisine. So we headed for the famous Pub street and came across this restaurant. We ordered Fish Amok, a must try when in Cambodia and BBQ chicken with Khmer spices. Both the dishes were delicious, at the same time very light. Also when in Cambodia don't forget to order the fresh fruit juices, they are simply refreshing.

quite touristic

Dec 2019 • none

Very central location, close to the tourist trap of "pub street" (a nonsense to me). This is among the most authentic khmer you will find in this area. Staff is very cordial but prices and food are quite a bit "Westernized". i would always recommend to stay away from Pub street but if for some reasons you are forced to spend some time in this area this restaurant is probably among the best you can find

Not that great!

Feb 2020 • friends

We had dinner there and were disappointed in the quality and taste of the majority of our dishes. Given the positive ratings on trip advisor we expected a far better meal. The tofu amok, tofu cashew nut stir fry and spring rolls were tasteless. There were far too many onions in both dishes. The Tom yum soup was okay but not great. The only dish that was very good was the fried pumpkin with tofu. The fruit shakes were good. Prices were reasonable but based on the disappointing meal they weren’t that reasonable.

Great Dining Experience in Siem Reap

Feb 2020 • none

I had dinner here two consecutive evenings after having the Yellow Curry Chicken. It was awesome, so I came back for seconds on night two. The staff was efficient and attentive. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the price was surprisingly low for the quality of the food we had.

Great food and value for money

Mar 2020 • none

We came to this restaurant because it was recommended by both our private driver and some hotel staff members. It did not disappoint and became our favourite restaurant in Siem Reap. Service was always quick and friendly and the food was always excellent. Their Khmer BBQ is delicious as well as their curries and traditional dishes. We ate here 3 times during our stay and I cannot fault this place.

Nice street view but food average

Jan 2023 • none

Rather cold, unsmiling greeting from hostess definately not very welcomg start but serving staff were nice, freindly and efficient. The food was nothing special but the portions were good. The prices, like all the restaurants in that area, are slightly inflated because of the location. Walk a short distance away from the noisy area and you will find quieter restaurants that are better value. Great place to sit and watch the world go by. Went there once, would not go back again. To be fair perhaps it was their off day.

Great Food and Drinks

Jul 2022 • none

Food here presents a nice introduction to Cambodian cuisine. I read people writing reviews about this place's baked goods and Western food; why are you in Cambodia to try the stuff you can get everywhere else, and then complaining about it? Ridiculous expectations that only demonstrates those writers' poor sense of taste. No, you come here for local food like Lok Lak and their Khmer Soup, which I had the pleasure of ordering. Prices may be a bit expensive, but this is Siem Reap, a tourist hotspot, and Khmer Kitchen is right at its heart. Honestly in that light, the quality of food you get here is a bargain. I also got their fruit smoothies, and have to say on a hot day, there is nothing quite like their ice blended pineapple or mango smoothie. They also have wine and beer if you're a drinker. Service here is very prompt, although I recognize July is the off period, and at the time of writing Cambodia is only just recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic. All this in mind, the warmth and welcome here is remarkable, and the restaurant presents a haven for peace and good food after being hounded by tuktuk drivers while walking around the area. Sit inside to avoid road side vendors.

Tiny shrimps and TOO many onions

Jan 2020 • family

Amok with tofu was ok. The vegetables seems to be frozen vegetables and are a bit bland. My father got shrimps in peppersauce, he got like 7 mini, really tiny, shrimps. There was barely anything to eat. But most of all. TOO MUCH ONIONS in all the dishes. Sure they are a cheap way to substitute other vegetables but this was too much.

Good food & good people watching

Dec 2019 • none

After some amusing language problems my wife & I finally managed to order a Green Papaya Salad plus a Pumpkin & Coconut Soup. Both were very good, especially the soup. Washed down with lime juice & beers. There seemed to be a multitude of young staff here with varying standards of English, but all were friendly & helpful. This is an excellent place if you just want to sit & people watch.

Average Khmer Food

Feb 2020 • none

Good service , location on Pub St however you feel about that. There’s a type of Thai and Khmer food preparation I call ‘Country Style’. Sort of like getting a blue plate special at a diner in rural Kansas. This restaurant is like that. The vegetables are cut up into big 2 inch chunks in odd ways. Some may be cooked, some not so much. In any case unlike thinner cut ingredients they do not get coated with and absorb the sauces they are cooked in. Curries and sauces are not refined compared to better restaurants. Ingredients are not of the highest quality in terms of texture and taste. But it’s pretty good - just not as savory as higher quality restaurants.

Delicious local food in convenient central location

Mar 2020 • none

This airy and roomy restaurant is situated close to Pub street and The night Market making it an ideal place for something to eat before shopping or experiencing Pub Street. The menu was extensive and very reasonably priced. The staff were young, pleasant and helpful. I visited with a friend and we sat upstairs getting some welcome breeze and a good view of the hustle and bustle in the street below. The food was very good and the portion size just right.

Wonderful soup

Jan 2020 • couples

The Khmer Style Soup here is not to be missed. Extremely tasty and very balanced. There is a small chilli hidden at the bottom of the bowl, which you can use to add hotness to the soup. But be warned, it's one of the fierce little ones 😉

Lovely food, friendly service

Jan 2020 • couples

We ate lunch here several times during our short stay in Siem Reap, despite there being so many restaurants in the immediate vicinity. The staff were always welcoming with big smiles, Cambodian food very good indeed. Nice airy open feel. Lots of staff around meaning good service while not being intrusive. My recommendations: Chicken Amok curry or Fried bell peppers with fish.
