great food and price

by melissako

oh goodness. this place is too good; way better than most of the fancier, schmancier trend-aurants that we go to. We always say we'd like to try something new each time but we always stick to the same few fundamentals:

- Tomato-pinapple soup with fish... I crave this... A LOT

- Beef kabobs--- we always leave a couple for leftovers, they taste even better the day after, or as a midnight snack

- "Fried fish in a pork/ginger/bean sauce" we have no idea what it's officially called but the servers always know which one we mean... I take the soup comment back, I crave this dish MUCH MORE

their pad thai and papaya salad are pretty darn decent too. i love that my boyfriend babbles to the servers in Cambodian and I babble in to them in Cantonese, and it's no problem for them at all... pros all the way.

  • Pros: so delicious and affordable
  • Cons: parking can be difficult, especially on busy nights,

I love this place!

by oc_girl

I'm from Orange County and every time I go up north, I go there to eat. The restaurant is a bit small, but it gives it that cozy atmosphere. I don't know the exact names of the dishes, but my favorites are the bbq beef on the stick, the soup that has fish & pineapples in it, and the appetizer that has anchovies that is served with a variety of veggies. I always end the meal with the fried bananas and vanilla icecream. The service is great and quick and the prices are cheap!

  • Pros: Delicious food, great prices
  • Cons: none

Great Cambodian Food!

by inestrinh

Phnom Penh is a great Cambodian spot. The staff is friendly and fast. The stuffed eggplant is my favorite and the BBQ chicken. Can be crowded on the weekends--call ahead for parties larger than 4. Otherwise one of my favorites!!

  • Pros: excellent food, friendly staff
  • Cons: crowded on weekends, parking can be tough
