First time here, and was delighted by the varied choices on the menu, and the many items offered. The fish curry was delicious 😋

Delicious food every time I go! The owners are very friendly and will remember your name after a few visits. Beautiful and clean atmosphere inside. Highly recommend tofu and broccoli with peanut sauce! My friend who enjoys really spicy food was provided with extra sauces upon request!

Good food in a sketchy part of town. We've been to Phnom Penh when it was in Oakland Chinatown and Alameda. We enjoyed the cuisine at both. Well, after dropping our daughter off at the airport, we headed over to the one on MacArthur Blvd to check it out hoping we could eat indoors during post Covid19 times. Unfortunately, street is busy with cars racing down the street and restaurant only offered take out. Bummer. Food is good enough but we will not be back to a neighborhood where one doesn't feel safe. Bang, bang, welcome to Oakland.

I recently ate at Phnom Penh and was really impressed by the whole experience. We tried the Sawlaw Machhou which had a really great fusion of sweet and sour flavors, and every bite felt unique. Perfect for sipping. Also had the Spicy Shimp Papaya Salad which I really enjoyed to cut through some of the other flavors, plus the Cha Kathiw which reminded me a bit of pad thai. A little of everything- I was impressed at how unique the dishes were especially with that nice tamarind flavor in the brother, and the variety of spices used to bring taste to the dishes. The service was also great, friendly and pointed. It felt quite cozy sitting in here and eating. Definitely worth a try.

Not fancy, but good value for money and friendly, efficient service. There are some healthy options and some more decadent options. I consider it an excellent choice for a weekday meal. My favorite is the lemongrass, fish, and pineapple soup - really nicely balanced flavors and always satisfying.

So yummy! Very fresh ingredients. The meats are tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked (not overly fried or overly salty- just a great balance of flavor!). Not crowded. Neighborhood gem. Easy street parking. Freshly squeezed lemonade was delicious. Sweet polite and quick service as well!

Ordered the eggplant lunch special and it did not disappoint 🍆✨. The flavor was delicious, the portion was filling, and the service was excellent 🙌. I visited Cambodia last year and loved the energy of the restaurant 🇰🇭💛. The vibrant colors, beautiful arches, and the refreshing breeze from outside made the atmosphere so enjoyable 🌿🌸. After my meal, I had a lovely conversation with the server, which made the experience even more memorable 💬😊.

Came for dinner. Friendly server seated us promptly. They had mostly 2-4 tops but combined tables for us. The stuffed chicken wings were still my favorite after many years. Pork was also flavorful. They have a good variety of good. Iced coffee was sweet and limeade was fresh. It was a great place to catch up with friends.

Amazing place after we went windsurfing in Alameda!

Good:
- Loved the papaya salad - super fresh and also the spice added a lot
- Singapore noodles had a huge portion size - had good curry sauce but a tad too plain
- The chicken boneless eggroll dish was so unique! I don't think I could have finished it though since it was huge
- Fried banana and sesame ice cream was so memorable, definitely get it
- The service was so fast, and they checked in so often
- Cute spot for a date day! Loved how clean and sunny it was inside

Bad:
- The meal was on the more expensive side but we shared a lot!

Overall enjoyed the experience a lot here and would recommend!

One of my family’s favorite places to dine. We’ve been customers for a long time, before they moved to this location. Still a classic & always hits the spot. Depending on the time it may be hard to find parking on the main street but can easily park in the residential areas down the street
