Typical Asian style restaurant in Lowell. It was a slow day, so no customers have arrive before me and my mother. The food was OK, the price is more expensive than what I can find in Lynn/Revere area. Parking had plenty spots to park, but location wise it's a tight area where traffic is fast or jammed with cars. Overall experience is normal Asian style restaurant. The one thing I recommend on the menu is the beef chow foon.

Red Rose has pretty good cambodian food. We liked the family style meal that we shared - the Lok Lac and Water veggies were good.

Super authentic Cambodian food. Unusual bitter flavors with rare vegetables such as winter melon or bitter melon.

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Mass. It has been a staple restaurant in my family for +15 years. I would consider this a must try for anybody.

This food is so amazing. My wife ordered a plate of the Beef Lok Lak and I immediately ordered another right after her. You really just have to try it, pictures don’t do justice. I also ordered the spicy wings they were amazing. Good portion, great quality and fresh! I would have shared photos, but I ate through everything already. 😂
I was excited to try out this place after I read that this restaurant was a James Beard semi-finalist. I'm just shocked that a restaurant outside of Boston (and nearby towns) actually got some recognition. And I mean this in a nice way - I hate that everything is only in Boston!
I was in town for a Showcase Cinemas showing, and it felt like a perfect opportunity to finally come here. This restaurant was easily accessible off of Exit 89B on in I-495, and then Exit 5B shortly after. Parking feels a little limited with only about 13 spots shared between the several businesses here. I manage to grab one just as someone was leaving.
The restaurant interior felt like a typical hole-in-the-wall Chinese place (okay, I know it's Cambodian). Nothing to write home about. There was plenty of seating available I arrived, and I was sat at a double-booth table.
The menu is large and fairly overwhelming, but there are enough pictures for you to point at something that looks good. I was already prepared before arriving here and I knew I had to try the Beef Loc Lac. These seem like steak tips. Small chunks of beef, with a sweet glaze. Delicious. It came with the ubiquitous bowl of rice, and a dipping sauce I was not a fan of. It was very sour which felt like an odd pairing, but that might just be my unfamiliarity with the cuisine's flavor profiles.
I mistakenly ordered the fried chicken wings thinking I would be hungry to eat two different dishes. When they arrived, I was already full from the Beef Loc Lac. Oh boy, these wings were deeply crunchy! I didn't detect any notable seasoning, but they were very good plain wings.
Overall, I enjoyed my food and hope to come back here again to try out more stuff.
Prices are up and portions are way smaller than the past. Seems like low quality ingredients used given the taste of the broths and execution. Sadly, this place is a Lowell staple that has gone way down the drain.
VERY tasty at reasonable prices, at least the coconut soup if. Just be ready if you come that service might be a little slow :).
This place is wonderful. It is the most authentic Cambodian food I’ve found in the U.S. As someone who regularly travels to Cambodia, I love Khmer food and culture. And this place is exactly that, authentic Khmer food and culture. The food is delicious and there is so much variety. I highly highly recommend the beef loc lac, so delicious (maybe even a little more than the ones I’ve had in Phnom Penh). I love Cambodia town and I would say Red Rose is the heart of it. Thank you for the great meal and service.
