I was really surprised by this restaurant. The food is delicious and the prices are super reasonable. If you’re in the mood for more authentic Cambodian dishes, they have it. I haven’t had a lot of Cambodian food but I would best describe it as similar to Vietnamese food but slight variations and some more options. Would 10/10 recommend!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

My favorite restaurant on university, every single thing i’ve tried here has ranged from just delicious on the low end to phenomenal/mind-blowing. It always takes me a while to order because everything looks so good! The service is super friendly and fast, and I’ve never had issues finding street parking right outside the restaurant. I wish i lived closer to university ave so I can eat here more often :)

This Cambodian restaurant truly surprised me—in the best way. The food is authentic, full of bold, rich flavors that taste like real home cooking. From the moment I walked in, the hospitality was warm and genuine. It’s clearly an honest, hardworking family-run business. The recommended dishes were fantastic: good portions, lots of meat, and very affordable. We tried spring roll, papaya salad, #17, 22 and #38. #38 is especially good, spicy and full of flavor. I highly recommend #22 as well. Some of the dishes might be a bit on the sweet side for some people, but I liked it just fine. Everything we ordered tasted great, and it all feels lovingly made. A great spot if you want authentic Cambodian food and great service.
