Viroth Restaurant, Siem Reap
 

A friend has just recommended Viroth Restaurant in Siem Reap, any thoughts from you fine folks ?

Nice space- very airy and modern. thought the food just ok, but overall thought food in Cambodia not nearly as good as Thailand, Laos or VN. Our driver said "all the tourists go to Viroth."

Thanks for the prompt reply, we are staying just up the road so I might have a look .

My favorite is Khmer Kitchen....

A hearty vote for Cuisine Wat Damnak. By a New York mile, the BEST meal I had while in Siem Reap a few weeks ago. Just stupendously good:

already have that one booked !

We enjoyed our meal at Viroth (which we settled for after we drove around in a tuk-tuk fruitlessly searching for Cuisine Wat Damnak!). The food and service were very good, and the open-air space and soothing decor were lovely and relaxing.

Another restaurant we enjoyed was the vegetarian Chamkar in the Passage downtown.

It has been a few years so don't take my rec too seriously but....we were also staying just down the street & went there a couple of times. At the time the Fish Amok was the best I had in SR!

You must be getting excited Marko, you leave tomorrow don't you? I'll be watching out for any on the road updates.
Safe travels,

Have a great trip. We adored Siem Reap, the people, the PLF, our driver.. everything.
