The food here is excellent. While the portions are on the smaller side, the quality is outstanding & every dish is packed with flavor. We went for a date night & really enjoyed the atmosphere. The vibe was relaxed, the music wasn't too loud, & it made for an easy, enjoyable evening.
We ordered the papaya salad, spicy fried chicken, stuffed wings, & two cocktails. The papaya salad & fried chicken were my favorites, while my husband loved the stuffed wings. Although the prices are a bit high for the portion sizes, the taste & quality made it feel worth it. The cocktails were delicious as well, & I'm definitely looking forward to coming back.
Nous étions quatre à partager des plats, très agréable, l'arrivée des différents plats a été bien agencé. Les goûts étaient exceptionnels & très différentes de l'offre culinaire cambodgienne courante. Nous avons hâte de renouveler l'expérience.
This is a phenomenal place. The food was excellent & palatable even for the most anti-adventueous guest, & the service & atmosphere were both incredible. This might be a bit of an unpopular opinion but while the stuffed wings are good, the fried chicken is even better. Great place for a night out with friends or a romantic date with your better halves.
A great Cambodian culinary experience 🇰🇭 cozy & nice place for a date or just a night out . The food is yummy from the wasabi to kebab. The cocktails are just wow ,Miss Cambodgienne is my fav 😍 ,Lucy Lui is also great & they have an spicy mojito, just perfect .
Overrated & not worth the price. The service was very slow, & the food was average at best. For five people we paid $370 CAD & still left hungry. Very disappointing experience.. we won't be coming back.
Had a great time. Food & cocktails brilliant as always. Disappointed the Lamb chops not on the menu anymore, me & my mates, specifically came in yesterday for those.
This was my second time there & once again it was a delectable experience! If you can handle the wasabi, I highly recommend the shrimp ceviche!!! The Amok cod is so delicious & a little cocktail- the main squeeze- just rounds it all off!!
A salada de wasabi fois uma surpresa boa, a experiência é única e saborosa, recomendo se gosta da ardência! Pratos diferentes e super saborosos com ótimos preços, vale a ida!
Nice & cozy place. You get to taste original cambodian dishes with a little personal touch of modern cuisine. The fried papaya in their papaya salad is a great addition for the taste & the texture. They also offer a special kind of beer, pomelo & kaffir lime, made exclusively for this restaurant.
Had one of the most memorable meals of the year at Les street monkeys. I highly recommend trying their seasonal items as everything is fresh & flavourful. Every dish was unique, saucy, full of flavour & highly enjoyable. The best dish of the night had to be the NATAING (seasonal dish: porc) but the fried chicken was memorable. I loved my cocktail (2ND BASE ON THE STREET) with notes of coconut & pandan. I can easily say it was one of the best coconut cocktails i've ever had. Impeccable service, nice ambiance & decor.
