Kwest in Amanjaya Pancam Hotel will not scare anyone. Well situated on a Riverfront corner, they have a good menu and decent food. If you are having drinks only, go to Le Moon on the hotel roof instead and enjoy the view. Good selection of tapas an often an in crowd up there. Open after 1700 hrs. More

The French people who own this restaurant obviously invested quite a bit of money into making it look attractive, but from there they would still need to actually run it. I have stopped going there. The staff behave as if the place were some kind of high school popularity contest where patrons should be ranked according to how "cool" the... More

KWest is a nice restaurant we have visited a numbner of times. We stayed at the Amanjaya Hotel above. The food is fine -- certainly on the expensive side for Phnom Penh. The decor is very chic and comfortable. For an upscale restaurant, however, we have found the service -- let's just say -- amusing. On our first trip we... More

Where to start! I popped in her on the night before and booked for the following night. On arrival with my Cambodian friends I was told that the booking I made they had thought was for the same night that I had popped in. Strange, as I had watched the girl write my booth request down. There was a solo... More

I stayed in Phnom Penh 2 nights & ate here both times, the food was great & the waiters were friendly enough, I had the mediterranean chicken one night & another chicken dish the next, both were very tasty, they make great fresh juice too, the restaurant is nice & it's all indoors so it's a nice place to escape...

Wow, what a surprise. As my husband was craving for good steak, my Aussie friend recommended us to try out this restaurant. Have to say that I was skeptical -- Have walked past it so many times in the past (to go for my haircut just next door), but never really had a good vive. (Anyway, we decided to give... More

We went in there because it started pouring while we were directly in front of it and we only went in in order not to get soaked. The place looks like a tourist trap. It's on the main promenade, is full of Western wanna-be business people and all in all, it looked very suspicious to me :-) It turns out... More
