Exactly the kind of place I love to go to! Their food isn't just well priced, but extraordinarily good. Most of the places I've been to have less quality and higher prices, so they won on both of those fronts. Overall, I will recommend anyone that likes Asian food to check them out. They are very friendly and I enjoyed every second of being there. My roommate and I will definitely be going back for more and we are considering making it our regular spot. 10 out of 10!

Delicious food that makes you feel like you're getting that home cooking that we have all been missing since becoming adults. The owner was friendly and helped explain the menu and was very attentive to our needs. Got the combination platter that had a little bit of everything and I ate every last bit of it up because it was just that good. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and will be returning in the future!

We were visiting from Florida and stumbled upon this beautiful place while walking the area from our hotel. We’ve never had Cambodian food so wanted to give it a try. The owner was amazing, so patient with our questions and gave her recommendations for first timers. She explained also the traditional ways of their cooking and doing it homestyle to honor those who taught them and how they grew up. So to the very few comments of a long wait; good things take time. She also made on site fresh cucumber water. The food was amazingly seasoned. The heat was balanced out with fresh cucumbers and pickled veggies. Omg, yes, that was another great part that everything was fresh! The quality, portion & sense of community was mind blowing

I've never had Cambodian food before and it was absolutely amazing. Everything is perfectly seasoned and the crispy rice is something new to me. The owner is so friendly.

Just ate here, and the food was amazing. 3 of us shared an order of shrimp skewers, a combo plate, and the Ah Me Noodles from the specials board. The shrimp had a good char to it and was really nice. The noodles were fragrant and flavorful. They are a saucey noodle dish with fresh veggies and beef. The combo plate is a great plate to get on your first time. My favorite item on it was the coconut quarter chicken. It was so tender and had great flavor. It pairs perfectly with sticky rice. The meatballs, stuffed chicken wing, and pickled veggies were all really good, too. Good portions, and they bring out extra paper plates if you want to do a family style shared meal. Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot. There isn't much indoor seating, which is its only downside, though I'm not sure how busy it gets for dine in. Plenty of parking due to the strip mall location it's in including a bunch of Tesla chargers.

I recently had the pleasure of trying authentic Cambodian food for the first time, and I was pleasantly surprised by how different it was from Thai and Vietnamese cuisine. The flavors were unique and vibrant, yet comforting. One standout dish was the burnt rice, which was cooked to perfection—crispy on the edges, tender inside, and full of flavor. It had that perfect homey feel that instantly made me feel at ease. The highlight of my visit wasn’t just the food, though. The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel as though I had known her for years. Her warmth and hospitality truly enhanced the experience. It’s not just a meal; it’s an invitation into a rich and delicious culture.

Amazing place! Food is always solid! Every dish I have tried has been really tasty. The fresh herbs, pungent spicy aromatics and variety of other ingredients all harmoniously combine well! LOVE the lady who always carefully explains each dish to ensure her customers can fully enjoy the experience! She really cares about her craft and sharing of her culture with others. I always ensure to tell her the aromatic chicken with crispy rice dish is my boyfriend's absolute favorite dish here!

Incredible food, owner is super friendly. Highly recommend the combo plate. Chicken is crisped to perfection, sticky rice is on point! Lime cucumber ice water is a nice touch. Beef skewers were amazingly rich and tender. Will definitely be back :)
