Street No. 9, Passage / Old Market,Siem Reap, Kingdom of Cambodia
What travelers say:
The environment is very exotic. Maybe it was past mealtime, there were only two tables of customers in the store. The tableware and tablecloths have a Cambodian feel. Super good.
Amok is a kind of condiment, which I understand as curry. I ordered fish and chicken, and it was delicious with rice.
The main thing is that the condiments in Southeast Asia have a unique flavor!

This is the most expensive restaurant in Siem Reap, and they charge a 10% service charge. It serves classic Cambodian cuisine with a wide variety of dishes. The dishes are beautifully presented and suitable for taking photos. The Cambodian sour soup is recommended, which is sour and a little spicy, very appetizing. There are five varieties of mixed smoothies that you can try.
A popular restaurant behind Pub Street. As you can tell from the name, it specializes in Cambodia's national dish, amok. The presentation is really beautiful, a feast that blooms like a flower, and I was reluctant to put down my chopsticks. The taste of most dishes is not inferior to the presentation. A service charge is required for checkout.
It is said that amok is a plant, and its leaves are used to wrap dishes, including fish, chicken, beef and rice, a bit like rice dumplings. The two of us thought it was delicious! The Tom Yum Goong soup in the middle was just right~ It was a bit expensive, and there was a 10% fee, which cost more than 30 dollars a meal
The restaurant is located opposite the old market. It is named AMOK. You can tell at a glance that it is a traditional Cambodian restaurant. The cashew-patterned tablecloth and dark red decoration are very eye-catching. The restaurant is very large, almost occupying half of the length of the alley. The interior is divided into two floors, and the menu is in Chinese. It is recommended to order a set meal, which is affordable and has a wide variety. Except for drinks, which need to be ordered separately, everything from appetizers to desserts is included in the set meal. The green mango salad, AMOK fish, spring rolls, and Tom Yum soup in the two-person set meal are all delicious. But the set meal is too big, and the only drawback is that the table is too small.

The Khmer food tastes good, but the price is quite expensive, 12 US dollars per person, so it is better to save money. The waiter is very warm and attentive. If the napkin falls on the ground during the meal, he will come to pick it up and lay it for you. But there is a point, this restaurant charges a 10[%] service charge, which is super high in the local area.
This is one of the restaurants recommended in the guide. Amok is a specialty of Cambodian cuisine. There is no air conditioning downstairs in this restaurant. It is still a bit stuffy with the fan blowing. It seems that no one goes upstairs. There is a group purchase, but we did not have a group, so we directly ordered a set meal for two and ordered some food we wanted. The waiter in the restaurant can speak English, and he sent us beer and unexpectedly sent us corn juice. I don’t know why he sent it, but we accepted it anyway. It was very delicious and thick corn juice. The platter here is very interesting. There is a small flag on it to tell what kind of meat it is. In fact, the meat is all chopped minced meat. Cambodian beef is a bit old, but the others are okay. The smoothie platter we ordered at the end has 5 flavors, sweet and sour, which is quite refreshing. This restaurant charges a 10[%] service charge. This is the only restaurant we ate in Cambodia that charges a service charge.
I really like this amok restaurant located in the old market. Many foreigners come here to eat. We ordered a large platter, mango shake and honey banana. The taste is very good. I highly recommend this restaurant. The environment of the restaurant is also amazing. It is based on Khmer purple and is very charming. If you want to taste authentic Khmer cuisine, this is the right place!
