They have the best Cambodian green noodle ever. But best to eat at home , greater taste when heat up very hot.

What kind of restaurant has a menu with no prices? This shady one does. I ordered only two items and it came out to almost $50. Not worth it. Service sucks.

Amazing food! Everything we ordered was so savory and delicious. We tried Cambodian Cha Throp Syach Chruck Mout (Stir Fry Eggplant with Ground Pork), Cha Tha-Koun Syach Chruck Bey Choun (Stir Fry Watercress with Pork Belly), Cha Knay Syach Moun (Stir Fry Ginger with Chicken), and Cha Krearng Syach Moun (Stir Fry LemonGrass with Chicken). The only down side was the cash only and parking.

The food is amazing. The service was okay. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is the price was so ridiculously high. I got 3 dishes and it ended up being 70+ dollars for the entire meal. They don't put prices on their menu, you really never know what you're going to be paying for the dish. Also they only accept cash. I ended up needing to go to the atm twice because I took out 60.00 thinking that would be enough for the meal (with three dishes), but they hit me with a 70+ bill. So I ended up paying 5+ dollars in atm fees. My advice is ask what the price is before ordering. You may be paying 20+ dollars for a plate of a few tempura shrimp... I understand inflation but damn that shrimp better have some gold in it or something!

It's a hole in the wall, mom and pop's shop. As far as food is concerned, everything we've had was phenomenal. It was made fresh to order, delicious, savory, and packed with flavors. Home cooked meals which brought me to childhood, very nostalgic. The only downside was that there were no prices on the menu. The 3 dishes totaled $79 (excluding tip) so I'm almost certain I got ripped off. It's a shame too. I would've highly recommended this establishment if it wasn't for the shady prices.

Nicest and friendly staff. Boat noodles were excellent but the chicken satay is oily, dry and disappointing. This being a family restaurant I could understand why they don't post prices on the menu, but $30 for a bowl of noodles and over fried dried chicken is a bit high for the area. I'd still come back but def skip the meats on a stick.

The food was amazing and taste very authentic. Must try the Salaw Machu and the beef skewers. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

Great Cambodian food. Drawbacks are limited seating and parking. I recommend coming early on a Saturday or even taking it out. Not to be disappointed. Good food.

1 of 2 go tos for authentic Cambodian food when I'm home I have a bottomless stomach for this. Don't know how to say any of the food we order in English but I'm sure if u show pics they'll know lol (not in pics that's also a must to order: sticky Cambodian donuts (call to order before they always sell out), beef skewers, sweet sour soup & clams) FYI - they close early & cash only no tax!!

Food wasn’t bad, service was good, but extremely overpriced. Restaurant is a scam. Menu had no prices, we ate 3 items, fried fish, salad, and soup which totaled up to $86. Asked the management for the receipt and they said they couldn’t provide it. Other restaurants nearby charge almost 2x less for similar portion sizes. If you go here, make sure to ask for the prices beforehand.

If you didn't know, Long Beach is home to the largest Cambodian community outside of Southeast Asia so there's a part of Long Beach called "Little Cambodia." It's not as common to come across Cambodian restaurants so this is a real gem in Long Beach you have to try especially if you've never had Cambodian food! It's a small mom and pop shop and they take cash only. Parking can be a bit tight during the lunch and dinner rushes and you can try to find street parking. FYI restaurant closes at 6:30p on Sundays. If you're Cambodian, you'll feel right at home seeing the Khmer paintings on the wall, hearing Khmer among the elders, and smelling lemongrass and so many other good foods. It's best to eat family style here so you can try a bit of everything and also because the dishes are large and shareable. My go to orders are: - Beef skewers. Juicy and tender with just the right amounts of fatty pieces and beef with a side of pickled veggies. I believe there are 5-6 pieces. DO NOT get the chicken satay. It is not thin and tasty but rather thick and dry because they use chicken breast. - Papaya salad. Sooo flavorful and makes for a good side with all your other dishes but especially with the beef skewers. - Somlor machu kreong (#48) or somlor kokor (#49). Both are really good soups but #48 is my all time favorite Cambodian soup that's sour and sooooo delicious. #49 has more variety in terms of the vegetables in the soup but it's a bit on the more bitter side if you have a palette for that. Honestly still really good and worth a try. You can't go wrong with either of these soups. - Clam (#74). The sauce in this dish is TO. DIE. FOR. I could eat rice with just the sauce alone lol it's a really unique flavorful dish. The clams can be a little sandy still sometimes tbh and they're not always the biggest pieces but I ALWAYS order this when I go eat with my family. - Beef steak (#63). The best part about this dish isn't necessarily the beef but rather the sauce you dip your beef in! It's like this fermented fish salsa that is just so key to Cambodian culture - Lahb (#44). If you've had larb at a Thai restaurant, you'll be familiar with this dish. I like getting ground chicken with this. The spice and lemony flavors just hit so different with this dish... as in it hits the spot and then some!! disclaimer: I went off of the menu numbers shown on their website so it may or not may not be outdated. Honestly I cannot rave about this place enough. I love bringing my friends here especially people from out of town to not only introduce them to Cambodian food but to also just eat amazingly good food!
