I needed up going to Chamkar each of my three days in Siem Reap and really LOVED the food. I live in Singapore, which has lots of good food, but nothing so fresh and delicately flavored as at Chamkar. Ended up trying nearly their entire menu. From the smell and the taste, it was clear that everything was slowly prepared... More

My husband and I went here on our first night in Siem Reap. Delicious, freshly prepared authentic veggie food - no fish sauce used also which was a bonus... Definately worth a visit!

Delicious organic food in a lovely setting. Friendly staff. You do have to wait a little while but that is because your meal is freshly prepared without MSG or any nasties. Clean and fresh

What an amazing find. Doesn't look like much from outside as only two little tables on the street. Although perhaps a little expensive it is well worth it - we went back 3 times between lunches and dinners and enjoyed it over and over each time - we ate something different every meal & standard and taste was consistent.

We ate at this 100% Vegetarian restaurant on 2 consecutive nights and were able to work our way through almost the entire menu. Goes without saying that it is difficult to find vegetarian food in a place like Siem Reap, more so when you are finicky about the use of fish sauce or shrimp paste even in vegetarian food. On...

Had to wait for a table, this was well worth it. The food was really nice and different. The atmosphere great too. They have a wide selection of awesome restaurants near by yet this one still manages to stand out

We went here for a late light lunch and thought it would be good based on all the reviews and patrons we saw on other days. We just wanted some spring rolls and a beer. 20 minutes later of the waiters playing on their phones we finally got them, and they were tasteless. Just a couple places down was Traditional... More

The food is amazing, a lot of flavours. The menu offers a lot of tasty options. Don't eat to much before going there, the servings are quite royal.
