4 Best Restaurants in Cambodia

There are two branches of Khéma in the city, but this one, with its French colonial stylings, heritage building, and location in the heart of the old quarter, is the one to go to. Expect modern French cuisine served at all times of the day, but weekend brunch is probably the most popular meal.

In the elegant setting of the beautifully restored 1880s Indochina Bank Building, next to the historical main post office, you can dine on exquisite French cuisine. The roof terrace above the restaurant has a swanky cocktail bar-lounge.

Possibly the most happening restaurant in Kandal Village, this French-owned and retro-themed bar and international bistro is the go-to place for French cuisine and Khmer staple dishes. Their good selection of wines and cocktails also attracts Siem Reap's drinking elite, especially on Funky Friday, their club night with live DJs. Don't miss the art gallery on the first floor.

The first-class French specialties at this fine restaurant make it a longtime Phnom Penh favorite. Imported cuts of beef from Cape Grim in Tasmania and other highest-quality ingredients cooked to perfection mean that Topaz remains one of the most feted places to dine in the city, a great choice for an intimate meal.
