Solid cheap meal - Edit
I arrived on a national holiday. They had holiday menu (much smaller than normal) was told it could all be veganized . What I had was simple and quick. I had instant noodles with fried mushrooms and the the nutritional soup. I added some chili paste/sauce on the table . Great flavor and instant fire it was pretty amazing.

Easy, delicious, affordable. - Edit
Easy to find, though there are two vegetarian restaurants beside each other with similar frontages, so just check you are at the one you intend to go to.
Read moreOrder with a menu card, lots to choose from, super obvious what's vegan etc.
I had soup and dumplings, the thick soup was a thick, viscous broth, kinda weird but I'm into it, lots of veggies and various mock meats, the dumplings were not quite boiled long enough so still a little frozen but I finished them off in my piping hot soup.
Soup was a decent portion, very happy.
Staff/owners were nice, there are some products to buy there too, if you want a can of vegan spam.

Huge selection, super tasty, friendly staff - Edit
We went here multiple times during our week in Phnom Penh. Best prices in the city, super tasty dishes (never had anything that was not nice), clean food (never had problems with digestion), the owner is really nice.
Read moreThe menu selection is very clearly marked for vegan/vegan option/ovo-lacto vegetarian. Coffee can be ordered with coconut milk (not in the menu, the owner offered me) w/o surcharge.
Only downside for us was their extensive use of fake meats, but the ones we tried were actually very tasty, especially the crispy vegan steak.
The dumplings are also lovely.
Must-visit in Phnom Penh!

Super tasty food, almost everything can be made vegan werden👍🏽 - Edit
The food is super tasty! 👍🏽👍🏽
Read moreWe especially loved the dumplings and the vegan steak with noodles! The prices are totally okay (around €2-3 per meal) and it's definitely worth it!
Almost everything on the menu can be made vegan and this is clearly labelled. You order with a slip of paper (reusable) and can therefore take your time ordering!😄Everything is great, gladly again😄
Pros: Dumplings , Vegan steak with noddles , Almost everything can be made vegan

Good - Edit
Food is very tasty, there is big choice of dishes and they’re clearly marked if can be vegan (most of them can). Staff is nice with very good enlish. Working wifi avalible. And also they offer mini hot pot if you travel solo and hadn’t have a chance to try it before for this reason😉What is good you can see each dish on the picture as well as list of indigrients so it’s very easy to know what you order (unlike other similar restaurants in Asia.). Foreign cards payment available.

Big menu, okay food - Edit
You have sooo many options! Ordering is very easy, you just write the numbers of your dishes on a card. Food tastes okay, very cheap. It's an old restaurant, but bathroom and seating area is clean and they serve everything in cute kitty plates.

Big menu, ok food, best value in PP - Edit
Very extensive menu they have pretty much everything. Self service you just write your number on a card and hand it in. Staff aren’t as attentive as other places. Best thing is the value, far cheaper than other restaurants in PP, would go again on that basis.
Read moreSizzling black pepper steak with rice was nice, soup it was in a little bland.
Dumpling in nutritious soup was good
Boiled braised was average but good protein content!
Passion fruit soda and strawberry smoothie were very nice!
Pros: Price , Drinks
Cons: Food lacking flavour

Huge menu, cheap prices - Edit
There is a huge menu with lots to choose from. I am not a fan of mock meats but they had both a range of mock meats and tofu/veg so it can suit all. Great price for the meal and the staff were nice. Meal itself could have contained more tofu (see noodles picture)
Read morePros: Huge menu, Staff friendly, Cheap
Cons: Lack of atmosphere

Huge vegan menu & very cheap - Edit
It's not the coziest place (kind of a cantine vibe, no music) but there's a lot of choice with a lot of vegetarian/ vegan meat replacements (vegan shrimp, vegan mock ham, tofu, gluten, gyoza's, literally everything!! There's Khmer food, rice, noodles, chinese food, burgers,.. and everything is so cheap ( - between $1,50 and $5)
Read moreDefinitely recommend!
Pros: Plantbased sources of protein
Cons: Not vibey place

Great option in PP! There’s a self service order system, a huuuge menu full of vegan options (it’s a vegetarian restaurant). The owner speaks good english. Came back a second time: so delicious!

Good value for money and clearly labelled vegan options - Edit
This is a vegetarian restaurant that has very clear vegan options. You order using a self-service system whereby you need to go through the menu and write down the number of what you want to order. Once you have written everything you want, you pay at the counter and the staff make your meal and give it to you. When you walk in, staff don't necessarily greet you. I had to find a menu and self-order.
Read moreThe menu is very long and detail with many different food options, and it is very clear what is vegan vs vegetarian. There are many vegetarian food options that can be made vegan upon request.

Huge menu. Really tasty food (we got the curry noodle and drumstick with fried noodle, both really good) but the portions are a bit small. The passion fruit soda and mango soda were really good too. Staff don’t speak much English but understood a peanut allergy

Really delicious veggie-vegan Khmer & Western dishes! - Edit
We ate here a couple times while we were in Phnom Penh - once to try the traditional Khmer dish, Lok Lak (made vegan) and once for burgers and fries! The menu is MASSIVE, with so many options, and everything vegan is clearly labelled. The service and ordering system is really easy, and the food is really wholesome and delicious.

Barely edible - Edit
My friend and I got soups. Mine was okay but my friend's was inedible. Dumplings were very ordinary and limpy. Menu was confusing and while the food was cheap, not worth it. I love cheap, tasty places but not here. They put zero effort into their food. You get what you pay for. Maybe we ordered the wrong things as other people seem to love it here, but I cannot recommend this place at all.
