Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I love that the restaurant also helps the community. The food was original and very good. The staff were helpful and gave great service. We liked it so much we ate there twice.

We were lucky to get a table to this recommended restaurant. Having not been before we did not know what to expect… but we had beautifully executed food, served by attentive staff (even though they had two big group bookings in)! Top it off with...a restaurant with a conscience that supports Cambodian children only made it that bit better!More

We had a delicious dinner here during our stay in Battambang. The eggplant and mushroom dumplings and jackfruit bao were to die for. The banana flower chicken and green pepper prawns were delicious. Thank goodness we still had room for dessert because the flourless chocolate...cake was amazing! Unfortunately the chef was not willing to part with his recipe for the cake! Maybe one day I can come back for more. The staff were very attentive and we enjoyed our chat with our waitress who is studying hard for her future. We wish her well. Thank you Jaan Bai for a lovely evening. Highly recommended.More

Amazing restaurant. Best meal we’ve had in Cambodia so far! Staff are local children being trained in hospitality and have wonderful skills; their spoken English was excellent. The wine list was impressive. It’s a must visit.

We were recommended this restaurant by our tour guide but it was very disappointing. Service and food were both poor. They weren’t very busy so not sure what went wrong

No I did not eat crocodile tail, but they did make a delicious cocktail by this name. Service was great, food was delicious. Got the fish amok, beef and Kampot pepper, Thai green chicken curry and a brown rice, all very tasty and affordable. Totally...worth the visit and I will return.More

Outstanding meal and great atmosphere! Highly recommended. One of our favorites in Battambang. A perfect evening in Battambang is a dinner here followed by cocktails just a few doors down at Ms. Wong Cocktail Bar!

We ate here twice . The food is amazing. It’s all really fresh and interesting with a modern spin on traditional dishes. . It’s also beautifully presented. Wines by the glass also decent. Great staff and a great cause. Don’t miss.
