If there's a rush, it might be awhile before they take your order because they only take a few at a time. Try to call and order ahead if possible! Prices are reasonable. Mama wings - nothing crazy about it. Good flavour, crispy! Steak Prahok - ordered medium rare, but it came out medium. it was still very good, especially the sauce that comes with it. Garlic noodles - probably the best garlic noodles I've had, highly recommend! Steak larb - super punchy flavour, but a little spicy for my taste. tried to ask for mild but was told it only comes medium. still ordered it because it's really good!

Been coming here for years before they relocated their Oakland Chinatown location here…read more The food here is consistently fabulous! The 528 (deep fried chicken wings), 317 (spinach with beef), 424 (eggplant with shrimp and pork), 746 (duck curry) are our favorites. Decided to try something new so we got the 745 (fish curry) and 855 (vegetarian duck with vermicelli)-which were both great as well! Perfect to polish off dinner with fried banana ice cream. The owner is also very nice and customer service here is always excellent! They do tend to get busy and there can be a wait during popular times, so be prepared to possibly wait. Even on a Tuesday afternoon, they can be packed!

Dry Noodle - rice noodle, shrimp, pork three ways, crispy garlic, cilantro, scallions, sweet soy dressing - Originally wanted to the soup but it was so hot out. This dry noodle was a great way to still try it because broth came on the side as a small bowl. SO much flavor. Citrusy, savory, aromatic, umami Dining here almost feels like a street food dining experience. It's casual, unpretentious, and delicious.

(I started a draft review of this spot in 2023, and went back in June 2025...) The one auntie there remembered me - it helps that I walked in 2-3 times in one week - and my order. My order, you ask? Somlor machu kreung (kreung sour soup), made with prahok, the best ingredient on earth. Oh, and white rice and a small bowl of fresh bird's eye chilis. A filling lunch or dinner, I recommend pairing it with a Heineken. There's seating for a crowd. Planning to bring a crowd? Call to reserve a table. Credit accepted.

Ambiance - 5/5 From the outside, the restaurant looks pretty…read moresimple, but once you walk inside, you can immediately feel the culture and personality of the place. I really loved the interior design. Everything was clean and well put together. The restaurant had a smaller, cozy feeling but still felt spacious enough to sit down and enjoy a meal. My favorite parts were the cultural decorations and paintings throughout the restaurant. Little details like that made the experience feel more authentic. Even the cashier area was beautifully designed and added to the overall atmosphere. Customer Service - 5/5 The service was very good. The server was extremely welcoming and friendly -- I believe she might have been the owner. She greeted us with a beautiful smile and created a warm environment that made the whole dining experience even better. Small interactions like that make a restaurant feel more personal and memorable. Food - 5/5 Dish Ordered: Trei Chlaing Chein Kroeung (Pan Fried Catfish) 5/5 My first time trying Cambodian food, and honestly this was an amazing introduction to the cuisine. This was one of the best fish dishes I have ever had. The fish was cooked perfectly -- crispy golden skin on the outside while staying incredibly tender and flavorful on the inside. The sauce was what brought everything together. It was light with the perfect consistency, not too thick and not too heavy. You could taste the lemon coming through, adding the right amount of freshness and kick. There was a little spice, but not the kind that takes over the dish. It created a wonderful balance where every flavor complemented each other. The combination of the fish, sauce, citrus, and seasoning was simple but executed perfectly. Every bite made me want to keep eating. It was honestly delicious. Would I Order Again: 100% Yes. This is easily a dish I would come back for. No surprise this restaurant was previously Michelin recommended -- you can taste the quality and care behind the cooking. Additional Comment: I've always struggled with the idea that eating healthy means sacrificing flavor. A lot of healthier foods like salads can sometimes feel unsatisfying, but this dish reminded me that food can be both healthy and incredibly delicious when done right. I have passed by this restaurant ever since I was young, and it's amazing to see that it's still here after all these years. Seeing a restaurant with food this good not filled with customers honestly feels like a shame. Great food deserves to be discovered, shared, and supported. From the welcoming service, beautiful cultural atmosphere, and unforgettable food, this was an incredible first experience with Cambodian cuisine. I will definitely be back. This is the kind of restaurant you hope stays around for many more years.

This cafe seems to be mostly women operated from the waitress' & chef & preparation crew. I appreciate the nicely decorated & remolded interior. This setting gives a nice warm & inviting atmosphere. Appetizer: #6 Sai Ooa(1 Lao sausage) $5.50- grilled pork, garlic,onion,lemongrass,Thai chili & lemon leaves. By popular consensus we orders this & we were not disappointed. Although to me it felt like it was fried not grilled, nonetheless still addictively delicious. #9 Nam Khao $14.95 deep fried rice bits w/mixed gd.pork,coconut,gd , fermented pork, cilantro, gd.onion in a special sauce then they serve it w/a basket full of lettuce leaves & cilant Orders: -Mok Pa $9 (steamed fish)-catfish nugget, lemongrass, dill,onion,garlic,egg,kaffir leaves w/Lao sauce cooked in a leaf. This dish is easily eaten w/a spoon bc it is very soft & scoopable. I thought this paired better w/the lettuce leaf & cilantro. This was a very aromatic lemongrass & kaffir leaf infused dish. I really enjoyed it. Dessert: -Fried Banana w/Ice Cream $7.50- the perfectly fried banana without a mushy interior was addictively delicious & to balance the warmth of the banana you can dip it in vanilla ice cream. Absolutely worth the treat! Look forward to returning to a clean, modern, family run restaurant in Oakland. With so many new dishes I've never seen, it was hard to choose

The tom yum soup was just the right balance of seasonings, and had a lot of "toppings" inside. Service was decent! The servers are pretty attentive and the wait for food isn't too long.

Don't come here if you can't do the long wait for amazing food. The people running this are nice but there are only 3 of them serving everyone so be patient and you will be rewarded with the best plate of food you've had in a while.

Beef skewers 3.8/5, good but nothing to brag home about or drive out the way for. Garlic noodles 2/5, overcooked soggy noodles w/ fake butter and garlic, not worth the calories or carb consumption. Shrimp 3.5/5, hot and crispy, crack sauce was mid. Needed more lime. 2 bites and was done. Gave it to a homeless person nearby. Service - Friendly. Wait time was 25-30 min. They need to revamp their menu/food photos. Pretty bad quality and size. If you park on the side road, they will bring it to your car. Not sure why the wait is long, the only thing piping hot was the shrimp. Everything else was just warm. Ambiance - Mural was beautiful. VERY DIRTY picnic table and benches, loud music, and across the street from the bart station. I had high hopes for this place especially it being family owned, but the influencers must be getting free food or something to hype this up because this was not it. There's so many better options in Oak. Sorry won't be back.
