Ok - Edit
We had some food for take away, which was good and cheap (between 2 and 2,75$ per dish), but nothing special.

Oh god. Awful. - Edit
I ordered a mini hot pot, it tasted like melted plastic, the flavour is still in my mouth half an hour later. It was full of highly processed Chinese mock meats which weren't good. Ordered a fresh passion fruit juice which turned out to be cordial with a couple of passion fruit seeds in.

Our favorite vegetarian restaurant in Phnom Penh - Edit
This restaurant is one of the best vegetarian restaurants, we've been to in SE-Asia. They have such a huuuuuge menu with a giant variety of food to very reasonable prices. We were there two days in a row and happy with all the dishes we ordered. The staff is very friendly and speaks quite good English. The service was fast and we were offered cold tea for free. My favourite was definitely the vegan fried steak either with noodles or rice - both kinds were delicious! My boyfriend tried a burger which was also very good. We would really totally recommend this restaurant! :)

Great value, so many choices! - Edit
This cosy café was the cheapest place we've been to in Phnom Penh in regards to dining out. The value for money is really good too, we were extremely full from our meal and the lovely staff running it even gave us a large portion of the fried mushroom steak for the price of the small one. Amazing! We had the Black Pepper Fried Steak a la carte, the Mushroom Fried Steak (our favourite)a la carte, the Hokkien Noodles and the Mixed Vegetables with Tofu, Veggie Ham and rice a drink each and it worked out to be $11. A bargain for the amount of food we received! The fried steaks were decadent and delicious - a naughty treat, really! The mushroom one was our favourite, highly recommend this (and it was actually recommended by the gentleman who works there), and all other dishes were yummy. Great value, friendly and helpful staff, yummy dishes. Giving a 4* because it wasn't the cleanest of places we've been to.

Okay food - Edit
Budget-friendly place with a MASSIVE menu, the food ranged from really good (the burger) to okay (black pepper stir fry, dumplings, pineapple fried rice) to horrible (french fries, which came out 15 minutes after the burger and were extremely undercooked).
Read moreVegan options are labelled but you need to be careful as some have the “vegan” stamp and some say “can be”’ next to it which is easy to miss.
Also be mindful of your change as I realised afterwards I was shortchanged US$5 on one visit, my fault for not checking - we had just arrived in Cambodia that day and I hadn’t got my head around the USD/ KHR conversions yet.
Pros: affordable, lots of options, some items pretty good
Cons: raw french fries

Must do - Edit
Food is delicious. We went 3 times to the restaurant and everything was perfect (the hot pot, burgers, dumpling soup, fried rice, spicy tomato soup (really spicy!), smoothie, fresh juice, tea and the wheel cakes with different flavors as dessert.)

Huge menu! Great Burgers. - Edit
Can’t comment on the local food as we only had burgers but they were great. The menu is HUGE and it’s super cheap. Good if you’re staying in the area and want to grab something quick.

So much choice - Edit
Huge menu with lots of clearly marked vegan options. Almost too much choice! Had the fried steak, Chinese nutrition soup and fried tofu, all were delicious. A little pricier than the veggie place next door ($2 - $4 a dish instead of $1-2) but worth it for the variety, flavour and portion size.

Huge menu! - Edit
Lots of choice here for vegans. Takes a while to read through the whole menu! Burger was decent, the better of the two I've had in Asia. The mushroom curry was good too, but not amazing. Good prices.

Lots of vegan options, local food - Edit
This small place offers so much vegan options which is really hard to decide. I go for veggie hokkien noodle soup and loved it. They also have different types of rice, fried noodles, burgers, pizzas and smoothies. Very good and tasty food with inexpensive price. Must try.

Yum! - Edit
Nice looking cafe and clean.
Read moreStaff were super lovely, not a heap of vegan options but the man was really accommodating and spent 5 minutes or so discussing with kitchen staff to make my meal vegan.
I had the crispy noodles with salad and vege spring rolls. Was pretty tasty and decent serve, took a while for food to come out so don't go if your in a hurry but over all very pleased :)
Pros: Staff, Nice size meals, Comfortable atmosphere
Cons: Time it took for food to be served

Cheap and yummy - Edit
I had a delish ‘steak’ burger with fries and a drink for only $3.25! I requested no egg but I think it was lost in translation so if you want to make a special requirement double check they understand. Other than that the service and food was great. Lots of the meal options can be made vegan.

Mostly vegan, huge menu - Edit
I ordered the veggie steak burger with no egg or mayo, half expecting it to be dry af but it was actually flavoursome, moist and delicious. The patty was deep fried, and they had replaced the egg with a vegan tofu egg. Also contained a lettuce and carrot salad in sauce. Price was decent, $3.50 incl soft drink and fries. The fries were a bit of let down, they just seemed kinda... dirty. Like the oil hadn’t been changed in a while or something. Overall it was good, I’d go there again. The menu is huge and also has pictures and English translations

Cheap, delicious vegan food! - Edit
Great vegetarian and vegan food! As a traveling vegan, I really appreciated vegan options being clearly labeled on the menu. We ate here daily (sometimes twice) for our 4 days in Phnom Penh. Each item is $1-2.25. we found that ordering 2 mains each left us satisfied and full. Our favorites we're the black pepper vegan burger, mushroom fried noodle, and veggie noodle soup. They even have vegan milk teas. To order, you were down each meal number you want and then pay in advance. Definitely recommend!

Adequate standard cuisine, big portions - Edit
Again pretty good value for money, but after sampling quite a few veggie places here offering the same range of stuff, this is pretty standard fare and not the best.
Read moreOn the plus side, the portions were rather large. After ordering 4 dishes between us, we had to leave some behind. The fried dumplings were a bit dry and like European pastry, but it was a huge plate of them.
There were some fake chicken drum sticks, normally I'm a big fan of these, but something was off in the texture and I couldn't eat them.
Also ordered a dish of noodles with fake meat and not very impressive. In fact we tried to offer our left overs to a beggar that came in, but she refused.
Pros: good value for money, large portions
Cons: very standard cuisine common to area

Braised gluten xx - Edit
Small place with a huge menu of Khmer/Chinese food. Lots of variation on noodles, rice, soups, hot pot, some western food, with veg and mock meat.
Read moreVegan food, or those with vegan options, are clearly labelled.
The braised gluten (we tried in soup, with steamed rice, and with fried noodles) was one of the nicest things we've ever eaten - even my omnivore boyfriend insisted we go back so he could eat more! Vegan dumplings are also good, thick pastry, more like a pasty (in a good way!!)
Most meals are 2-3 dollars, so you can afford to get some side dishes too ;)
Pros: Braised gluten, Huge selection with vegan marked on menu, Cheap

Dumpling soup is great.
Lots of fake meat for the one who like it.
Pros: cheap, good taste
