Yummy Khmer Food!

Went here for dinner, and was surprised by how easy it was to find (there’s a sign on the main street) and was happy with the choices of food and the quality of the food. Starters (fried veggie rolls and the sweet corn fritters) were delicious, and the curries we tried were also good.

Pros: Khmer-inspired food, Peaceful atmosphere

Yummy Jackfruit curry!

I had the jackfruit and sweet potato curry, very tasty and fragrant! Good spot with plenty vegan options in Phnom Penh

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good selection of wines, Great location and staff

Cons: Meat options even though it’s a “veggie” resto

All good except the plastic straws...

I really liked the foods, especially the vegan Amok but I felt bad when I saw them use unnecessary plastic straws... I hope they can change it to the reusable straws soon😄

Pros: Good vegan Khmer foods

Cons: Plastic straws

Lovely!

I tried my first Amok here (a traditional Khmer curry that is usually with chicken or fish) and their vegetarian version was delicious. A lot of their dishes are served with black rice which was really nice. The staff was so friendly and it was really close to the Independent monument just tucked away down a side street.

Great place

Really good food here, almost everything is vegan on the menu as well! I had the banana tofu curry, and whilst I’m not entirely sure on whether I liked banana in a curry (personal preference I guess) or not, it was very tasty. Had the spring rolls as an entry as well, and they were good. Very decent filling.

It is a bit pricey compared to other places, but food is cooked fresh, and the restaurant is in a lovely place. Staff are incredibly nice as well!

Pros: Loads of vegan choices , Good food

Cons: Serves meat, A tad expensive

Hidden Away

Little gem hidden away off the busy streets in Phnom Penh. The food was tasty, well priced and the service was good. No complaints!

Delicious!!

I love eating black rice so I love going to the Corn. Their Char Kroeung is delicious and so is the banana coconut curry. I only wish they didn't offer to add meat to the dishes and were fully vegan as their food is truly delicious

Originele curries

Er staan verschillende originele en heerlijke curries op de kaart. Bijvoorbeeld de bananencurry en de curry met jackfruit. Leuk ingericht restaurant en fijne sfeer. Standaard wordt gratis water geserveerd; goed voor het milieu. Zit in een klein steegje maar is goed aangegeven vanaf de hoofdweg.

Deserved 5 stars!

We couldn’t give 5 stars due to theHappyCow rating settings but it definitely deserved it. The Tom Yum was sensational, fresh spring rolls very tasty, (dipping sauce a highlight), and the banana and sweet potato curry also had exceptional flavours - all vegan. Very pleased we chose to eat here on our last night in Phnom Penh and would recommend highly!

Really flavourful and delicious local food. We had the corn fritters, amok, and tofu and banana curry. Also had a cocktail each which were well made. More of a veg restaurant with meat options. The owners are very nice people as well. Would recommend.

delicious food

Definitely worth checking out! Food was super tasty, fresh and well balanced. Plenty of vegan options, almost entirely eg except for a couple fish options. The black rice is also delish and complimentary with your meal. I had fresh spring rolls and banana tofu curry and both were good.

flavourful and rich food

Very tasty and flavourful food, we loved it there. That is the difference between a vegatarian Restaurant, that also serves meat, and a common Restaurant that offers some vegetarian options. They really know how to get the best out of veggies.

Pros: tasty

Cons: pricy

Peaceful vegan dining

Lovely restaurant serving delicious Khmer cuisine. Vegan options clearly marked on the English language menu. Recommend the fresh rice paper rolls & green mango tofu salad. Restful ambience & bonus as pet dogs are welcome to enjoy dinner with their families.

Pros: Delicious food, Generous portions, Friendly staff

Delicious curry

I ordered the fresh springrolls and the pumpkin curry and it was really delicious. The complementary black rice is super tasty. The price was reasonable for the food, venue and service.
They also do delivery, so a good curry is never far away!

Hmmmmm

Was excited to eat at Corn based on the reviews. I had the corn fritters and green curry both Very OK but perhaps a bit bland. The place is well set up and I had a lovely balcony seat. Maybe Monday is not the day to go. Lovely location though so worth another try.

delicious

The Corn has many vegan dishes, marked properly with a "V".The vegetarian amok is also vegan, they just forgot the mark.We had a delicious jackfruit coconut curry and a tofu banana coconut curry, both served with black rice. The rice portions could be a little bit bigger.The owners are very nice and helpful people!

Pros: cozy, many vegan choices

tasty food in Phnom Penh

Had the vegan green curry and fresh rice paper rolls which were both delicious and full of flavour.
The vegan crepe with the chocolate sorbet ice cream was also fabulous.
Limited but tasty menu.

Pros: reasonable price ($5 main meals), friendly staff

The Corn :)

The Corn is literally next door to my hotel so I just had to try it out!

I ordered a lemon and mint shake and the Khmer Tom Yum which was accompanied with black rice. Both were excellent. The main dishes are all $5 and the starters range from between 2.50-3.50. Drinks are 2.50. It was very good value for money as everything tasted so fresh and lovingly prepared.

Next time I plan on getting the lentil fritters with the zuchinni salad... sounds delish!

Pros: Location, Rice Served with Main Dishes, Good Selection of Khmer Food

Cons: The drinks arrived after the food , Mosquitos as a lot of seats are outside

Great Khmer & Western veg/vegan food/drinks

Excellent veg, vegan, & non-vegan options. Western & Khmer. The veggie spring rolls & amok are great. Tried a few different curries and each was excellent. Curries have chicken, or tofu/veggies options. If you're going to add a drink to your meal, this is the place to do it. The frozen drinks are amazing, especially in the midst of Phnom Penh heat. Some unique drinks like corn whiskey freeze, and I cant remember exactly what the other one was, but i think it had basil & pineapple, maybe ginger. Friendly staff, excellent service.

Pros: Veg & non-veg curry options, Great value, Delicious drinks

Best vegan dishes in Phnom Penh

I had dinner here with my husband. The place is NOT difficult to find, as there is a big sign right at the beginning of its street. The menu is 90% vegan, with the possibility of adding meat or fish. We are vegan, so we ordered the vegan dishes. We had both fresh and fried spring rolls: so good! The sauces were perfect too. Then, a red curry with black rice, very tasty, not too spicy, you can taste the freshness of the veggies. We tried the char kroeung, extremely delicate. I could taste every single ingredient, fresh, good, healthy. Finally, the homemade VEGAN crepe with VEGAN chocolate ice cream: yummy and very light. A great dinner, the best I had in Phnom Penh for sure. One of the best in South East Asia.

Pros: Very good vegan dishes, peaceful place and location , kind staff

accommodating special requests

Randomly stumbled upon this so it's definitely findable! Great menu selection of salads and curries. I couldn't pick between three salads and asked if I could have a pick and mix of ingredients - the waiter/chef agreed and didn't even charge me extra! So I had a lovely orangey tofu lentil salad :P

My partner had a curry and liked the the black rice that came with it. Said he "felt like an emperor" (as the menu explains, black rice used to be rare and eaten by emperors only).

Not as cheap as food in the rest of Cambodia but still easily affordable for a western tourist.

vegetarian - with non-vegetarian options

this restaurant falls into a category, which is rare and difficult to list and rate. it is a vegetarian restaurant, that offers non-vegetarian options. listing it as vegetarian friendly somehow doesn't do justice to the restaurant.

in other words: if you you expect an entirely meat-free zone, this restaurant is not for you. if your focus is on trying good and creative vegetarian food in a quite and nice place, and don't mind if maybe not everybody in the restaurant observes a vegetarian diet: try it!

get the latest menu or order online on: http://thecornphnompenh.com/menu/

Pros: quiet and nice place and location, no fast food items; real dishes, good and friendly service
