Beautiful

The interior, decor and attention to details was immaculate. I had a rice and bean salad of the brunch menu, was uninspired, went back another day, and had the tofu burger , that was much tastier.

Pros: interior, lots of choices

Nice environment, great service

The restaurant is beautifully designed and has a "garden", nice atmosphere. The service was very good, although there is a mandatory tip of 5% on the bill (I usually tip more, but I don't like mandatory tips). The food was just ok. The pad thai was not very authentic, lacking flavor. Dessert (banana chocolate ice cream) good. Overall, the prices are very affordable.

Great place for vegan options

Great food and great atmosphere. Loved the garden. The mix of western and Asian dishes is really helpful when you want to try different things.

Solid good food

The food is pretty good and our portion size where pretty good. I had the Khmer curry and I thought it was good, but not the best in my opinion. I found it a little bland. I think if you would like to eat something like curry or amok you can find this cheaper and maybe better at another place. If you would like to try something special like the fermented tofu go there.

Great to eat authentic food

We loved that we could eat vegan versions of local food. We sat outside in the garden which was lovely and only a short walk to the hustle and bustle

Pros: Choice of food, Quality

Impressed

The banh mi was a 10 , nothing like a banhmi, but loaded with protein, and really tasty. Nice side salad with good dressing. Fermented soy dip dish, soy was tasty came with a bunch of raw vegetables to dip in soy. Raw eggplant didn't really do it for me. But was otherwise good value, with a good amount of protein.

Lovely experience

Extensive menu with many Cambodian dishes that I haven’t seen else here. I tried the Khmer Pratok Ktis which is a fermented tofu dish. A similar taste to blue cheese with an Asian twist. I enjoyed it.
The vegan brownie was a bit dry though. Lovely space and friendly staff. Would love to come back and try some other dishes on their menu.

Fine dining for a cheap price

Went there twice cause their outside seating is a quiet green paradise, the staff is freindly and the food is delicious! You can try khmer feed like curry amok and lotus roots. Very recommend the tofu starters, but as main course - you get fully stuffed from it! Their portions are so huge! Their is a lovely ice cream stand in front of it, safe place for some delicious vegan ice cream on your way home😉

Pros: Taste, Huge portions, Beautiful outside area

Fine Dining for a dime | needs a bit more kick 🌶️🫚

The restaurant has a really nice flair with inside and outside seating. It's modern and the dishes are really appealing from the looks. Outstanding vegan selection.

The prices are quite fair and in my opinion on the lower end for the quality delivered.

🍛 Traditional Khmer Curry with rice (4$)
🍛 Traditional Khmer Amok with rice (4$)

- Both appealing and fresh. A bit blunt from the taste in my personal opinion. Wouldn't order again

🍫 Vegan Chocolate Brownie (4$)
Absolutely delicious

🍵 Delicious infused hot tea available

Pros: Fair prices , Outstanding vegan options , Appealing food presentation and lovely staff

Cons: Personal opinion: Bit blunt food

meeting point for herbivores 🌱

I didn't expect to find a vegetarian restaurant in Siem Reap with so many great vegan options. They even offer typical Cambodian food as a plant-based variation. I like how the menu card is subdivided.
Great service and very good food!

Pros: everything is vegetarian oder even vegan, many clearly labeled vegan choices

Lovely spot, disappointing food

This restaurant has a lovely outside seating area and staff are friendly. We might have been unlucky with our meal choices but we were disappointed by the food. the sweet and sour tofu was pretty bland (though very generous portion of tofu) and the fermented tofu dish came with lots of raw aubergine which is quite unpleasant to eat! We did however see otherdishes come out that looked very good.

Beautiful place with delicious food

I just had a soup because I didn’t feel good. The soup was very delicious. It was a big portion with rice. The menu offers a lot of different things (vegan and vegetarian). The stuff and the place is just amazing.

Nice but not super traditional

The food was decent but it felt like there was something missing. It’s definitely a westernised restaurant catering for tourists and expats which probably explains the food. Also a bit pricey in comparison to some other places but a nice place to stop for a meal.

Excellent tasting menu

Our VeganTravelAsia tour group was treated to a great vegan tasting menu from the chef.
- skewered (king oyster?) mushroom on papaya salad
- leek, seaweed, amok(?)
- gluten free “key lime pie” with strawberry coulis

Quite Nice!

I really like this place! today I had the ginger tofu (which was not fried) mixed with a few greens and a few beans, and came with rice for $2.5. Well worth it. Additionally, I had what seemed like a freshly pressed juice drink of celery, cabbage and ginger juices for $2.5. Really delicious and fresh tasting.

There's a garden adjacent where you can see a lot of veggies growing.

At the entrance/exit is a little ice cream place that has some great vegan ice cream!

Pros: Delicious! , I love that they mix greens in with the tofu, It's a really nice green space

Cons: not using the air conditioning , Kind of hot

Excellent

Our group enjoyed a tasting menu, which had perfectly sized portions of watermelon salad, lotus root ceviche, curry & rice, moringa soup and frozen lime pie. Nice cold drink too. All tasty, healthy and attractively presented.

My Favorite Cambodian Restaurant

Banlle provides high quality food in a romantic chill space. In terms of vegetarian options and food quality, this was my favorite dining experience in Cambodia.

Local dishes prepared freshly and with care. The prices are elevated compared to most restaurants, but the food and ambience are well worth it. Great for a date night / night out.

Great soothing setting in the middle of Siem Reap.

I chanced upon this gem while strolling through the streets of Siem Reap. Turns out the chef (Bola) is a Cambodian who spent time in my country (Jamaica), and picked up a few Patois phrases that had us bonding immediately! I came back a few times during my stay and enjoyed the meals and the welcoming, friendly wait staff. Here's a short video of my first meeting with the Bola and staff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iwJF3u76II

Pros: Friendly staff, Grow their own vegetables

Feels high-end without the high price. Amazing food.

Mostly vegan with lots of western and Cambodian options. Friendly staff and welcoming of children. I still can’t believe how cheap this place is given the smart decor, plating and service. Food was so good I forgot to take pictures. 🤷‍♂️

Beautiful food in a stunning setting

Really delicious and beautifully presented Khmer and Western dishes, all veggie or vegan. The menu has loads of choices, and specific vegan sections. We visited twice, once to try Amok, and again for dinner where we tried their vegan fish and chips. Both were really delicious, and the setting is really tranquil - we were really impressed!
