Excellent Vegan Options! - Edit
This place was recommended to me by a friend in Cambodia and it is excellent for vegan options! Wide selection from starters/Mains/Desserts! All the food we had was excellent and freshly made. The staff are extremely friendly also! The inside of the restraunt was stunning also! Well worth taking a short Tuk Tuk to get to! Highly recommended!

Great experience - Edit
Came here for lunch, surprisingly we were the only guests. We tried the Element Amok, the Cambodian Red Curry and the dumplings. It was all delicious, however flavour-wise the curry was at the top by far. We also had a lovely conversation with the staff. 🥰

Greasy vegan fish with no salt - Edit
The vegan fish and eggplant dishes were swimming in grease with no salt added. The fries were lacklustre at best.

Wow. Perfect and tasty food - Edit
We had a realy good expirience here.
Read moreThe restaurant is on the higher price side but the service is very good, the restaurant is very clean and has a nice style so we think it's accurate.
The food had so much flavor. It was so tasty.
we came here twice and had the vegan fish and chips (the fish is made from jackfruit and was very good), the ginger tofu was so tasty and also the amok and creamy dumplings were good.
if you go, we really can recommend the desserts, so delicious!

Must Try - Edit
Had a 3 course meal with a beer for £13.70…!!! The staff are all so friendly and attentive. The food is amazing with so many unique flavours. I’ve never had “battered cod” made from Jackfruit but it really works. And paired with the tartare sauce, it’s just a winning combo

I had tasty meal at Element during my stay in Phnom Penh. The highlight of the meal would have been the chocolate cake with coconut ice cream on top. The portion size was perfect for an individual, not too heavy. Highly recommend it!

A lovely restaurant on a quiet street - Edit
I came to element after reading all the positive reviews. I would say that it does truly live up to the reviews - the staff are super attentive and friendly, the food (I tried the sharing platter) was very nice and all-in-all, a worthwhile place to visit. I would say it lost a star for me (and again this could just be from what I ordered) due to the stodginess of the “fish” bites, and there was one sauce I didn’t like. I would definitely return here and try the dessert and some of the main dishes!

More upmarket place with super friendly staff. The food was nice enough although not as good as cheaper places we have tried in Phnom Penh. The crème brûlée was particularly good though.

Fine vegan dining - Edit
Orders the amok and creamy dumplings. Both enjoyed our dishes. Finished with creme brûlée which was a 3/5. Good crunchy top but the bulk was a bit tasteless after that.
Read morePros: Fine dining if that’s what you want

The vegan creme brûlée!!!! - Edit
Loved the vibe, the staff were so kind and our food was served quickly. We ordered the spring rolls to start and they were really really good, they're very big so you only need one serving for 3-4 people. Our mains were lacking in flavour, no one on the table could finish theirs. We all ordered dessert, the chocolate cake, ice cream and creme brûlée and everyone finished that pretty quickly. Wow, that vegan creme brûlée?! Coming back for that asap. Drinks were also delicious.
Read morePros: Lovely staff & clearly labelled vegan items, Great dessert , Good location

Decent Vegan - Edit
We had the three dips to start. Ok but not inspiring. Followed by burger- good and nice fries and salad and noodle soup which my guest enjoyed. We should have ordered a bottle of the very reasonable red as we had 6 glasses between us although why Cambodia insists on serving red wine cold, is beyond me. ( ok with new fresh wines but not so much with bodied clarets). Wait staff were polite and attentive but the place was almost empty on a Tuesday night. They also stayed open a little late so we could finish our wine. #Veganuary
