Brilliant cheap eatery with good food - Edit
This is a Chinese vegetarian (so mock meats are in everything) eatery in an unpretentious concrete room just off the street. We walked past it a few times a bit lost as to where it was, so read the review that stated that it's opposite the DAP shop, by the street corner. We ordered a number of dishes from the menu and found them absolutely delicious. We were struggling to finish our food as our eyes were definitely bigger than our bellies. But for $7 plus drinks for two people was incredible for the amount of food we put away. It's not far away from our hotel, so if we are having a lazy day tomorrow, you'll see us back there in a flash.

Food made me sick - Edit
I was there early morning. The basil fried rice tasted oily, some of the rice was clumped like it was old. Stupid me continued to eat it and I've been sick now for two days. There were also flies all over the place. It took a lot of my time keeping them off my plate.

Authentisch und gut - Edit
Das kleine Restaurant versprüht ein wenig den Charme einer Garage, ganz einfache Ausstattung aber tolles, ausschliesslich vegetarisches Essen zu super günstigen Preisen. Ich hatte die leckersten und knusprigsten Frühlingsrollen meines Lebens und Reis mit falschem Hühnchen. In Siem Reap bislang mein bestes Essen.

Great option for travellers! - Edit
Simple place with delicious food. My husband and I went back many times as we had many options to choose from and it never disappointed. Also it was a well-sized portion and prices were super cheap, if you're travelling on a tight budget this is the perfect place (we never spent more than 5 dollars in total)! They give you a glass of water for free (just remember to ask for no straws, as they use plastic ones) and if you want to have a beer for example you can buy it on a 7 eleven next door and drink it there. We totally recommend it!

Dum nia restado en Simrip-urbo ni du- aŭ tri-foje manĝis en la restoracio Kang Le, kie la manĝaĵo estis bongusta. La juna filo tre bone parolas la anglan.

Cheap, tasty, and veg meats. - Edit
Our meal was more than fine and also tasty. We ordered spring rolls, basil fried rice, and a large wonton’ish soup. All the dishes had a ton of fresh herbs. Also, the mock meats and fillings were fresh and good. They don’t serve beer but they allow you buy some next door and bring it in.
Read morePros: Tasty food and veg friendly , Cheap prices. Two people can get in and out $5, You can buy beer at 7-11 and bring it in to drink

Nice lovely food freshly prepared on the spot for you.
Read moreDishes are extremely cheap, everything cost around $1.5 per main dish
Locals go there and some tourist also. The son speak very good English and is always happy to help.
The place is very basic and doesn’t look like a restaurant but if you don’t mind that then go and have some lovely food!
The chicken drumsticks are really nice! And vegan!

Not quite sure.... - Edit
We dined there the other day as the reviews seemed supportive. It is quite basic, and definitely one for the locals. We ordered a noodle-based meal to share. Something didn't seem right about it, but we persevered, not quite finishing the meal. Later, one of us became ill. There may have been no connection with the food, but we suspect there might have been. It clearly advertises itself as vegetarian, but we're not sure that's entirely true.

Good place for eating - Edit
Nice and cheap local veg restaurant. Not a fancy tourists oriented place. If you want to try local food it's a right place. Owners are friendly and speak English, English menue. It's open all the time by the only exception of late night.

very cheap Khmer style food - Edit
Kang Le Restaurant is a family run Cambodian style cafe ... the food is cooked after you order from the menu (which includes English names for the dishes) ... while food portions are Cambodian style (small) they are so cheap you can order additional food if you are still hungry ... limited English spoken by the adults however the son of the owner learns English at school ... I had a tasted vegetarian chicken and steamed rice (US$1.50)

Amazing food! - Edit
Me and my girlfriend visited Siem Reap during Khmer New Year so unfortunately we only managed to go to Kang Le once. The food was soo good and probably the cheapest (for vegans ) in Siem Reap. Although not every meal is vegan there are a lot of options available. When you are not sure just ask for ingredients e.g. egg, milk etc.

Kang Le Restaurant, Siem Reap - Edit
This is an inexpensive locally managed vegetarian place of around 20 dishes on the menu. It's very centred on rice, noodles and mock meat. There's writing there in Chinese as well as English so possibly under Chinese / Khmer management. Vegans should always ask what is suitable (use the Vegan passport).
Read moreA cheap place to go if you are near Wat Damnak. Otherwise I respectfully don't feel it's worth making a trip for with so much egg and mock meat. A greater proportion and wider choice of vegetables in the menu would be better rather than so much rice, noodles, mock meat and egg.

Pros: Inexpensive

Hi Stevie, looking at the first sentence of your review, perhaps 'inexpensive' was meant? Beyond that, I'm largely in agreement!

Basic but cheap - Edit
This is the kind of no frills, very cheap veg restaurant that I haven't found much of in Cambodia, and for that reason I was pleased to discover a place where you could order an ok main for between one dollar and one dollar fifty.
Read moreA good place for those on a budget or those wishing to escape the bright neon of Siem Reap's pub street.
Pros: cheap, English menu
Cons: average food
Stevie
Hi Al,
Read moreThanks for pointing out the typo in my review. It's now fixed.
Did you find this place easy enough? When I submitted the listing there didn't seem to be a street name. Hence I suggested finding it based on a GPS map marker. Please let me know if any of that info was sub-standard.
Thanks for all your help.
Keep well, Stevie
