My Soup House

My Soup House sits in Phnom Penh and draws a steady crowd of locals, expats and visitors. It is not chasing trends, and that is part of the appeal: you get a proper meal, a fair bill and staff who know the menu.

On the menu

You will find french, asian and fusion here. Prices are reasonable for the area. Come for a drink first and decide about food once you have a table; the kitchen keeps sensible hours around the bar.

The verdict so far

With 6 reviews and a 4.5 score, the feedback is steady and mostly about the food and the welcome. The reviews that stand out tend to mention the same two or three dishes and the service, which is a better signal than the number alone.

Around here

Phnom Penh is compact enough that you can pair this with a museum, a market or the riverfront in the same afternoon.

How to get there

Getting here is straightforward by tuk-tuk or a ride-hailing app; give the driver the name and the area rather than a street number, which is how most people navigate in Cambodia. Fares for a ride like this are low by most standards, and agreeing the price or using the app rate up front avoids the usual haggle at tourist-heavy spots.

Before you go

It opens on Mon, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun. Lunchtime and early evening are the safe windows; later in the night some places wind the kitchen down before the listed closing time. A solid option to have in your back pocket.
