Kilimandjaro

Kilimandjaro is a french food spot in Siem Reap that regulars come back to. The pull here is consistency more than novelty, which is exactly what you want when you are booking somewhere you have not tried.

On the menu

You will find french and healthy here. It sits at the upmarket end of the scale, so it works best for a treat or a special evening. The cooking is the draw rather than the setting, and the menu is broad enough that a mixed group will all find something.

The verdict so far

With 65 reviews and a 5.0 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

Siem Reap runs on the temples by day, so most kitchens fill up in the evening once people are back from Angkor.

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, Tue, 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.
