Kimly seafood Restaurant

Set in Kep, Kimly seafood Restaurant has become one of the neighbourhood's dependable seafood food stops. It is the kind of place you end up returning to rather than seeking out once, and it tends to stay busy without feeling rushed.

What to expect

Expect seafood, asian and cambodian on the menu. Prices are reasonable for the area. Dishes come out in generous, shareable sizes, so a table of three or four can order a spread and try a bit of everything.

How it rates

Diners have left it a 4.0 average from more than 1281 reviews, and the praise is consistent rather than a one-off spike. Ratings on their own do not tell you everything, but a score this steady over that many visits usually means you will get roughly what the last few hundred people got.

Where it sits

For context, Kep is tiny and quiet, and most meals here revolve around the crab market and the coast.

Getting there

Most visitors arrive by tuk-tuk or ride-hailing app. Use the map on this page rather than the street address, and allow a little extra time in the middle of the day when the heat slows everything down. If you are coming from the riverside or a central hotel it is a quick hop; from further out, factor in traffic at the start and end of the working day.

Planning a visit

Opening hours can shift, so it is worth checking before a long trip across town. Cambodian kitchens keep flexible hours around public holidays and quiet spells, so a quick call ahead is never wasted, especially for dinner. One to keep on the list for your next trip across town.
