Really enjoyed our meal at Haven. Delicious food and excellent service. Brilliant social enterprise supporting local people. Highly recommend.
First let me start with the positives, the setting outside in the garden is absolutely beautiful! You are received with a warm welcome by a woman who I suppose is the owner. Service is attentive.
Prices are a little bit on the high end. Let me explain what I mean by this: If value were good, I wouldn't might paying twice as much. However, for the fancy price they don't accept credit card (unheard of for a resto of this calibre), WiFi is terrible, wine was poor and glass not filled to the right "breathing" level, and dish was tasty enough but simple, nothing elaborate.
Our experience in Heaven was very positive. We loved the food. It was the best Fish Amok we tried. The rice dumplings were also very good and a big portion. The ambience is nice and the service was very good. So if you are in Siem Reap, make sure you check it out. It is totally worth it!
Always booked for a good reason, a gem in Siem Reap excellent food, and the only place where you see that training by experts in a business environment pays off. Highly recommended. Good Swiss food too!
Amazing place, wonderful food and an even more profound background and cause of this heavenly restaurant aka HAVEN. Inspirational story in order to contribute to a better future for Cambodian young people.
Keep doing what you are doing. If there were just more people like you in this world, we could all live in HAVEN😊😍
The place looks good and the food is great! Feels nice to support a establishment that helps provides training and support to the locals. Definitely make the reservations ahead if you going for dinner as they are always full. Lunch here is pleasant and relaxing with the al fresco dining. Happy to recommend folks the place!!
Very friendly staff and really tasty food. I had the traditional vegan curry which was delicious. The ambiance is nice too, in a shaded court yard.
Great eatery with a touch of soul. The owners take pride in training their staff and providing opportunity to locals, ensuring they have jobs and skills that will allow them to build a career. The food and service is sensational, and at less than $10 a meal, a bargain!
Haven met and then surpassed our expectations. We felt welcome from the moment we walked in. The staff were personable, attentive and helpful and the food was delicious. We will definitely go back before we fly home. Best meal I have had in a long time.
Great idea and great food! Definitely worth a visit to support the local kids
Amazing restaurant! Progressive concept with realistic goals in mind for the future of Cambodian youths. Proud to eat here and enjoy amazing authentic food!
One of the best meals I've had this year. All of the staff at Haven were friendly and welcoming. They were attentive without hovering too much. The food was excellent, extraordinary, and amazing. Perfect flavours and cooking. From the starter down to the dessert. This meal was flawless. The idea of the restaurant is wonderful, training people to become hospitality staff and earn incomes is a great thing to do. If you're in Siem Reap and looking for a fabulous meal and evening then stop by Haven.
Great food, we tried chicken cashew nuts and fish filet in mango salad. Both delicious. Very friendly personnel. Fast service. Highly recommended
We had a delicious traditional meal at Haven! The menu had tons of vegetarian and vegan options, and everything we ordered was great. We loved the ambiance and overall mission of the restaurant. Would certainly go back!
We had a wonderful meal here during our five days in Siem Reap. Sat on the balcony of the old wood house. A charming space. These underprivileged kids really put a lot of thoughtful care and effort into our meal, and our server made a special effort to understand our special request and delivered as promised. The fish topped with shredded mango was superb. Wine, calamari and pork schnitzel also very good. Kudos and thank you to the management and entire staff!
Fantastic concept. The restaurant is used too train disadvantaged Cambodian youths to work in restaurants. So by eating there you help the education of these people. The staff/trainees were very friendly and outdid themselves to serve you in the most professional way.
Oh, and the food is good too!
Go there!
Whether you are looking for traditional Cambodian dishes, or other international dishes that might be more of a "close to home comfort food," the dishes at Haven are heavenly. The wait staff is super kind and polite. Service is fabulous. The owners are also often there and will stop by your table to say hi. The owners are bringing in Cambodian youth who are underprivileged and at-risk, and they teach them over a year about how to run a restaurant. Super sweet restaurant all around. My favorite in Cambodia.
The food was excellent, the prices were reasonable, and the atmosphere was nice and casual. The banana flower salad was especially good. I love how they give back to the community (sponsoring training for local young adults in need).
This was my best dining experience in Siem Reap and maybe in Cambodia! All the way from starters, to the main course and to desert, it was just a perfect!
In each dish you could taste all the different ingredients! The fresh spring rolls were to die for. And it was probably the best veggie burger I ever had! The ginger and sesame ice cream and the sorbet killed it!
And on top of all the goodness, the restaurant works for a good cause.
I highly recommend a visit, a reservation is recommended.
Great vibes and ambience. The staff are friendly and genuine. The fact they are transparent about their mission is awesome and will get you on board. On top of all that the food tastes great. Well done guys and girls!
The food was very tasty and the staff very friendly! Furthermore, we enjoyed the jungle looking location. We went on a Monday and it was packed. We were lucky to find a table without reservation. However, I advice you to make a reservation in advance. Totally worth it!!
Oh god.. so so good. Everyone was so friendly and made me feel really welcome. The food was heavenly good and so was my fruit drink.
If I had time I would definitely come back.. but since I don't have more time
I can only recommend you going here.
I went for lunch so it wasn't too busy.
Really such a great place!
