HAVEN

Haven serves up a fantastic dining experience in every way--delicious food; lovely setting; relaxing ambiance; kind + capable staff members. My family and I loved our dinner at Haven so much, we ate lunch there the next day before flying out of Siem Reap! It was an easy walk from our hotel (Hillocks Hotel & Spa), which was very nice. We live in Portland, Oregon, so we know from incredible food--and Haven surpassed our wildest expectations. We especially loved the No-Fish Fillet with Green Mango. Instead of fish, the talented chef serves up lightly battered banana blossom that does the MOST AMAZING impersonation of a fish fillet. (Our 23yo vegetarian daughter started to question whether the dish really was fish-free!! hahaha) All the dishes we ordered and shared were flavorful, fresh, and exquisitely prepared and served. The couple who founded Haven are lovely people with big hearts, and it shows in all facets of the restaurant. We made reservations online for both our visits, but the restaurant wasn't crowded either time we ate there. Haven is truly heavenly--a must-visit in Siem Reap!

Absolutely amazing food, so good myself and my partner came back a second time! I think it's the best curry I've ever tasted! The concept behind the restaurant is fantastic and the owners are an inspiration! So inspiring that this is a training restaurant helping disadvantaged young adults learn lifelong skills they can carry with them. Knowing that you are contributing a small bit makes the food taste all the nicer 🥰 You have to try!!! 1000%

Great place for our family meal. Attended as a family of six (6). Quick efficient service. Quality and quantity of food was very good. Family had orange chicken, chicken schnitzel , squid, Caesar salad and of course drinks. Everything wa delicious.

We really enjoyed dining here. Owner/manager is incredibly attentive and pleasant. Service is also great and makes the whole experience great. Food was delicious as well and they have some nice choice of local non alcoholic drinks as well- we enjoyed that too! We were lucky to get the table without reservation, many coming few minutes after us did not get the spot so if possible, reserve in advance

Haven is one of those rare places where you leave feeling happy both in your heart and your stomach. The concept behind this restaurant—supporting underprivileged adults by providing them with training and employment—makes dining here even more meaningful. It honestly felt great to help others while doing one of our favorite activities… eating. If only all good deeds came with dessert, right? 😉 The location itself is absolutely beautiful. The atmosphere is romantic, elegant, and slightly fancy without ever feeling intimidating. Perfect for a date night or a special evening. The staff were incredibly welcoming, kind, and transparent, explaining everything clearly from the moment we arrived. A huge plus for me: the menu is extremely clear about allergens. As someone with multiple food allergies, this is not just convenient—it’s essential. The team took my allergies and cross-contamination risks very seriously, which made me feel genuinely safe and cared for. Now, the food… out of this world. Truly. The fish fillet with mango was an absolute standout—beautifully balanced, creative, and honestly Michelin-worthy. If this restaurant doesn’t already have a Michelin star, it is definitely on its way. We also had the beef lok lak, which was one of the best we’ve had in Cambodia so far—perfectly cooked, flavorful, and comforting. And then… the Oreo cheesecake. Wow. Just wow. One of those desserts you keep thinking about after you leave. Overall experience: 9.5/10 Fish fillet with mango & Oreo cheesecake: 10/10 I highly recommend Haven to anyone visiting Siem Reap—not only for the incredible food, but for the beautiful mission behind it. We loved it so much that we’re already planning to go back again before we leave. A place that feeds people, supports people, and makes you feel good doing both 🤍

Absolute amazing food and atmosphere. From the first moment we entered, we were met with kindness and professionalism. Amazing place and a great concept. We love how young has a chance to develop themselves within the restaurant business. All personal we met was so so kind. Everyone in Cambodia should definitely come to try the amazing food and this loving concept. 🙏🏻❤️🫶🏻 We will come back in the future!

Haven is a real hidden gem in Siem Reap. Beyond the delicious lunch, what truly stands out is the heart behind the place — providing training and work opportunities for the local community. The hospitality felt genuine, warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. I started with the calamari, followed by the crisp papaya salad for mains — fresh, light and full of flavour. Dessert was a winner too: carrot cake paired with the mango sorbet, which was perfectly sweet and absolutely delicious. Sitting outside under the trees made the whole experience even more special. The staff were attentive without being overbearing. A beautiful space with a meaningful purpose. Highly recommend. Loved the quote in their menu - “The meaning of life, is to give life meaning.” (I want to get it tattooed.)

This was the best dining experience we had in Siem Reap and cambodia. The Cordon Blue was very very good, nice dessert as well. We enjoyed it! Staff was very friendly and we also liked the concept of this whole restaurant. 10/10 would recommend!
