Awesome food! Great price! Great quantity! Poor decor/atmosphere/service in the restaurant...
Royal Angkor,without doubt, makes the best Thai food we have ever eaten. Absolutely amazing & we have ordered from them for many many years now... Our favourites are Special 3 & #1. We have NEVER had a bad meal. I should also mention that we often order the same meals & have noticed that it is rare to get the same tasting dish every time. It is the luck of the draw & dependant on how busy they are & how liberal with the spices... And I will reiterate that we have never had a bad meal despite this... Everything is made from scratch and absolutely fantastic.
However, we won't eat in the restaurant unless we go for lunch and get there very early. The restaurant is a dive & certainly gives a bad first impression. The problem with only 2 cooks & huge huge demand is that the service is slow. Certainly well worth the wait, but slow. There is no preferential treatement - items are cooked in the order they are taken - regardless if you takeout or eat in. So we order takeout most times as it is just as hot & just as good.
As an aside, any of the rice dishes make excellent leftovers... So we often order extra dishes just to give more variety & simply take for lunch the next day. When not being run off his feet, the cook is a great guy to chat with - really loves what he is doing & it shows in the quality of the food.
I have artifically given the "services" and "atmosphere" sections 5 stars though they don't deserve it as this the the ony way to give a 5 start overall rating. The restaurant deserves an overall 5 start rating....
Royal angkor, i'm pretty sure, used to be owned by Pat, the kingstonian king of cambodian cuisine. So if pat, even in the slightest, influenced the chef here, you can bet it's gonna be good. And it is, royal angkor is a good place to go if you're tired of americanized asian food.
I ordered the pad thai just because pad thai, in general, is good no matter where you go, and the pad thai here is no exception. Everything was cooked properly, but the only thing about it is I found the sauce a little bit too sweet for my liking. But then again, it comes with a lemon slice, so I guess that's what it's for.
I gave the service a 3/5, but it really deserves maybe a 3.5. Nothing amazing about the service but the guy who works here is definitely more than "adequate". Same goes for the atmosphere, a 3.5. The only thing about this place it is closes in the mid-afternoon, at around 2 I believe (well, it did went, anyways). So if you're still eating at 1:55, the door closes and you get to watch people outside wanting to come in, only to be stuck outside while you're slurping up your delicious pad thai noodles. Make sure you get a seat by the window.
Never had any of the other popular dishes like red curry chicken or golden chicken, but I imagine they are good too
Overall, good place to go, but it's in an area that has a lot of asian restaurants, so it could be missed.
Restaurantica should really let reviewers give half stars. This restaurant gets a 3.5/5 overall from me
First time trying this place – we started with vegetarian spring rolls which were excellent (3 for $5). For mains we had dish #1 chicken curry/coconut/rice and #21 Vegetarian tofu and pineapple. As mentioned spring rolls were great, but we were left somewhat disappointed with the main meals given such generally positive reviews. Both could could have included more vegetables as #1 came with 2 slices of cucumber and tomato with chicken and rice curry, while #21 had cilantro and green onion with tofu and rice. This is not a very inspiring plate of food - I suppose the description did not specify extra veggies but most restaurants include few more items. Another shortcoming was rice; it was waay overcooked and clumpy + soft, maybe this is not the usual but it was during our visit and did not enhance the meal. We might visit again and try Pad Thai, but lack of vegetables with the dishes and very soft tofu is a huge drawback. The portions were good for the price and we did see a lot of take-out happening - so I guess it works for hungry students or those who add ingredients at home. But as is it was quite sub par.
