Angkor Papaya

are they still open? just came by and it was closed. there’s a sign saying they are closed labor day

Interesting place that serves laos papaya salad (which is what I came for). I came and ordered togo on a not so busy Friday afternoon. The service isn’t very friendly, but it didn’t really bother me.
The small order of papaya salad is enough for one person and cost $ 5. I ordered a medium spice and it was bearable. If you’ve had papaya salad before, this one is just like the rest of them, nothing special. I was sort of bummed they didn’t serve it with the noodles like at a traditional laos place. I also ordered a beef skewer for $ 1.75. The flavor was actually really good, but overpriced in my opinion.
Don’t think I’ll be coming back to try anything else, not worth it.

The papaya salad was just a little sour but it was great on the spiciness scale, my whole family ordered the combination sizzling plate, it was very salty and dry I ended up drinking 3 cups of water to push down the food.

We only ordered their cajun style crawfish which was buy 5 lbs get 1 lb free — at this time it was $ 8/​lb (July).
My parents are from New Orleans — We. know. cajun. food. In fact, we know crawfish. So we rarely go out and buy if cause we always make it better at home. But somebody suggested this place so we gave if a go.
With that being said:
THIS IS NOT CAJUN. It is dry, it isn’t juicy. Looks dirty. But it sure is spicy. The oils, grease, and aromatics they use suffocates the flavor of the actual meat though. It was horrible. Tasted like it was just sauteed in spicy stuff. (There wasn’t even any corn/​andouille sausuge/​potatoes! Just pure crawfish!) All of us also felt sick after we ate it – like heartburn and tummy. We don’t even want to know how many calories we just ate.
All we kept thinking was — this was a waste of perfectly good crawfish. They need to knock the word «cajun» off the menu. And say it’s asian inspired.
Oh. One last comment. Is there a reason why you play club music in a tiny, little asian restaurant? And is the random disco ball necessary?

This place is kind of misleading because not even half of the menu is Cambodian.
The rice plates are alright but they need to give out more rice.
The phở is not good. It gave off a cinnamon taste which is weird.
Its a little disappointing but at least its not expensive!

This is classic misrepresentation. With Angkor in the name you’d think they sell Cambodian food but it’s Vietnamese & Cajun. Imagine going to a restaurant called Tuscany Garden hoping to get Italian food but they sell German.
They claim to have a few Cambodian items on the menu which they no longer sell. My wife’s family is Cambodian and nothing we had was Cambodian. They didn’t recognize anything on the menu as Cambodian. It all seems to be Vietnamese or Cajun
The food took a long time to come out and service was slow. The servers were friendly.
We had a few appetizers and left because we came for Cambodian food and they didn’t have any.
The food overall was bad. They take too many short cuts. They use a lot of pre-​prepared food. They grill the frozen Vietnamese meatballs on skewers and pass them off as Cambodian meatballs.
The beef skewers were very dry.
Feeling very disgusted as we made the drive from North Dallas. Won’t RTE.

I’m not one to complain but food took to long to come out. Some were finishing up while some were just getting their food. Crawfish is okay but the sausage is not the best. Combination fried rice is not good at all. Waitress took for ever to come and refill the water. Poor service over all

The one and only good thing about this restaurant was that the wait staff were nice.
Went here with a small group wanting to try something new. The consensus from our group was not good. We were served raw seafood, the «sticky» white rice was not sticky but instead seemed old and dry, the skewers of beef/​pork or whatever it was was very tough and had a very strange aftertaste… like a heavy Chinese Allspice flavor mixed with something else, the intensity of spice/​heat from the pickled papaya was at a level that was unexpected and almost made me choke.

From the name we were expecting Cambodian food. We were told the phở is Cambodian but it’s exactly like Vietnamese phở. No difference whatsoever. Food is mediocre. Went twice thinking we went on a bad day but the food was still just ok. Kinda disappointed but at least the waitress was super nice. Should’ve just went next door to phở Pasteur where the phở is always delicious and the large bowls are actually LARGE and isn’t skimpy with their meat.

The grill beef meat is tougher than beef jerky. The beef salad is totally
Tasteless. The rice is dried. There are nine of us it took them 1 hour to bring one plate at a time. So by the time the last entrée come out the rest of us is already done

They have a mix of Cambodian, Vietnamese, and cajun inspired seafood offerings. Beef skewers are really good, papaya salad is kinda strong tasting but still ok. Order it with sticky rice. Didn’t have a chance to try their phở. Crawfish was huge and fresh but it tastes like how you would marinate a ribeye steak. Still prefer TBC for crawfish. Also had the beef curry soup which was alright. Service was excellent! Waitress was very attentive. Got greeted by the owner/​s and chatted with them twice. Will be back next time to try their phở and rice dishes.

It’s more vietnamese food with a cambodian twist I was hoping there was more variety. I didn’t try everything but what I had wasn’t bad. It tasted like food that you get from the temple for new years. Honestly I could make it at home but I was excited to find out there was a cambodian place in Arlington. The staff was pleasant but could be more kept. In all, I was hoping for more authenticity but again the food wasnt bad.

This place has pretty good food, well at least I like it. It’s clean whenever you walk in and servers are pretty nice.
Service: service is ⁸⁄₁₀ depending on who you get. They’re all really friendly and helpful.
Food: really good. I got Cajun sausage, grilled chicken with rice, crawfish, and papaya salad. It’s a little over price, and you don’t get much with it. Crawfish was $ 7.50 when I came today. They’re descent size, but It varies. They’re seasoning is different from other places also. Overall, I come here when I crave it. They have things that a lot of place don’t serve, so that’s a plus.
The reason I gave this place a 4 star is because for the price you pay, I think you should be able to get a little bit more meat. Other than that, it’s delicious!

This place is pretty good! A mix of viet and khmer food plus seafood. They also have boba and will be serving shaved ice soon.
