Globetrotting gourmets will find a range of delicious dishes to sink their teeth into at the stunning Heritage Suites Hotel. One of TripAdvisor’s Top Fine Dining Restaurants in 2015, Heritage Restaurant blends European elegance with traditional Khmer charm. The five-course set menu is a popular option with diners, and includes sweet and sour sea bass and beef lok lak (Cambodian stir-fry). The cocktail bar and lounge serves sumptuous, handcrafted cocktails and hosts the country-famous live jazz nights every Thursday.

2. Park Hyatt Siem Reap

Diner, Restaurant, French, Asian

Headed by Executive Chef Pisith Theam, The Dining Room fuses French fine dining with classic Khmer cuisine, using the freshest and finest seasonal products. Think wok-fried prawns with curry paste, spring onion and roasted peanut, accompanied by jasmine rice, and sautéed chicken seasoned with ginger, palm sugar, spring onion and saw-leaf, and served alongside Kampot fish sauce and steamed rice. Sophisticated in its décor, the restaurant at the five-star Park Hyatt Siem Reap offers excellent service in sumptuous surroundings.

Overlooking Siem Reap River, FCC Angkor is housed in a stunning, minimalist-style building. Plating up Western-Asian fusion cuisine in a relaxed environment, the menu takes in dishes such as Australian steak with beetroot ravioli; miang (betel leaf) with shredded chicken, peanuts, pomelo and ginger in smoked fish dressing; and steamed sea bass with water lily and Khmer basil oil. A mean cocktail list is also on offer, with happy-hour specials running daily.

5. Rambutan Siem Reap Resort
