Our story

A garden table for slow evenings

Saffron Garden began as a family kitchen beside the Siem Reap river. Today it is a candle-lit courtyard restaurant where every dish starts with herbs picked from our own garden and fish from the Tonle Sap.

Our chefs honour classic recipes such as fish amok and beef lok lak, then finish them with saffron, palm sugar and Kampot pepper for a warm, refined taste you will remember.

Guest words

Loved by locals and travellers

The fish amok was the best I had in Cambodia. The courtyard at night is simply magical.

We celebrated our anniversary here. The staff were warm and the saffron dessert was perfect.
