Olive & Olive Mediterranean Food
- Food
Olive & Olive is a classy restaurant in Sihanoukville that’s noted for its delicious pizzas, great service and big portions. Aside from the pizzas, popular dishes include Spaghetti al Tonno and Greek salad. The quality of the ingredients is very good and with quality, imported meats.
While this does slightly elevate the prices, they are still very reasonable. The open-fronted setting unfortunately only looks out onto the road, so it is best to sit well inside the restaurant for the best experience.

Jin
- Food
Jin is a contender for the title of the 'best pizza in Sihanoukville', though the selections of pasta, salads and burgers it offers are also impressive. The homemade gnocchi comes highly recommended, as does the beetroot pasta.
In a village with several Italian restaurants, Jin really stands out for the extra effort they put in, the high-quality ingredients used and the super-friendly service. Prices are also quite reasonable for such hearty meals.

Sandan
- Food
Sandan provides a good feeling that when you’re sitting down to a meal, you’re giving something back the community. It doesn’t especially improve the flavour, but it does give you a warm feeling inside. The restaurant provides training and experience to vulnerable youths, giving them the opportunity to find work in the hospitality industry.
They also provide excellent local dishes using first-rate local ingredients, with standout dishes including fish amok, banana blossom salad and beef curry. The prices aren’t too bad, but it’s easy to see the good that an extra dollar or so is doing.
