COMPAS Riverside 🌮 Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Khan Daun Penh

Mexicano Riverside is an absolute delight. They offer complementary nachos with pico de gallo and a choice of three sauces as soon as you sit down. The recipes are authentic, and they clearly don’t cut corners—the food is incredibly satisfying. Despite arriving 30 minutes before closing, the staff were welcoming and accommodating. In my opinion, this place deserves five stars.

I’m especially glad to have met the owner on a cigar cruise earlier this year; otherwise, I might have overlooked this gem. Having traveled extensively through Asia, I can confidently say that this Mexican restaurant rates higher than any others in the same category I’ve visited in years, even comparing it to experiences in Canada and the US. While I can’t directly compare it to Mexico itself due to the huge diversity in dishes, their food here is exceptional.

Having visited Mexicano Riverside several times now, it has become a must-visit whenever I’m in PP. The service and food are flawless—I will...

I decided to explore Mexican cuisine while in Cambodia. Interestingly, my stay in Phnom Penh coincided with Taco Tuesday, and since I had no dinner plans for the day, I took the opportunity to indulge. I ordered a variety of tacos including prawn, beef, pastor (pork with pineapple), pork with banana leaf, and pastor vegan.

On the bright side, the margaritas were excellent and not diluted, which was a pleasant surprise. The customer service was top-notch, and the food was served promptly. Conveniently located along the Phnom...

So dropped by the new mexicano riverside and had something I've never tried before that was pork rib tacos.... Absolutely fabulous.... A must try... Cannot wait to try anything else new they come up with

Tried the fajita Friday special... Had the premium pork order (korobuta) and it was juicy and full of flavor

Came back again for taco Tuesday... Got my go to.. Al pastor... But also tried the potato and chorizo and the chicken mole tacos that were added since I first tried them and all I can say is that they should be on the regular menu... The chicken mole is to die for.... Worth it at twice the price

The menu and service do not disappoint... Always have something that makes me continue to want to come back.. Today it was the chille rellano taco......
