Battambang — Restaurant in Oakland

A cozy, ethnic restaurant with delicious Cambodian food and superb dessert.

While you might just casually pass up this inconspicuous restaurant while walking along Broadway, you'd be playing yourself. The inside is cozy and inviting with all the Southeast Asian decor and friendly service.

The menu offers a variety of lunch and dinner specials, from salads to grilled items to curries. We got a rice crepe with chopped chicken to start and had a seafood medley curry and beef shish kabob with brown rice. Everything was savory, cooked perfectly, and delicious. The rice crepe, stuffed with bean sprouts and topped with a garlic vinegar sauce was surprisingly fresh and was a great way to start off the meal. The shish kabob was juicy and flavorful, and the curry was out of this world. The fish was buttery and tender, and curry matched perfectly with a side of rice.

The dessert here is so good, they have permanent dessert menus fixed under the glass of each table. We got the fried banana with house coconut ice cream, as well as the fresh manila mango with sticky rice. Both were satisfying without being overly sweet and a perfect way to end the meal.

I would highly recommend trying...

For well over 10 years, Battambang Restaurant has been my go-to spot, and they truly feel like family. From the moment you step through the door, you're enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and genuine hospitality that is simply unmatched.

I've introduced this delicious gem to my mom, aunties, and cousins, and they all adore it just as much as I do. The customer service is impeccable, making every visit feel special and memorable.

Now, let's dive into the food! My absolute favorites are the Crab Fried Rice (make sure to add extra crab!) and the Battambang Noodles with Shrimp. Each dish is a symphony of flavors that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy. And whatever you do, save room for dessert the Fried Banana with Coconut Ice Cream is to die for! It's the perfect sweet finale to an already perfect meal.

Battambang Restaurant is more than just a dining spot; it's a place where memories are made and cherished. If you haven't experienced it yet, do yourself a favor and go. You...

Uber and Battambang/Rip-Off😭 Delivery was smooth and on time. The restaurant 👎🏾! Visiting friends , just got in from 4 hours on Amtrak , only had yogurt all day. Ordered appetizer sampler ,red curry with duck and house fried rice with two proteins -shrimp and pork! For the life of me can’t figure out why you don’t automatically get steamed rice to go with the Curry! 😳If I had not ordered the fried rice I would’ve had nothing to go with the Curry! Any who why do I get only 2 shrimp after paying extra for shrimp?!Called Uber and they thanked me so much for letting them know(like it’s an experiment!) & how much it will help them. They’ve had other complaints about this place🙀Why are they still on your restaurant list Uber Ripoff?!!I want my money back for the shrimp!!!Corporate greed at a new low with sub- standard restaurants!Pics of appetizers, “ fake” rice and duck red curry! Edit - Uber did refund the fried rice...
