Nice ambience, great food, crowded 12/1/2007

I went to Kampuchea on Friday with my boyfriend around 8. While the hostess told us we would be seated in 15-20 minutes, it was closer to 45 minutes before we were seated. Normally this would aggravate me, but we were able to find a spot close to the bar, out of people's way, and the music was very good! We ordered drinks and the hostess, who was quite attentive, brought us over a round of drinks on the house since the wait was longer. While we were waiting the restaurant got very crowded! I would suggest getting there a little before 8 in order to get a seat. We ordered the sandwich tasting - 3 small sandwiches for $17. The coconut tiger shrimp and sweet pulled oxtail sandwiches were VERY good. I wasn't a fan of the ginger rubbed catfish. The catfish tasted undercooked and too salty! We each ordered an entree, which were delightful and spicy. I am a big fan of spicy food, but if you're not, tell the waiter to make the food less spicy. The entrees were generous in size and in theory we could have ordered one entree with the 3 sandwiches and would have been fine. Kampuchea is on my lits of restaurants that I will keep returning too. While I've been to Momofuku and have really enjoyed their food, I much prefer the ambience and staff of Kampuchea. Pros: The food, drinks, ambience, service Cons: Only one bathroom! more
