Restaurant recommmendations for a romantic dinner

While we are Siem Reap we have a special birthday to celebrate. I am looking for a nice classy, romantic restaurant for dinner to celebrate the occassion.





Open to all sorts of cusine, more important is the location and ambiendce.





I did try searching but couldn%26#39;t find anything.





Thanks for your help.

Raffles Grand d%26#39;Angkor (where we stayed for 6 nights in March) has 2 restaurants... Their Khmer-French fancy Restaurant Le Grand is very expensive, beautiful %26amp; romantic... service incredible, ambiance wonderful... have a pre-dinner cocktail in the famous Elephant Bar, where there%26#39;s a cocktail named for Jackie Kennedy...





If you can%26#39;t afford Le Grand, Cafe D%26#39;Angkor is beautifully candlelit at night, white linen table clothes, very reasonable continental cuisine, excellent service... and there%26#39;s an outside terrace over-looking the largest pool in Asia bordered by frangipani trees %26amp; a Khmer pavilion at the end... where they have the traditional Khmer music/dance performance a few nights a week.





Either place you will be treated like royalty, with good A/C (but not too much) %26amp; no bugs as it%26#39;s indoors (unless you eat on the terrace). Casual nice dress for Cafe %26amp; business casual for Le Grand.





Good wines, cocktails %26amp; great French desserts in both places.





Raffles Grand d%26#39;Angkor is across from the Royal Gardens.

Thank you for those suggestions, much appreciated.





Given everyone ideas are different, what are the approximate cost of food at Le Grand, say fro starters and entrees?





Thanks




Another suggestion would be Carnet d%26#39;Asie





French/asian fusion, really nice food, relaxed atmosphere, nice cocktails and wine list. Beautiful ambiance. Dinner for two with a couple of drinks around $50.





if you want to do some Khmer food the best is at Sugar Palm.




Have a look at Meric at the hotel de la Paix. It is considered one of the best restaurants in Cambodia.





The setting is lovely - ask for a table on the terrace - the food and service I enjoyed recently were both excellent.





Starters US$9 - $14



Mains - US$22 - $26





+ 5% service charge and 10% tax.





Great place for a special birthday celebration!
