Great family Run Place! Fresh food excellent flavor what more can you ask for. Be advised, it is a cash-only establishment. ATM on site

Chicken on a stick is all I've ever had from this place. One time dude working outside in the little cart took my change for his tip without asking though lmfao. read more

The food is pretty good. We shared beef wontons, which were the best part, along with the chicken kabob. The kabob was massive so I would highly recommend sharing. The menu is a bit limited. The staff are friendly. The down side to this place is that this place looks filthy. From the floors to the walls, it makes you feel a bit uneasy. There is a strange entertainment center along one of the walls. You also have to take a 3 foot pipe or wooden post as a bathroom key. I don't think I'll dine in again but I'd give it a chance as take away. Although, they really need to clean up the place for me to want to go regularly. The food is good but they are losing points for the state of the place. read more

What a gem. It's just one of those classic local spots that has a cult following for a really good reason. Good food, fantastic personality, and open late. Recommended: seafood fried wontons. Nom. read more

To die for! Very good authentic food. Highly recommend the seafood wontons and chicken on a stick. I could drink the sauce they marinate it in, great local spot! read more

Absolutely amazing! We ended up here both nights of our very short stay in the neighborhood. Tried the seafood wontons, pork spring rolls, pad Thai, and fried rice - everything was so delicious. Perfect late night drunk food, I only wish it wasn't a 10 hour drive from home. Staff was super friendly too. Wish I could give it more than 5 stars! read more

I made my first visit to Cambod-ican last night before taking in a show across the street at the Rex. The first thing I noticed when I walked in were the reviews and newspaper features posted on the wall. Apparently this place started off as a humble food truck a few years ago before upgrading to a full restaurant, and it's a bit of a go-to spot on the South Side. I don't spend a whole lot of time on this end of the city, so it's taken me a while to make it down to eat here, but now that I have, I'll definitely be coming again. I had the kuyteav soup bowl, which is very similar (though not identical) to the pho you can get at Tram's, Pho Minh or Vietnam's Pho elsewhere in the city. The broth was delicious, with bits of fried garlic floating at the top. It came with a plate of fixings (bean sprouts and cilantro, though no basil this time, as I believe they were out of it for the night), and a container of roasted chile flakes on the table added the perfect amount of heat. The people I came with had the steamed rice noodles and General Tso's with brown rice, and everybody at the table was pleased with their meal. I snagged bites here and there, loving everything, and I'm going to have to come back to this place again and again to order everything else that looks good on the menu. Cambod-ican makes everything to order, meaning for a lot of things there's a bit of a wait between paying and receiving the meal, so if you're starving you might want to stick to the listed "quick" foods on the wall or perhaps start off with an appetizer. If you're on the South Side and low on cash, or just want a tasty Asian-style meal, this is the place to go. The portions are huge, the prices low and the food is excellent, especially the soup. read more

I love coming here! Great food that is authentic. The staff is friendly and personable and the portions are huge. I crave the chicken fried rice with moon sauce all the time. The egg rolls are huge and come with the moon sauce. Its heavenly ! read more

Let me tell you about these wontons. THEY ARE SO GOOD. Must update my review to five stars. Get the seafood wontons. Fried yet wonderfully soaked in the sauce. I get excited whenever I go to South Side, because I'm 80% probably going to stop here before I go home and pass out. Cash only, but you only need to save a fiver for some bangin wontons. read more

This is the best noodle soup place I have been to in Pittsburgh. Very tasty fried seafood wontons in their moon sauce. Make sure you try the crushed red peppers with them. The owners are very friendly as well. Tips: They do not take credit cards, but are open very late. They are sometimes open on Sundays, but you should probably call first to check. read more

Friends who really liked the place took me and I ordered the noodle soup ("like pho" as written on their menu). I wasn't expected the signature fragrant broth of pho but I was expecting noodles, any good flavor, and lots of toppings to throw in. I was disappointed in my very plain soup that was incredibly sweet I squeezed it out every time I ate my noodles. The meat was very tender which was nice, but the toppings (basil, cilantro and beansprouts) were not enough to absorb the broth. It was basically a very sweet beef broth without a particularly memorable flavor. I also was not happy paying double the price of pho to reserve half the portion of the cambodican noodle soup. A newbie mistake I made was buying bottled water bc you order at a pick-up-like and didn't know they would bring glasses of water to our table. This added to my bill and went against my usual stance of not buying bottled water (but I was really thirsty). Wish I could have better things to say since the people were so nice and I loved the orange chopsticks and napkins they had. read more

So cheap and big portions. The service is friendly and fun, their family-owned atmosphere makes you feel as though they are rally taking care of you. The food is good, fresh, and filling. I recommend their version Pho. read more

The person working there was very nice. I mean the first bite of each dish was very good but a few bites in it gets harder to finish. The food was super sweet. Almost all the dishes were sweet, even the one's you weren't expecting. So if you are diabetic like my friend that came with me, this might not be the restaurant for you. But if you enjoy sweeter foods, you will like the food here. read more

As others have said, the food is cheap and the portions are huge. It takes a really long time to cook - be prepared to wait a good 20 minutes for your order. Signs posted all around the restaurant explain that they prefer to take their time and make good food rather than rushing. I love love love the crispy noodles with vegetables. The only thing that sucks is that it seems like every time I'm craving this place, they're closed. Not open on Mondays, or for lunch anyday. read more

This place is 100% authentic! My mama is the best! If you're drunk or sober you'll leave this place satisfied guaranteed!! First time in this state and I'm from Cali! I'm coming back fasho to eat here.. I put that on mamas read more

fun fact... a month after my previous review of cambodican I moved to southside. (3 years ago) haven't really been this place in 3 years probably until recently. while their food is ok, the entire store could use a good cleaning in my opinion. read more

Family owned Southeast Asian-inspired fusion food in a diner setting - cash only & open late late late! I have a few menu favorites that I don't stray from... the ones that are hits have me coming back for more; the misses are misses: Fried seafood wontons ($3 for 6) topped with plenty of the smokey red pepper flakes is a thing of spicy dreams; Crispy Noodles (Lo Mein) is a favorite! (as long as it's not burned!) They have unusual hours (since they are family owned and operated), but friendly and great for the late-night crowd. read more

I love this place! I used to work in Southside so every weekend I would come here after work. The food is good, but, the cashier she's a younger girl always messes up the order. I order and say the same thing to her every time and what I get brought out to me is always different. Food is still good like I said before, but it's usually not what I even ordered. Other than that this is a great place to eat, all their versions of chicken are good. Make sure you ask for extra moon sauce you won't regret it :) read more

I admit I was skeptical when I saw how popular this place was for people coming from a night of drinking. Was this place good because most people may not be completely sober, or was it actually attractive regardless of intoxication level? Now I'm pretty sure it's the latter, in particular with regard to their delicious beef stew. Quite different from a lot of other noodle soup based dishes in that the broth base is curry, so overall it's rather sweet and a bit spicy. But the beef and other ingredients still make it savory at the same time, so every bite is just full of flavor. In addition to the beef, of which there was a lot, there was also a decent amount of carrots, potatoes, cilantro, and basil, with the herbs adding in the freshness factor. The noodles were nothing fancy but they were cooked nice and soft, so they rounded out the whole meal. I don't know about any of the other more fusion-sounding dishes, but this one was in a class of its own. read more

Cambod-Ican Kitchen - Caw goh: beef noodles in curry broth - Cambodian Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I'm obsessed with this place. The hours of operation are wacky, but thank god it's open late night on the weekends. It's WORTH a trip the shit hole called the South Side. It's over run with dumb college kids late night. But the food is worth the wait, the people that operate it are wonderful to talk to as well. read more

That place is electric, the service unbeatable the food amazing the people even better

Chicken on the stick with moon sauce is the bomb. Fried wontons are fabulous. Always good to pay for extra moon sauce.

Byob with amazing dishes. I had the vegyable curry over lo main and it was perfect. I understand it's a good late night spot, buts it's also great for dinner with a group of friends. read more

I absolutely love this place. I am one of those people--much-discussed in other reviews--who crowds into Cambod-Ican on Friday or Saturday after a night of imbibing on the South Side looking for a surf and turf (extra surf, no turf) to satisfy my alcohol-induced hunger. The surf and turf is a magical wrap-like concoction that is filled with a beef kabob and a few crab rangoons, drizzled with the mystical "moon sauce." I have actually never had anything else from this place, and I probably never will. The crab rangoons are hands down the best I have ever had, even before the moon sauce comes on the scene. They have an onion-like flavor in the dough itself and are the perfect balance of salty and sweet. I don't eat beef, but by request you can have the "surf and turf" with a vegetable kabob instead. It's usually the same price, so if you ask nicely, they might add an extra rangoon or two for free. On weekends the Cambod-Ican has an outdoor stand where they sell exclusively surf and turfs, but you can still go inside and order from the full menu. They are open late, so you can leave the bar at 2am and still enjoy this magical meal. As far as I know, the whole place is cash-only, but there is an ATM inside. Have I mentioned how affordable this delicious food is? It's absolutely worth the price and then some. I never leave without tipping because I feel like I'm robbing the place. Whether you are sober, drunk, or hungover, you will not find a more comforting fried-food concoction on the south side. Writing this review has me itching to go back. Excuse me... read more

Okay so here's the deal, I was turned on to this place by one of my best friends. The fried wontons with moon sauce are to DIE for. The General Tso's has some kind of magic secret ingredient. It's amazing. It's like heaven. Let me put it this way. I now live in DC, and I'm making the 4.5 hour trip up to Pittsburgh, not to see my family, but because I can't get enough of Cambo!!! read more

If you're looking for Cambodian food, then you've come to the wrong place. If you live Taco Bell for their authentic replications of Mexican food, then maybe you'll like it here. read more

Got the sampler platter and the chow mien noodles with stir fry vegetables, the Jasmine tea and a can of Pomegranate juice from this food truck - turned restaurant. Its got kind of a strange set up to allow for late night grubbing for the bar hoppers - but slightly confusing for those who are just coming for dinner. We ordered at the window and the food was brought to our table, but I have a feeling I wouldn't have gotten my tea until dinner if I wouldn't have asked for it. The food was good, but nothing really remarkable, and their 'moon' sauce is tasty and sweet, but it was really on everything, and overpowered any other flavors. The food was relatively cheap, and the drinks were actually pretty expensive ($2.50 for a small pot of tea, no refills). I also had to stand at the kitchen window for a couple minutes to get change to pay, but not one of the 3 people in the kitchen bothered to get someone to help me. I eventually just gave up and got some change together myself. The atmosphere was actually pretty decent and I was mildly surprised since I anticipated something more along the lines of the 'truck food' roots that it came from. I would eat here again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get there. I also would try something else in hopes of something a little tastier and with a bit more depth. Maybe read more

One of my favorite places to eat in the burgh. The food is delicious, and the owners are super people. Too bad they arent open to tonight. I would surely make it my after marathon dinner. Next time i visit for sure. read more

Great food, great service! Brendan gave us a free appetizer to try because it was our first time there. I will be going back soon.

I am always satisfied after leaving Cambod-Ican Kitchen! I pretty much always have to get the crispy noodles with shrimp and chicken, and the seafood won tons. And I always put the moun sauce and roasted red pepper flakes on everything. Anyone I know who has ever been here loves it. The restaurant is family owned and operated, with mother and son in the kitchen, and father and daughter in the front. Sometimes they have extra help, but it is usually pretty slow. And very casual, with a decor that reflects this. It's also BYOB. The only drawback is trying to find a parking space near this section of Carson Street. read more

I am in love with the food at Cambod-Ican. Hands down, every time I visit Pittsburgh I stop here for the to-die-for seafood wontons in the amazingly delicious magical moon sauce. The tea is perfect, too. If there was one restaurant I could pick to eat at for the rest of my life, it would be this one. I've been coming here since 2007, and don't plan on stopping. Dan and his family are incredibly welcoming, and it feels like you're eating at their home. It's worth the wait. If you haven't tried it yet, shame on you. read more

This restaurants has very strange hours and generally only time i got food was after 1am when they serve it hot in front of the restaurants quick and ready to go for drunk eating. I'd say it is fairly priced like $5 for teriyaki chicken or some fried rice for only having to wait in line. It is a nice different from getting pizza or gyros read more

I always feel bad about myself anytime after eating here haha. I only really order one thing and it's their deep fried wontons. Those things are what I can imagine to be so bad for you but I don't care... A little bit of moon sauce and siracha and I am a happy happy girl! read more

The food in this place is amazing! We tried the curry vegetables bowl and the chicken basil and both were delicious! The staff is very friendly as well! One of the best places in Southside read more

I love the authentic flavours at this restaurant. Everything is as close as it can to the tastes of Southeast Asia. The service was excellent too. I will be returning to try everything on the menu! read more

Orgasmic moans... Yep, can't hold 'em in when eating the food here. They must get that a lot. Watch out for the cowboy: He is overly ...enthusiastic? about joking with you and suggesting meals and side dishes and hot pepper sauce. But he means well. read more

Worth 5 stars because not only is it perfect after a night of drinking and dancing, but I crave it when I'm sober, too! I've never been one for Asian style cuisine of any sort, but we go out of our way to grab dinner at Cambod-Ican Kitchen. My favorites? The friend rice with chicken and the seafood wontons (DEFINITELY order the wontons). The only negative in my book? They're only open in the evenings and not for lunch. read more

amazing service and friendly staff. Love the tofu curry. Ask for brown rice, tofu, or white rice alongside.

Good Food! Crazy Place! There is a lot going on here! Not your typical quite romantic night. This is more of a late night, few drinks kinda place. read more

The Beef Stew is very delicious. The beef is tender and well seasoned. The broth is the best part I could taste anise is it and fresh herbs that they grow in the front window - can't get any fresher than that. The chicken noodles is also quite delicious with a wonderful tasty broth. They have a nice selection of beverages also with juices from south east Asia. The staff is quite friendly. The owner frequently comes out to chat with patrons about their meal. read more
