Loved everything about this place. I'm not vegetarian per say but ordered vegetarian food and it was stunning. Just so flavourful and delicious.

We have been visiting this restaurant ever since it first opened. In the main it is still very good. The taste of the food remains superb. Disappointed with the chicken kari. Only 5 tiny pieces of chicken in it. The other dishes lamb, duck, prawn) were ok. Just felt very tight on chicken, the cheapest meat on the menu. Also a new menu starting 1st Nov was advertised back in October. We booked especially wanting to try specific dishes on it. No new menu and no new launch date. All just felt a little off point. Such a shame

Food was amazing but disappointing service we sat down at 8-30pm and ordered starters and main meals at the same time. The lot came out together we felt rushed as if the staff wanted to go home for the night.

Went for dinner on a Friday evening at 7.30pm. At 9pm after finishing main course asked about a dessert, told kitchen is closed. We weren't advised the kitchen was closing and it was only 9pm on a Friday!! We had wine to finish and they were stacking chairs on tables around us. Customer service not good, won't return. Food average.

Booked for three of us here for lunch and the food was amazing, I had the bang bang cauliflower for starters and I never knew that cauliflower could be transformed into something so delicious! I also had the prawn with lemongrass which was equally delicious! My husband and our friend also enjoyed there dishes very much. The lady that served us was lovely, very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be back again very soon 😊

Visited on the recommendation of a friend about a month ago - and been twice since. Menu is really extensive, with brilliant veggie and vegan options, as well as a "diet" range. Food is superb, however the service deserves a special mention as it's flawless. The waiter was attentive and efficient, polite and friendly, without being "too much", a balance that is hard to find. Thank you.

Our first time visit. The food was good, but not exceptional as I was expecting given its reputation. As for portion size, the "small plates" seemed to be the same size as the "large plates" but without the Jasmin rice. The service was good and you didn't feel rushed in any way. Don't get me wrong, we did enjoy it but weren't blown away.

Every time I come here, the food is so lovely. Portion sizes are big and there is a separate vegan menu with lots of different options. Flavours are great, and the service is really good as well. Only thing is that the food on my last visit I found the chilli a bit too much. Prices are okay, but slightly on the expensive side for me.

Probably the best Southeast Asian food around. The food is super fresh, well cooked and well priced. I like that they have a huge vegan menu, and is a bit more unique and sophisticated than your standard Thai where everything is sweet, and same old same old no matter where you go. Authentic Cambodian dishes with some other Southeast Asian classics. Highly recommend.

Have eaten here several times for lunch and in the evenings.Always enjoyed the food and the prices were good. However last night the food was bland and the prices have increased markedly.

Great food but disappointing service. I'm so sad to be writing this review as my previous experiences here have been wonderful. We took 2 friends tonight to eat in Marple, table of 4. ² Our drinks arrived fine, including a small ( 1 person serving £8).of prosecco. We ordered 2 small plates to share and our 4 mains and the waitress read back our order to us. Our small plates came out, one of which was wrong, this was rectified immediately and we were also given the wrong order for free ( which was not expected and very nice ) . Main course arrived for 3 of us. Then waitress came back to say she had forgotten to put my order through and ask again what it was. Everyone else ate their mains whilst I waited for mine ( which to be fair came out as quickly as.they could make it). After this we ordered 3 desserts. Two desserts came out and we had to ask again for the lime posset we had ordered as well. My husband paid the bill and left a tip, as we decided after all everyone has busy evenings and bad days and the food was still delicious. When we got home i double checked the bill (.as he mentioned it was higher than he exoected) to see that we had been charged £28 for a bottle of prosecco and not the £8 for the one person serving I received. Yes we should have double checked at the time and that is on us, but it really just added to the disappointing service we experienced tonight. Not the standard of service I expect really of such a usually great place.

We're having a weekend in Marple and were looking for somewhere that had a vegan menu. I'm so happy we found Kambuja! The choice of vegan options is really impressive and the portions are good. We used the click and collect. Our food was ready on time and the staff were very friendly. The restaurant was busy which shows how popular they are. We highly recommend Kambuja.

I’d love to try it out, but I called to book and was told “1 minute”. Four minutes later I was left listening to background restaurant chatter.. I eventually hung up after I realised I’d been forgotten. I tried to get back through but no answer. If I manage to make a booking I’ll amend my review, but my first experience was not a good one at all if I’m honest.

SEE UPDATE BELOW - BEWARE 1st Visti - Wow!! What an absolute hidden gem we have here! After we stumbled upon this restaurant by accident we weren’t disappointed- absolutely delicious!! The menu was wide ranging and catered for our plant based diets plus also had a meat selection for our company. The food was all round great with fair sized portions and service with a smile. The actual restaurant was lovely, cosy to a degree (could always be improved) and small and quaint enough to make this simply a great place to dine! Would definitely come here again! 23rd Sept 2023 - Lunchtime - UPDATE- Wow what a difference! Came for my dad’s birthday and sadly the service was absolutely shocking. The lady who served us was so rude she was practically ‘telling us off’ for choosing items on the menu. She was unhelpful, rude and downright impolite and we were all shocked. She couldn’t have done less for us. Also, the ordered food came out wrong - no apology and they even tried to charge us for the items on the bill. Shocked!…what an absolute disgrace - won’t be coming here again now

The food tasted great but if I was owner of this restaurant I would have been embarrassed to put something like this on customers table. For the £11 and the pictures presented on the menu you would expect more. The portions sizes are so small. Shame that restaurant with potential can not look after their customers. Unfortunately would not come back.

Me and hubby work chaotic shifts and have small kids so it’s not often we get to have lunch together, so we really appreciate when we find somewhere that ticks all the boxes and gives us a truly lovely experience, and we were not disappointed!The restaurant is a delight, on the small side but cosy, all staff were COVID compliant and can I say that to be so warm and friendly while wearing a mask isn’t easy but your staff made us feel completely looked after and welcome from the moment we arrived and were attentive throughout.The food is delicious... I wish I could remember exactly what we had ... mine involved noodles in a coconut curry sauce and it was a delight, really warming and hearty and perfect for the cold weather we came in from. My partner is quite fussy but devoured his entire plate within about 5 minutes. I managed to sneak a taste before it was gone and it was so flavoursome! The bao pork bun was a real treat and my partner had the summer rolls which again, he demolished. The drinks were also lovely, I do enjoy when a restaurant offers more than the standard soft drink selection. We had ginger beer, lime and soda and both indulged in an iced Colombian coffee, which was scrummy.To be honest if you had a dessert menu we probably would have got something from that too (the portion sizes are more than enough, we are just greedy!).Thank you so much for a lovely meal, we will certainly be coming back!

Awful place. Vegan dish was served with meat in. Awful customer service upon complaining. If you don’t believe what the customer service is like just check out the managers responses to the negative reviews on tripadvisor. I’d imagine he/she thinks it’s amusing. It’s not. They’ve closed their other site and it’s hardly surprising. Avoid at all costs.

As a Malaysian, I am very disappointed to say that their food lacks the authentic Malaysian taste some diners might expect. While the restaurant is praised for its traditional flavours and quality ingredients in the other reviews, the dishes did not fully capture the essence of Malaysian food. The menu provides a variety of options, yet some dishes may fall short of delivering the genuine Malaysian taste that local Malaysians seek. For example, I have tried their nasi lemak, mee goreng and masak lemak. To start off, although the nasi lemak had the basic components of what a nasi lemak would have, the sambal was not as spicy. Their mee goreng was made with spaghetti/pasta instead of the usual egg noodles that you would usually get at your typical local eatery back in Malaysia. Last but not least, the masak lemak was NOT masak lemak at all. It’s supposed to be a spicy turmeric based curry, instead I received a tomato based sweet curry. That was the biggest disappointment for me as a masak lemak lover. Overall, it's a pleasant spot for a meal, but those looking for an authentic Malaysian experience might find it slightly lacking. I ordered takeaway from this restaurant so I can’t say much about the service and atmosphere.

The food here was very average and clearly microwaved as our starters were soggy and arrived within a few minutes of ordering. We ordered a massaman curry and asked 3 times if we could please have the curry spicy, quite hot and when it arrived it was bland just as listed on the menu. The waitress clearly took no notice of what we asked for. The atmosphere was rather odd. Tables very close to one another and as much as I’m an animal lover the table next to us had a dog with them which was crying and whimpering the whole time. Overall for the £70 spent the food was very average and not made fresh. We were quite disappointed as we went there on recommendation. I’m not sure if this is standard however too and service charge was already added automatically to the bill which I also found odd as this should be at the discretion of the customer. Also no option if draught beers instead overpriced bottled beers were the only option.

The food here is lovely, lots of choice and I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve tried. I want to love this restaurant, but the service lets the experience down every time. Every visit the same staff member has made us feel somewhat unwelcome - the last time they seemed to be laughing at our order with the chef. They joked about turning customers away who came in looking for a table. It made for a very uncomfortable time in a very small restaurant. Another waiter arrived later on who was lovely, I wished he had been there the whole time! Maybe a little more training is needed?
