Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor opened in 1932 and describes its style as 1930s French Art Deco. For a visitor staying in another part of Siem Reap, a meal here is the simplest way to step inside that heritage for an evening, with gardens, live piano and a kitchen that celebrates Cambodian cooking.
This page helps you choose the venue that fits your occasion, shows the booking route in clear steps and tells you what to wear, so the evening starts relaxed. Where the hotel has not published a detail, such as lead time or a deposit, you will see a note to confirm it when you reserve.
The short answer: are visitors welcome?
The hotel's dining pages present each venue with its own opening hours, dress code and reservation contact. That is good news for a visitor: you can plan a table in advance by phone or email, exactly as an in-house guest would.
The pages we reviewed do not spell out a separate policy for guests who sleep elsewhere, so the friendliest approach is a direct question when you book: ask the reservations team to confirm that outside guests are accepted at your chosen venue and time. The same team answers for every venue, which keeps the process to a single call or message.
Which venue to pick for your occasion
Five venues are listed on the hotel's dining page. Here is how each one suits a different kind of visitor, with the details the hotel publishes.
Restaurant 1932 for a special dinner
Restaurant 1932 celebrates Cambodian culinary heritage. As listed in October 2026, it serves dinner daily from 6.00pm to 10.30pm, and it offers four curated tasting menus designed by Chef Dorn Doeurt with Executive Chef Memo Hernandez. Choose it for an anniversary, a birthday or the evening you want to remember from the trip. Confirm before you travel.
The Conservatory for afternoon tea
As listed in October 2026, afternoon tea at The Conservatory is served daily from 2.30pm to 5.30pm, and guests choose between Classic, Signature or Heritage menus. The Conservatory is open daily from 7.00am to 11.00pm, and a resident pianist plays Tuesday to Sunday from 5.30pm to 9.15pm. It suits a calm afternoon after a morning at the temples. Confirm before you travel.
Elephant Bar for a first drink
The hotel describes Elephant Bar as Siem Reap's most celebrated bar. As listed in October 2026, happy hour runs daily from 4.00pm to 6.00pm and a live pianist plays Tuesday to Sunday from 9.30pm to 10.00pm. The signature cocktail is the Airavata, made with rum, coconut, passion fruit, lime juice, creme de banane and pineapple juice. Confirm before you travel.

Cafe d'Angkor for a relaxed meal
Cafe d'Angkor is an all-day brasserie-style restaurant serving pan-Asian cuisine and international favourites at lunch and dinner. As listed in October 2026, lunch runs daily from 12.00pm to 2.30pm and dinner daily from 6.00pm to 10.00pm; once a month a champagne brunch takes place on a selected Sunday. Confirm before you travel. The same restaurant serves the hotel's champagne breakfast, covered on the Raffles breakfast page.

The Poolside Terrace offers light daytime meals, fruity cocktails and a private candlelit dinner. It is the option for a quieter, more personal setting when you would like to celebrate as a pair.
How to book, step by step
Your booking route
- 1Choose the venue and the day, using the hours above.
- 2Call (855) 63 963 888 or write to bookus.siemreap@raffles.com, the contact the hotel lists for dining.
- 3Ask how far ahead the venue likes to be booked for your date. The hotel's page does not publish a lead time, so confirm it with the team.
- 4Ask whether a deposit applies and what the cancellation rule is. These details are absent from the pages we reviewed, so a quick question protects your plans.
- 5Ask the team to confirm that outside guests are accepted at that venue and time.
- 6Save the confirmation and the dress code line before the day.
Booking a few days ahead is a sensible habit for a signature dinner, and the team can tell you the exact lead time that applies to your evening.
What to wear in the Siem Reap heat
Dress codes are published venue by venue, which makes it easy to arrive prepared.
Dress code by venue
- Restaurant 1932: smart elegant attire; the hotel asks guests to leave slip-ons and flip-flops at home.
- The Conservatory: smart casual, with closed footwear rather than slip-ons or flip-flops.
- Elephant Bar: smart casual, again without slip-ons or flip-flops.
- Cafe d'Angkor: casual chic, and dress shorts are allowed at lunch.
In the Siem Reap climate, light fabrics such as linen or cotton keep a smart outfit comfortable on the walk through the gardens. Pack a pair of closed shoes in your bag after a temple day and change at the hotel.
What the evening adds to your trip
The hotel sits in 15 acres of landscaped tropical gardens, in the Old French Quarter of Siem Reap, and its main building was built in French Art Deco style with local influences. Arriving a little early gives you time to walk the grounds before your table.
Live music is part of the rhythm: a resident pianist at The Conservatory and another at Elephant Bar, on the days listed above. On Saturdays the hotel also holds a Cambodian Apsara Dinner in the Raffles Marquee, a Cambodian dining evening for guests who enjoy a cultural program; ask the reservations team how to join as a visitor.
For something playful, the hotel lists a Raffles Gin Craze experience about its gin collection, plus a Siem Reap Food Tour and Art Tour. These are separate experiences, so ask the team how they combine with a dinner reservation.
Turn the dinner into a stay
If the evening makes you wish for a longer visit, Raffles has 119 rooms, suites and villas, and every stay includes a personal butler. Read the Raffles d'Angkor review for who should book, then compare dates.
