Alamo Cafe - Tex-Mex and American Food in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Hi CEO. Alamo Cafe is a new food venue serving Tex-Mex and American cuisine. We are on St. 113 just south of St. 320, across from Toul Sleng. While we have added more tables and fancied the place up a bit compared to what it looked like earlier, it still won’t win any awards for its décor, but we hope you won’t feel the same way about the food.

Now for the important part--the free stuff. Until I post differently, CEO members get one free canned beer or soft drink, or a bottle of water, with each entree purchased. OK, it's not a free car but our profit margins are not that large, either.

If you are calling in for delivery, PLEASE mention this offer at that time. The drivers have no ability to adjust the prices.

Our phone number is 085 540 525. You can check out our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/alamocambodia or the website at https://alamocambodia.com.

Online ordering through the website will be coming whenever I can find time to add it. You can also order through Nham24 and Your Phnom Penh but we have had issues with both of them being very slow to pick up the order, meaning our customers end up with a long wait and cold, soggy food, so I have difficulty recommending them. We look forward to seeing you.

Not sure "american" and "cuisine" belong in the same sentence. TBF Britain usnt known for great cuisine either but a cornish pastie beats a burger hands down

If it is, the plates, knifes and forks should be clean. I 'll try the food there next time I'm going past, cause I like the kitchen/garage atmosphere.

Three tacos--yet another oversight on my part. Looks like another menu update is due. Thanks for pointing it out.

Croquettes isn't possessive, so the apostrophe isn't required.

The car wash comment wasn't a stab, I used to live a few doors down in 348, and last time I drove down 113 saw that they'd remodelled into a cafe looking operation.

I still live nearby, so heartily endorse some good food options in the area, like Babylon on 350, and especially since Rubicon closed up for "renovations" and never reopened and the Indian that lasted about 3 weeks opposite the grilled fish cake strip.

You're gonna need a toilet.

Will​ drop by on the weekend for a bite if I get a chance.

That is the first mistake/oversight that has been found which was actually embarrassing. I blame it on the combination of lack of sleep and the funky font. I actually looked at it two or three time thinking something didn't look right, but failed to spot the errant apostrophe.

I didn't take it as one, I simply have no idea where the car wash used to be. We're in a p'teah levang three doors south of Rubicon.

Toilet highly unlikely unless the business takes off so well at this location that we move our living quarters elsewhere and open a full-fledged restaurant. I'd be somewhat surprised if we got enough dine-in business here to justify doing so rather than moving to a location with more westerners. I do think that BKKII and BKKIII will start getting more and more foreigners in the next few years, as rents in the Russian Market area are rising rapidly.

Bring your appetite.
