#4 Piccola Italia Da Luigi

This place has quite a reputation for their tasty pizzas, so no one ever really bothered ordering anything else off the menu. As a matter of fact, they have superb spaghetti as well! But sadly, it’s only available at their Toul Tompoung branch.

#6 Aria D’Italia

We’ve been told by foreigners that this place has authentic pastas, and it’s a must try place! But the downside is the serving proportion, not really satisfying for those with big appetites.

#8 Pizzeria Matteo Phnom Penh

Okay here’s another place, but their décor is bit different from the others mentioned above, a bit fancy looking I say. But they have spaghetti lunch set, which comes with (of course) a spaghetti dish, a salad, and an orange juice.
