Thank you, Angkor Borei, for staying affordable, even when San Francisco wasn’t. The Cambodian restaurant appeared on Mission Street in Bernal Heights in the late 1980s, and became a regular on The Chronicle’s annual Bargain Bites lists. After a remodel dressed up the dining room in 2017, Tara
Duggan wrote that the prices stayed low, with the most expensive dishes, involving seafood, topping out at $11.95. Angkor Borei announced its closure in June with the last day of business on June 15. It was not the only bad news for Bernal Heights, which also lost Ichi Sushi. There aren’t enough places like Angkor Borei, bringing culture into a neighborhood and staying accessible to the masses for more than 20 years.
