The cuisine is very different than Thai. Much more liberal use of black pepper and largely a fear of (chili) heat.

Cambodia is the only place in Asia where I find the local food is something I prefer to not bother with.

I'm not sure what you mean in regards 'rave reviews' but the place is mostly a tourist trap.
