New Quarter is definitely worth it and I’m keen to come back for more and for another special occasion! Came with a friend for a dinner for two and catch up. With no reservation, we were placed at the bar. Though the table may seem small, it was plenty of space for two people who had plenty of banter.
Having an early dinner has its perks as we were greeted and served from start to finish by all the workers in the establishment. Offered drinks and placed orders immediately. Our food was staggered to ensure we could enjoy each meal and their flavours. Started with a tofu salad that was extremely appetizing. Following, we had crispy pork and the green curry come after. Crispy pork was great and flavourful with a kimchi side, extra sauce and salt if needed to enhance it. Green curry wasn’t spicy and was extremely filling with large quantities of vegetables.All dishes were shareable and we still had enough to take away.
Service was truly impeccable and I felt very welcomed and cared for throughout the dinner. Atmosphere was great and it was perfect with drinks to keep it up beat.

Came back here in a month just for the beef tartare and it was perfect again.
Super fresh, balanced and uniquely flavourful.
Other dishes were great too and service was lovely.
Will keep returning!

First time trying a modernised Vietnamese fusion cuisine, and after trying it we realised its catered more to fit Caucasian people’s taste. My dining group is entirely Vietnamese and obviously love the flavours and taste of Viet food so we decided to check this place out.
The atmosphere was dimly lit and beautiful, however weren’t as gorgeous as we expected from the photos and videos shown on the media. It also felt weird that the bathroom was separated from the restaurant and is shared between other businesses, you had to walk through a parking garage to get to it. The service was great, we were often attended to and were approached with happy and positive attitude throughout the night!
Let’s get on to the food; we ordered the banh mi pate, corn and betel leaf, mushroom bun, kingfish tartare, beef tartare with pho jelly, roasted chicken and duck floss noodles. Everything was pretty average and nothing stood out to us. We recommend the mushroom bun and pho gravy, the portion of the kingfish was quite small and the plate consisted mostly of the salad to wrap it in. The beef tartare wasn’t very flavourful and the fried crisps were super vinegary and sour, which overpowered the entire dish which we didn’t like.
Then came the mains, the chicken was in a pretty flavourful sauce and had a good roasted flavour, however the duck floss noodles were pretty sweet and bland.
We weren’t satisfied with the flavours of every dish here so we didn’t end up ordering dessert and went elsewhere. Great experience however wouldn’t come back to try this cuisine again. Understandable how this may be impressive to other ethnics taste palate, however at the end of the day it isn’t authentic and is a watered down version of the aromatic and fresh flavours that Vietnamese cuisine brings.

Been on the Vietnamese fusion food spot grind and I have to say I’ve been missing out big time. I loved the ambiance of the restaurant and I loved the causal dining vibes for lunch !!

I have to say one of my favourite dishes would have to be the beef tartare, that is something that was very unique with the addition of the pho jelly. All the elements meshed so well together: the texture of the pho jelly, the creaminess of the egg yolk and the freshness of the shiso leaves and red onion. The banh mi finger was also amazing however we felt as tho there was too much pate (I know how could there ever be too much) and could have done with a little more acidity from pickles. Loved the crispy pork belly with banh hoi – can’t go wrong with such a traditional dish! We would personally skip on the duck noodles as we thought it was a little too heavy on the sauce making it a bit saltier. The snapper was nice but we didn’t think it was special.

We were really impressed by the Vietnamese and broader Asian-inspired fusion dishes here. The fine-chopped fresh vegetables were beautifully prepared and showed great attention to detail. The chicken liver pâté in the banh mi was smooth and flavorful, the oysters were fresh with no fishy taste, the Korean-style crispy pork belly was spot on, and the barramundi simply melted in the mouth.
Western-Asian fusion can be hit or miss, but here it felt both familiar and exciting — creative without trying too hard. The staff were friendly and attentive even during busy hours, which we really appreciated.
The space is modern with great music, making it a perfect place to unwind and enjoy a nice dinner after work. Highly recommend!

Went to New Quarter for lunch & ordered the lemongrass beef salad and the crispy pork belly. The lemongrass beef was tender and very flavourful, the pork belly was less so-though assembling the mini wraps was a fun touch. Overall the food was decent and good value, but the wait for food to be served was over 30 minutes. Had planned to order desserts, but decided against it in case it meant another long wait. The venue itself was modern and cosy.

Selected this restaurant for a relaxed family dinner on a Sunday night and it was exactly as it was said it would be . Right from entry with fabulous staff not only directing us to a lovely corner table but taking our heavy jackets away . The ambience was lovely not noisy but just right for a Sunday night .
We were there at 7.30pm and at no point of time did we feel rushed by the staff . The food and wine selection is definitely 7 star and the every food crafted to perfection in look and taste .
Would love to return

Had such a great meal here. The food was amazing and our server was lovely and easygoing. They were also fantastic with my food intolerances — super accommodating and made it stress-free to order, which I really appreciated.
Everything tasted great, but the sando was definitely the standout. So good. Would absolutely come back.
