Why it's worth checking out
New Quarter sits on Swan Street in Richmond, a lively inner-eastern suburb of Melbourne. A much-loved restaurant specialising in modern Vietnamese cuisine, it's earned a strong reputation — combining quality, flavour-packed Vietnamese cooking with a good drinks offering and a fun, characterful setting, the kind of accomplished, lively spot that's become a genuine favourite on the Swan Street strip.
The appeal is that combination of quality, modern Vietnamese food, a good drinks-and-cocktail offering and a vibrant, characterful atmosphere in a great Richmond location, ideal for a meal with friends, a date, drinks and a feed or a sociable night out. Quality Vietnamese with a contemporary touch and a fun vibe is a genuine drawcard, and New Quarter has clearly won over a big, loyal following.
