Nieuw Amsterdam is the “nieuw” kid on the block showcasing some good American tucker for the Melbourne masses. We had a Nieuw Reuben sandwich, grits fritters with sweet corn and a tray of pork meat with salad. The meat was deliciously tender and perfectly cooked and that grits fritters put a sweet twist on your regular corn fritter. I recommend it for some good food but I did find the service to be conflicting, a rather pushy waitress (I assume the front of house manager) wanted us to order within the half about and on the other hand, we also had pleasant friendly waiter who addressed our every concern. Nevertheless, I would come back to taste that tender meat again. Oh and the popping candy berry split! I was surprised how good this was!
