Mr Collins and his partner Aleeca Waterman said the new dining option at Hervey Bay would provide a reawakening for seafood and steak lovers.
âI think Hervey Bay lacks a venue that people can go to and they know that all the seafood truly is local or Australian,â Ms Waterman said.
Aleeca Waterman and Saul Collins announce their new restaurant, Banksia Seafood and Grill.
Since the pandemic closed The Vinyard indefinitely Mr Collins was in search of a new project.
The couple previously owned a boathouse restaurant in Warrnambool, Victoria called Proudfoots By the River, which they hope to recreate.
