    Had friends in town and took them to Banksia, as we have had great experiences there before. As predicted the evening was a big hit. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Proud to take interstate visitors to Banksia to showcase fresh and creative seafood. Service is always attentive. We were having such a great time, last to leave and staff patiently didn't rush us out the door. Remains at the top of my list for Hervey Bay local dining. The artwork exhibiting our local talent is a bonus. Thanks Banksia.

    Staff were attentive, but not over the top. Decor was upmarket in comparison to other Hervey Bay restaurants. Food was lovely , beautiful presentation- definitely a place to return to. Prices were to be expected, we did have cocktails before & coffee liquors after dinner plus a couple of glasses of wine- so the account could have been reduced, but that’s all part of the experience!
