Located at West End, Franks Seafood wholesale and direct shop front is unmissable with its beautiful mural by local artist Gus Elkington.

Sirromet’s signature restaurant, Restaurant Lurleen’s is renowned for the very best, fresh wild-caught and sustainably farmed seafood, showcasing a wide variety from some of the most well-known regions throughout Australia. Some of which include saltwater Barramundi from the Daintree in Far North Queensland and Cone Bay in Western Australia, oysters from Coffin Bay in South Australia, Queensland prawns, Goldband snapper and John Dory from Northern and Southern Australia, as well as MSC Tuna.

With a particular focus on ensuring all produce has been farmed utilising sustainable practices, Franks Seafood is a proud supplier of MSC certified sustainable Tuna. MSC labelled tuna comes from a fishery that has been independently assessed to the MSC Fisheries Standard, ensuring fish stocks and habitats are healthy and fishing community livelihoods are secure.

“A visit to Restaurant Lurleen’s is more than just the food, it is a dining experience and it is important that our customers know where our produce is from and I try to emphasis that on each menu and through staff education” Said Mat
