Adelaide\u2019s northeast, but two businesses would need to be demolished.<\/p>\n<p>Grill\u2019d has lodged plans with Port Adelaide Enfield Council to build a new restaurant on the corner of North East Rd and Elm St at Hampstead Gardens. <\/p>\n<p>Spanning 261 sqm, the restaurant would feature an indoor dining area with 73 seats and a further 38-seat outdoor alfresco area. <\/p>\n<p>The two-lane drive-through would have two waiting bays and enough space for up to 12 queued vehicles \u2013 intending to reduce the possibility of traffic backing up on to the main road. <\/p>\n<p>All existing buildings and fixtures on the 2320 sqm site would be removed, including two commercial companies \u2013 an outdoor car wash business and a trailer hire business, according to planning documents. <\/p>\n<p>There would also be 23 carparking spaces and four bike spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the other Grill\u2019d restaurants across Adelaide, the new restaurant would operate every day, around the clock. <\/p>\n<p>Planning documents stated that nearby residential properties will not be affected by noise levels if the restaurant operates 24\/7.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the hours, it is more likely for patrons to frequent the drive-through, utilising the fast service of the operator to enter and exit the site in a timely manner,\u201d planning documents read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe siting of the development ensures that patrons within the alfresco area are unlikely to generate a level of noise perceivable from the residential abuttals. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrill\u2019d do not operate like a \u2018bar\u2019 or \u2018hotel\u2019 in which unruly behaviour is common, rather operating as a family-friendly restaurant whereby patron behaviour is much more low maintenance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If approved, the new restaurant would become the sixth Grill\u2019d restaurant in Adelaide, adding to the list of venues at Marion, Norwood, Rundle St, Tea Tree Plaza and Unley. <\/p>\n<p>Public consulation closes on June 19.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A popular \u2018healthy\u2019 burger chain is grilling up plans to open its first 24\/7
