One of the Fastest Growing Casual Inline Dining Concepts in the Country!
With more than 10 years in the restaurant industry and solid, proven systems in place, Hurricane Grill & Wings is poised for national growth and is seeking multi- unit partners to join them as they expand across the U.S. Starting with just one location in Florida in 1995, the concept began franchising in 2006 and has grown to more than 30 locations operating in Florida, Georgia and Nevada and has stores in development in New York and Southern California. The chain has aggressive national expansion plans and is on target to open another 200 restaurants by 2010.
An innovative brand in the restaurant industry.
The menu reflects a unique brand culture that encourages "living with flavor’ in a relaxing atmosphere unlike any other in the casual dining segment. At Hurricane Grill & Wings our guests can select from more than 30 proprietary and unique sauces and rubs to customize their fresh wings, all natural chicken, 100% certified angus beef, grilled mahi, tender shrimp, natural cut french fries and many other menu items.
Winner of the "Festival Favorite" Award at the National Buffalo Wing Festival.
Our product speaks for itself! Hurricane Grill & Wings was voted the "Festival Favorite" at the 2007 National Buffalo Wing Festival where more than 74,000 people gathered to sample the nation’s best wings. Our culinary team was also awarded two additional creative awards for our Thai Ginger and Garlic Sauce and Spicy Piña Colada Sauce.
Simple Operation, Small Footprint.
Hurricane Grill & Wings offers the unique opportunity to be in the full service arena in a small box. At an average of 1,800 square feet, our restaurants are designed to deliver sales-to-investment ratios that rank among the best in the casual dining segment. Our smaller footprint allows for lower overhead and labor costs than the "big box" casual dining concepts while allowing us to capitalize on the key day parts and drive high volumes by focusing on takeout, which currently accounts for approximately 20% of our sales.

Our Heritage.
In 1995, 22-year-old Chris Russo opened Hurricane Grill & Wings as a single beachside location in Fort Pierce, Florida. Creating a laid-back and welcoming environment reflective of the surrounding community, Chris focused on capturing a sense of easy-going relaxation in the restaurant. It didn’t take long for guests from near and far to crave the more than 30 proprietary flavor varieties of award winning sauces and rubs, which have become the signature of the Hurricane Grill & Wings menu. Chris opened two more locations over the following 10 years and in 2005 formed Hurricane Brand Holdings, LLC with Chairman, Mike Matakaetis to franchise the brand.
