Hurricane Grill & Wings - Levittown


Wings fan? Then venturing to Hurricane Grill and Wings in Levittown is a MUST! From jumbo wings to boneless wings, from Garlic Parmesan to Honey Glazed, Hurricane Grill has every kind of wing you could dream of to satisfy your craving. You may want to do yourself a favor and check out the menu in advance because there are THAT many wonderful (calorie filled) options... you could possibly spend an hour just reviewing the menu.

The theme is a tropical beach paradise. You truly are transported to a cool island bar scene on a sunny day. It's a super casual, "get a beer and watch the game" type of joint. Both the dining room and bar area are quite small so make sure you go during off-peak dining hours. It's becoming a local hot spot!Alex and I started with "on the bone" Mango BBQ Sauce Wings which consisted of a tropical barbecue glaze with mango, ginger, pineapple and lime flavorings. They were delectable and all white meat. I have also sampled the nachos during a subsequent visit to Hurricane Grill. The nachos were tasty, but only if you enjoy Mexican style. I would recommend another appetizer such as the fried pickles - yum!

For my main course, I decided on a mixture of boneless Teriyaki Wings and BBQ Wings. The Teriyaki was a blend of soy sauce, ginger, and exotic spices, topped with sesame seeds. The BBQ was a southern smokehouse taste and I experienced a light crunch and burst of flavor with each bite... perfection! The sauces were plentiful, but not too much where it's sloppy and dripping all over the place. Alex had the Cajun Rub Wings on the bone as well as the Jamaican Jerk Salad, both of which he thoroughly enjoyed. A fan of spicy foods, Alex noted that the salad left him with a "delightful burn" after every bite. I have also sampled the traditional Hurricane Wings (Buffalo sauce) which "blew" it's competition, Buffalo Wild Wings, out of the water!

Hurricane Grill's more than 30 wing flavors are put into numbered categories based on their level of spiciness, which is appropriate for their Hurricane theme! The categories range from a Category 1 (calm before the storm) to a Category 5 (seek shelter!). It's safe to say if you are not looking for Alex's "delightful burn," stick with Category 3 or below.

Hurricane Grill and Wings is definitely worthy of 5 out of 5 Mints on the Dinner Mint Scale. Well done! Hurricane Grill and Wings on Urbanspoon
