Hurricane Grill & Wings is a vibrant American restaurant franchise specializing in jumbo-sized wings and casual dining. Founded in April 1995 by Chris Russo in Fort Pierce, Florida, it quickly gained a following with its beachfront atmosphere and over 35 signature sauces.
The brand’s laid-back, tropical vibe and menu featuring crispy wings, half-pound burgers, seafood tacos, and a robust beer list help it stand out in the crowded bar-and-grill segment.
The company began franchising in 2006, leveraging rapid growth from its original location. By January 2008, Hurricane Grill & Wings had opened around 30 units across Florida, Georgia, and Nevada and launched a franchising initiative that continues today.
Its current corporate headquarters are located in West Palm Beach, Florida, under the ownership of FAT Brands, a Beverly Hills-based multi-brand restaurant operator. Today, Hurricane Grill & Wings sells made-to-order wings, burgers, sandwiches, seafood, sides, and a wide selection of beers in casual, beach-themed venues.

Hurricane Grill & Wings provides a structured training program to support franchisees in successfully launching and operating their restaurants. This training is critical and must be completed prior to opening for business.
Hurricane Grill & Wings does not offer exclusive territory protection to its franchisees. The franchise documents do not guarantee that another Hurricane Grill & Wings location will not be opened near an existing franchise. This means the franchisor may establish additional units, including co-branded locations, in close proximity.
Franchisees are expected to operate without assurance of market exclusivity. The absence of territorial protection implies that nearby competition from other franchisees or company-owned units is possible. Therefore, Hurricane Grill & Wings franchisees do not receive a protected geographic area.
