Hurrica Restaurant & Bar

Our evening was delightful! The food was delicious! Interesting but not complicated with thought and finesse. Cocktails were equally as good. First time and it won’t be my last. The restaurant is beautiful with nods to all things nautical. They even have a live jellyfish tank. The staff is friendly and attentive. This is a new established and I highly recommend trying it. You can’t beat the waterfront location either.

I found this place last minute for a family lunch. The breeze and views were so nice we ended up staying almost 5 hours just enjoying the beautiful atmosphere this place offers. We had an amazing lunch, food was very good, not a single complaint. Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Drinks were all very good and everyone loved the live jellyfish wall. We will probably come back here everytime we meet out here for lunch or dinner. The dinner menu looked so amazing, that we already made plans to come try it out. Beautiful atmosphere, lots of parking, amazing breeze off the water and views are a plus.

Beautiful restaurant! It's the perfect place to have dinner while enjoying a view of the bay. Not to mention the beauty of the inside!. The jellyfish tank inside is especially pretty and pleasant to look at while enjoying your meal. All of the food and cocktails were delicious and the atmosphere was so lively and wonderful! I greatly enjoyed spending time with my family while we got to enjoy our food and the scenery. The fresh oysters and tuna sashimi especially were one of my favorite things there. Honestly the best oysters I've ever had! Would definitely recommend as the perfect spot to have brunch or dinner!

Definitely a hidden gem! Great spot for lunch or Brunch! Fresh oysters were great and so were the cocktails! Servers are all nice and professional! Great food and expected the price to be more but it’s priced very decently! Not expensive at all for what it has to offer! Definitely recommend!

Look at the views! We had a lovely dinner on the patio. Great option for a date night, it’s very quiet and peaceful by the harbor. Food and drinks were delicious, I only wish there were some more entree and dessert options.

Went for a birthday dinner, recommended by when MZ turned the wheel & it stopped on Hurrica. They went for drinks & small bites and raved about. Ssoo of course we had to check it out too. This place is located at the edge of Seaport in Redwood City. You’d never know it’s there. The restaurant is connected to West Point Yacht Club, the landscape & building are an architectural eye catching and just lures you in to explore. You’ll see huge wooden yachts similar to what we saw in Monaco. When you enter the bar is to the right the teal granite slabs surrounded the fully stocked bar, an aquarium wall with jellyfish similar to Water Bar’s columns. My company had our Xmas party there and has the same grander feel. The food is superb, served & presented in sync and served hot. We had grilled squid stuffed with chicken sausage, a dozen assorted oysters, whole fished that was deboned right in front of us, braised short ribs, wagu beef, warm bread (like pandaleche) with coconut & ube butter. The cocktails were on point & generously poured. It was one to remember and rave about to fam & friends. We can’t wait to go back! Even the bathroom was like a gallery. The servers were so attentive, happy and had great recommendations….get this the butter knives were propped up!!

Great atmosphere and a bit off the beaten path. The food and drinks are great and the service is awesome. If you're sitting outside on a cold night ask for a blanket to keep your legs warm. The steak was cooked perfectly, but the veggies were a little salty. Perhaps it was intentional to balance the sweet sauce next to the steak.

This is an updated review for Hurrica. We have been here many times since the opening with friends or just the two of us. Service has gotten better from our past experiences. Though during this visit we had a bit of a challenge at the beginning, our server Juan made up for it. He gave us wonderful and attentive service. Cheers to Juan!! Bar area is elegant amd fun. Indoor seating is fresh and beautifully designed. The outdoor seating is lovely with a view of the harbor and the bay. Food was tasty. The scallop appetizer is beautifully plated and flavorful. The halibut dish was also beautifully presented and outstanding. The sauce with mushroom ragout was perfection. Will also come back for the seafood chowder. The food and location are a big draw for us.

Food was great - I had the bass and my guest had the swordfish. The service was very good, especially the server who took the time to tell us about Hurrica and to give us sauce and mandarin oranges to take home. The interior is attractive, but very noisy and it was difficult to have a conversation. Hurrica charges a mandatory 3% fee on top of the bill for employee healthcare. It would be more transparent to include that upfront in the prices rather in the menu's fine print. Overall: great food and service, but go during non-peak hours if you want to converse.

Wow what a great evening! The hospitality and atmosphere was very welcoming. Didn't have a reservation but the staff made the best effort to accommodate 2. The drinks were well made and the bar staff were attentive ! Cosmopolitan martini was well portioned and the hibiscus margaritas w mezcal was soooo fire! Had the oyster appetizer and they were fresh and savory! Ordered the clam chowder w bread and that was a perfect start! I had the cod w mushrooms and it was super flavorful! We also tried the swordfish and it was gamey but tasteful! Was not a fan of the beans but not bad. Appreciated the creative dish that MeeSon (spelling?) sent over and our server Jonathan had amazing customer service ! Definitely will come again and try the surf n turf next time!

From the moment we entered the doors of Hurrica, we were visually delighted by the wraparound bar in gorgeous marble, an enormous floral arrangement accenting one end. As we followed our host to one of two dining rooms, we passed a wall of wine to our left and a 1700-gallon jellyfish tank on our right. Seated at a booth with the jellyfish tank directly behind me, I found it difficult to face my husband, as I wanted only to stare at the incredible display of undulating, mesmerizing movement. From the wine recommendation given by previous somm and current GM of Hurrica, I enjoyed Chablis by the glass from start to finish. An amuse bouche of Shellfish Chowder appeared in perfect espresso cups, followed by the incredible Warm Milk Bread served beside an ube spread and coconut butter (I will never not order this). The Big Eye Tuna Sashimi, Hamachi Sashimi, and Broiled Live Sea Scallop were fresh, and perfectly paired with each of their accompaniments. Their size is such an easy addition to any order. Finally, the entree course arrived and both were mouth-watering. The dorade was deboned table-side and the texture was soft while the fish itself was beautifully mild - an excellent pairing with our other dish, the Red Wine Braised Beef Short Rib. A 'surf and turf,' if you will. The short rib was tender and flavorful, while without excessive marbling. It will be hard to order anything else our next visit, so perfect were each of our selections. Most importantly, we felt truly cared for. Each member of the staff was excellent, honing their craft and creating a comfortable, elevated atmosphere. I truly cannot wait to see the view during daylight hours, so beautiful was the view at night, the lights twinkling and reflecting in the marina.

This restaurant is very beautiful. The jellyfish tank was the highlight for me! The waiters were very kind and attentive except for the fact that they didn't ask if anyone in our party had peanut allergies. The lunch time crowd was pretty chatty which made it tough to hear across the table but it was great energy nevertheless. Aside from that, the steak was very gamey and I didn't expect that, so i asked to change my order and they were very accommodating. The seafood chowder was good! I'd definitely visit Hurrica again to try out the dinner menu.

Hurrica Restaurant & Bar in Redwood City is a fantastic spot with a lot to love, though there were a couple of hiccups during our visit. My date and I arrived for our 8 PM reservation and were seated immediately, which was a great start. I had my puppy with me, and they were super accommodating, seating us outdoors where the space heaters kept us toasty for most of the evening. Bonus points for being dog-friendly - there were a few other pups outside, and my little one had the best time! We started off with a small plate, the local hilt carpaccio, which was a delightful way to begin the meal. The Mendocino uni that came with it was absolutely delicious, especially when paired with the crackers - such a rich, creamy treat. We also enjoyed a dozen oysters, which paired perfectly with the bottle of white wine the sommelier recommended. We wanted something balanced - not too dry, not too sweet - and they absolutely delivered. For our mains, we ordered the achiote marinated swordfish and the pan-roasted black cod. Both dishes were outstanding! The cod was beautifully flavorful, and I especially loved the mushrooms, which added a wonderful depth to the dish. The swordfish had this sweet, umami-rich flavor that I'm pretty sure came from the green tangerine - such a thoughtful and delicious touch. One of the unexpected highlights? The buttermilk bread with ube spread. Oh my gosh, it was perfection. The bread was warm and fluffy, and that creamy ube spread was an absolute game-changer. Another standout feature of the restaurant was the wall with live jellyfish swimming gracefully. It added such a unique, mesmerizing touch to the atmosphere and really elevated the high-end vibe of the place. That said, there was one downside: the service slowed toward the end. It took about 15-20 minutes to get the bill, and by that time, the heaters weren't cutting it anymore - we were freezing. That wait left a bit of a sour note on an otherwise stellar night. Overall, Hurrica Restaurant & Bar is definitely worth a visit, especially if you're looking for great seafood, a killer sommelier, and a dog-friendly atmosphere. The jellyfish wall alone is worth checking out! Just bring a jacket and maybe a little patience for the check at the end!

What a beautiful restaurant! Love the idyllic location. Coming here during sunset is especially romantic. The live jellyfish tank is also mesmerizing. Service is warm and friendly. The warm milk bread is a must order. One of the best I've had. I'd come here just for this. The honey squash dumpling was good but not memorable so skip. Grilled cauliflower was a good portion. Whole roasted dorade was nicely deboned table side and can absolutely feed at least three people. Nice kimchee friend rice too. The champagne cake was so good! Definitely do not skip dessert. Easy to get a reservation for early seating but the place filled up fast so make sure to get a reservation.

This is a great spot and I highly recommend it! The location is very scenic right by the water. The decor is beautiful (loved the jellyfish, they are mesmerizing) and reminded me of the Waterbar in the city which is not surprising given that they are sister restaurants. The food was excellent! The cocktails were very good. The milk bread with ube butter was a big hit. The sashimi (it was odd naming since it came with rice like ngiri) was excellent. The short rib with truffles was delicious and so was the Clam Chowder. The owner stopped by to chat with us and she was very hospitable and clearly knows what she is doing. I wish them the very best!

It's been a few months since we went here for my husbands birthday so my feelings have subsided a bit, but I was so unhappy with the service here that I needed to wait to leave a review The food however was AMAZING. The bone marrow was delightful, the pesto was so flavorful, and my pork was HUGE! I also enjoyed the spin on the carrot cake and the unique flavors it had. It's too bad that our service was very slow and lackluster. We waited for extensive periods of time without seeing our server and when we did ask for him he seemed very flustered and taken aback by our requests. Our evening ended with service from a gentleman who seemed to be the manager so we were able to leave on a positive note.

It was good! For the price, I don't think the food was worth it though. The dishes seemed really complicated? I don't know exactly what it was but something just wasn't right. My favorite food item was the bread. Drinks were FABULOUS! I would come back and sit at the bar just to order drinks, the view is also amazing. Service was good. Overall I'd go back for drinks and bread, but I'd get entrees and appetizers elsewhere.

Oh my goodness. Elegance, beauty, peaceful ambiance, fresh delicious quality ingredients, delicious dishes, and attentive staff & owners are only some of the amazing qualities of this gem! I love love love their soups, loved their short rib sliders (with the perfect onion ring - easy to bite through -onion doesn't slide out), their chicken sandwich. Mmmmmm!!!!! $1.99 oyster specials have been a great deal too! Had this a few times and each time delicious and perfect sized oysters. Even their bathrooms are beautiful, welcoming, peaceful & so well thought out with places for your purse and slightly magnifying mirrors to check your makeup! Their jellyfish tank is incredible. We've come here several times, and it's been fun to see the jellyfish "grow up"! Beautiful views of the bay too. Perfectly situated heat lamps outside. As I said, so well and thoughtfully planned out & executed. The last time we went there was after I picked up my husband from the airport, on the way home. It was like a mini vacation! Thank you Hurrica! We look forward to our next dining experience!

More of a tourist spot rather than a foodie spot, go for the ambiance and view but don't have high expectations on the food itself. Cool bathroom decor but too dark inside. Short rib Benedict looked pretty but was WAY too salty! Steak skewers were chewy and there were just 2 of them, flavors were off and mismatched. Drinks were average taste for being so overpriced.

Amazing! Didn't know this even existed. Same building as the yatcht club but the entrance is further down around the corner. Plenty of parking, there's a sign immediately before the turn which says "next right"... it should really say "turn right". They have lunch and dinner. Definitely bougie, but worth it!! Door opens up to the host/hostess counter then the bar is within view to the right. Beyond that you can barely see the amazing jelly fish tank around the corner. (Tip: They eat 6 times a day!) Ordered oysters- amazing! Seafood chowder was good Bread is beyond good... then dipped that in the sauce of the clam. Wow! Wasn't super hungry so didn't get entree. Came back for lunch and it was still amazing! Great weather right by the water. Home run. Drinks great too! Though... depends on the bartender. First time was better than the second time when I visited.

Ambiance is 5 stars. Right on the water and the big jellyfish tank is mesmerizing. Food was fine- split the burger. Nothing special and the fries were not crispy. However, the star of the show was the special dessert- pumpkin bread pudding- omg so good! Overall this is a good spot for date night or to bring future family you're trying to impress. Service was good not great. Overall 4/5

Our good friends found Hurrica via an article on SF gate and invited us here to celebrate our engagement. It's a new, beautiful restaurant complete with a jellyfish-filled aquarium right in the middle. That in itself was cool, but it's even cooler when it lights up at night! We loved everything we got, but the ahi tuna tartare and the strawberry shortcake were standouts. I must have been so excited to dig into my seafood chowder I forgot to take a pic. They also offer a $1.99 oyster of the day at the bar and a glass of a featured wine for $8 with the minimum purchase of one oyster. The day we went it was a small to medium sized oyster from BC. One poke with my fork and I knew it was super creamy, so I passed. We sat on the patio which was a bit windy and chilly, but the blankets and heat lamps helped. Stellar service too! Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown RWC, I don't know if I would ever come across this place on my own. So glad we were introduced to Hurrica and look forward to trying dinner there in the near future.

I want to review the service at this restaurant. I was so surprised that at a nice restaurant like this was majorly lacking in service during our dinner. Very inattentive and aloof waiter. It unfortunately ruined my husbands birthday dinner. After notifying the GM about our bad experience, he responded promptly and sent us a gift card to come give Hurrica a second chance. No appreciated this very much and we will give it another try.

12/8/2024 Sunday Lunch I've been meaning to try out Hurrica for their oyster special and was pleasantly surprised to find they offer it during weekend lunch hours. They feature $1.99 oysters (limit two dozen per table), so naturally, we went for the full two dozen. The oysters were fresh, crisp, and a great start to the meal. We also tried the crab and beet salad, shellfish chowder, Dover sole, and coconut panna cotta for dessert. Every dish was well-executed, delivering flavors and presentation on par with a one-Michelin-star restaurant. The service was attentive overall, though there were a couple of minor faux pas: reaching for an empty plate from behind my back/booth and forgetting our wine order. The restaurant is tucked away at the end of Redwood Shores near the yacht pier, offering a serene escape from the usual hustle and bustle. It's the perfect spot for a leisurely lunch followed by a stroll on a nice day. The interior is festive with the holiday decorations. They even have a live jelly fish tank! Wondering if it lights up in the evening. Will be back for another meal for sure!

Off the beaten path, this restaurant at the far east end of Redwood City has an amazing view. A feast for the eyes is the key here. The decor is fantastic and the food and cocktails look incredible too. Unfortunately, the taste just didn't hit the mark. For many of the cocktails and food, they have a lot of ingredients. If they had cut out just one or two of those ingredients, the dish or cocktail would still be unique and interesting and not have too much going on. Our favorites were the more simple things that were just executed beautifully. We would highly recommend the milk bread rolls that came with a delicious sauce. And also the side of wild mushrooms. The slight char with just a bit of salt let the mushrooms shine. The mussels in pesto were okay but the guanciale was confusing and hard to chew. The fish dishes were fine, but nothing that special relative to the price. This may have been a lower rating but the service was top notch. Just the right level of attentiveness. The recommendations were accurate; it was probably our mistake for not following them more consistently.

Came here for lunch and dinner and both were different but awesome experiences. For lunch it was pretty busy and sat at the bar area which had nice views of the bar and jellyfish tank. Had espresso martinis and they were delicious. The tri-tip was cooked well and enough for a lunch portion. The kumamoto oysters were delicious and shucked well. My friend also enjoyed her sole. Now Dinner was definitely a better range of options. And our group ordered a good amount. Big eye tuna sashimi and warm milk bread- were the favorite of the night. I ate them so fast before I could take a picture but a must try. Prime rib- it was sliced thinner than usual but it was extremely tender and seasoned well. Shellfish chowder- was alittle more on the watery side as I'm used to a chunky chowder and while it tasted good, I would not order it again. Lobster ravioli- it had a butter sauce that complemented the lobster inside so well. I would recommend trying. Onion rings- were my least favorite, did not think the fat powder tasted like anything and in my opinion is a skip New york strip roast- although I did not personally try this, my friends got this dish and fed 2 of them with leftovers Overall, it is loud inside as everyone's conversations echoes but the service and food were amazing. I would come back to try other dishes for dinner!

Nice restaurant, great location and ambiance! The food is good and service is very attentive. We had a large group for a surprise birthday and everyone enjoyed their meal, kids too! Online booking and reservations worked better for me than going through events. One of the best restaurants on the Peninsula.

I really wanted to love this restaurant because I'm a big fan of the Mersea team but the food was very disappointing on our visit. I do plan to visit again as I'm hopeful it was just an off day for the kitchen. The restaurant is beautifully decorated - even the attention to detail for the restrooms are gorgeous and reminds me of being under the ocean! There is a big aquarium of jellyfish that was peaceful and classy. Nautical theme was very well executed throughout and fitting for its location next to the marina. The patio, open kitchen, bar, seating spaces - very nice! About the food, I had expected delicious, well executed dishes given the team's pedigree (from SF EPIC and Waterbar) but it well below average for even a hole in the wall, very strange. I didn't know it's possible to screw up fish and chips but discovered the reality during lunch - it was extremely dry and nearly all batter with an unusually small ratio of fish, which might have led to its dryness. The seared mahi dish was also extremely dry and was inedible without drowning it with the sun choke. It's just not possible for an ocean themed restaurant to screw up fish so badly, so I have to believe it was a one off because of the July 4th holiday? The drinks were good as the soft serve ice cream was delicious! The hostess and customers were all super friendly and upbeat! We felt very welcome and loved the ambiance. The restaurant has a great vibe! Interestingly, our server was not particularly warm relative to everyone else nor proactive but she was functional once prompted and did stop by once to check on us when we flagged her down for water refill. The restaurant is a bit off the beaten path and located amongst office parks so there's plenty of free parking and you can drive there via car or boat as it's right next to the marina! Beautiful wrap around patio for intimate meals or bigger get together. Very nice venue. Hope the food is better next time around!

As you drive to Hurrica, you may wonder "Where is my GPS taking me?" The answer: Sensational seafood on the bayside of the San Francisco Peninsula. This restaurant (with a private yacht club upstairs) feels both high end and accessible. The interior design is meticulous--from lighting in the bathroom that mimics the glow of the sun underwater to the open kitchen with wood burning stove. And I haven't even mentioned the food! Amazing fresh oysters and the sashimi are not to be missed. The steak was the perfect medium rare, and the Dorade with fried rice was fresh, flavorful and filling. Bring a date, your family or your co-workers. Everyone will love Hurrica!

I celebrated my birthday with my wife and her best friend and husband at Hurrica, a waterfront restaurant on the "Silicon Valley Riviera". We had the most amazing time here. The location at the West Point Marina was scenic, and the restaurant was beautiful inside and out, with marine-themed architectural details such as a sea horse and an octopus shaped door handles. The bar was gorgeous, with a 1,200 gallon jellyfish tank behind the bar giving patrons a mesmerizing view. Hurrica has a great selection of wines and cocktails. The menu included small plates, bites, fire roasted items from their hearth, and main entrees. We started with the warm milk bread and broiled live sea scallops, then moved on to salted springs mussels, roasted wild mushrooms. For the mains we shared the whole roasted dorade and pork chops. The portions for the mains were generous and enough to share. For desserts we had the warm apple cake and the pineapple panna cotta. Our meal was wonderful. We enjoyed every dish which took on signature flavors from their fire hearth. The service staff was wonderful. They checked on us often to clear the dishes and make sure we were doing good. They have a two hour time limit for their dining tables, and we unknowingly exceeded it. I respected the courteous way the server and then the co-owner Meesun let us know that other diners were waiting for our table. Meesun invited us to the bar and instructed the bartender to provide complimentary drinks to our small group. She even offered to take photos for us at the bar and in front of the restaurant. What a gracious host! We definitely will come back for our next special occasion!!

We went to Hurrica twice in the last couple months. A friend introduced this place to us so we went. It was after a whole bunch of new industrial buildings, but then when we arrived it makes sense it's right in front of water like the harbor view (it's connected with a yacht club). There is a huge beautiful boat right there. You really can't beat this view. They have outdoor patio and it's dog friendly. So it's perfect for us. Our dogs have a lot of space to stretch out. Food wise, be aware it's bite size. Small portion. But they have a very unique menu. All the dishes are super creative. So I think it's well worth it. The simplest bread is famous here (Milk Bread). I really loved the roasted mushroom dish. As a pescatarian you and go wrong with the salmon and sesame noodle. But this time my favorite thing was the ahi tuna tartare. It came with nori sheets. So you can make a sushi roll out of it. It was delicious! And of course everything came with beautiful presentations. The desserts are very pretty and creative too. Definitely try the devil's chocolate cake. Beautiful indoor seating too, very pretty luxurious interior decors. You should definitely dress up for this place for dinner! Sitting at the bar would be also enjoyable. It's a huge and contemporary bar. Will definitely try that one day. Ohhh the open kitchen is also a hit. It's probably one of the best restaurants in the whole Bay Area I'd say. Definitely the best waterfront restaurant for sure! I can see us come back more often.

Came her to celebrate my birthday with a couple friends. On the way there, I was convinced the Google maps was sending us to the wrong place as we went down a remote road with office buildings off to the side. Thankfully we trusted the map and WOW, what a hidden gem! The ambiance is incredible -- on one side you have a giant jellyfish wall that is absolutely mesmerizing, on the other side you have panoramic views of the water. The food is likewise amazing. I highly recommend ordering family style so you can try everything.

We came here for our 10th anniversary and we had mixed feelings. The ambience and views are excellent, whether you are looking at the water or the jellies. The cocktails were nice, but service was a bit slow at the bar, but it was busy. Once seated for dinner, our waiter was quite slow an inattentive. We ordered a steak and the whole fish. I like that the deboned the fish table side, which was a nice experience. I though it was odd that they sliced the filet (steak) rather than serving it whole. Usually you slice other cuts, but filet is served whole. The owner took some pictures for us around the restaurant, which was nice customer service. Would I come back, yes, but it seems a little over priced for the quality. You are paying for the location.

3.5 stars. We had a reservation for 5 people on a Saturday afternoon. Check-in process was extremely easy and we were seated immediately after checking in. Ambiance: 5/5 Casual business dress code and let me say, this place is beautiful! The restaurant is facing the water front and has huge windows that were open so our lunch hour was paired with plenty of natural lighting and sunshine. Tables + chairs inside were fantastic but the ones outside gave a picnic vibe. Service: 3/5 Our waiter did not check-in during the meal and did not give us water refills until we were almost done. He was impossible to be flagged down. We also had to wait around 30mins for our food and when it finally came out, everything was served at all at once -- appetizers + entrées... waiter also offered us deserts AFTER we paid the bill. Food: 3.5/5 Every item we got was a so-so. Nothing really stood out unfortunately.

The restaurant looks great. The location is great. Restroom is wild-looking, but most importantly clean. The waste bin did get a little overpacked. Started with the milk bread--ended up ordering 4 orders. Something about freshly baked bread is second to none. Next the scallops, hamachi(?i forget), baked oysters, and chowder. Scallops were my favorite--smokey, buttery, salty, sweet. Hamachi was ok. The rice wasn't as crispy as it could've been. Flavors were pretty good, but because the rice was kind of a fail, it's only OK. Baked oysters didn't WOW me. Chowder was good. Lots of ingredients like smoked ham, tiny whole shrimp, potatoes, clam. Ravioli was good. The darode was pretty good. An entire fillet served on top of kimchi fried rice(?). They said it was deboned, but they missed a few. Large portion. Great to share family style. Steak was ok. Not the best, just ok. Came with potato gratins(?) cooked in beef fat and garlic, herbs. Porkchop was a huge portion. Great to share family style. The peaches with pork chop The bone marrow with the crab was pretty great. Would order again. Onion rings were really good. The fish punch was good, but like most cocktails, a little pricey. The seahorse ice cubes were cute. Service wasn't super great, but it was good. They basically cleaned up plates after every meal. They were very polite.

Beautiful space with a waterfront view, ample parking, good food, but spotty service. My friends and I dropped by on a Sunday afternoon to get a drink. We immediately loved the decor and ambiance of the place. The live jellyfish tank is an incredible feature as is the beautiful kitchen that is viewable behind a glass wall. We ended up sitting at the bar and the main person servicing us that day seemed like an inexperienced grump. As we were sitting down, he asked if we planned on eating. Because my friends had mentioned an oyster special, I said yes but my friend wasn't sure so he took away her placemat. Within a couple of minutes, he asked us what we wanted even though he hadn't handed us any menus and it was clear we hadn't had time to peruse anything. Our other friends who arrived before us passed us their menus so we could take a look. I asked what the featured oyster was and his answer was that it was up to the chef everyday and couldn't tell us anything more about it. It turned out there was a wine special that is meant to go with the oysters but it was a different bartender that mentioned it to us. I figured maybe he's newer and doesn't know everything but every other restaurant usually tells us the oyster varietals at the very least when the food is brought out. Not this one. So I asked again and the bartender kinda made a face like I inconvenienced him. My friends also got a couple bar food items and the tuna nigiri off the main menu. The fish and chips were good, crispy and not too greasy but a little lacking in flavor. The remoulade sauce added some flavor but unfortunately, they didn't have malt vinegar available. When it came time to get the bill, the bartender basically tossed it at me and walked away. I asked if I could use Apple Pay and apparently I can but he couldn't do it so I had to wait for someone to come by who did. I might come back but if I see this same bartender, I probably wouldn't stay around.

Came on Saturday to celebrate a birthday and was greeted by the friendly staff at Hurrica. One of the managers, Misun, came out to check in on us and made the birthday lunch feel very special. The best part was their oysters. We tried all 3 from the east coast, west coast, and Canada. Their clams were also delicious. For an appetizer we also did the tuna tartar. Misun checked in on us and recommended us how to eat the tuna tartar since it came with nori and rice. As our entree we shared the fish and chips which was very moist and flaky in the inside and perfectly crispy with the batter. For dessert we ordered the strawberry shortcake which was not too sweet and had such a delicious sauce. The food is one of the best you can find on the peninsula and the service exceeds your expectations. Also can't forget the beautiful view that overlooks the Marina.

Had my bday dinner on 10/15 here - First time and it was a great experience - For a Tuesday 7pm reservation it was still pretty busy - we were initially seated in the dining room but found it was too loud for us so we moved to one of the outdoor tables which was perfect- the open kitchen concept is super cool- service was a 10/10 We will be back to try some of the other dishes for sure !

We had the most amazing experience for a friend's birthday dinner at Hurrica last night! Such beautiful ambience and decor (with a handwritten birthday card!) and the food was just incredible. Our server Casey was so wonderfully attentive and knowledgeable; her recommendations were excellent, she worked with the bartenders to create a warm winter cocktail for the birthday girl, and coursed out our dinner perfectly. Everything we ordered was mouth-wateringly delicious :) - milk bread (the coconut butter is unbelievable) - scallops with garlic butter sauce - grilled pork cheeks (so tender!) - whole roasted dorade (paired perfectly with the kimchi fried rice underneath!) - slow roasted pork chop - Monterey calamari bolognese - sides of onion rings, spaetzle gratin, broccoli di ciccio) - carrot cake (do not miss this - so light and incredible texture) - coffee dessert (don't remember the name but it looked like a forest scene with merengue mushrooms!) We had the most delightful conversation with one of the owners MeeSun, who talked with us about the menu, a brief history of the space, and some of the special upcoming events planned. We will definitely be back soon and often!

Best new restaurant on the southern Peninsula. While it might seem a little bit out of the way, it's worth a drive down Seaport Boulevard past the big Emerald Palace (Pacific Shores complex). Hurrica is located on the water at Westport Marina. Same owners as the Water Bar and Epic in San Francisco. These guys like water front locations for sure! And the name comes from one of the Bay's most prestigious wooden sailing yachts - over 100 yrs old. You can see Hurrica the yacht down below at the docks. Amazing! From the captivating open kitchen where you can see the Chef and his staff preparing your meals, to the bustling open bar with all your favorite mixes and cocktails, to the tucked away quieter dinning area, you can find the experience you're looking for. All topped off by some of the best food the Peninsula has seen in years. Oh, and have I said did I tell you how great the wine list is? Get out of your routine and come experience Hurrica.

Great new restaurant opened earlier 2024. It is situated in a private harbor near Google campus in Redwood City. Came here with friends on Sunday evening. What a lovely experience. The jellyfish and the ocean theme was well thought out and carried through out the restaurant. No details were ever missed. Everyone we met was absolutely lovely, friendly and caring. Their menu is refreshed frequently. It started it off with their valet staff walking us from the parking lot to the restaurant introducing the history. We ended it up sitting outside to enjoy the view. We started it off with cocktails. Their cocktails are named so interestingly. The hurrica cocktail was delicious and super pretty. The milk bread was soft and inviting. Oysters were fresh and took me back to my childhood (definitely love these gifts from the west coast). Prawn cocktail was okay. I ordered halibut for my main course. It had a good Japanese flare but I had to say the pork chop looked so good, cooked so well, tasted so awesome and it was huge. I likely would get the pork chop next time. We shared a Pinot noir and it was pretty good. I ordered the chocolate peanut butter desert. It was good but the presentation was a little plain. My friends' carrot cakes looked stunning and dramatic. I don't normally like carrot cakes but their carrot cake here taste like a million bucks... wow.. Service here was so good. We felt that we were really taken care of. We toured around the inside and saw the very beautiful jellyfish tank and their bar area looks so good. Their open kitchen and everything.... You have to see for yourself to appreciate all the details. We definitely will come back. Thank you for having us and taking care of us.

4 black women walked in ready for a brunch experience and were met with a reaction as if were there to stick up the place -bulged eyes and a terrified hostess. They only offered outdoor seating - It's freezing and we were just on tornado watch ma'am. It was a tell us you don't want us here without saying it experience. They only get one star because that is required to leave a review.

Now THIS is seriously a hidden gem because they are tucked away by the harbor and Google. If i don't work at Google - how the heck would I ever know to find Hurrica. O R D E R E D - Onion Rings in Wagyu Fat - Warm Milk Bread - Lobster Ravioli - Wild Mushroom - Caviar Toast V E R D I C T That freaking 1700 gallon jellyfish tank - WOW!!! That doesn't even describe it well enough but my goodness, it is a masterpiece. I def wanted to sit in front of it and pay attention to the jellies more than who I was eating with - whoopsie. My favorite item has got to be their caviar toast - i can eat it all the time, if I could. It's the perfect amount of caviar on a mini piece of toast, call it bougie if you want but it does taste amazing. If you love mushrooms, you better order the side of wild mushrooms because the sauce was ponzu and i love ponzu sauce. Their bar is just as breath taking as the jelly fish tank. If you are looking for a dining spot for a celebration, team dinner or get together overall, Hurrica is the spot for you because there is not a single spot in the restaurant that is considered a "bad" spot. You can see their open kitchen, the outdoor marina area, even watching the sunset - all of it!

What a wonderful evening spent here to celebrate our 10 wedding anniversary. THe staff were extremely friendly and attentive. The food and drinks were excellent. From the sea horse ice cube in our Scotch through every course of the meal and the special treat, our experience was wonderful. Yes off the beaten path, but I find that part of the appeal. Will defiantly be coming back. Thank you

Had a lovely birthday lunch with wonderful service and birthday extras-staff signed birthday card and a dessert!!! Special Touches like that take the restaurant to another level. We started with 24 oysters (which proceeds are donated to local agencies) and the tuna tartare- yum! For our mains- We had fish and chips (which my husband loved), duck confit with wild mushroom omelette with pomegranate ( a perfect tang to the duck), and prawn salad with soba noodles (light and tasty). In addition to the birthday cake, we shared the coconut panna cotta- delish It was our first time here and we will be returning!

Went here for a special occasion and the food and atmosphere were equally special. My wife and I got a bunch of smaller plates to share so we could try as much as possible. We especially liked the caviar toast. I doubt you can go wrong with anything on the menu.

Nothing says "we welcome your children" like a kids menu which is quite uncommon in a lot of higher end restaurants. Yes, some would tolerate the kids but Hurrica is truly family friendly. The ambiance can be seen as kind of romantic for a date night but the jellyfish fish tank is also a big hit with the kids. Service was great! Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. She knows about the ingredients used in the dishes as well as how things are prepared. We were constantly checked on, not just by the server by the other staff as well. Our water cups were refilled no less than 5 times during the course of our meal. It felt like a great team! The food was delicious! Pleasant on the eyes and happy in the belly! Easy parking! We look forward to coming back!

Family went for pre-Christmas dinner. We got seated right next to the beautiful jellyfish tank! Everyone loved their food and drinks and the service was very attentive. We'll definitely go back again!

Came here for dinner with a girlfriend and had an amazing experience! This restaurant was much needed. The views were beautiful, the service was excellent and the food was on point! Kacie was so helpful and guided us as we navigated the menu. I would go back to try some of the heavier entrees but we stuck to small bite sizes, apps and shared it all. I started with the scallop bite...omg so freaking good. I wanted to drink the butter. Do it. Order that. We shared the noodles either salmon and burrata with figs. The noodles were the only dish that was good and not phenomenal but still enjoyed it. For our main we got the bass with sausage and beans. It was light and flavorful almost like a mild gumbo flare. The panna cotta dessert was incredible. Seriously one of the best I've had. I can't wait to go back.

We love this restaurant. We have been here 5 times in the last year. We love to take people here who are visiting the Bay Area. The setting is unique. The food is exellent as is the service. Also, the interior of the restaurant is sophiticated yet comfortable. THe massive jellyfish acquarium in itself is a gem to look at it.

They have an oyster special at lunchtime and afternoon for $1.99 each. These are chef's selection so you don't know what you're getting, but both times we were there they were delicious. Fresh, briny, and beautifully presented. Not a large menu but with interesting and tasteful salads and entrees. Service was excellent. If sits on the waterfront of the Redwood City marina. A notable feature is the thin glass aquarium between the bar and restaurant. It's filled with pale beautiful jellyfish.

Attention my Yelp family: THIS PLACE ROCKS! I search for the chef that loves to create and I have found one here. The small dishes were bountiful with flavor and very creative. The co-founder, Parke, is also the Executive Chef at Waterfront and Epic, and he has developed a masterpiece here. Even though they are still in the construction process, the ambiance is amazing. This place is going to look so good when it is done. We will definitely be coming here during the summer - big sliding glass doors will bring the outdoors in. It is out there in the boonies, passed a few homeless encampments on the way in, but the whole area will eventually be developed, Google right acres the street. The bread with squash brown butter is crazy good. My favorite was the scallop app - sauce was extraordinary. Black cod was A+. Lobster ravioli was my least favorite - not enough lobster meat and a couple of them were not cooked on the edges. Dessert was vey very creative - bread pudding with smoked sweet potato, I know right, and yes it was delicious. This will be one of our go to places from now on - Bravo Hurrica!

This place is a must ! Will not disappoint. The ambience was amazing all the detail was stunning. I read some reviews regarding service. Everyone was so friendly one of the owners stopped by our table such a personable thing to do and takes a few minutes of their time. I was too excited to eat forgot to take pictures of the food . We ordered the Milk bread and I got the cod, delicious ! Apple Caramel for dessert 10/10! Next time I visit I'm defiantly trying something different . Our waiter was also funny joking around awesome sense of humor I loved it . Upon leaving one of the owners offered to take a picture of all of us, that was so wonderful. Super friendly loved it. Will return and recommend.

We were a party of four and had high expectations especially since they own Waterbar and Epic in San Francisco. Unfortunately, the food and service were ok. First, we had a hard time finding the front entrance! Lol! We walked around the restaurant thinking each door was open, but we were wrong! We finally saw the small sign on the ground next to the pathway, however, it was so dark that it was hard to see. Recommend adding lights to shine on the signs. We finally made it to the entrance and were immediately in awe of the interior design. The bar was beautiful with the amazing jellyfish tank separating the dining room and the bar area. Another nice touch was the glass enclosed kitchen. The hostess was kind enough to show us around which was very nice. The owner, MeeSun Boice, stopped by our table to welcome us and told us about the beautifully crafted redwood table we were sitting at as well as the handblown glass water jug. She also explained the interior design. You can tell she was very passionate about the new establishment and excited to share Hurrica with the community. We ordered the following: Milk Bread - 4 stars Onion ring - 3 stars Beets & Greens - 3 stars Big eye tuna sashimi - 4 stars Black cod - 3 stars Lobster - 3 stars Shellfish bisque - 4 stars Our waiter suggested we order the bread and beets for appetizers however, he assumed we wanted two orders of the bread and didn't really explain the beets dish. He really pressured us to order it so we did. The milk bread and sashimi really stood out when it came to flavor. The kabocha squash & brown butter was amazing with the warm soft bread and the sashimi tasted great with a little bit of crunch from the rice combined with the buttery tuna. The chili crisp added another layer of spice too. We all agreed we could eat the two alone and not order anything else! Lol! The beets was just ok. When the dish arrived, we were surprised that there were greens, because our waiter did not explain that part! And the beets? Well they were chopped in tiny pieces, so it was hard to even taste them. The lobster was ok. The claws were dry and the tail was too rare. The sauce that came with it was very salty with an unpleasant flavor. We ended up asking for melted butter! We also had to ask for lobster tools (cracker and fork) that the waiter forgot to give us prior to our meal. The black cod was good, however the sauce was a bit soupy and lacking the miso flavor. The chicken gyoza was also good that sat in the soup based sauced but it was an odd combination. Maybe offering the gyoza as an appetizer would be better. The shellfish bisque was good and had loads of flavor. The combination of seafood and squash was delicious. We will definitely come back again to try their other dishes and enjoy the beautiful ambiance.

Hit after hit on the food Great service and vibes Random location but cool that it had a water view

Another amazing night at Hurricane. Cocktails at the bar crafted by Ivan. Dinner was amazing ! I would suggest you request the main dining room. Doors are open for a nice breeze but bring something to put over your shoulders in case you need it . We ordered the bites - scallops, Big eye tuna , warm milk bread. Dip the bread in the scallop mixture. Dinner -lobster ravioli, pork chop, bass, Dorade plus spaetzle. Everything was delicious! Strawberry pound cake for dessert. Nightcap crafted. by Carlos . You can tell everyone that works there really promotes the restaurant and the menu . Carlos helped take group photos for us before we left . Appreciate his assistance and his positive demeanor. Will be back to try the happy hour.
