The worst rudest service by a bartender I've experienced in Boston and that's a high bar, these severs can be so rude here, blank expressions, they just look at you with zero hospitality, but this took the prize for horrendous unacceptable treatment of patrons. So bad I almost thought it is part of their training? Like Dick's Last Resort? The female bartender at the front bar was so bad, have filed a formal complaint with management and Briar Group, waiting to hear, [[HIGHLIGHT]]too bad, because it's otherwise a great fun vibe of a place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Went here before the bruins game to grab a quick bite and some drinks. We ordered generic beer but also ordered the clam chowder and the loaded waffle fries. They were a good snack to hold us over during the game. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a bar, so it was loud and crowded but everyone was incredibly cautious and polite while moving about.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff was great and amazingly organized for how crazy it was! read more

We stopped in before the bruins game, everything we got was excellent! The food was 10/10, really recommend the pizza. I got a pumpkin espresso martini which was amazing and I really enjoyed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great spot to go before a game or event at TD Garden.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Make sure you go early as it fills up quickly! read more

Very disappointing experience tonight due to the bartender. My mom and I came earlier in the afternoon for lunch, ordered pizza and drinks, and had a great time. Because we enjoyed it, we decided to come back later that evening for dinner. When we sat down, we ordered two waters while we looked over the menu and decided what we wanted to order. The bartender we had earlier was still there, but a different bartender was helping us. When he asked what we wanted to drink, I asked if we could get another round of water while we decided. His response was, "You have to order something -- this isn't a bus stop." We ended up ordering a drink and then left shortly after because the interaction made us feel very uncomfortable. What was also surprising was that the bartender who had served us earlier in the day, and knew we had already been customers there, just watched the exchange and didn't say anything. Unfortunately, if this is how customers are treated, we won't be returning. read more

Service was fantastic, prompt, polite, and well informed. I ordered a burger, requested, medium rare, and it came out cooked perfectly. All of the food at our table was terrific. Given the rush before a game, I was very pleasantly surprised. read more

Stopped in for a quick drink on our way to a show at The Winery. The drinks were good. We were there around 8:30 and it was super busy, which is good! There was a soccer game between Argentina and Peru while we were there and the crowd was super excited and involved! Great atmosphere though the servers could be a little nicer, kind of pushy, no smiling, that sort of thing, but they were mobbed so probably a bit frustrated. It's a great place to stop in and grab a beverage! I would totally go back when I'm in the area! read more

Dropped in before the game and we're seated right away. Our app and sandwiches came out fast. Great for a quick meal before the game. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Typical sports bar-very busy, very loud[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice, clean place with standard food, everything was yummy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I loved the most was the kindness in their staff.

Was looking for a quick bite before the game wasn't expecting anything great but was pleasantly surprised! The loaded waffle fries were a bit over fried but with the melted cheese and bacon you can never really go wrong! The chicken sandwich didn't look great but the chicken was actually really good and cooked well! The flavor of pickles and pickled cabbage slaw was a bit over whelming but not terrible read more

Lauren and I are here to watch the fights. The thing about Boston is that there aren't too many options for catching a PPV fight. The thing about fighting is, it's a perfect allegory for life. The difference being that the opponent is life, and to beat life, one has to beat themselves. It's important to study fighting, even over chicken and beer. It's important to understand that, even though the cover to enter here is exorbitant, that every day is a reckoning. And in life one's either happy fighting or miserable and bickering over hand towels. Constantly misplacing the remote. Hurricanes price hikes because it's the only game in town for watching the fights. Price-gouging should be against the rules like eye-gouging. Over-charging should be frowned upon like an oblique kick to the knee. Lauren goes outside for cigarettes while I wait for the waiter to bring me a Sam Seasonal. The gentleman next to us is yelling at the TVs. I want to join Lauren so I ask the gentleman if he'll look after our coats. He nods and I leave, and outside it's brisk and Lauren is one of those poets lately, the kind that smells of smoke. She hasn't touched her wings and not because Hurricanes doesn't do a good job with their fryer, but because she herself is bitter. She feels I'm turning into a boob. That all I do is complain about others. Mr. King. Liam Brode, the mega donner who told me at a fundraiser that I can't just go to places like Hurricanes, order the wings, paint a still life and be deemed a serious artist. I've modeled my career off of women and food. Gluttony and lust and all the fine low brow things. My new fascination is fighting and watching mixed martial arts. I wonder if it's a terrible idea to verbally spar with Lauren, that she's upset at me for loosing my luster, my innocence and constant inspiration in all things shiny. That in fact, she's the one! She should help me strategize and take over the art world. I'm on the brink of becoming a living icon. If only the waiter at Hurricanes and Lauren appreciate me the way the Paris Review won't leave me alone. I don't want to go chasing someone down for a beer, no matter how pretty they are or how busy and tied up. My soul is on the ropes. My wallet's nowhere near empty despite the cover to get in this place. It's dark. It has many TVs. I tell Lauren that this is a great place for a fight. I beg her to come back inside. That Hurricanes is one of the few places I can enjoy these days. That thank God I'm no longer a man without money in New York. I remember my nine dollar a day budget. One beer max at Sharlenes in Brooklyn. Does she remember those days? I went from Millers to Sam Adams. From art school to being displayed at a Boston gallery, looking to eat wings and watch the fights. It's easy to complain about places not getting everything right, but all in all, I'm pretty happy to be here. read more

This place was great for my needs! Came here with a friend and hour and a half before a Celtics game. Courtney helped us out at the bar. She was great! Made the drinks strong! (Hurricane on the tap and crown Apple with cranberry) Had a light convo with us and the food came out quick for a game night! Wasn't crazy packed but the space is big. I had buffalo wings and my friend had the Chicken BLT with fries. My wings were great. My friend said his sandwich was alright. Came back after the game and Maia helped us out (told her we'll be back and she remembered!) kitchen was closed unfortunately but we had the same drinks. Definitely would come back! read more

My husband and I stopped here to eat before heading to a concert at The Garden. The food and service were great. Everyone was kind, the food came out quickly, and there was a variety of beer, wine and cocktail options. Everything we ate and drank was delicious, definitely recommended if you're looking for something to eat right down the road from TD Garden! read more

Came here after the bruins game last weekend. I had never been here before either so I was excited to try a new place. I got a pastrami sandwich with fries and a few beers. The pastrami was really good and tasty, the bread was crunchy as well. The place was pretty empty after the game which u was surprised about, so our service was pretty fast, if it had been busy I'm not sure how the service would have been. My friends and I had a good time chatting away for a while here. read more

Great for drinks. Was at a table and ordered a couple rounds. We then ordered food and once it arrived we were told we had to get up and leave because it was "reserved". Just overall terrible experience, the staff was rude and the manager was as well. read more

Actually the rudest and most u professional staff i have ever encountered in Boston... was commanded up from a table (apparently reserved, there were no signs to indicate this) by the rudest waitress/hostess. My friends and I sat down for two minutes, looked at a menu, and then was scolded like dogs to get up. We had no ideas the table was reserved, we were just hungry. Tried explaining to a manager but she could not care less - not a place to go if you want anything relatively near a pleasant experience. Would give 0 stars if i could! read more

I was recently at Hurricanes for a LGBTQIA takeover a couple of weeks ago. We had a women performer which did in fact include some risque dancing - something the crowd enjoyed and in fact probably bought more drinks as a result of. The owner came out angrily at the event coordinators for this performance saying they "weren't allowed" to host something like this, and then they turned all of the lights on at 1:15-30am and kicked out every patron, 30 minutes before the club scene in Boston is legally required to end at. There wasn't even so much as a last call - they just completely turned the lights on. Regardless of rules - you should not be kicking out EVERY paying patron due to your own emotions or personal issues with the event coordinator. We were all having a blast only for it to be ruined by what genuinely felt like a homophobic gesture from a cis white male bar manager/owner (?). Would they have done this in a "straight" event? Probably not. I've never once experienced this type of behavior in Boston at any clubs/bars and have seen performances like this a dozen-plus times.... nevertheless seeing this behavior being exhibited by the actual OWNER/manager coming out and then making the patrons feel incredibly uncomfortable, at least I felt that way. I will not be going back to say the least nor will LGBTQIA events be hosted there moving forward from this event coordinator. Create a real safe space for your LGBTQ patrons. read more

Been to hurricanes twice and both times were outstanding. Mike and Anthony were great. The level of service was outstanding. Those guys are a great asset to hurricanes. Can't wait for the next B's home game Cheers Steve read more

I made reservations 7 to 10 days ago for June 17 time 630pm. this would make the first time I went to the restaurant with my wife on her birthday as we were going to Celtics game. I received a email one day before our reservations that the restaurant canceled the reservation which shocked me. I called. There was no voicemail so I received an email from Grace Manozzi, Project Manager apologizing for this technical error, even though it's our fault. if that happened days and days ago, I would accept that and understand it and make another reservation. but the last-minute cancellation by the restaurant, made it impossible as everything was booked around the area. I sent that email with really no help at all. was the last-minute email to cancel was that also a technical error!!!! you think they would've sent an email out way before that so people can adjust the reservation to some other area. I contacted the mayor's office. They put a complaint in the Better Business Bureau. It's absolutely so wrong. They didn't even offer anything. The restaurant is open, but the charging a cover charge for the game. We had no idea the first time we've been there and they were not accommodate us. Hopefully the Better Business Bureau will do something about the poor business practice. read more

Terrible .. went there for the 630 bruins playoff game , at 330 we showed up at the door and they treated us like we were obnoxious for showing up so early . A waitress came out to grab a package and we asked what time opening was and she said hopefully never " hopefully never " .. what a joke ! We sat down for 2 titos and soda and both tasted like just soda water . I think the vodka bottles were legit watered down . I went across to banners and total other experience . I grew up here , ill never go hurricanes again . Scumbags!!! read more

Earlier today I wanted to make a reservation for myself and 5 others for the Bruins game (started at 7) AND UFC Fight (started at 10). I went to make a reservation online and the only reservations they were taking were for the UFC Fight with that window of reservations starting at 9pm (plenty of reservations available). This fight also came with a $15 cover charge per person which we were fine with paying, but didn't make one online because we wanted to go earlier for the Bruins game. Because of this, I called the restaurant early afternoon to see what I should do since I wanted a table for both events. The guy I talked to was great and said to just come in for the Bruins game because they'd have plenty of tables before the UFC fight, and we'd be good to stay for the fight afterwards as well. I talked to the same guy when I got there and we had an enjoyable time watching the Bruins game even though they lost. When the fight started, the manager came around to collect a cover charge for the fight as expected. However, when he came around he upcharged us and asked for $20 per person, saying that the charge was $15 only if you made a reservation and $20 if you didn't. I explained to him that I didn't make an online reservation because I had called earlier and agreed to an arrangement with the gentleman that I had talked to. After going back and forth he was still persistent on charging us $20 a head. So to summarize, we were essentially penalized for coming 2 hours early and spending $400 on food and drinks during the Bruins game. I could've made a reservation and paid the $15 per person ahead of time but again didn't do this because of the arrangement agreed upon on the phone and because of the fact that they weren't even offering reservations starting at 7 as the place wasn't expected to be full. I was excited for Hurricanes to open back up as I live on the block and have gone there regularly, but will be taking my business to Banner, Tavern, etc for the foreseeable future. The gap between $15 and $20 is negligible, but we decided to leave and watch the fights at my apartment out of principle. read more

We only ordered a water and a coke and the waitress got it wrong. No biggie I understand it's a busy place, but she also got the food order wrong and I didn't say anything because again whatever. But the food was just bad like I got a chicken sandwich and it was so burnt and tough and chewy. Basic food, not good, just a place to go before any TD garden event I guess. Apps are over priced too lol read more

Another day around the block, took a step of faith in trying a new restaurant that's mostly empty on a game night. It smelled new.. it feels like a bar, but not a lot of bar food options. I got a Greek salad. It consists of iceberg lettuce (flavorless, nutritionless), cucumber, tomatoes, some other preserved vegetables and store bought dressings. it was no good read more

Went into hurricanes before a Celtics game last week and had a great meal but even better experience sitting at the back bar. Our bartender Rick was very attentive, knowledgeable and made the best green (go celts!) tea shot I ever had in my life. You know a good bartender when your Diet Coke is refilled before you even ask for a refill! I usually go to the fours before games but I now have a new pre game spot for life in hurricanes. read more

The atmosphere​ is blah​ - we ended up here because the other restaurants were full. They were able to seat us within 15 minutes. Food is average and what you would expect at a bar. You can't go wrong with burgers and waffles fries. DO NOT get the Drunken Mule - it's a horrible tasting drink. I was going to give them 3 stars but that drink was so bad I'm giving a 2 instead. read more

My friend and I stumbled upon hurricanes when looking for a place to grab a quick bite before a Celtics game. We decided to go to the game last minute so all the good restaurants were jam packed with people already. When we walked by hurricanes we saw that it was relatively empty as compared to the other packed restaurants and bars in the area. We went in and the hostess said there was a 20 min wait but could be sooner so we grabbed a drink at the bar and waited. It only took about 10-15 minutes and we were seated by the window. The first thing we noticed was the decor, or should I say lack of decor. Everything was awkwardly spaced out with so many dead spaces not being used properly that it made the entire space awkward and lacking something. There wasn't one thing hanging on the walls except for the numerous TVs all playing the same channel...in a sports bar... where typically multiple games play... but hey what do I know. Although our waitress was nice and the food was quick i will most definitely not be returning to hurricanes. The menu was tiny and the food that we did order was so extremely subpar. The buffalo chicken dip was honestly the most disgusting I've ever had and the waffle fries it was served with were burnt to a crisp and tasted like they were fried, sat out for a few hours, fried again, sat out for awhile, and then served... i didn't think it was possible to ruin waffle fries but oh, you guys sure did. Please for the sake of everyone in Boston, take the buffalo chicken dip off your menu and never serve it to another human again. The pizza was also gross and not worth eating. I caught glimpse of other tables food and it all looked pretty much the same, inedible. If we weren't in a rush to get to the Celtics game we would have sent the food back but we had no time and the service was taking forever so we simply left a table full of inedible food and money for one of the worst meals I've had in awhile. With all the great places around the garden don't even waste your time here, even if it is for a short wait. read more

Stopped in for small bites around 4pm. It had the perfect menu for us - burgers, sandwiches, pizza, hot dogs, etc. My son had a burger and it was great. My daughter had the Mac & cheese and liked it. My wife had the clam chowder and thought it was a bit too salty. I had the Buffalo chicken wrap. It had a couple of problems. The biggest problem was that there wasn't much chicken in the wrap, it was mostly breaded crust saturated with buffalo sauce. Very little chicken meat. Also, it had crumpled blue cheese. You might say "what's wrong with that?" Well, wings go down nicely with blue cheese dressing, but so much with crumpled blue cheese. Try a mouthful of blue cheese crumples and see if it doesn't just suck the saliva out of your mouth. Service was okay, but we had to flag down the waitress for water, which is something we usually never have to do. read more

Have to say this place looks lame. They didn't allow us in cause we were louder and walked down the street enjoying the good weather and life. Glad they turned us away cause looking in the bar is empty on a Friday night and happy to go to another nearby bar with people, good drinks, and better vibes!! read more

Stopped in before a Celtics game, had a great experience! I really love what they've done with the place, the decor and overall vibe is so much improved from what it was in the past. We ordered the buffalo chicken dip and a hot dog as we were just grabbing a quick bite. I'm pretty sure I'll only be eating buffalo chicken dip with waffle fries from now on. Plus - don't miss out on their nightlife! They have amazing live music every weekend, some of the best cover bands I've seen. Highly recommend this place! read more

Overpriced for the quality and extremely unkind. I ate dinner here before a concert as a single woman. It was ok. When I returned after to wait for an Uber, thinking it was a safe place, I was treated disrespectfully. They seem extremely nervous about over-serving which is something I've never experienced. I can only imagine they've gotten in trouble before. So unnecessary. read more

First , I really don't even should be giving this place a one star, lets start...the front guy is the most rude, un educated person I have ever encounter, this guy was so ignorant that he ask us for ID and we show him Puerto Rico driving license and said that it was not a valid ID that he need it a travel visa or passport.....hellooooo!! Puerto Rico is a territory of the US, and been a bar in Boston make it worst..I mean , really? Boston?....you really don't know how many Latinos live in Boston are you really so ignorant, not to mention that we even show him our military ID and to top things when we tried to educate this poor guy he made the comment " that's why I don't drink". This place show me the worst racist display a had ever seen , Hurricane Bar as a good advice hire more educated personnel. read more
