Yes we did scream out our excitements when we found out that it was opening on the 23rd November in Hillary's Boat Harbour...
We decided to pay a visit on Thursday night with a bunch of friends, thinking that it wasn't going to be very packed. Lucky enough we made a booking the night before because when we arrived at 7:30pm all the seats were occupied.
We got assigned to our own waiter to help us out with the ordering. Having already tasted the Hurricane's Bar and grill in Sydney, we had quite a high expectation of the quality of the ribs.
Between the eight of us, we ordered 1kg of Pork Ribs , 1kg of Beef Ribs, and 2 lots of BBQ platters.
Yes we were hangry, after a long day at work plus the hectic long wait caused by the rail closures which happened earlier.
After forty five minutes of waiting that seemed like forever, our feast arrived on the table. HALLELUJAH! Prepped up with bibs, we dig 'em up right away!

Hurricane's BBQ Meat Platter - BBQ basted chicken wings, lightly basted boerewors, juicy lamb cutlets, short cut sirloin and Hurricane's famous ribs AUD$105 (rating:3/5)

Full Rack Beef Ribs basted with Hurricane's Secret Sauce AUD$49.50 ( Rating: 3.5/5)

The Verdict:
- The pork ribs were delicious. The sauce was generous and you can taste the sauce to-the-bone!
- The beef ribs were humongous. Very juicy and delicious, but we think the meat could be a little more softer.
- The BBQ platters consisted of 4 chicken wings, few lamb cutlets, steaks, and pork ribs. Yep it was huge. The chicken wings tasted pretty average, but the lamb cutlets and steak were sooo tender!
- The sides (sweet potato fries and french fries) were so crispy.
Handy tips:
- Do not wear white shirt! although you will be given a bib, but there's still that tiny chance of the sauce landing on your shirt. Especially if you are taking your toddlers.
- Make sure you make a prior booking either by phone call or online reservation.
- Not recommended for new lovers going on their first date. Ladies, you will have chunks of meats stuck in between your teeth. We did witness a poor girl on a date, stuck eating a bowl of salad shyly.
