- CConsuelo (Connie)San Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoIt was my birthday celebration and we sat in the main dining room. The host was nice enough to turn down the music so we could hear each other. They also all signed a birthday card from Hurrica to give to me. They also served me a dessert with a candle. How special they made me feel. Perfect place to celebrate any occasion! Thank you Hurrica!!More infoHurrica Restaurant & BarPrice: Expensive• American• Redwood City•4.7

- DdonSan Francisco Bay Area •10 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI have been there before but my wife and I went there for lunh today. We ate inside as it was cool outside (I have had lunch outside with a friend before and it was very nice). The inside was a large room with tables placed far enough apart for privacy and conversation. We sat by the window and were immediately greeted, given water and a menu. We brought a bottle of wine - they do not serve alcohol but you can bring a bottle of wine to enjoy with your meal and we did. The corkage fee iss $20. We ordered to starters: the crab cakes and the mushroom empanadas to share. They were very good and were hot. My wife had the Loaded Tacos with shrimp - four tacos loaded with shrimp cooked just right, some avocado, and a spicy sauce. It was a large plate. She liked it very much. I had the Butternut Squash Ravioli. The pasta was cooked al dente, the sauce was very good and the crispy bacon and red onions were a great accompaniment. I could not discern the sage however. The service was great. We finished with a shared desert and a couple of Cappuccinos. And I cannot forget to mention that two gentlemen played electric guitars (a base and a 6-string). They played jazz at just the right volume. It was jazz - the first number was a great rendition of Summertime - no voice, just 2 guitars). It was great. We really enjoyed our lunch. Highly recommended. .More infoCafe WisteriaPrice: Expensive• American• Menlo Park•4.7
