Hurricane Wings Opening on January 13
New restaurant will open a few months after it was initially expected to.
After months of speculation, a grand opening date has been nailed down for the Hurricane Grill & Wings in Lindenhurst.
The new Montauk Highway location has announced it will be opening on January 13 to the public.
The wings restaurant, a chain competitor to the popular Buffalo Wild Wings franchise, is expected to open the second week of January, according to a Facebook post on the restaurant's page.
Owner Steve Critelli told Patch back in August he expected to open in late October, but the restaurant's doors have remained closed through the fall.
The new restaurant will replace Cattleman's Grill, which had been closed since Hurricane Sandy flooded the building during the immense storm surge.
The building has also been home to other restaurants in its history, including Indian Taj, Landmark Grill and Barnacle Bill's.
The restaurant will join Lindenhurst's two other locally-owned wings hotspots, Duffy's Ale House and Chicken Tonight, when its doors open.
