Our History

In January 2014, Hurricane Charley’s Raw Bar & Grill, Punta Gorda’s newest waterfront restaurant, opened in the Punta Gorda Waterfront Hotel on Charlotte Harbor. The sister restaurant to Dean’s South of the Border, Charley’s offers a full bar outside on the scenic HunkerDown Deck, where you’ll see the best sunset views, or dine indoors in our sushi bar!

Hurricane Charley’s is more than a restaurant; it holds a historic view of the 2004 hurricane that devastated Charlotte Harbor. Our walls tell the story of a community effort to recover and triumph over the hurricane that leveled our city.

We invite you to stop by, meet our friendly staff and enjoy a premier dining experience at Hurricane Charley’s, overlooking Charlotte Harbor.

From “Simple to Simply Elegant“, we’ve been serving Charlotte County for over 30 years. Give our catering manager, Bob McCurry a call to book your event today! 941.505.7882

Reviewed April 24, 2023 - Great experience. Our son decided he wanted to try "real Sushi" his words. He sat down at the Sushi Bar and the staff went over the different types. The made him a roll that was not on the menu, but according to my son it should be. he has asked me almost daily to try to get his custom roll made for him to bring home for dinner. Keep up the good work

Reviewed April 8, 2023 - Great staff, atmosphere and menu options. Fish tacos are amazing (gluten free!), lobster bites are a must too! We only dined here once on our trip but tried to go again as it was one of the best meals we had and reasonably priced for the area.
