Came back second time for happy hour. And it was definitely worth it: only $2 for an oyster so we ordered 20 of them for 2 people and that was dinner for us. We also got the fish cake, scallop and fries on the side.
I would say this is the best place in Madison for oyster. They offer a wide variety of raw oysters. My fav is the west coasts ones. And those are a bit pricey so going during happy hour is a must. The Rockefeller is always good so if you are new to this restaurant, it is a must try.
Fish cake was perfectly cooked. Very crisp outside and moist inside. Personally for me, the fish flavor is just not as good as crab cake. But if you are judging the chef's cooking skills, it is 10/10 for this one.
Seared scallop with maple syrup was amazing. I love the maple sauce. The only down side of it is that they only serve 1 scallop per order.
Overall, Tempest made it to my regular list. I would recommend this restaurant and would definitely stop by here and there for a good oyster meal
