Tempest Bistro

Top choice in Bermuda


With its stone arches, vaulted ceilings and white linen, this waterside restaurant in an 18th-century building is the most atmospheric place to dine in St George's town. Dishes such as black tiger shrimp with polenta and pan-seared rockfish with citrus are beautifully presented and flavorsome, but the service can veer between frosty and harried.
