Steaks and tacos cooking over open fire at temper London

London’s Open-Fire Steak Restaurant

temper is an award-winning steak restaurant in London, cooking everything over live fire. We’re a steakhouse built around an open kitchen and a custom fire pit, where our chefs butcher rare-breed British beef in-house, dry-age every cut and grill it over flame. Alongside the steaks you’ll find smoky tacos, slow-cooked barbecue, bottomless brunch in London and one of London’s best Sunday roasts in London. With restaurants in Soho and the City of London, temper is one of the best steakhouses in London for bold flavour, sharing feasts and a proper night out. Book a table at temper Soho or temper City.

Since 2016, temper has built a reputation as one of London’s best steak restaurants — not for white tablecloths, but for fire, smoke and flavour. Our Soho restaurant on Broadwick Street is home to award-winning Sunday roasts, Saturday bottomless brunch and Taco Tuesday. temper City near Bank serves the same rare-breed beef and fire-cooked tacos to the Square Mile, with a lobster & steak bottomless brunch every Saturday. Whether you are booking a business lunch, a birthday feast or a walk-in Tuesday taco night, temper is a steakhouse London diners come back to.

Every cut on our menu is butchered in-house from whole rare-breed animals, dry-aged and grilled over open flame. That is the temper difference — a steak restaurant and BBQ house where the kitchen is the show, the meat is the star, and the room feels alive every night of the week. Book online for Soho or City, walk in for tacos on Tuesday, or reserve a table for brunch, roast or a private hire feast.

Best steak I’ve ever had. The bone-marrow butter is unreal. Worth every penny.

Hands-down the best Sunday roast in London. The Yorkshire is the size of a small dog.

Bottomless brunch done properly. Not cheap prosecco. Actually good drinks and brilliant food.

Our Meat

Rare-breed beef & in-house butchery.

We buy our meat from a single farmer, Charles Ashbridge in North Yorkshire, and we butcher and age in-house. Since 2016 we’ve been known for rare-breed beef, bold flavours and live-fire cooking. In other words, it’s all f##ing delicious.
