What is Tempo?

A Houston restaurant built for food, music, work, and community.

Tempo powered by Butterfunk brings comfort food, brunch, late-night plates, daytime Wi-Fi, and music-inspired energy to 6213 Richmond Ave.

The idea

Kitchen open. Music on.

Tempo is not trying to be only one thing. It is a restaurant first, powered by the food soul of Butterfunk. It is also a room that changes pace during the day: useful in the morning, social at dinner, and alive late at night.

The name says the whole thing. Tempo is about rhythm. Houston moves fast, slow, early, late, focused, loud, hungry, and everything between. The room is being built to meet that pace.

Powered by Butterfunk

Comfort food with a new rhythm.

The food direction comes from Butterfunk: catfish, wings, plates, brunch, Southern sides, desserts, drinks, and late-night comfort food that anchors the table.

Tempo gives that food a new Houston home with a music-inspired identity and a bigger daily purpose.
