Pepper Lunch Restaurant is a halal-certified Japanese casual dining chain offering a unique DIY Teppan dining concept that has been delighting Singapore diners since its halal certification on February 8th, 2021. With over 30 outlets across three concepts - Pepper Lunch, Pepper Lunch Express, and Pepper Lunch GO! - the restaurant provides premium steaks and signature pepper rice that customers cook themselves on patented iron plates. The teppan plates can be heated up to 260°C in just 70 seconds, ensuring tender and juicy meat while creating an interactive dining experience.

The restaurant's signature dish is the classic Beef Pepper Rice, featuring U.S. beef slices served with flavorful short-grain rice, seasoned with freshly ground black pepper and signature margarine, topped with fresh corn and green onions. Premium steak options include the GIANT 230-gram ribeye steak, along with 200-gram and 150-gram diced cut steaks, featuring well-marbled Australian Ribeye and Striploin cuts. The DIY concept allows customers to customize the exact doneness of their meat while enjoying the sizzling experience.

Pepper Lunch's halal certification ensures that Muslim diners can enjoy this unique Japanese dining concept without compromising their dietary requirements. The restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients, interactive cooking experience, and accessibility through multiple locations has made it a popular choice for families and individuals seeking fun, engaging meals that combine Japanese innovation with halal standards.

Did not enjoy my dinner. The plates were not at the required heat, and the meat was cut too thick, making it difficult to cook. Additionally, many flies were disturbing during the meal, possibly due to the open kitchen and food not being cleared promptly. The staff seemed to stand around clueless. This was my first and last time visiting this outlet.

I'm actually confused by the bad reviews here. I've just returned to Singapore, and while customer service here isn't generally good, at Pepper Lunch, I was greeted with a smile for the first time. The counter staff took the time to explain all the combos, and based on what I liked (and missed from Pepper Lunch), she also advised what to order. The food was well-portioned (a rarity in Singapore) and full of umami. The service was prompt, making it an all-round great dining experience. Obviously, the price isn't as cheap as when they were in the kopitiam, but by today's standards, you can still get a full set meal with a side and rice for under S$20, which I think is not bad. My only suggestion is to allow more customization. For example, if you want Hamburg, you need to pair it with diced beef steak or normal beef, etc., so I can't mix it with chicken or salmon, which is a little frustrating. From a 4-star rating on my last review to a 1-star today. Terrible service, terrible professionalism, and uncouth staff talking so loudly, almost shouting at me when I asked where the brown sauce was (which I was accustomed to on previous orders). This caused a great degree of embarrassment and they also placed the drink cap-less and precariously at the edge of the tray, causing a massive spillage on my shirt. It was just an all-round terrible look, like it was their first day on the job. So off-putting. Why was the rice, for the first time ever, served in a separate bowl? Usually, it's on the main plate with the meat, as was the case for my mum's meal and everyone else's. This just ruined my appetite. Whatever happened to what used to be an amazing place? Now it's just a horrible experience. Do the new staff get trained at this place? Stop shouting at customers.

Always been a fan of Pepper Lunch, but today's cutlery and the staff's attitude were very bad. The tone she used was very rude. I found out the person's name was Jenny. Very rude. The spoon and forks were not even clean...

Checked out the new Pepper Lunch and got the chicken with an extra egg. It came out sizzling hot like always. Tastes just like the other outlets, which is a good thing. The chicken was tender, the egg mixed in nicely, and the whole dish was just solid comfort food. Nothing new, but that’s what I like about it. It's reliable and hits the spot when you're hungry.

Amazing food! The service was also very efficient. I personally liked their usual Beef Pepper Rice here the most, especially with their deals. Unfortunately, the price point for the other meals was steep, which made me a little hesitant to buy. They recently started selling merchandise, which was really cute!

It's been ages since I last ate at the restaurant. I wasn't expecting it to be so filling, but I did feel the sauce wasn't as flavourful anymore.

Had Pepper Lunch at a mall near home. We ordered two meals. The quality was just as expected from Pepper Lunch—consistent. The Jumbo Beef with Egg is my favorite. However, since it was Saturday lunchtime and probably busier than usual, we had to wait over 30 minutes for the food to arrive.

It's nice to have comfortable seating. This outlet is cozy and modern. The best thing the outlet could offer is great customer service. Jeff helped us with our order by asking for our preferences. Knowing your customer is very helpful! The food is good and came relatively fast. I witnessed a server helping an elderly couple cook their food. A warm and nice gesture!
