The Tamil PrinceA-

115 Hemingford Rd, London N1 1BZ · Indian restaurant, Pub, Restaurant · Barnsbury

Destination South Indian cooking in a buzzy ex-pub with standout dosas, lamb chops, and attentive service, though reservations, time limits, and crowding can frustrate.

The verdict

The Tamil Prince delivers exceptional food quality with bold, confident South Indian cooking—dosa, lamb chops, and channa bhatura earn consistent praise—paired with strong service attentiveness and efficient pacing. The grade reflects solid execution across dimensions, though tight seating and limited comfort and occasional consistency variation prevent it from reaching grade A territory. Worth a special trip for those seeking modern South Indian excellence in an intimate, lively setting.

One caveat: Booking friction and deposits frustrate some diners; limited phone/email responses reported
