The Tamil Crown is a London restaurant known for its unique take on Indian-style Sunday roast dinners, offering a blend of traditional British roast elements with vibrant South Indian flavors. It is a sister restaurant to the acclaimed 'The Tamil Prince' and has expressed ambitions for a Michelin star. The venue provides a lively atmosphere, particularly on Sundays.
Customers highly praise The Tamil Crown for its delicious Tamil/Indian cuisine and intense flavors. The Indian-style Sunday roasts are a significant draw, with meat options like lamb shank and chicken generally receiving positive feedback for tenderness and taste, though some noted the lamb could be fatty or chicken slightly dry. The vegetarian roast, however, received mixed reviews, with some finding it more akin to a regular South Indian meal. Starters such as okra fries, onion bhajis, and chicken lollipops are consistently highlighted as exceptional. Service is frequently described as friendly, happy, and accommodating, contributing to a great atmosphere, especially on Sundays. While some consider the restaurant pricey, others find the meals well-priced for the quality. A practical note from some customers is that the dining hall is located up small, narrow stairs, which can be challenging for those with buggies.
The Tamil Crown is located at 16 Elia St, London N1 8DE. It is part of the same culinary family as 'The Tamil Prince', a well-regarded establishment in London's food scene.
Sundays are particularly recommended to experience their popular Indian-style roast dinners. It's also a great spot for dinner any day.
