Why go
The Prince is a strong Singapore pick for a polished central meal when a special occasion needs recognition without the commitment of a $$$$ counter restaurant. Its 2026 MICHELIN Plate gives it a credible trust signal, while the daily lunch and dinner hours make it easier to fit around business meals, dates, or small celebrations.
About The Prince
For a meal in Singapore, The Prince is a sensible pick if the priority is a venue with clearly published hours and recognition. It is in Singapore, observes a smart casual dress code, has lunch and dinner hours daily, carries a 2026 MICHELIN Plate.
The clearest reason to consider visiting is confidence rather than a highly specific promise about cuisine, format, price, or menu. The Prince carries a 2026 MICHELIN Plate, a recognition signal. That matters for diners deciding between The Prince and other dining options: if you are also considering Hamamoto, Ushidoki Wagyu Kaiseki, Revolver, Ingleside, or Ki Su, compare current availability, menu details, pricing directly with each venue before committing.
A Singapore meal without overclaiming the format
The Prince works well as a Singapore venue with both lunch and dinner hours. Hours are listed as lunch from 12–2:30 PM Monday to Friday and 12–3 PM Saturday and Sunday, with dinner from 5:30–11 PM every day. The smart casual dress code also gives diners a useful planning cue.
For takeout, delivery, dietary needs, menu structure, other service details, check The Prince's official channels before visiting. The strongest reason to consider The Prince is its Singapore setting, daily lunch and dinner hours, smart casual dress code, 2026 MICHELIN Plate recognition.
Where it fits against other choices
Compared with other named options such as Hamamoto and Ushidoki Wagyu Kaiseki, The Prince should be evaluated on its details rather than assumptions about price, cuisine, or reservation style. If the decision depends on a particular menu, budget, or format, verify those details directly with each venue.
Revolver, Ingleside, Ki Su may also come up in the same planning conversation, but the right comparison depends on what each diner needs on the day: timing, availability, dress expectations, current menu information. For The Prince, the grounded planning advantages are its daily lunch and dinner windows, smart casual dress code, 2026 MICHELIN Plate.
The planning call is direct: use The Prince when you want a Singapore venue with recognition and clearly listed hours.

For groups, solo diners, dietary requests, or any special arrangements, confirm directly with the venue before you go.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
The Prince presents a warm, quietly refined interior that leans into Middle Eastern references without pastiche. Earthy ochres and rattan pendants bathe the room in amber light, while Moorish geometric motifs thread through the decor. The shophouse footprint gives the space a historic, intimate feel: a bar-forward front that suits shorter visits, and a rear dining room where the open kitchen introduces the sounds and motion of live cooking. The overall effect is cozy and inviting, a contemporary translation of Arabic interiors that feels both considered and easygoing.
Best For
The restaurant shapes different kinds of evenings depending on where you sit. The front bar is oriented toward after-work drinks and shorter, casual visits, while the rear dining room—with its open kitchen and grilling action—suits a full dinner service and more deliberate meals. Its warm, intimate setting makes it a natural pick for date nights and special-occasion dinners, but the menu’s shareable plates also work well for group dining or celebrations where everyone wants to sample charred meats, layered dips and slow-roasted proteins.
Ordering Tips
Lean into the restaurant’s shared-plate rhythm: begin with the dips and small plates — cashew hummus and baba ghanoush are signature stands — then move to charred and slow-roasted mains. The lamb porterhouse with Ottoman spice and the whole Mediterranean seabass showcase the kitchen’s play on regional proteins; fried cauliflower and lamb kofta make strong accompaniments. If you’re stopping by the bar for drinks and a shorter stay, pick a few dips and a grill-forward small plate; for a full evening, reserve a table toward the rear to watch the open kitchen at work.

Where to book if The Prince is not the fit
Book Revolver if the table wants a more defined cuisine direction and a listed $$$ price tier. Choose Ki Su when vegetarian dining or lower spend matters more than the MICHELIN Plate signal.
For a bigger celebration, Hamamoto and Ushidoki Wagyu Kaiseki are the more serious splurge options, but they make sense only if the group wants sushi or wagyu kaiseki specifically.
Restaurant context
How The Prince compares in Singapore
The Prince is the easier recommendation for diners who want a recognized Singapore restaurant without committing to the higher-spend, narrower formats at Hamamoto or Ushidoki Wagyu Kaiseki. Choose Hamamoto if sushi is the whole point, Ushidoki if the group is ready for a $$$$ Japanese meal. Choose The Prince when the table includes mixed preferences or the occasion needs polish more than a single-format splurge.
Revolver is the better cross-shop for diners who want Indian-leaning, higher-energy cooking at a listed $$$ tier. Ki Su is the clearer value play at $$, especially for vegetarian diners or groups watching spend. Ingleside is a reasonable alternative if availability or location works better, but The Prince has the stronger published recognition signal through its 2026 MICHELIN Plate.
For booking difficulty, The Prince should be treated as the lower-friction option in this set. It is the practical pick for business lunch, a date night that should feel considered, or a celebration where the group does not want the formality and price pressure of the $$$$ Japanese venues.
