Los Moros in York

Visitamos recientemente por mi cumpleaños. El restaurante era encantador, buena comida y personal amable. La coliflor crujiente sabía encantador, pero no era crujiente desafortunadamente. Las salchichas picantes de cordero eran preciosas, aunque solo 3 para dos de nosotros, 4 salchichas sería mejor! Los langostinos al ajo y al chile estaban súper (¡necesitábamos pan para trapear la sabrosa salsa!) compartimos las mejillas de res que de nuevo estaba preciosa. Tenemos que volver el próximo verano, ya que el patio exterior parece encantador para sentarse. El único inconveniente en invierno sería visitar los baños que se encuentran en el patio, necesitarían un abrigo! Pero no dejes que eso desanime a nadie, esto se debe a la disposición del edificio antiguo que realmente no se puede cambiar.

Went to The Shambles food market for lunch and picked Los Moros as fancied the halloumi wrap, which was delicious. Later that day we came across their restaurant so went there for dinner. Hummus starter, followed by Hake Dahl for me and beef cheeks for my partner. All delicious.

This was our first time eating at Los Moros after finding a very good review in the Guardian. We weren't disappointed. We received a very friendly welcome and were given some guidance regarding ordering from the sharing menu. We ordered four plates of food to share and some olives to pick at. Food comes when it is ready and in no particular order - all of our choices worked really well together. The Hake and the Ox cheek dishes were exceptional. The service was excellent - thankyou Emina and Maya and your colleague whose name we didn't get. We have no hesitation in recommending and will certainly be back the next time we are in York. Thankyou.

Best wrap I've had ! So much flavour ! The service was excellent and I loved the shambles and its atmosphere so much ! We will be returning !

The food was full of flavour and delicious. Worth a visit! There is also an upstairs sitting area. The cheesecake topped off our delicious dinner. The food was so delicious, I forgot to take a pic of the mains. We had the Hake, cauliflower and potatoes.

Best food I have ever eaten. Flavors perfectly developed. Meats (octopus, duck, beef cheeks, lamb) cooked beautifully with sauces that are both balanced and unique. Completing a tour of over 60 restaurants across England and Italy, this stands out so markedly that I can’t speak more highly. Compliments to the outstanding chef. Portions allow you to enjoy flavors without getting over filled. Do not miss this wonderful delight.

Lovely atmosphere, sat outside in the courtyard. Friendly helpful staff. Drinks were expensive. Food good value A lot of vegan/vegetarian choices that were very well put together. We were greedy and shared 3 small plates to start and 2 larger plates for our mains. The hummus was outstanding, probably the best we have ever had. The sardines fillets were very good and the crispy cauliflower was very tasty. The baked hake with coconut Dahl was superb and flavoursome. The aubergine boat was also packed with flavours. No room for dessert. Will definitely be back. It was busy and would recommend booking.

We found this restaurant completely by chance and were very glad we did. A limited menu but the quality of the food was excellent. I had the cassoulet and my wife had the lamb both of which were served in sauces that were fully of flavour without being too overpowering. The confit of duck and lamb were cooked to perfection. We had the chance to speak to the chef/owner afterwards and could tell he was extremely passionate about his cooking and its Algerian influences.

Came for dinner with my partner - we had 3 small plates (hummus, merguez, fried chicken) and the special main (algerian cassoulet - confit duck, beans) ; the fried chicken was exceptionally lovely, very tender & juicy; the duck was wonderful too, falling off the bone. We had all three desserts but didn't enjoy them as much; the cardamon meringue on the chocolate & coffee mousse was very exciting. plating was beautiful and the courtyard seats were wonderful. service was wonderful, food came quickly, final pleasing detail was the molton brown coastal cypress hand wash in the bathroom.

Stopped off at this small restaurant to have a light lunch. Menu comes with small plates, tapas style, or larger plates. Deep fried chicken was the best, most moist I have tasted. We tried a couple of small plates and a large one for 2, which kept us going. Followed up with exceptional deserts. Outside seating a bonus in the heat, also helped with the covered area. Staff were attentive and offered great advice. Will definitely be back to try some more of the menu.

What a charming restaurant. We were seated in the courtyard and the entire dining experience was gorgeous. Our waitress Florence was attentive and knowledgeable about the food. We chose the sharing plates which were plentiful and I honestly couldn’t pick a favourite as they were all delicious! The red wine that was recommended was a beautiful accompaniment. Lovely restaurant right in the heart of York, by the Minster.

From the moment we stepped into this restaurant we were impressed.The decor,music,attitudes of the staff, and that was before we had even sat down. My husband chose the beef (cheek) and described the taste as possibly one of the best things he’s ever eaten.I had the aubergine boat,aubergine lay on baba ganouche chick peas and topped with pomegranate,taste explosion in the mouth.The main course dishes were of a size that’s left room to try a dessert…Rose cheesecake stunning if you like Turkish delight flavour (I do!) and chocolate mousse which I was informed was mouthwatering.Everything about this restaurant is 5star plus,I only wish I lived closer to it.

A very cute restaurant with delicious food. We stopped for lunch and ordered one small plate and one large plate each. This was enough food for a lunch stop. The food was extremely tasty. The staff were lovely. Would recommend.

Fantastic spot for dinner! A beautiful, cosy restaurant in the heart of york city, with service and food that exceeded my expectations. The grilled octopus and peach cigars were absolutely to die for, could not recommend it more. Cannot wait to hopefully come back to york one day just for those peach cigars!

The food here is delicious, a small but tasty menu. A good range of vegetarian dishes. The service was friendly and relaxed. Would thoroughly recommend.

I was a little dubious about North African cuisine (purely my own ignorance) when my wife suggested this place. However my misgivings were misplaced. Really excellent quality food which was reasonably priced. Best meal we've had in a long time. Humus and flat breads were great. The octopus was so tender. The cassoulet nicely spiced and full of flavour. The young waitress appeared to be inexperienced but she was very pleasant and provided good service. Very happy when we left and will definitely be going back.

Food was great, chicken tagine was fantastic. Service was terrible. I had to chase food and drinks many times and it is sad to say that considering that food was really good. Disappointing.

Excellent food, friendly service. Saturday evening in York, the menu is quite short but the food is very good, and the service friendly

Such great food! A small menu but enough variety. Every dish was outstanding and simply but beautifully presented. Loved the decor, the service was warm and friendly. We had tapas and I highly recommend the crisp spinach feta parcels and the eastern fried chicken. Only suggestion might be to have a couple more vegetable options on the tapas menu. We’ll be back to try the sardines.

Had a wonderful starter for a light lunch (the Butterfly Sardines with spinach stuffing - gorgeous!) and my friend had the Spinach and feta Boureks. We added on the roasted almonds, and the humus with harissa and saltdough bread to share. Hadn't wanted a full lunchtime meal as didn't want to fall asleep during a lecture at the museum that afternoon. This was just right and it's making me hungry as I write! Stunning, thank you all so much!

This was my first time here and I felt so welcomed. The staff and chefs were incredibly attentive and the food tasted amazing (pictured is the Hake and chocolate mousse)

We happened to pass Los Moros when browsing York’s fab streets - what a find! The restaurant looked so cosy & inviting, and the menu was small but with a good variety of great sounding dishes. So, we decided to wait the two hours (in the rain) until it opened to eat there… no small task after walking many miles around York all-day! We were so glad we did… The food was definitely the star of the show - AMAZING! It was so fresh and utterly delicious. Great flavours and clearly cooked with love! I went for a selection of the small plates, my wife and daughter both went for the Chicken tagine. The deserts were next-level. I had the Coffee & Chocolate Mousse (10/10), my wife had the Peach Melba Cigars - I’m guessing it also scored highly as she wouldn’t share it! Los Moros perfectly succeeds at combining all the ingredients necessary to make dining out a treat - it genuinely relaxing, enjoyable and memorable. Such a shame we live 4-hours away! But we all agreed we’d gladly head back one day… hopefully, sooner rather than later.

Lovely spot for a casual night out. Great food, very tasty. We shared small and large plates between us which worked perfectly. Nice wine too!

This is the third time I have been to Los Moros. The first two times it was fantastic, last night is was not. Service was a bit haphazard, I was given a menu for the special which I ordered only to be told that the...

Very tasty food. Wide variety of dishes. Everything was very tasty. There were many vegetarian options clearly marked. The staff were lovely. We sat outside in a small patio.

Superb North African food- made on the premises, served in a very relaxed dining area inside and out. Every dish was delicious and can’t wait to go back. Great waiter in Matt and the bill did not include an obligatory service charge.

Excellent food with a great balance of taste and spices. Friendly and helpful staff . The ox cheek and hake mains were great. Thanks for a lovely eve!

Visiting with my wife as part of her birthday celebrations (still sat here enjoying a large glass of white) Phenomenal food and even better service. Chicken so well cooked and moist that it falls apart in your mouth. Hummus with flavour combinations that it makes...

Beautiful restaurant,great food. We sat outside in the garden which is prepared if it rains with a closing roof. It was lovely sitting down there listening to the music played through the speakers. The food was delicious, I had an aubergine boat stuffed with vegetables...

We chose Los Moros for a Bithday Eve dinner with close friends and family, we have known Tariq for some time and knew he would provide an evening of great food and atmosphere. We were a party of 14 and opted for a set menu...

We shared everything and cleared all the plates;-) The special casserole with duck confit and beans was delish. Merguez so tasty, shakshuka yummy, Eastern fried chicken, borek, everything was done well. Friendly service. We will be back!!

We read about this place in a newspaper article. So decided to give it a try. With outrxception each dish was a taste sensation. We ordered the spinach and feta bourek and the fried chicken with preserved lemon Mayo. Then we order fried cauliflower with...

Wow !! What a fantastic place this is....we absolutely loved everything, olives and smoked almonds to nibble on.... Sardines, Eastern fried chicken and Merguez sausages for starters...Ox cheek, grilled Octopus and Lamb main courses and Peach Melba cigars and Rose cheesecake for dessert. The food...

Myself and 2 colleagues came for dinner whilst on a work trip on a recommendation and it did not disappoint. Food was absolutely delicious, I had the ox cheek and others had the octopus and the chicken. It was a whole table quiet moment whilst...

Arranged to meet a lady relative for lunch in York. As always start with a rummage on Tripadvisor then book somewhere hoping that others had enjoyed as they said. Also noted that a certain Jay Rayner had recently enjoyed Los Moria, obviously a good place,...

This was a great night out , good food, nice staff and authentic atmosphere. I would really recommend the spinach and feta boureks as they were very light and tasty 😋! Everything was sublime but one small (but perfectly formed) plate that stood out was...

Managed to get a table last minute and late evening, so we were really lucky. Staff were really friendly. Food was really tasty and interesting. The lamb rump and chicken tagine were really good. Nice space inside (not too crowded) with the option to sit...

The food here (North African and middle-eastern) was delicious. We ate in the outside garden which was particularly nice on a hot night. The service was also very good.

We were visiting York and picked Los Moros as the menu was different from the usual. The Los Moros menu is small, but with enough options to satisfy most. We were seated downstairs although I think there is much more capacity upstairs and in a...

Utterly excellent! Every dish we ordered was delicious and perfectly cooked. Wine List is well matched to the food and generally very good, service is perfect, surroundings well designed and well kept. A must visit!

Bit disappointed after many good visits in the past. The North African vibe seems to have been reduced with the introduction of Haxby bakery sourdough bread and things like mussels on toast. The range of dips has been reduced to hummous, the falafel has gone...

What a find! The food was superb, the ambience excellent and the staff very pleasant. We had the best prawns we've ever eaten anywhere. All the dishes were really delicious and excellent value.

This place is incredible, can’t recommend going here enough. We had a lovely evening here and the staff were so friendly & attentive. We ordered 3 small plates - the hummus, borek and merguez which were so delicious, we’ll be going back especially for those...

Great experience. Delicious food with new and exciting flavours. Pleasant homely atmosphere and good service. Will recommend and return.

Visited for the first time after really enjoying the food at their pop up. Wow the food was so so beautiful. Very different and intricate flavours, wonderful attention to detail and real care. We ordered a mixture of things and really enjoyed every mouth full....

For the price, ridiculously good value! I would go so far as to say it's Michelin star standard. I've had worse in Michelin restaurants for three times the price. Amazing flavours

Oh my days it was amazing. The food!!! I dream of it. Also the atmosphere was lovely, the staff were so friendly and the service was amazing. Favourite, favourite restaurant.

Second time we have visited York and second time we have been to Los Moros. Excellent, genuine food done to a great standard. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Really hope we get to come for a third time. Thank you so much.

Excellent food, very good service and reasonable prices. We had two small plates and two mains which were all delicious.

Tried to book here on previous trip to no avail so we were glad to get a table booked early. Intruiging menu, not huge, but different. As soon as our food began to arrive it was obvious the skill in the design and delivery of...

Referring to the street food unit in the Shambles Market - absolutely delicious food! It was Tuesday lunch time and we managed to find seats easily, although we could have eaten and walked as it was well packaged. Will definitely visit again

Little plates of delicious loveliness. Good, friendly service too (all the staff said thank you when we left, which was really pleassant). The physical environment is also very well done.

The food was absolutely top quality stuff. The lamb was worth the little extra wait time, and they give you just the right amount of food to satisfy without feeling bloated. They were able to seat us without a reservation, the staff were friendly and...

Nice food, we ordered the king prawns which were slightly tough and overdone, but the other food we had was lovely! A nice atmosphere inside too!

Managed to secure a last minute table on a Saturday night! The food was excellent, we had the Smoked Haddock Croquettes, Prawns and the Aubergine dip. The Prawns were by far the biggest, juiciest prawns I have ever had. I’d had a few beers and...

Really good food, cooked to order. Small menu which means everything is fresh and tasty. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Well worth a visit

Had the pleasure of going for food last night. The staff are amazingly friendly and nothing was too much trouble. They took the time to explain the dishes and recommended several small plates in order that we could experience more of the authentic North African...

Fantastic honest food. Packed full of flavour, beautifully presented and true to its roots. Service was spot on, attentive but not intrusive. Wished we lived here so could go again. Highly recommend!

I don't usually write reviews, but after visiting there with a friend on a Tuesday night and experiencing the excellent service, there was no way I couldn't. Amazing food was served. I understand now why it’s a Michelin guided restaurant. Particularly the lamb rump which...

I came here for the first time and I was so impressed with the food and service we had. We ordered a selection of starters and all of them were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious as was the main meal and my dessert. The staff...

Was passing and liked the sound of the menu for lunch. Food was very nice and a little different. Staff very friendly. All in all a very pleasant experience. Will recommend and would also return.

Let me start by saying the food was absolutely delish. If I was just reviewing the food this would be a 4* rating. Unfortunately the service let this restaurant down considerably. Today we went to Los Moros for what we hoped would be a romantic...

Came here for my wedding meal (party of 26) a week ago and I have no regrets! Everything was perfect. The food was delicious and everybody enjoyed it. The service was amazing and the team really made it a special day. We had a selection...
