Los Moros

We went for a late lunch and the atmosphere was welcoming and the aromas exiting. We ordered 2 small plated and a large plate each. My large plate was the Ox cheek witch was succulent and deeply flavourful with an excellent sauce. As for small plates I had the Hummus witch was perfectly creamy and the Butterflied Sardines witch were both delicate and vibrant. customer service was immaculate the friendly staff made dinning here a delight. Food 5/5, customer service 5/5.

6 STARS. Wish it were possible....here it is deserved. My favourite restaurants are ones that are focused on a particular region with a chef who knows it but can play upon it and has amazing food at a fair but reasonable cost. Tariq at Los Moros is this chef - Algerian dna through the exceptional food. Moreover, he is supported by an amazing team of servers who are attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and great at their jobs. OK- the restaurant is on two floors, so if downstairs looks busy, don't despair. At weekends, I'm guessing booking would be advisable. I went on a Wednesday, and it was very busy.....amazing restaurants are. Onto the food - started with the eastern fried chicken. 😋 Juicy strips of chicken 🐔 with a crispy flavoured coating, topped with sumac, and aromatic mayonaise-consistency sauce. Sausages 🌭 - los moros merguez- succulent lamb combined with a cucumber cacik🥒, rather like tartae sauce almost, with urfa🌶 chili oil. They sell these at the nearby market. Unreal. The must have item on the menu. I then had the special, which was a duck🦆 confit, and Algerian bean stew. Sublime. Finally, as I'd bought a bottle of delicious Lebanese wine,🍷 I went for the hummus. Stunning. This, as many people will see from my many reviews, ranks up there and certainly meal of the year so far. A superb local and independent restaurant that comes very highly recommended indeed. Thank you very much, and thankfully, I will be back in York for work soon so will see you again! 😊 ❤️

After hearing a lot of brilliant reviews about Los Moros, we decided to give it another visit. It’s a wonderful little North African restaurant which offers both small and big plates. Here we have- 🥩 Ox Cheek Tangia ⭐️ 🍗 Eastern Fried Chicken ⭐️ It was difficult to decide which one was our favourite between the EFC & Tangia. The beef was so tender and was a proper homely dish. Whilst the ZFC Chicken was so crispy and came with a lemon mayo which was unreal and so different to any fried chicken we’ve had before 😍 We’re probably giving our visit a 8/10 ⭐️ .We will be back though, as there are plenty of other dishes that we still need to try and the staff were so so friendly, however, we will say it’s pretty spenny!

In York for the ice trail and found this gorgeous little restaurant by complete chance. They allowed our dog in with us and proceeded to serve us the most amazing meal - delicious, atmospheric, and a fantastic way of finding out more about new cultures. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in York and have some time to spare.
