Superb chicken wrap made with a generous portion of fresh ingredients, the beetroot slaw was the best bit all served by very knowledgeable staff, will diffo be back
Stayed in York Monday to Friday and although we ate some fantastic food in various places this was hands down the one to beat.
For the life of me I don't remember the name of what I ordered but it was absolutely faultless, spicy homemade sausage in a crispy French style bread with a beautifully fresh carrot (and maybe coriander) slaw, extra harissa and a gorgeous minty, yoghurty, saucy thing! Heaven!
Add to this a complementary Moroccan mint tea and my lord!!
A 3 hour drive from the south east was well worth it for this alone, if Los Moros operated in my home town I'd lunch there every day without a doubt.
The best street food you'll taste! The chicken wraps are to die for!
Always great food and friendly service. Tariq makes mint tea for you while you wait for your food to be freshly cooked. Try the merguez sausage in a baguette with spicy Harissa, shaved carrot and mint. The best food in the world!
Fanstastic. Gorgeous authentic North African & Middle Eastern street kitchen. Can't recommend it enough!!!
We had the Persian chicken wrap and it was amazing, highly recommend! Just wished we lived nearer
Absolutely amazing. Really some of the best food you can find anywhere. I struggle not to go every single day for lunch.

The best Moroccan grub anywhere. Tell all your friends about this amazing stall. Top guys and great food!
This place never lets me down , popper street food which is hard to find in york , still licking me lips :)
First time trying this type of food, don’t visit York without trying it. Tasty, fresh and original !
Best falafel I have ever eaten, without a doubt!
Visiting York for the day and got the falafel wrap, it was scrumptious, very friendly staff too. Would definitely come back to York just to eat here again!
If I could give this more stars, I would! Shared a Persian Chicken Wrap with my brother & it was sublime. Wish I'd had a whole one to myself. Honestly haven't eaten anything that good in a long time. The balance of flavours was really interesting & spot on & the guys cooking were really lovely & helpful (and handsome!). Damn, I wish I was back living in York again!
I absolutely loved this food, and the owner is very nice and kind! Totally recommend!
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!
Really very good. Fried chicken is unbelievably tender, as is the ox cheek to the point it falls apart. Cassoulet is warning and lightly spiced. Chocolate mousse is quite rich and very flavorful. Thoroughly recommend.
The atmosphere was lovely with spacious tables. We ordered hummus, fried cauliflower as starters and beef cheek tanjia and baked hake for mains. Most dishes were a bit overpriced for their portions and also the hummus and beef were seasoned with too much salt. However overall the food was nice and I especially recommend the hake:)
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.
Had a number of small plates for lunch. All were tasty flavorful and interesting. A great view and great service made this a lovely lunch. Highly recommend the muscles and the chicken small plate.
Another wonderful place to eat in York, the chicken starter especially was tender and delicious, we had a variety of the starters for lunch.
Absolutely exceptional. Wonderful food (we had every single Small Plate and they were all great) and fantastic, attentive, personal service. A lovely restaurant all round, and reasonably priced. Strong recommend! 🤩
Cosy restaurant with exquisite dishes. Every dish was perfectly cooked and prepared with love, from the hummus and flatbreads through to the Eastern fried chicken and shakshuka. The beef tanjia, in particular, was succulent and bursting with flavour. The gentle warming spice and subtlety of the shakshuka was another highlight of the meal. Service was friendly and personable. Highly recommended!
Probably my favourite restaurant in York with delicious food and great service. The menu changes often which is great and the people are very friendly. I can’t recommend this place enough!!
Outstanding North African food in the heart of York. Each item is amazing. The haddock croquettes were especially delicious. The whipped feta is very good, comes with pitas dripping in olive oil. The fish fillet is also very tasty.
In my view this is the best restaurant in York. Trendy North African (Moroccan etc.) restaurants with a compact menu full of interesting, punchy dishes. Everything we tried was tasty, cooked perfectly and full of interesting flavours. The Sea Bass main was exceptional and we really liked the starters of the croquettes and the spicy Merguez sausages. The restaurant is nicely decorated, North African style, its comfortable and fun to be in, with indoor and outdoor seating. The service is professional and friendly. We really enjoyed our visit and we will certainly come back again. Highly recommended.
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.
Food was delicious and service was great. We had the merguez, houmous, ox cheek and octopus and were very happy with everything.
Lovely place for a light lunch or great dinner. The food is fantastic and good for sharing; the servers are really friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. The outside space at the back is amazing in the summer. I will always be coming back to los moros !
Very good food and service located right in the Shambles. Highly recommended.
Had the ZFC chicken - great portion and very delicious. The Falafel was generous and great as well
The garlic bread was delicious sourdough with very subtle garlic flavour.
The king prawns were big but lacking in flavour. It was also not deveined - a bit disappointing.
Overall, a great experience and highly recommended
Fabulous! No other way to describe This place. The food, service and ambiance. Everything was simply fabulous! We ordered the chicken, eggplant dip and sausages for appetizer. The chicken was just cooked so perfectly! And the lemon mayonnaise that it comes with was so tasty my son would not stop dipping his flatbread in it! Ordered one each of the cassoulet, lamb shanks, braised beef and chicken tagine. Again everything was cooked to perfection especially the chicken (I keep mentioning this because so many places overcook chicken breast)! The cassoulet was on the spicier side but yummy.
A lovely hidden gem in the busy city of York! V pretty & modern interior and friendly service. The food were delicious & well presented!
Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to eat here.. the food is superb! The best meal I have had in york for years. Well done and thank you.
