Los Moros

A North African restaurant that started as a Shambles Market stall, famous for its home-style flavors like merguez sausage and tagines.

Located at 15-17 Grape Lane in the old city, this "modern North African kitchen" is run by an owner of Algerian heritage who originally started with a stall in Shambles Market. Signature dishes include merguez sausage with mint and cucumber yogurt and Urfa chili oil, saffron chicken and potato tagine, and Beef Tanjia featuring slow-cooked beef cheek. There are also plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. Guests can order small plates to share or choose individual mains. Expect to spend around £20 to £40 per person, making it more affordable than many modern British restaurants in the same area. Closed Sundays and Mondays; weekend dinner reservations are highly recommended. It is just a few minutes' walk from York Minster, making it a convenient dining option after sightseeing.
