   Beautiful space. Fantastic bread. Dishes were all delicious, full of flavour, fresh and plentiful. Malaga raisin ice cream was the perfect end to a lovely meal. Thank you

   Lovely to be back here after a long break. Great service and lovely atmosphere. Food as laid back as ever, rose water and cardamom ice cream to die for. Very noisy but that goes with the territory!

   While the food was rustic, which can be appreciated for a Mediterranean style restaurant, the execution was fairly poor and deserves to be more refined. The pigeon appetizer was nice, and something of a novelty for less adventurous people who may have never tried it. The watermelon salad was also good, but for 10£ should be more sophisticated and innovative than simply mixing three ingredients together with sliced mint. Couldn't anyone place watermelon, feta, and purslane into a bowl? All of the side dishes were swimming in a pool of liquid (which means bland and not flavorful). The hake was undercooked, and though it claimed to be "wood grilled", didn't seem like it had touched fire. Saffron rice with the lamb was very mushy and bland. Cacık is always a toss-up (every place makes it thinner or thicker with varied amounts of garlic), and theirs was less than average. It sort of lacks creativity to serve it with lamb when you can get the same thing in any typical döner or gyro place. Some kind of sauce would show more appreciation to the guest expecting an upscale experience. Chicken was moist and well seasoned, but came with watery beans sloppily cooked with red onions that washed out all other flavors. The apricot and chocolate tart, along with being a weird combination, is served with a puddle of "yoghurt sauce" that tastes like spoiled cream. Maybe make a whipped cream or ice cream that at least has shape rather than pouring liquid onto a plate? If I had been served any of this at a taverna in Greece or a slightly more pretentious tourist place on the Mediterranean, I definitely wouldn't complain because it would cost 14€ a plate at most, if that. But I've also had much better meals in London for half the price. In fact, the owners have two sister "Morito" locations that appear to be more affordable. Seems like they're neglecting their flagship location that should maintain higher standards if it's lasted so many years.

    The food was delicious, the wood roasted chicken was succulent and the salad lovely. The mackeral flat bread was perfectly balanced flavours with brilliantly cooked fish and just the right level of zing. We didn't need the potato bravas but they were too good to miss.

    Excellent lunchtime venue outside on terrace in the sunshine. Rabbit and ceviche starters were very good, followed by mains of charcoal grilled lamb and pork which went well with glasses of Elias Mora!

    This place feels like it is resting on its laurels. we ordered mains, no starters. I had the Pork belly. Both dishes came suspiciously quickly. For mine the vegetables were a kind of mush of peas and potatoes, and the meat looked like it has spent a little time under a hot lamp. For the price and reputation (and memories of days past) this was a disappointing and expensive experience.

    Food was nice. We had the lamb, great flavours but lacked texture. The sea bass was lovely but could have had a smaller portion beans on the side and another vegetable. The house red wine was great and the cava less so. Overall compared to other similar restaurants, it is a bit expensive and therefore we will not rush to come back.

    Our fabulous ballet nearby was cut short. Luckily MORO gave us an earlier slot! We were thrilled as we live far away but we totally adore eating at Moro ( yes, I have all the books) Much more than a meal, a round experience of sensuous earthy moorish food where EVERYONE looks concentrated in happiness! Including the chefs and staff ( hello lovely cracking smile Emma) with top professionalism and warm smiles. Ooh.., great list of wines too. ENJOY. We did .

    I already love Moro in Exmouth Market London but my friend and I had a wonderful meal there yesterday and spent 4 hours eating drinking and catching up after months apart. The food was magnificent and the waiting staff were kind efficient and attentive but never pushy.

    Very friendly and popular restaurant but the noise level made any conversation difficult. Starters and desserts more interesting than mains. Vegetarian mezze disappointing. Try and get table outside if you want to speak to your dinner guests.

    The food and service were both excellent. Unfortunately, the noise levels in the restaurant were literally unbearable. I could not hear my dining companions speak, and the constant unpleasant noise made the whole experience horrible and ruined what was otherwise an amazing meal. I don’t understand why restaurant owners inflict such bad acoustics on their clientele; absolutely no-one over the age of 29 enjoys it. I will not return to Moro until they do something about the acoustics and noise levels. This is not difficult to solve.
