Yakamoz York is a Turkish and Mediterranean restaurant at 55 Goodramgate in central York. Its menu is built for both individual dining and shared meals, with mezze, freshly prepared breads and grilled dishes creating a natural progression across the table.
Cold and hot mezze bring together hummus, aubergine, yoghurt, vegetables, pastry and seafood in a wide range of small plates. Diners can order a few as starters or combine several to make a varied meal, balancing creamy dips with crisp, grilled and sharply dressed ingredients.
Charcoal grilled chicken and lamb, mixed grill platters and seafood provide the more substantial choices. Turkish pide adds a baked option with different toppings, while vegetable dishes and meat free mezze give vegetarian diners enough variety to share in the same style of meal.
Baklava and other desserts offer a sweet finish, with wine, beer, spirits and soft drinks available alongside the food. Sesame, dairy, gluten, nuts, fish and shellfish feature in parts of the menu, so anyone with an allergy should speak to staff before ordering.
