Tasca Frango is a Portuguese inspired restaurant at 28 Colliergate in central York. The family run dining room takes its cue from the comfort and conviviality of a Portuguese tasca, using Yorkshire produce in straightforward dishes made for sharing.
Boneless, skin-on chicken thighs are marinated for 24 hours, then chargrilled and basted to give the signature piri piri dish a crisp exterior and juicy centre. Flame grilled chorizo, picanha steak, prawns and halloumi extend the grill selection.
Petiscos and other small plates bring fish, vegetables, sauces and spices to the table, with larger meat and plant based choices available. Pastel de nata and seasonal desserts provide a sweet finish, accompanied by Portuguese wine and cocktails such as a white port tonic.
Booking is advisable for the busy dining room, and a private space can host small groups. Vegan and low gluten options are offered, while guests with allergies or dietary requirements should discuss the current menu and preparation directly with the team.
Address: 28 Colliergate, York YO1 8BN, England
