Have a look at our suggestions for Mexican restaurants in York (and let me know if I have missed any!)
Batanga Mexican Restaurant
9 Franklins Yard, York YO1 9TA
Batanga Mexican Restaurant is down a little alley off Fossgate, underneath the Korean restaurant, Oshibi. It’s a tiny restaurant with just a few tables, which helps give it a friendly feel. I have to say the food was fabulous.
