Morito Exmouth Market
Sam and Sam Clark's tapas-bar sister to Moro — eight metres along the same row, the small-plate version of the same kitchen.

| Last reviewed: May 2026 Morito opened in 2010 two doors east of Moro on Exmouth Market as the Clarks' tapas-only sister: the same Moorish-Andalusian-Levantine palate, broken into £5-£12 small plates, served from an open kitchen along a fifteen-seat L-shaped counter and a handful of small tables. The cooking is the same vocabulary as Moro — pan-fried prawns with garlic and chilli, lamb chops with cumin and harissa, beetroot borani — but the room is twenty-five seats, no reservations after early evening, the kind of London dinner the audience walks to from a Sadler's Wells curtain. Sam Clark's Hackney Road branch followed in 2017; this is the original.
Editor's Tip
Counter seats are the order — book early or arrive at 17:00 for walk-ins. The crispy aubergine, the lamb chops and the beetroot borani are the through-line plates. Cash for the bar; cards for tables. Sister Morito Hackney Road is the larger evening room if Exmouth Market is full.
