15 Places In Philly To Have A Last-Minute Group Dinner In Philly

"Usually, when you want to remember an epic trip, you grab a t-shirt or endlessly sift through your camera roll. But for the Philadelphians who went to Mexico City and loved it, they can just head to La Roma. With brick walls, candlelight, hanging plants, and pictures of the Colonia Roma all around, the cozy Port Richmond restaurant is inspired by the famous neighborhood. The menu is a mashup of Italian, Japanese, Mexican, and other cuisines you may find around the famous neighborhood. But our favorites here are the chicken empanadas, arancini stuffed with kielbasa and gouda, and short rib tagliatelle ragu. And with an impeccable drink menu and impressive tequila and mezcal lists, it’s a casual place to walk into with a group of friends, sip on a cocktail, and forget you’re right off the Delaware Expressway. " - candis mclean, team infatuation
