"With its lively atmosphere, a private listening room, and large tables throughout the spacious dining room, it’s almost like Fishtown’s LMNO was built for group dinners. When it comes to other highlights, go with the cucarachas (fried shrimp) that swim in a fiery sauce with a subtle masala flavor and the suadero tacos that come filled with hunks of tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef. The Mexican-inspired menu is perfect for your group of friends who love sharing everything or for a celebratory dinner when you finally find parking on Frankford Ave." - candis mclean
"This Mexican restaurant works for friends who want to put some tostadas in their tummies before going out in Fishtown. It's a Starr restaurant, which means it's going to be loud, themed within an inch of its life, and everyone around you will be taking photos for their dating profiles. Get the loaded shrimp nachos and the green aguachile." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"What makes LMNO one of the most exciting dinner spots in the city is their outdoor setup that’s perfect for a night where you want to party without paying a cover at some club. The Fishtown spot has bright yellow and purple cafeteria-style seating, a glowing neon-lit bar that stretches from the interior to the exterior, and a few hanging lights that will shine on your round of tacos. When you head here after work with a few people from the office, the snapper chicharrón with tangy salsa verde is the dish you’ll all be talking about while sipping your morning coffee." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"When you’re heading to Fishtown’s LMNO, the key priorities are to drink near the neon-lit bar, people watch, and listen to music. But that’s why the fried cucarachas (yes, it’s shrimp) at the Mexican restaurant are the perfect things to go for. They’re small, crispy, and perfect to snack on between dancing to Doja Cat and waving to your friends (who can’t hear you). They come with an addictive chili dipping sauce and are indeed jumbo, so they’ll work as a shareable for any group you bring here." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"We can’t describe the sheer joy that comes with eating amazing seafood on a sunny day with a cold margarita in hand, but we’ll try. At Fishtown’s LMNO they have a lineup of aguachiles and cóctels that are as exciting as dinner in the neon-lit clubstaurant. The verde aguachile—packed with shrimp, scallops, crab, melon, onion, and avocado—is an absolute must-order. And that’s because they’re not serving up seafood in a measly, bland pool of citrus water. It’s a texture party of tender seafood and crunch from the peppers and tostadas that works as well for a group dinner as a night when you want DJ-level music without paying a cover for it." - candis mclean
