Me ‘N’ Mo

Food is great… service is very warm and friendly… would highly recommend!

We really like this place. Excellent Italian food, nice atmosphere, not too crowded (yet), friendly family staff. We will definitely frequent Me n Mo often!

Food was fantastic, staff was extremely helpful and polite

This place is great! The atmosphere is cozy/​the right mix of hip and traditional with good music. The food is off the charts– when they say homemade pasta and sauce they mean it. The gnocchi was hands-​down the best I have had, buttery and rich. The basic pasta marinara was just what I wanted– sauced appropriately and a generous portion. Our meal was fantastic from starts to finish.

Honestly, I just think Me N Mo is really cute. Cute name, cute restaurant, perfect for date night.
The food is pretty good — probably some of my favorite Italian food. I got traditional meatballs and loved ‘em. I do think the prices are a little steep ($ 8 for just meatballs — pasta is extra) but it was worth it. We also had the chocolate soufflé/​lava cake for dessert and it was sooo tasty.
I love that it’s family-​owned. The staff was all really friendly and attentive which is a nice change from most of the other places on South Street. I would definitely come back to try a different kind of meatball!
FYI– the place is cash only, but they do have an ATM inside.

I didn’t expect much as we stopped in front if this restaurant. We hadn’t planned to come here, but the place we wanted to go to was closed because of a funeral. Looked at the menu outside and although it all sounded great, the taste of it would tell the real story. What a great story.
Had to try the Traditional Meatballs, because if the basics aren’t done right I know where the night is headed. They were GREAT. Everyone thought they were perfect.
A friend ordered the Lemon Chicken, and she LOVED it. The portion was generous and she took a little home with her.
I had the Gnocci and Sausage. It did not disappoint. The order did come out about 10 minutes after everyone else’s, but the owner came to out table and told me that due to our arriving late in the evening, the kitchen was closing in 15 mins, that they ran out of Gnocci and he ran to the store for ingredients to make some on the spot. I would have ordered something else if he would have said something, but i think the wait was worth it.

Stopped in randomly after overhearing some people leaving saying it was the best meal of their trip. Did not disappoint. Pasta is all homemade and fabulous. Meatballs were absolutely delicious and service was excellent. They even had some cheerios and snacks to dispense up front to distract our 21 month old while we waited for our meal. Great spot for a lovely home-​y Italian meal and a great way to spend our Sunday night!

Best Italian food I’ve ever had. The bruschetta and mussels were out of this world. I had the meatball sub which had, hands down, the best meatballs and sauce I’ve ever had. I had to have a side of gnocchi and all their hand made pastas are outstanding. My wife and mother both had the wild mushroom ravioli and raved about the dish. My brother had the salmon and he said it was fantastic. The place is a BYOB, but it also has a full bar. The wine list is excellent and very reasonable. I did not have anything from the beer list, but it was a surprisingly solid list with several top local craft beer choices. Dinner was topped off my a shared tiramisu which was. like everything else, the best I’ve ever had.
The restaurant is a family owned establishment and is very comfortable and welcoming. It may be on the casual side, but I think it’s one of the top restaurants in Philadelphia

This restaurant is the reincarnation of a restaurant I used to to before it suffered a fire and closed The old restaurant was good the reincarnation is great I tried a test ordering my favorite dish Osso Buco it was out of sight I’ve gone to all the Italian restaurants in Philly but this place is as good as the best To top it off it is dirt cheap Two Hendricks Osso Buco Tiramisu Double Expresso Grappa The bill was $ 40 Try to top that You don’t have to order Osso Buco You can order pasta and meat balls That’s what its abbreviated name stands for Meatballs and More Ciao Bella!

We ate at Me’N Mo tonight and my God what a delicious meal!!! It was just exceptional!!!
My son has eaten here many, many times but this was our first time and we will definitely be back again. The restaurant is a family owned business and that is very apparent when you walk in the door. We were greeted so warmly and made to feel so comfortable right away.
I had the eggplant, my husband had the lobster and shrimp ravioli, my son had the braised lamb shank and my grandson had the meatballs with marinara sauce. We also all had individual meatballs with different sauces. The portions were more than generous (I have lunch and dinner for tomorrow night home with me) and the freshness and wonderful, flavorful ingredients were easily tasted in all our meals. The service was phenomenal with Giancarlo the owner stopping by our table several times during the night to check to see how our meals were.
The restaurant is cash only and very very reasonable for the quality of food they give you as well as the portions they give you. If I could give this place 10 stars I would that was how good our meals were as well as how good the whole experience was!!!
Well worth a trip into the city to experience Me’N Mo!!! Exceptional evening was had by all!!!

Delicious homemade food in a cozy little spot. Great deals on wine ($ 15 house carafe). Everything is made on site so food takes a little longer but you know it’s made with love! Plus plenty of vegetarian options!!! We live a block away and will definitely go back !

Really great! Just happened in here by accident. Got the meatballs with marinara on spaghetti. Simple and amazing. My friend got the gnocchi with mushroom sauce and that was the best and I dot normally even like gnocchi. Our waitress was super friendly too. Definitely give this place a shot.

This was hands down the most amazing Italian food I’ve had. I’ve been to Italy, and yet it didn’t compare! This is a family-​owned business that my friends and I found on Unilocal while seeking to carbo-​load before our Tough Mudder. We walked into a warm and cozy place with extremely friendly service and AMAZING food.
We all got meatballs (one of us got the veggie meatballs) with different sauces and spaghetti. To die for. I had the pork meatballs (spicy and delicious) and the sauce a la vodka.
It was so amazing that we ended up driving 90 mins to come back the very next day, after our Tough Mudder. One of the owners, Giancarlo (we also met his father and his daughter who work there – truly lovely family), greeted us warmly and was so pleased we had returned. We had bruschetta (for the second time, so perfect), and everyone had the sauce a la vodka with their spaghetti and meatballs! We found a favorite. I wish they bottled it so we could bring it home with us!
Giancarlo knew we had just finished a long run, and he surprised us with a giant salad (perfectly dressed), brought my boyfriend a beer, and just made us feel so welcome and warm. We are even Facebook friends now, and he made us feel truly at home.
By the way, it’s cash only but they have an ATM inside and they take the $ 2 ATM fee off your bill! Also it’s incredibly affordable. We were impressed. Truly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a restaurant. I won’t return to Philly without going here at LEAST once! Cannot recommend highly enough.

I decided to try this place after seeing it on FYI Philly. It specializes in meatballs, so you get to choose from a bunch of different types of meatballs done in different ways. I Sampled a few different kinds of meatballs, and they were good, but nothing special. The pasta is also good, but nothing special. This is a nice spot to grab some spaghetti and meatballs if you happen to be hanging around South Street. But it doesn’t stand out in any way. The most memorable thing about my meal there is that Alicia Vitarelli, from FYI Philly, was dining there at the same time with her family.

Excellent food! The meatballs were all tasty, the sauces homemade, and the entrée portions large. No complaints on food all around.
However, our small party had a hard time with the noise level, which can really be make or break when you want to have a nice, social dinner. A nearby party of about 6 left about halfway through our meal which helped, but they weren’t extraordinarily loud. The music playing included The Doors and Neil Young (that I can remember), and was generally too loud.
Basically, it’s a great space with amazing food, but the ambiance is severely lacking. I’m not saying I need to hear Rosemary C’ooney or Lou Monte when I walk into the place, but without any sound barriers, I think some softer mood music could do wonders for the in-​house experience.

I never had one of those Italian grandmothers that you see in the media. You know, the short, plump ladies who you never see without an apron, hand permanently glued to a saucy wooden spoon that practically lives in the kitchen.
«Eat, eat! You’re wasting away!!»
My grandmothers’ specialties were deviled eggs and baked beans, or sneaking me Godiva chocolates from the fridge. Needless to say, I loved them… But I kinda liked the idea this Italian grandma. Someone whose only goal was to fill the bellies and hearts of everyone around her and keep the house warm and smelling of gravy and sausage. It’s no surprise, then, that I immediately felt at home walking into the doors of Me N Mo, South Street’s new meatball home, specializing in balls of meat and pasta to eat!
I was lucky enough to attend a pretty fantastic grand opening party and the staff pulled out all the stops. And, by all the stops, I mean just about any meatball you could imagine! Stuffing fontina into meatballs? Brilliant. Making ANY chicken based dish Buffalo-​style? My kinda joint. They also have some more traditional options, including spicy pork and beef. But, oddly enough, my favorite was a combination I never even considered. Pork and Shrimp?! No, these bad boys aren’t Kosher at all. But they ARE delicious, moist, and jam-​packed with savory flavor.
The cost for four meatballs of any type, sauce and some Sarcone’s bread is $ 8 which is honestly a little steep for beef meatballs alone, IMHO. However, I think that for some of the more interesting options (Pork and shrimp, lamb!!) it would be worth a trip. You can also get a buttload of balls from their catering menu, as a few of my friends did for Super Bowl Sunday this year. Nice little variety from the standard pizza and wings offerings, and who doesn’t wanna show up to a party armed with buckets of balls?
…maybe don’t answer that.

I’ve driven/​walked past Me ‘N’ Mo too many times to put off trying it. What a cool place. I went with my roommate Friday night and it wasn’t too busy at all. You walk in and there’s a little area where you can get cereal (if it’s early or meatballs aren’t your thing).
There’s a great amount of room here. 15 or so tables, not too cramped plus there’s a bar. Very simple menu: meatballs, sides, one sandwich, or desserts. You can pick your type of meat with the meatball plus whatever sauce you want on it. There are too many options to not be pleased here. Plus they have specials!
I went with one of the specials, the buffalo chicken meatballs and a side of gnocchi with pesto sauce. The meatballs were actually really good. I recommend them. Four meatballs is $ 8, plus the gnocchi was $ 5. Cash only as others have said, so come prepared (there’s also an ATM inside if you don’t). The meatballs come pretty quickly with bread too.
My roommate with one of the specials: chicken parmesan. Me ‘N’ Mo hooks up the fresh pasta. Can’t beat that. Light and filling.
It was a good amount of food, but I was intrigued by all of the mystery surrounding the chocolate soufflé Is it a soufflé? Is it a chocolate lava cake? As someone with a lot of dessert experience, I can dispel any confusion: it is a chocolate lava cake. Even some of the staff refer to it as such, even though it is labeled a soufflé on the menu.
The chocolate lava cake was pretty good. It was a hair overcooked. Comes with a scoop of strawberry ice cream and the plate is glazed with a zig zag of mango purée (side not: this is the most accented vowels I’ve used in a review).
I’d absolutely return to Me ‘N’ Mo. I was happy with our choice to go there, and I recommend it to anyone looking to try a new place. Plus, who doesn’t like meatballs? (Sorry, vegans)

Me N Mo was a last minute dinner decision. We recently heard about it from an article online so we decided to give the new restaurant a try. There was plenty of seating (not many people in the restaurant… not sure if it is because it is new). We ordered the pork and shrimp meatball special, the lamb meatballs with the pesto sauce, and the gnocchi with a mushroom cream sauce. The pork and shrimp meatballs were «different,» I didn’t love them. The lamb meatballs were very good (they melted in your mouth) and the pesto sauce was very good. The gnocchi with the mushroom cream sauce was good (i have had slightly better elsewhere). The prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. Don’t forget that Me N Mo is cash only!

Went here a week ago and had the vegetarian meatballs and gnocchi. The balls, so to speak, were decent. I wished for a little more spice but truth be told I’d order them again– maybe this time as a sandwich. I definitely want to try the other sauces too (went with marinara this time). The gnocchi, however, was homemade and delicious! I’m still thinking about that gnocchi.
The interior was charming. It was practically empty when we went but then again it was a weekday. Waitstaff were exceptionally nice and friendly.
There’s so much more I want to try– the eggplant parm special, the rest of the side dishes– and it’s affordable enough that I can do this without breaking the bank. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Me ‘N” Mo provided me and a friend with a very pleasant lunch experience last week. The menu is simple. It’s a whole lotta meatballs served a whole lotta ways. Get them with pasta, on bread, or in a Sarcone’s roll. Choose your type (beef, pork, veggie, and a couple other options), your sauce (again, several choices) and the way you want them served.
I opted to keep things traditional and went with the beef meatballs with marinara sauce on a roll with provolone cheese. Extra sauce on the side ’cause I like to get saucy. My sandwich was absolutely delicious and was served with a nice arugula salad alongside. Looking forward to my next visit!

Saw this new place last week, came back tonight with friends to eat. Unanimous thumbs up from all four of us, the food is fantastic.
Simple menu, good prices and good value. I had the Lamb meatballs with an awesome mushroom sauce, perfectly cooked side of roast veggies and a nice glass of red — just the thing on a cold, cold night!
Great, friendly service, rustic Italian décor, full bar with homemade Sangria — I’ll be back!
