Taco-Yote

Pizza, Tacos$

From Carlos Melendez, proprietor of Coyote Crossing in Conshohocken, this smaller, bolder, and less expensive taqueria (and pizzeria) is built for takeout and delivery as much as for dine-in. Central to the menu is a custom grill fueled by charcoal and wood, allowing for live-fire cooking. The pizzas are inspired by Mexican street food: tacos al pastor, mole poblano, shrimp, birria (with consommé on the side), and rajas poblanas. Owner Carlos Melendez emphasizes food that travels well, keeping the proteins separate from the dough to avoid things from getting soggy on the way to your house.
