Howling Wolf Taqueria
About
Howling Wolf Taqueria is a Mexican restaurant and cocktail bar in the heart of Salem. Its chef-led kitchen makes traditional dishes such as tacos, burritos and enchiladas fresh, but the restaurant says the bar is what it is famous for. The drinks list includes a wide selection of tequila and mezcal, along with specialty cocktails, margaritas and palomas, so agave spirits get as much attention as the food.
The restaurant’s website retells the Cherokee parable of two wolves, in which a grandfather tells his grandson that of the two wolves fighting inside every person, one evil and one good, the one that wins is the one you feed. The team goes by The Wolfpack, and the restaurant hosts weekly trivia and other events. It welcomes guests stopping in for a quick bite as well as groups planning a night out with friends.
