    Carne asada  5/24/26
    Marcia R.

    We stopped to charge outside is more than 25 chargers So been lunch time and we hadn't eaten so let try this taco shop We walked up to the door and noticed a sign Restrooms for customers only Okay Well we go inside to order And it's clean and busy But no welcoming Are came out fairly quick you see a man cooking It smelled good We received our 3 tacos A lot of meat of my carne asada I made two tacos Her tacos looked good but I didn't want to take bite I wasn't feeling like pork Al pastor 2 tacos The owner was not friendly at all I could hear asking if customers if they ate here... To use his restrooms When I asked for a key he said a lady had it And he said has clean restrooms After I asked if I could these photos Very helpful He's a small business own But if he was maybe a little nicer with people coming to charge and there a gas station here and this Mis Pinchis Tacos here. Maybe they would want to buy more food

    "Birria Taco"

    Ordered Birria taco, it had zero stew sauce and no pan fry. Asked the cashier for an actual Birria taco. He smiled, and laughed, then kept saying it is a Birria taco, even after I pulled up the photo on the self help kiosk which is a actual photo of a Birria taco where the tortilla is dipped in red stew sauce and fried to be crisp! They also have a B and the bathroom violates the Geneva convention.

    Permanently closed?!?! As of 4/8/26, 1:40pm, this restaurant was definitely OPEN! Good thing we didn't eat here. :-/ It's in front of the Tesla charging station so we thought it would be ok to use the restroom and stay inside in the AC, while charging. They require you to buy something to use the restroom. That's fair, except that their soda can is $3.00 each. When you probably can buy a six-pack around that price. Oh well. Bathroom was clean.

    Three tacos. One Carne Asada, one Al Pastor and one Carnitas.

    These tacos were huge and delicious. A lot of meat compared to some other Taqueria's.

    The B health grade sign

    Do not eat here if you're charging your Tesla. The customer service was extremely disappointing. Before I could even use the restroom, I was told I had to purchase something first. It was frustrating because it should have been obvious that my entire family and I were there intending to eat. A little common sense and courtesy would have gone a long way. I was already willing to overlook the restaurant's B health grade and give this place a chance, but after the poor customer service we received, that turned out to be a mistake. Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience, and I won't be returning. Do your family a favor and don't come to eat here.

    Phenomenal and huge quesadilla!!! Nice stop on the way to Vegas. Great salsa. Quick service.

    Al pastor and asada

    Have been stopping here otw to Vegas. The Al pastor is actually very fresh and juicy. Love the char on it. They also have a self-served sauce bar with yummy salsa, lemon, cucumbers, radishes, jalapeños. All their 3 salsas very good !

    We were greeted right away and the gentleman took our order. Pinches Tacos never misses. Stopped by and ordered the super nachos and they were loaded to the max -- perfectly seasoned carne asada, crispy chicken strips, and the unexpected but amazing addition of tater tots that took it to another level. Everything was fresh, hot, and full of flavor, with generous portions that definitely hit the spot. Service was smooth and the vibe was chill. If you're looking for comfort food with bold flavors, this place is a must. Will definitely be back.

    First time visiting while traveling with my family and stopping for a quick bite. I appreciated the sign stating that restrooms are for customers only, especially since the Shell gas station across the street had public restrooms with a long line. However, the customer service was disappointing. While I was placing my order, the cashier stopped assisting me to help another customer with a receipt issue. I did not like this, as it was my turn and my order should have been completed first. He also began handing out other ready orders, which is understandable, but a simple "sorry, please wait" would have made a difference. There was also no greeting. I'm giving three stars mainly due to poor customer service. On a positive note, they did have utensils and a salsa bar, which was nice. We ordered a corn cup and a chicken taco. The food was decent, but the prices felt high--over $4 for one taco with less chicken, and over $5 for the corn cup, with very little cheese added.I don't mind paying since it's middle of highway BUT should've added More chicken and more cheese to the food.

    Carne Asada burrito
    Loc L.

    Best Mexican food for a rest stop. I got a huge carne asada burrito. Some people might say it's pricey but after a few hours of driving, you'll be craving this. The service was like any other normal taco shop. Great rest stop all around, especially if you drive a Tesla. A lot of Tesla charging stations and next to a Shell for gas vehicles.

    Great quality, great quantity, great value. This Mexican food spot is located just past Barstow on the 15 making it an awesome restaurant stop. Stopped here to just take a breather and stretch but my girlfriend and I ended up stopping inside the shop and bought a few tacos since we were going to use the restroom. Honestly I didn't expect much considering it's a shop located in the middle of "nowhere" with no competition around but I was massively surprised by how delicious the tacos were. The price was similar to what many of the taco stands in my area are charging and they offer a larger selection of meat with awesome amenities. The tripe here was other-worldly. They also had a birria taco which was also quite delicious. The staff there was primarily Spanish-speaking but was able to communicate with us with serviceable English so I didn't feel like any of my needs weren't met. Their restaurant is also extremely clean and they have a very clean restroom also. Super cute and cozy spot for a pit stop. You won't be disappointed by the food here.

    There's a lot of fast food chains along Hwy 15. Why settle for Taco Bell or Del Taco when you can try something different? This taco joint caught my eye with the sombrero & eye patch-wearing skeleton head signage. Every exterior window had mouth-watering pictures of tacos and burritos. It was over 100 degrees today. The air conditioner was broke inside. That didn't stop me from ordering 3 tacos: al pastor, chicken, and carnitas. Service was a bit slow during lunch time. Their tacos are pricier, but tasted much better than the usual fast food versions.

    What are the real hours of operation? Stopped by at 11AM and it was closed.

    Honestly, I would say from Noon till 5p.m. for sure. I get the feeling they are busy on Friday-Sunday, but Monday thru Thursday is a coin toss.…

We still had about 200 miles to go, and all that was left in the car was coconut water and a few pretzels--not exactly a satisfying meal! I opened Yelp to see what Barstow had to offer, and Chelas Y Carnitas immediately caught my eye. I'm so glad we made the stop. The food was incredibly fresh and tasted like it was made from scratch--which I believe it was. Every bite of our wet, chicken burrito and steak burrito with everything in it, was delicious. Although it's a true hole-in-the-wall spot, that's part of its charm. The service was warm and welcoming, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the food exceeded our expectations. This place is an absolute gem, and it has officially become a must-stop whenever I'm traveling between Southern California and Las Vegas. Highly recommend!
