Absolute top-tier taco spot in Reno! I grabbed 5 tacos, a mix of Pollo, Carne Asada, and Birria and every single one was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The house salsas are already fantastic, but do yourself a favor and check out the hidden salsas in the back. Make sure to ask the staff for the extra spicy one if you like real heat, it delivers! 10/10, will definitely be back. Ambience is a small, hidden gem. It's the place you want to order your street tacos from! read more

The fam suffered from an unyielding hankerin' for tacos and made a bee line for Pinches for the first time: Excellent variety of meat to choose from. The youngest of us ordered the 9 taco platter with assorted meats of asada, carnitas, pastor, and campacheros (asada, chorizo, pastor combo), while I ordered a small handful of campacheros and the missus ordered asada. Drinks included Jarritos Limon, Corona Familiar, and aguafresca. Wonderful service, excellent flavors, fun ambience and we will be back again! The snap is of the young buck posing with his taco platter. read more

Camilla in the front was super helpful and nice. This was our first time here so we had questions. Restaurant was clean and much more spacious than expected. Music was on point. Nothing here is overpriced. Best surprise was the Poke Bowl. Wonton bowls are the best vessels! If you've never had one fresh, this is your chance. The Mac salad looked questionable but it's tasty. I think it's because of the noodle. We expected a macaroni noodle. The Birria was fantastic! read more

Couldn't stop talking about this spot after our first visit. We came back and loved it just as much as the first trip. The burrito was sooo good. It's everything you want a burrito to be. Service was great again. It's such a relaxed vibe in there like you were invited in and it doesn't feel like an awkward business. I wish we lived closer but this place is worth the little drive. read more

Hubby and I had this as a hangover meal this weekend and it was pretty good. It's a bit small in there and they play their music a bit too loud. A few things though: I placed the order online and after ordering it (which was about 15 minutes later) I got to the restaurant and our food still wasn't ready and we had to wait an additional 20-25 minutes until our food was ready, which to me means they never started/got our order. I got the taco combo with asada, pastor and carnitas. The asada and pastor were great but the carnitas was extremely dry. The refried beans I asked for was literally soup. I've never had refried beans look like that or have that type of consistency, it was weird but the flavor was good. Hubby got the carne asada fries and they were pretty good! They used the good fries too not nasty crinkle cut fries. Overall I would give this place another try because the woman who helped me was extremely friendly and even offered for us to take another drink on the house since we had to wait for our food for so long. read more

They share spaces with Maui Jane, but easy to spot from the parking lot, with their pinches sign. Quick service, took my order and seated. Friendly staff. I came by for quick bite after walking around dragon lights. I order the pinches taco with carnitas. The pork is well season and moist and flavorful. read more

My wife and I tried this place for the first time and were seriously impressed. The gentleman working the counter greeted us when we walked in. He was very kind and courteous, exactly the old fashion customer service that used to exist. My wife ordered the taco combo and I had the Kalua pork combo, the food portions were generous and the taste was wonderful. The bathroom was very clean and well stocked. A little disappointed we waited so long to try this place, we will definitely become repeat customers. The salsa was delicious!! read more

Absolutely AMAZING! What a fun and unique restaurant where you can enjoy both incredible Mexican and Hawaiian cuisine! It was our first visit, and we were so impressed. The lady who took our order was incredibly friendly and even let me sample one of the meats because I couldn't decide. We tried six different tacos, and WOW--every single one was absolutely delicious! The fish taco and shrimp taco were hands down the best we've ever had! Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The outstanding customer service made the experience even better. We can't wait to come back and try more! read more

Out shopping and before heading home we decided on lunch. Pinches is in the east side of Clear Acre in the small shopping center. The menu is big, like bigger than the shopping center! Today we chose carnitas and al pastor tacos. Excellent on both counts. Definitely on a short list for a return visit. Quick service plus good food makes for a nice experience on your lunch break. Give Pinches a try asap. read more

Adolfo welcomed us as family and made sure we got tacos to fit our dietary needs. He was so generous and ensured we liked the food we got. Highly recommend this homey taco joint! Thank you! P.S. the food was delicious ;) read more

Service is A+! This place is rocking! They had many large takeout catering style orders and were a little slow getting our food out. The cashier/expeditor/server was awesome. She was very concerned and even brought us a few extra tacos. This is the kind of small business incredible customer service that creates lifelong customers. We will be back! read more

To be fair, I did not try the Mexican food here. I was excited to try a new Island place. I ordered a Hawaiian chicken dish. It was the equivalent of chicken nuggets out of a frozen bag from Walmart, overcooked dry and tasteless with some sweet and sour Bar b Que drizzled on top. I was extremely disappointed. This was more like trailer trash/dumpster dive/accident scene than restaurant food. I don't plan to come back. read more

The place was quiet I went later in the day maybe an hour before closing. The lady at the counter was nice the restaurant was clean. The asada was so seasoned and the burrito was definitely worth the money I ate it for 2 days lol. I will be going back I want to try the Hawaiian food next read more

They have Hawaiian and Mexican food but honestly... I never have any room left after cabesa and tripa tacos. They also give you grilled seranos in the side. It's pure bliss. read more

Great service and great food! The seating area is clean and cool. We will back again very soon.

My taco cravings were intense and I was due for a fix! I left home to seek out a taco spot that I've never been to. I searched a few places and headed towards Oddie. A friend from work raved about a taco joint and I reached out to him, but he didn't get back to me in time. I was enroute towards Clearacre to see what "Pinches Tacos" was all about. Stepped in and I was so hungry that I wanted to try a little of everything. I think I got out of hand ordering. There were a few patrons, but their phone kept ringing and tickets kept printing as I looked over their menu. To-go orders flying out the door. (All good signs for me). Service was phenomenal, the young lady that was at the counter was very busy and still very friendly. I enjoyed my tacos. Their pastor and tripa were my favorites! Asada was a little dry for me, but a little salsa solved that problem. Their tripa is CRISPY and oh so good! They warn that their salsa is "pinche spicy" and their habanero salsa delivers. I'm not embarrassed to admit I may have or not ate most of these tacos. Tacos are my love language. Lol They're extra fuel for my leg day tomorrow. ;) I ordered their melon and tamarindo agua frescas to try and I think I've found my favorite for tamarindo. Melon was good, but sweeter than I like my drinks. They have a smaller dining room for dine in. I enjoyed their art on the walls. It's very colorful and not dull. The tables do need to be a bit of T.L.C. and more frequent wipe downs in between seatings, but we managed. I didn't use their restroom, but knowing they have one is a plus. My taco craving was fulfilled! They have a simple menu and would try their nachos and asada fries! I look forward to coming back for these tacos and next time you're having a taco craving check them out. They offer catering here as well, so inquire within. read more

Amazing food and great service! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made to perfection. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend Pichi Tacos to anyone looking for delicious tacos. I'll definitely be back! read more

Said I'd update if the next time was as good. Well - it was better as you see from the clean plate. Been in Reno almost 10 years and finally found the perfect tacos. No need to search further. The asada and tortillas are cooked just right and the salsas are amazing. Green and red are so tasty and spicy and the 4 oz is the pinchiest hottest most flavorful I've had. Generous portions top it off. If you like, love, or crave tacos you gotta try Pinches. read more

Honest review: I hate giving low reviews, but I was really hoping for a stronger showing than a 2/5. The bathroom was also communicated to be broken when a client asked for a public restroom after ordering food. The feeling of disappointment after you order $40 worth of food for asada fries, tacos, and a quesadilla. Clients are allowed to expect more. Service: 4/5 There were 2 girls working, a cook and a cashier. The service was warm and welcoming, however there was a person who came up and asked about their Hawaiian menu and the girl upfront couldn't answer the question, so it seemed a little confusing to have 2 menu options and not know your menu? As well as recommendations weren't really given when someone else walked in and was confused about both menus and what she'd recommend, but she tried...? As well as a public restroom being broken for your clientele? At least the 2 girls were really nice... Food: 2/5 -Tacos: 3/5 2 of 3 tacos were okay, the Al pastor had good flavor, but all 3 tasted like they used the same oil they fry the Hawaiian food in. These flavors didn't mesh well together, there was a piece of the outer layer of the onion that wasn't edible, and then one taco definitely tasted like it wasn't seasoned correctly? Expected more from this experience. -Asada quesadilla: 1.5/5 Unfortunately, the flavor was lacking that seasoning you expect from carne asada. It tasted very bland, as well as had a lot of greasy flavors from the Hawaiian food they may cook on the same griddle. There were some fresh vegetables in the plate, so points for that! The quesadilla however was missing a lot... no cheese pull, overly greasy, as well as the carne asada lacked flavor unfortunately. -Asada fries 1/5 At least everything was cooked. If you like canned cheese or velvet-a cheese, you may like these.... Like the quesadilla, there was a lot missing... the fries had no salt on them, the vegetables tasted fresh, but was missing a lot of the flavor from the asada which had no flavor from seasoning or spices. I was expecting a cheese pull, but instead was met with pinto beans and sour cream. It felt as if everything was just thrown together and the lack of flavor made it very bland. But it does get a one star for being hot, having some fresh veggies, and being cooked (which is the minimum you can ask for...). I REALLY wanted to come in and report something different for the community than what was reported by other yelpers, however, confirming this information is important to note for others choosing a place to eat, and for dining in or taking out. The ambiance was interesting as it seemed to pick up after I walked in, but people were just as confused about the menu, the bathroom for the one client who probably really needed to go; and the last one who wanted a recommendation that wasn't really given. read more

great food and service! will definitely be coming back in the future. people need to try this place out!

Chilaquiles torta is fire!! I recommend to add an egg and asada, it comes out big but it is really good!

Came here to get some asada tacos. Told the guy I wanted 5 total. I heard him say 4 in Spanish so I reiterated that I wanted 5, and showed him with my hand to be clear. He nodded and said yes, five. Went home, opened it up and there were only 4. The thing that bothers me is that they're pretty small tacos and it's over priced. To charge me for something and not making sure to deliver what was paid for, is not cool! If you order from here, just make sure to open it before you head home. Tacos were mediocre. read more

Authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine! Absolutely love their carne asada tacos as well as their quesadillas! They pair everything with lime, onions, and roasted Serrano peppers every time. Their service/pace is a little slow but their food makes up for it. Their Jamaica is very refreshing and always delivers! One of the top 5 Mexican restaurants in the area for me. read more

Portions are worth the price. Seasoning was done well I had the pastor and the Asada tacos and I would gladly come back. Son had the chilaquiles torta and he said it was amazing as well. read more
