| - For variety, Pinches Tacos is excellent. The menu is quite extensive, boasting a number of tacos, breakfast items, combo plates, sopes, burritos, tortas, taquitos, flautas, enchiladas, soups and sides. There's also a beverage menu that includes cocktails and agua frescas.
We came by one evening, though it was close to closing time so we decided to come back another day so that we wouldn't impose ourselves on the staff who were likely ready to go home by then.
When we returned two days later, we were excited, as we'd seen all the offerings on the menu. My husband decided to order two fish tacos and one nopal taco. I opted for one fish, one nopal, and one pollo mole. Our order came quickly and looked absolutely delicious.
The reviews here about the fish tacos are not wrong; they were incredibly delicious! Topped with slaw and a slightly spicy red salsa, the taco is flavorful. (In fact, the fish tacos alone sway this from being a 1 star review!) The nopal tacos came topped with cotija cheese, but the filling was cold which I did not expect. The pollo mole taco came topped with a red salsa and cotija cheese. While pretty flavorful, there was something slightly off about the taste.
Then, within 6 hours of eating here, I experienced some of the worst food poisoning I'd had in years. The only thing my husband and I could pinpoint, that we'd eaten different from one another all day, was the pollo mole taco. I was very disappointed, as Pinches was one of the places I'd looked forward to visiting even before we arrived in Las Vegas!
