Had a table booked on a Saturday evening at 7pm Orderd Rosè which we couldn't drink as was just a bottle of chemicals the white wine was no better so went for processco ,very nice but only had 1 bottle , on a Saturday night, not good enough.After sharing our disappointment with Sam he managed to find a warm bottle in a back room. They took our plates and told us if we wanted desserts we had to be very quick cos they needed the table , this was 8.10pm .shocking. expressing our disappointment to Sam fell on deaf ears WONT BE GOING BACK

Good steady Mexican food. Feel as though portion sizes have got smaller vs previous times, but that was a while ago (hasn't everything). Service could have been warmer and friendly. Not rude but no small talk or being made to feel particularly welcome. Music was blaring so not easy to chat but that is maybe me getting old... Glad the restaurant is still doing well. Been in Chapel A a long time. Can and probably should improve though.

Easily some of the best food in Leeds....anywhere really. The fish tacos are worthy of a Michelin star in my view as a foodie who has regularly visited starred venues in London over the last couple of decades. Very colourful, buzzy atmosphere, with the food matched by the service.

Nice people and exciting food. This will be a regular visit. We only had some chicken wings and a couple of Burritos which was plenty of food for us two. I was looking forward to trying the Tacos too but we'll save those for the next visit. Others have mentioned the tamarind dip which is certainly worthy of note: hot, sweet and punchy and very very moreish! I must say I was particularly impressed with both the service and the quality of the food. On the face of it this is a simple cuisine but you can taste the care that goes into the prep' and the layers of flavours and ingredients. Food like this is under-rated because it looks simple, but like some many things, when you're really good at something, you make it look easy. This is seriously good food.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience last night - and want to thank the chefs and staff for everything from the sensational food, delicious cocktails (wow), attentive service and for squeezing us in slightly earlier than our planned table time to save us a trip back and forth. Myself and my friend haven’t been to Pinche Pinche for a little while, and based on our experience last night I’m not sure we will go anywhere else for our dinner catch ups in future. I woke up this morning thinking about the food! A massive 5* from me

Really nice little restaurant. The quacamole shared starter was amazing.I had salt fish tacos for my main which was just as good as I had had in other Mexican restaurants. Because we got there before 18:00 on a weekday, we got a good deal on the menu: Each main meal was £10 and came with seasoned fries which were delicious 😋.

Vegan options on offer are fantastic. The execution of food is top notch, visited 3 x in the past 2 wks and they have smashed it out of the ball park on each visit. Consistency of great food is key, service is as important as the food and they've got it right. No gratuity added to the bill is like a breath of fresh air and eliminates the awkwardness some diners may feel if they do not wish to leave a gratuity for whatever reason. Hopefully this encourages pleased and satisfied customers to leave what they feel they wish to leave dependant upon their dining experience. Well done!! 😀

Everything looks great, tastes great, and doesn't cost the earth. Drinks are also very reasonable.

Tried recently in March for a differnt cuisine from our usual outings and it’s fairly local, we love Mexicans at home and Pinche Pinche did not disappoint. The staff were really pleasant and talked to us about dishes as well. We ordered above what we normally would to try a few different things as there was so much on offer. Plenty of vegan options which 1 out of the 2 of us are. All the food was delicious with no complaints at all. When it came to pay there was no discretionary service charge added which seems the norm now (and I don’t mind paying unless execptional circumstances), there was only a prompt to ask which we duly added and paid as it was deserved. We will definitely return at some point!

Really can’t say enough good about Simon, Sam & the staff at Pinche Pinche. We’ve been deprived of legit Mexican food since we moved to the area, and have tried several of the most highly recommended restaurants but just never satisfied until now. We sampled several different tacos, salsas, chips, beans & rice, margaritas and everything was amazingly… even dessert was remarkable!!!! We left 100% satisfied and excited to go back, and will definitely make a booking next time so we don’t risk getting turned away (even though Sam worked some magic to get us in as a walk-in). Thanks team!!!

Awful, just awful! Very confused by the reviews here, worst food I have had in a long time! Collected a takeaway on Sunday evening, 2 x burritos, chicken wings and mexican fries. Burritos tasted overwhelmingly of BBQ sauce and nothing else, dry meat. Chicken wings very dry and the fries were like cardboard. At £25 this wasn't a cheap takeaway and it was a 0/10. Not even close to Mexican cuisine and most went in the bin. Ignore the reviews, save your money and avoid this place! Edit: A "nasty" review is appropriate for a nasty meal.

Amazing food. In your average Mexican diner, the dishes tend to be all the same fillings, with the only differences being how the tortilla is folded around the fillings. At Pinche Pinche, the tastes and textures were varied and very very good. Service was excellent. The icing on the cake was that the piped music was almost unnoticeable - a rare delight in a world of frequent sonic sensory overload. We could concentrate on enjoying the food and each other's company. We will be back!

Really nice food, the burrito was really good. Went on a Saturday night, and it was busy, but it didn't feel too crowded and that noisy. The waiters were good and we didn't have to wait too long for the food. We shared the nachos, guacamole, and chicken wings. They were fresh and really tasty. I had the Birradilla Burrito, it was presented well and the flavours were so good, it tasted really authentic. Overall I would recommend this mexican restaurant, it is definitely the better of the ones I have been to.

I have always loved this restaurant for eat in and take out food. We ordered 2 takeaway burritos last night and although the flavours remain delicious, we were shocked at the reduction in size of the burrito. The complimentary side order of nachos has now stopped too making this takeout the same price as eat in menu and way too expensive. It cost £25 for 2 burritos measuring not much more than 13cm in length.

18.10.2023 at 6.15pm - Booking of 6 I am so disappointed in my experience this evening at Pinche Pinche. I have been there twice before and had very good experiences. From arrival to starter everything went well and staff that attended the table were professional and mannerable. There was a very long wait after our starter to receiving our mains. We noted that other customers that came in after us were being served both starters and mains then leaving before we even received our mains. We were wondering what was happening as we arrived at 6.15pm, and it was now 7.45pm and we were still waiting for our mains. Staff were at the front counter and had not explained what the situation was. Due to the wait we looked across separately towards where the staff were, wondering what was happening. One of my friends on our table caught a member of staff eyes, then she gestured to that member where is our food. This staff member was coming over to find out what we were trying to say, as she approached our table a male staff member came over whom I believe was the manager and aggressively pulled the female staff away so he could deal with the situation instead. He approached my friend that made the gesture with a really bad attitude, and asked in a confrontational attitude 'is there a problem'. We explained that we have been waiting over 45mins for our mains. He said 'well, we only have two chefs'. We then explained that people had come in after us and received their starter and mains and have now left. His response to that was 'well you have had your starter'. Never once did he apologise for our wait. We were left feeling very offended. When our food arrived he came over with our food, trying to be polite but you could sense his hostility. Four of my friends felt he was just throwing our food down on the table but I am not clear about that. I just sensed some hostility. I felt very embarrassed as I have been here twice before and did not have this experience. If I had, I would not have brought anyone there. Another one of my friends spoke with him outside to clear things up. He made matters worse when as he said 'when you all came in the restaurant you were trouble'. When he was asked to explain, he referred to the period of our long wait when we looked across at staff, which he described we were 'scowling’. As a matter of fact, we may have been looking across individually at different times trying to work out why we were waiting so long. Even with my friends guester to say where is our food. His approach was completely unprofessional and quite upsetting as it was clear he was displaying anger towards us. I think he completely misread the situation and came across in an aggressive manner and not to defuse the situation or offer any apology for our wait. It appears, he does not know how to speak with a customer, he argues and escalates situations. Leaving you feeling undervalued as a customer. There was no management skillls present. When my friend said 'we won't be coming back' he responded again infront of customers 'we don't want you back'. Based on his responses, I am not sure if he was aware he should be acting in a professional capacity or if he knows how to. He clearly does not value or treat all customers equally. There were no issues with the other staff members that served us, none whatsoever. To be honest, when he approached us the way he did, I wanted to leave. I did not enjoy my food after that and it was unfair that we should have to eat in such a hostile atmosphere. I am extremely shocked and disappointed. Unfortunately, I have no plans to return and I will be sharing my experience with others. Every customer should be valued and I feel this manager lacks management skills and customer service skills. I am not sure if he has managed before, if he has, it may have been a restaurant of poor standards. I believe Pinche Pinche to be of better standards. He is not mentoring his staff in a positive way. He would benefit from some training in management and customer service care.

I had really high expectations because of the reviews but I have to say I was a bit underwhelmed. The food was relatively tasty and definitely fresh, but nothing incredible. I ordered the vegan “fish” burrito bowl, and I couldn’t eat any of the vegan “fish”. It was made out of aubergine (which I normally love) but the texture was awful and slimy. The mushroom enchilada was similar, very slimy in texture and completely fell apart. I really liked the potato and kimichi small plate, that was my favourite thing we had. My date really enjoyed their beef quesadillas, but also agreed that it didn’t meet expectations.

Fantastic food and a good atmosphere. Would recommend booking for a Saturday as when we went it was full by 7pm. The menu had a lot of choice for gluten and dairy free diners.

Went for a friends birthday on Saturday evening. Table was booked for 7:30 and we was not seated until 8:20. Our food was served at different times, 2 of us ate about 30/40 minutes after everyone else had finished food and one meal was forgotten about and cooked last minute afterwards. The food was not great either. It’s understandable the staff were understaffed and extremely busy but there was no accountability or explanation for the poor service. When the bill came we questioned this, and they knocked four beers on the bill (there was 8 of us).

The restaurant has a really nice relaxed vibe. The drinks area is nice and spacious with a choice of high stools or relaxed tub chairs. The staff are friendly and informative and the food is gorgeous and reasonably priced. First time visiting but will not be the last. Think this place will be a little gem once more people are aware of it.

Jessica was amazing! Really has some great knowledge regarding Mexican beans. Was very impressed. She had lovely green eyes, two of them.
