Pinches Tacos is a small Los Angeles, California-based chain of taquerias. It was founded in 2007 by Javier Anaya and his brothers and has locations on Sunset Boulevard, Santa Monica and Culver City. Homewood High School graduate Ty Taylor befriended the Anayas in California and made plans to open a location at Hallman Hill, on the corner of Oxmoor Road and 19th Street South in Homewood.

Pinches uses recipes from the Anayas' grandparents and great-grandparents. The name is translated by them as "kitchen boy", referring to an ancestor who cooked for Pancho Villa. The menu features tacos, burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, flautas, sopes, and tortas. Weekend brunches feature huevos rancheros and chilaquiles.
