Pinchos Restaurant & Pizzeria

Don't be fooled by Pincho's small size restaurant. A proud member of Orakei's community for over 15 years, this little eatery has one hell of a soul.

Indeed, you can hear all their comings and goings throughout the summer months due to their streetside patio being one of the busiest in the area. Indeed, it's always alive with diners enjoying the warmer weather whilst inside, guests can enjoy live music and entertainment with loved ones. Not a destination primed for quiet suppers, this is where diners are enlivened by Pinchos' buzz and lust for life.

They're primarily a tapas bar but have made their name through their signature pizzas. Boasting flavour combinations you won't find elsewhere, they're named after the streets that make up Orakei. Take the Ngaiwi, for instance, that is topped with spinach, red onion and feta cheese whilst the Fenton calls roast beef, capsicum and fiery jalapeños its immediate companions. You also have delicious toppings like prawn cutlets, salmon and cream cheese, tuna and Iberico ham.

If you fancy something lighter, you can always opt for a small portion of fish and chips, Pinchos' signature salads or a collection of dumplings that can be fried or served in a delectable broth. Whilst you're at it, add some arancini balls, spring rolls and tacos of the week. Just like the restaurant itself, these small plates speak nothing of the mighty soul within.
