    Calle Entay habanero infused tequila
    Sandra L.

    Beautiful new restaurant in downtown McMinnville. We stopped by on a busy Friday night sat at the bar to try their fabulous craft cocktail menu. We didn't have dinner but we will be back! I had the Hold The Reins - Beefeater, allspice, cardamom, clove honey and lemon. This drink is light and well balanced with subtle hints of spice. This drink is not sweet and perfect for a person whom likes a low sugar drink. My husband had a Cale Entay ~ habanero infused tequila, lime grand marnier and cranberry. This drink is incredible spice and slightly sweet with a little bit of heat. Fun date night spot.

    The food was really good. Great atmosphere and amazing service. Would definitely go back.

    best cadio e pepe bucatina ever!

    WOW on every level! I was visiting from Los Angeles, but if I lived in the area, it would be my regular go-to spot. Pinch is perfect for a romantic dinner all the way to a large dinner party or celebration with friends. Our party of 8 all left feeling we received great value for the price of our dinner. The restaurant has a great vibe to it - super comfortable but still chic atmosphere. I believe locals come back often and it had a very friendly feeling throughout the dining room. And I appreciated that all 8 of us could hear each other at the table so the design was well-planned - and no one was crammed/packed in! The wine list is comprehensive and well thought out - and has something for everyone. We ordered a great champagne and a white burgundy to round out the bottles we brought. They really worked with us crafting a multi-course meal knowing we'd be going through quite a few wines...from bubbles, to whites to reds. And they provided ample stemware. The service was impeccable. Danielle was a delight - so warm and friendly and perfectly professional. She was on top of everything! And we all really appreciated that the owner/chef Paul brought out many of the dishes himself and took the time to explain them. We got to visit with him later in the evening and we all enjoyed our bit of time with him. As for the food, he really has an amazing ability to combine flavors that are a creative and delicious surprise - and enhance all of the other ingredients in each dish. All of us kept commenting on the touch of a little something in a specific dish that really elevated it. And we loved the sharing concept - and there were ample servings of every course. I kept flip-flopping on what was my favorite dish - there were so many amazing surprises in terms of flavors. Starting with the chick pea "fries" - with just that dash of lemon - they were addictive. Among the other courses, the wagyu carpaccio was perfection, and the oysters were perfectly presented. Then the delicious radicchio salad (which is not just an ordinary salad), the tender and perfectly prepared steak, the pesto potatoes, and oh my - that cacio e pepe bucatini...I have craved it every day since I was there. It was the most perfectly textbook al dente prepared pasta and the flavors were outstanding - the best I've ever had. It is clear Paul is working with the very best ingredients. Pinch will be on my list to ALWAYS return when I am in the McMinnville area!

    Food, drinks, appetizer and ambiance - thus place has it all.

I'd never seen tomatoes on a club before but it was good. They had a variety of drinks but we stuck to tea and soda as it was a work day. This looks like a great place for cocktails. Now that I got the bad taste in my mouth from former friends I will definitely be back.

The menu changes daily based on the availability of the fresh ingredients of the season and is written on a chalkboard. We opted for the salmon tartar which was amazing and the beef spare ribs.

The amazing part is how hard Patrick (the owner) and Alice (the bartender) worked to keep us happy and, once seated delivered appetizers and just amazing food, turning it into the most memorable family dinner we've had in some time. Alice makes creative, delicious cocktails and the chalkboard menu is short but amazing. As there were four of us with four entrees that night, we got one of each and shared. This place is amazing! Go out of your way to go there. Thanks to Patrick, Alice and their chef, all who made our evening one to remember for a long time!

We first tried to drop by on Day 1, but the place was so crowded that we couldn't get a table. We made sure to book a reservation and returned for lunch the next day. The ambience here is amazing, and the service was top-notch. Our server was great and took the time to explain the menu details to us. We ordered a bunch of different items, and everything tasted pretty good. The paella was definitely the absolute highlight of the meal! While I wish the vegetables had been roasted just a bit more, the rice itself was extremely flavorful. The sautéed mushrooms and Brussels sprouts were another massive highlight--they are an absolute must-try from the menu. We loved them so much that we actually placed a repeat order for them during our meal! Overall, we had a fantastic time here. Definitely visit this spot when you are in the city!

There's plenty of tables and a long bar with ample seats. The service has been mostly good. The wine list is ample and the cocktail selection is massive. I haven't had a bad drink here. This most recent time, I ordered the 45 minute paella. I don't mind waiting with a glass of wine or cocktail for something that's a treat like paella. Sadly, when it came out it was disappointing. The seafood was cooked well but a little underseasoned. The rice was very bland. I'd chalk it up to someone having a bad night, but this is the second time I ordered the paella and was disappointed. Sad to say, there are enough better restaurants in Mac that I don't think I'll rush back here on my next trip to the area.

The menu is almost completely seafood, save for a few "American" items and the option to have chicken instead of shrimp on a few dishes. My husband had the creamy shrimp pasta and asked them to make sure it was spicy. They definitely delivered. We shared a shrimp cocktail which came out more like a ceviche in texture, but it was still quite good. I had the tuna ceviche and it definitely satisfied the seafood itch. It was a bit basic, flavor wise, but there were plenty of sauces on the table to spice things up. The only negative for me personally is that I wish there were a way to make my own seafood mix for some of the grilled plates. Just about all the mixed grill plates included things I was allergic to. And while I probably could have asked for a mixed seafood plate without those items, it's always nice to see that option on the menu itself.
