HomeState

HomeState brings a taste of Texas to the heart of Los Feliz, serving up some of the most authentic Tex-Mex you’ll find anywhere in Los Angeles. This cozy neighborhood spot has earned a devoted following for its handmade flour tortillas and comforting, no-frills approach to breakfast and lunch. With multiple locations now scattered across the city, HomeState has become a go-to destination for anyone craving proper Texan comfort food.

The star of the show here is undoubtedly the breakfast taco lineup. Each one starts with those exceptional homemade flour tortillas, stuffed with combinations like fluffy eggs and slow-cooked brisket, or the classic bacon-potato-cheese trinity. The queso deserves special mention—order it loaded with all the fixings and prepare to understand why Texans are so passionate about this melted cheese masterpiece. The Lonestar Migas offers another hearty option, piling tender brisket over eggs scrambled with crispy corn strips and gooey cheese.

Whether you’re nursing a Saturday morning hangover or simply craving a satisfying mid-morning meal, HomeState delivers exactly what you need. The casual atmosphere welcomes everyone from solo diners to families with dogs in tow, and the outdoor seating makes it perfect for those quintessential LA sunny days. The takeout game here is equally strong for those times you want to bring the Tex-Mex magic home.

Don’t leave without trying the buñuelos in a bag—light, crispy, and dusted with cinnamon sugar, they’re the perfect sweet ending. Just make sure to pace yourself on the queso so you have room left for these airy treats.
