The Tex-Mex bastion of breakfast tacos and queso has landed in Pasadena: HomeState's frozen-cocktail machine is swirling margaritas and spicy palomas, there are freshly made flour and corn tortillas for the local chain's signature tacos, and the Frito pie is plentiful.
The casual, comfortable and family friendly Tex-Mex concept has opened in the former home of Lincoln, complete with patio seating, an open and spacious indoor dining room, and all the touches that make HomeState feel like, well, home, even if you don't hail from Texas.
Settle in at a picnic table amongst the cacti and vintage horse figurines for the same menu you'll find at the Los Feliz, Highland Park, West Adams and Playa Vista locations—which means all-day breakfast tacos, chips and queso, migas, Texas-toast brisket sandwiches and more. There's on-site parking, bar seating that overlooks the busy kitchen, and, of course, ample supply of some of the best tacos in Los Angeles.
