Boom! The food and staff were great!! The patio is such a great addition to the boulevard. I went with co workers and we each got two tacos and shared a large queso. The ingredients were fresh and had great flavor. The queso was rad. Their iced teas were refreshing and they offer free refills. We also took two tacos back for another coworker, who has a gluten allergy, and they were really helpful with that! The food is really satisfying and filling, I didn't eat dinner that night. For 8 tacos, 1 large queso and 1 drink the bill was $60. Reasonable by today's standards. Next time I'm working from the office, I'll definitely stop in.

I am so happy that Home State in now in the Valley!Best breakfast tacos EVER. Try the Trinity (egg, potato, bacon, cheddar), try the Blanco (egg white, mushroom, and cheese), try the Pecos (eggs and brisket).For lunch, DO NOT MISS the Frito Pie!!!Always be sure to check out their Band Tacos. I currently love the Fort Worth taco: spicy achiote chicken, crispy bacon, lettuce, pico de gallo, pickled jalapeños, tomatillo ranch.The Tijuana Panther is also fantastic: shredded brisket, queso, potatoes, pico de galloI am sad that they took away their Bunuelos except for special occasions. Maybe HomeState will bring them back if I beg them. Pleeeeeeeeeaasssse bring them back!The vibe here is always happy and fast. Good eats and good times at HomeState, authentic Tex-Mex!

My first time here. Go up to the counter, order your food, take a number, find a seat. We tried a nice variety of tacos, including the Tijuana Panthers, Ft. Worth, The Brisket and the Picadillo, all with there special flour tortillas. We also had the Cowboy Cup with charriso and beans. Everything was flavorful and tasty. HomeState has a good product and the service was friendly and helpful. Ok, I get it HomeState.

I recently tried HomeState for the first time, and this is my 9th year living in LA! The long lines definitely were one of the reasons I didn't want to come here, but I can see what the hype is about. The location in sherman oaks a bit more relax and I love all of the outdoor seating they offer. I ended up ordering chips and guacamole with potato tacos, I did also order one of the Chicano batman (soydillo) tacos. I wasnt a huge fan of soydillo but I think it's because I've just been eating less processed vegetarian options. The potato tacos and chips and guacamole were super yummy! Overall I would definitely come back but it would be more of a once a month event.

Went on a whim and was such a happy surprise. They have a tiny lot with about 4 spots in the back. A little on the pricey side (each taco was about $5-$6) but I think the taste makes it worth it. The chicken was my favorite since it had a nice sauce and the cabbage gave it a crunch. The regular brisket was a bit dry so I added a lot of salsa to make up for it. Sat outside around 1 pm and just had a nice vibe with the food. Service was very nice and quick with cleaning the tables. Would recommend.

Guadalupe Breakfast Taco - eggs, chorizo, cheddar cheese / 5!Pecos Breakfast Taco - eggs, brisket / 5!Ft. Worth Breakfast Taco - spicy achiote chicken, bacon, lettuce, pico de gallo, pickled jalapeños, tomatillo ranch / 5!HomeState is a Californian fast casual restaurant that is expanding to more locations throughout Los Angeles and California. I actually live very close to their original LA location but if I am close to one of their other spots, I love to stop by, check out the space, and enjoy some delicious breakfast and regular tacos.My pet's vet is a short walk from the Ventura Blvd location so I stopped by recently. The first thing I wanted to mention is that this HomeState location has one of the nicest outdoor patios I have ever personally been to. The communal dining picnic tables and aesthetics helps create a warm, welcoming place to enjoy a meal.The staff at every single location I've been to are always very friendly and attentive. This location was no different. Everyone I met was kind and friendly. The decor is energetic and distinct.But the main star of the HomeState show is the food. They have aTexMex menu with lots of items but I can never seem to stray from the taco menu, and usually breakfast tacos no matter the time of day. They have their own hand-made flour tortillas that are incredible and then they fill them with generous, tasty combinations. The gold star goes to the always excellent brisket taco. But all three I had were excellent. One thing I really like is how fluffy and fresh their eggs are. There are also some house made salsas to go with the food, both are excellent.It looked like there was a small parking lot connected to the location. I walked over from the vet. But this area of Ventura Blvd is not hard to find street parking.

Alright, let's get down to why the Sherman Oaks Homestate is the best of them all. This is crew of people who genuinely care about you as a customer, but more importantly, genuinely care about each other. The team here create an atmosphere that doesn't feel that dissimilar to a neighborhood block party or family reunion. The chefs here are consistent and always connecting with their guests, even if it's just a smile. This wonderful team creates an experience that is just as delicious as their breakfast tacos. Trinity on flour no cheese is my go-to and just about everyone at that register knows it. I'd like to do some special shout-outs to the people at this restaurant who have really made this place my local hang. Claire - incredibly attentive to guests and can multitask like nobody's business. Davey and Jeffrey are the kings of the floor. I guarantee if you sit on the patio during lunch you will be so charmed by their personality and readiness to help. Ben is one of the most professional and hard working people that I have ever seen in this calibre of "fresh casual". Jenny, Miles and Stephen are faces that always brighten my day. This place is 10/10. The happy hour margaritas are also very prime. Thank you all for being a wonderful place to spend an hour or two at any time of the day.

It was our first time here and WOW! Rey was so attentive and kind. Can't remember the last time I've had such great service like that. He helped us find a table when he saw us waiting at the counter. He made sure that we liked everything we ordered. He even brought over a cookie for us to try. Thank you to Rey and the rest of the staff for such a great experience! We'll definitely be back!
