Lone Star is the collaboration of the shared and individual experiences of owners Aaron Sanders and Max Toste, who spent much of their early years in Texas and Southern California, respectively. The flavors found on our menu are both familiar and robust, inspired by the open air markets and taquerías of Austin, Dallas, Los Angeles, Oaxaca and Mexico City. At Lone Star our focus is on mezcal, tequila, and Mexican street food. We utilize fresh ingredients prepared in a variety of ways to produce a complexity within simple fare. This being said, the true purpose of Lone Star was to create a fun and relaxing environment where we and all of our friends would want to hang out.
Hip, wood-paneled cantina serving modern Mexican street food plus mezcals & many tequilas.

Reviews
Got some tacos, grilled street corn, and French toast. I only tried the French toast, which was just okay, but I was craving French toast at the time and was excited to find a place that still served it at night. I wouldn’t get it again if I weren’t craving. I also got the oaxacan dead drink, which was stronger than most places and more drink than ice, which I appreciated.
Why are we over it? Because food is not just food. Cuisine carries memory, history, and survival. When white-owned restaurants Americanize Mexican food, they profit off centuries of culture while real Mexican-owned businesses are pushed out, underfunded, or ignored. It’s not just about taste, it’s about erasure. These restaurants often sanitize what makes the food powerful: the spice, the regional variety, the family traditions behind every recipe. Instead, we get “Instagram-ready” portions at double the price, detached from the communities that created them. We are over white people owning overpriced, Americanized Mexican restaurants because it reinforces a cycle: culture is extracted, polished for mainstream palates, and sold back at a premium, while the original storytellers are sidelined. Food should honor the people and history it comes from, not just the wallets of those who rebrand it.
If you really love Mexican food, support Mexican-owned restaurants. They carry the flavor, the history, and the heart that can’t be faked or franchised.
Great reply from owner, NOT. They will let the kitchen know, know what? To keep up the “good work” and not provide value. The tip was another $19 (it’s Christmas season, which the management doesn’t seem to get)
