La Tejana
3211 Mt Pleasant St NW, Washington, DC
Crema's Take
“This DC breakfast destination earned its reputation with handmade tortillas that elevate their tacos and burritos into something genuinely craveable—the kind of thing locals strategically visit on weekday mornings to dodge the weekend crowds. Beyond the stellar savory offerings, La Tejana brings charm to the experience with a upstairs section perfect for lingering over their specialty drinks, though the real star is that chorizo breakfast taco that has fans returning again and again. It's the kind of place that shows up for its community, evident in how staff have gone above and beyond for everything from snow-day weddings to feeding committed regulars who've had it saved for years.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

We tried their breakfast tacos and their drinks in the upstairs section. The drinks were very pretty but just ok, but their breakfast tacos are to die for. Their homemade tortillas paired with all of the different selections they have available for fillings make these a must…
Best breakfast taco in the DMV and crave those handmade tortillas. I sneak in on a weekday morning to avoid the weekend lines. Great selection. I love the one with chorizo but all are great! Staff so friendly!
What better way of spending a Saturday afternoon than getting access to the number one breakfast burrito spot in DC. I’ve heard about La Tejana through different networks on social media. We got there around 11:30am and waited about 45 minutes until we placed our order. The…
