Let’s taco ‘bout Vagabond! One of Wisconsin’s most unique eateries, it’s like something straight from a foodie’s dream. Specializing in street food, the restaurant serves up some amazing tacos and tortas, among other things. Just as memorable as the grub is the atmosphere, which is touted as a throwback to all things Americana. Take a look:
Opened in December 2014, Vagabond is located in the heart of Milwaukee’s entertainment district. Some may remember the building as Rudy’s Mexican Restaurant, which occupied the space from 2001 – 2014.

Vagabond serves up a Mexican-inspired fare like Rudy’s, but that’s where the similarities between the two end.

Though tortas, burritos, and other small plates are all part of the tasty offering, street tacos are the main focus of the menu and include orizaba brisket, pollo rostizado, and kung pow shrimp options.
