" Vagabond is an amazing stop if you are in the Milwaukee area! The taco selection is diverse and quite tasty. I had the pleasure of trying three different kinds, and while they weren’t the most authentic I’ve had, they definitely offered a unique twist. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was buzzing with energy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been wanting to check out Vagabond, and I finally made it! I was a little let down by the authenticity of the Mexican food, but the flavors were still enjoyable. Service was friendly, but it took a while for our food to arrive. Overall, a cool place, but I hope for a more authentic experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lively place with a unique atmosphere that feels young and fresh. We sampled various tacos and while they were intriguing, I wouldn’t consider them truly authentic Mexican. They had a good flavor, though, and our server was attentive. It’s definitely a fun place to hang out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Vagabond stands out in Milwaukee for its eclectic decor and vibrant atmosphere. I visited on taco Tuesday and found the prices quite reasonable. The tacos are small, but they're packed with flavor! My favorites were the jackfruit and al pastor tacos—delicious and unique. Definitely a fun place to enjoy with friends and get some great drinks! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had such a blast at Vagabond! The tacos were so interesting and fun to eat! I fell in love with the spicy pork taco—so much flavor!

" What a fun taco bar! I'm not typically a fan of Mexican food, but Vagabond totally blew my expectations away. The vibe is fun and welcoming, and all of the waitstaff were friendly. Although the tacos are more fusion than traditional, they still had great taste and creativity. I will definitely be returning for another night of fun! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! I went here last weekend and truly enjoyed the eatery's ambiance. It's so unique and fun. I tried the fish and jackfruit tacos, and while they were not traditional, they were creative and well-executed. Service was a bit slow, but the energy of the place more than made up for it.
