Milwalky Taco Opens in Downtown Libertyville

A new taco joint has opened in Libertyville.

Business has been busy at Milwalky Taco since the restaurant opened on Jan. 20 at 605 N. Milwaukee Ave., according to a news release. Chef and owner Lee Kuebler grew up in Gurnee and attended culinary school at Kendall College in downtown Chicago. He also owns Milwalky Trace, which is right next door to the new Milwalky Taco at 603 N. Milwaukee Ave.

Here is more from the press release:

With Milwalky Taco, Kuebler explores his love for the humble taco, loading fresh tortillas with everything from crispy pork belly to slow-braised lamb to grilled beef tongue. Starters and sides include housemade salsas, a seafood cocktail and, of course, warm corn chips. The new restaurant also builds on Milwalky Trace’s signature hand-crafted cocktails. At Milwalky Taco, the bar offers the Blazing Saddle, made with bourbon, cilantro and fresno peppers, as well as the Mezcal Mule, a twist on a classic.
