Chucho’s Red Tacos Coming to Fox Point

Red Tacos

Fox Point is getting a new destination for birria tacos.

The Village of Fox Point has approved plans for Chucho’s Red Tacos to open a restaurant with a drive-through at 310 W. Bradley Road, bringing one of Milwaukee’s best-known birria specialists to the North Shore.

The Fox Point Village Board unanimously approved the restaurant’s conditional-use permit 7–0 on August 18, 2026, following an earlier review by the Plan Commission.

An opening date has not yet been announced.

According to Fox Point’s August 18 Village Board agenda, Chucho’s applied for permission to operate a restaurant with a drive-through at 310 W. Bradley Road.

The Village Board subsequently approved the conditional-use permit unanimously.

That clears an important municipal hurdle for the new restaurant, although there are still plenty of details we don’t know—including an opening date, hours and exactly how the drive-through will operate.

What Is Chucho’s Red Tacos?

If you love birria, there’s a good chance Chucho’s is already on your Milwaukee taco radar.

Chucho’s specializes in slow-cooked birria, particularly the crispy red tacos that are dipped in chile-infused broth before hitting the griddle and then served with consommé for dipping.

The restaurant currently offers both beef and chicken birria, along with quesitacos and other Mexican favorites.

Chucho’s describes itself as family-friendly and also offers catering and private-party options.

You can check the restaurant’s current menu, locations and updates on the official Chucho’s Red Tacos website.

One of Milwaukee’s Standout Birria Stops

Chucho’s already appears prominently in our Complete Guide to Birria Tacos in Greater Milwaukee.

It also landed among our top picks in the North Shore Family Adventures guide to Milwaukee’s best tacos, where we highlighted Chucho’s as one of the metro area’s best destinations for birria.

The restaurant built its following around its signature red tacos and consommé and has expanded its presence around Milwaukee in recent years.

Its main restaurant is located at 4511 S. 6th Street in Milwaukee, and Chucho’s has also operated at venues including Zócalo Food Park and Ope! Brewing Co.

A Fox Point restaurant would give North Shore families a much closer option.

Why the Fox Point Location Is Interesting

The new location could fill a particularly useful niche for families.

First, Fox Point and the surrounding North Shore currently have relatively few restaurants specializing in birria.

Second, the proposed drive-through could make Chucho’s an unusually convenient option for grabbing dinner after school, sports practices or other family activities.

And if you’ve ever tried to manage a restaurant meal with tired kids after a long day, a drive-through serving birria tacos sounds pretty appealing.

Families searching for more casual options can also browse our Best Kid-Friendly Restaurants Across Greater Milwaukee.

Our Milwaukee taco guide already includes North Shore stops ranging from Tacos El Paisa in Whitefish Bay to Boca Rica in Mequon and Café Corazón in Brown Deer.

Adding Chucho’s would bring a restaurant specifically known for birria much farther north.

It also comes after the closure of longtime Fox Point Mexican restaurant José’s Blue Sombrero, making the arrival of another Mexican restaurant particularly notable for the area.

When Will Chucho’s Red Tacos Open in Fox Point?

That’s the big question.

As of now, Chucho’s official website does not list Fox Point among its locations, and the restaurant has not publicly announced an opening date for 310 W. Bradley Road.

The August approval should therefore be viewed as an important step toward opening—not confirmation that the restaurant is ready to begin serving customers.

We’ll be watching for more information about:

  • An official opening date

  • Restaurant hours

  • The Fox Point menu

  • Drive-through service

  • Indoor seating

  • Online ordering

  • Grand-opening specials

Make It Part of a Fox Point Outing

Once Chucho’s opens, it could be an easy food stop before or after exploring Fox Point.

One of our favorite nearby family destinations is Doctor’s Park, where wooded trails descend toward Lake Michigan and Tietjen Beach.

You can find Doctor’s Park and other nearby destinations in our guide to great hikes near Milwaukee’s North Shore.

It’s also included in our 2026 guide to the best beaches in Milwaukee’s North Shore.

Tacos followed by a walk down to Lake Michigan? We can work with that.

We’ll Keep Watching

The important news for now is that Fox Point has approved Chucho’s Red Tacos for 310 W. Bradley Road.

The restaurant still needs to announce its own opening plans, so don’t make the taco run quite yet.

North Shore Family Adventures will update this story when Chucho’s confirms its opening date, hours and additional details.

In the meantime, start planning your order with our Complete Guide to Birria Tacos in Greater Milwaukee and Milwaukee’s Best Tacos guide.
