Jose Zarate, the owner of La Fuente, a popular Mexican restaurant located at 625 S. 5th St. in Milwaukee’s Latin Quarter, recently purchased the 20,000-square-foot Monreal’s El Matador restaurant building at 9155 W. Bluemound Road, Milwaukee, for $1.29 million. Zarate plans to convert the restaurant to a La Fuente restaurant. It will open in later summer or early fall after an extensive remodeling project.
