As someone working in the field of mathematical physics, I believe that for a person with your interests it is somewhat better to be a graduate student in the math department. The reason is while there are quite a few mathematicians which regard physics as an important source of problems and insights, there are far fewer physicists who think that mathematical physics is worth working on. In particular, foundational issues in QFT and strings are not very popular with most physicists.
