About Us
Our Story
In 2006, my wife Amanda and I had the idea to open up a small bistro in Central Phoenix. Nearly 15 years later, Fuego evolved into an "In The Know" restaurant here in the Midtown dining scene. In 2020, we got the amazing opportunity to team up with the Clarendon Hotel. This historic property fits in with the unique vibe that Fuego is known for. We are so fortunate for all the support of thousands of patrons over the last decade plus to make us a real local gem. We are also proud of our killer staff that make the restaurant possible. We humbly thank you for coming to Fuego. We are super aware of the hundreds of choices in the Valley for dining and we appreciate that you have selected us. Sit back, have a cocktail, enjoy the live music and, of course, the food!!
