About Us - Fuego Comida & Tequila Lounge

Welcome to Fuego

Welcome to Fuego Comida & Tequila Lounge, where the vibrant flavors of coastal Mexico meet the sophistication of fine dining in the heart of Lakewood Ranch, Florida. Established in 2023, our vision is to redefine Mexican cuisine in Southwest Florida, offering an unforgettable sensory experience that celebrates tradition, innovation, and passion.

Our Culinary Philosophy

At Fuego, we draw inspiration from the culinary riches of the Yucatán and Veracruz, blending authentic Mexican ingredients with contemporary flair. Under the guidance of Executive Chef Jason Dame, a 30-year culinary veteran, our menu showcases single-origin heirloom masa from Puebla, Mexico, handcrafted into fresh corn tortillas, and ancient ayocote beans cultivated since 4000 B.C. From our signature Mexico City Garlic Noodles with Dungeness crab to the indulgent 35-ounce Fuego Tomahawk steak, every dish is a testament to quality and creativity.

The Tequila Lounge Experience

Our tequila lounge is a destination in itself, boasting an extensive collection of over 100 fine tequilas and mezcals, including exclusive pours like the Asombroso Collaboration line. Sip on innovative cocktails, such as the Day of the Dead, complete with a dramatic smoke bubble, or enjoy a flight of mimosas or espresso martinis. Our bar, paired with a lively atmosphere, makes Fuego the perfect spot for a memorable date night, a gathering with friends, or a festive celebration.

Vibrant Ambiance

Step into our thoughtfully designed space, where modern elegance meets festive energy. Our covered outdoor patio, equipped with cooling misters, heaters, and a 15-foot fire table, invites you to dine al fresco while enjoying sports on dual TVs. Inside, the lounge area features U-shaped booths, high-top tables, and dynamic artwork displayed on flat-screen TVs, creating a vibrant yet welcoming ambiance. Whether you’re savoring our Sunday brunch with Tres Leche French Toast or indulging in our happy hour specials, every moment at Fuego is crafted to be extraordinary.
