Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Nice place, classy/casual, amazing steaks, mine in the picture was butterflied (cut in half thickness wize) to make it well done. ( I learned this word today from Kendra, our sweet waitress who made the visit even better.), Salmon was great also, tasty soup, and crab stuffed mushrooms."
"My husband and I came up to Payson from the Valley to spend the holiday week in the mountains. We wanted a good meal and decided on Fargo's Steakhouse. We were not disappointed. Upon entering, it was much nicer than anticipated. Beautiful ambiance, lit fireplace, and decorated for Christmas. We decided to try the crab stuffed mushrooms for our appetizer, and a glass of their Caymus wine. This was a perfect combination to start off our meal. The mushrooms were piping hot and cooked just right. For dinner, I decided to try the chef's special, crab stuffed shrimp, while my husband settled on the prime rib. My crab was perfectly seasoned while the shrimp was cooked to perfection, not rubbery. The side of winter squash was the decision of the chef's while my decision of garlic mashed potatoes rounded out my plate just right. Our dinner was unforgettable! I know my husband felt the same about his meal because when I looked over, he was chewing with his eyes closed in perfect bliss, savoring every bite of his prime rib. Even though we were pleasantly full, we decided on a piece of their chocolate cake to take with us. But we HAD to try it before we left with another shared glass of wine. Another perfect combo. Covered in chocolate ganache, this cake was delicious! Half of it is in the refrigerator waiting now for my coffee to brew! (Another good combo!) Our server's recommendations and timing were superb. Her attention to us was enough for our needs, but never interrupting our conversation. Thank you Fargo's, for an evening to remember. We WILL be back!!"
"I stop at this place every so often when I'm in Payson and I keep returning for the great dishes they serve. I've tried a variety of dishes including salads, steaks, pasta dishes and sandwiches. I particularly enjoy their coconut crusted salmon in a spinach salad . I've always had a quality dish here. The ambience of the restaurant is rustic with a touch of elegance. They have a full bar, outdoor seating, and take out. The service is great and the staff is very attentive. I might add, I've stopped for their lunch menu as well and they have a great selection of lunch items - I was able to get a hearty coconut crusted salmon spinach salad for a great price. Overall the blend of a good looking restaurant, clean establishment, great service, and delicious dishes keep me coming back. Highly recommend you give try them out for yourself."
"Fine dining, good service. Was in a party of 6. We had the coconut shrimp and the calamari sticks as appetizers, both were excellent. I had the seared scallops and shrimp. Perfect search, most delicious! My wife had the pork oso bucco served on a bed of mashed potatoes. Huge portion was still great the next day."
"We stopped by this lovely restaurant by chance, and the welcome was so warm! The terrace was great, and the food was absolutely delicious. But most of all, we had a wonderful chat with a kind waiter who sweetly offered us a delicious cake for our honeymoon. Your thoughtfulness truly touched us. We’ll be happy to come back your way again ! Thank you so much for your warm hospitality! Sending lots of love from France!"
"Absolute perfection start to finish. Welcomed at the door and offered a variety of seating options. Kendra was expert and friendly. Hannah's raspberry lemon drop can't be beat. Kitchen accommodation of preparing veggies non dairy was above and beyond. And the prime rib, DELICIOUS. Cooked perfectly, seasoned aggressively (as it should be) tender and juicy. I'll be back."
"this place was great, very friendly staff , very accommodating, i ordered a 12oz ribeye M/R the seasoning and char on the outside of the steak was very delicious, definitely would come again"
"For Payson, this is one of the best restaurants you’ll find in this town. It’s been around forever and they have really solid choices. I typically get a steak because it’s a steakhouse. It’s fairly priced and good service. It’s our usual go to when we come through town."
