Hannah was exceptional we are new to low sodium diet and she went out of her way to help us with a n excellent attitude. Made us feel welcome and wanted. We are from Flagstaff and we will be back! Food and wine fantastic!, atmosphere way above par! THANK YOU HANNAH read more

I totally can not wait to come back. There is so much to choose from it's overwhelming. The bourbon tenderloins, hands down the best thing we had today. I could just eat 3 orders of that. Hubs got the prime rib bleu cheese sandwich which was so good. The flavors are very well balanced. I ordered their "special for the day" a Buffalo chicken sandwich- so it was good, don't get me wrong, but probably on the "worst chicken sandwiches" list. It was like 2 chicken tenders on bread. Like why did I go with their special with such a large amazing menu???? The carrot cake is so good, HUGE too read more

Food, service, and ambiance are all very, very good. Great selection on their menu and whatever you select will be presented very tastefully and professionally. We had lunch and will return the next time we are going thru Payson, AZ. read more

Do not have people seated for 15 minutes and counting without taking even a drink order. I have been here 15 times in the last year and Service was never this bad. read more

Great Lunch , Dinner As Amazing as Lunch Love The Outdoor Patio, Great Staff Very Helpful & Curtious

I must say we really enjoyed our meal here service was good even though we came in late and they were closing at 45 minutes. They did not make us feel rushed. Food was delicious. Drinks were great as well. We sat outside underneath the heaters. We were very comfortable Clean and nice place. Great for a date or just meet up with some friends. read more

This was the worst steakhouse experience I've had. The only reason I rated them 2 stars was for the friendly efficient wait staff. We ordered the 10oz top sirloin which had been sliced in half horizontally making it a whole 1/4" thick. It was atrocious. I ordered my steak Medium rare and got something south of well done. Don't waste your time or money here it is not worth it. They are trying to save money by cutting portions and quality. There are way better steak house restaurants near by. read more

Great service and great food. We sat outside on a Saturday night and the atmosphere was lively, but not too loud or busy. Everyone at my table got the prime rib and it was phenomenal! 10/10 recommend!!! read more

Had a really nice lunch today. Sat at the bar and had a wonderful cover with Diane the bartender. Food was excellent! 5 star

Came here after a long day off-roading with my family. There was a 45 minute wait for inside seating but we were able to seat immediately outside. I had a glass of moscato which was very sweet and tasty. All of us ordered prime rib. The prime rib on the children's menu is incredibly priced for the portion you receive. Unfortunately my husband's dinner was brought out cold and our server did not come check on us until i had finished mine. We ended up just asking for a box to give to our dog. Thankfully management did take off my husbands dinner from the bill. All in all service 6/10. food 8/10. prices 8/10. drinks 8/10. ambiance 8/10 read more

We enjoyed our dinner here. The service was great, we got in and seated quickly and the food was great! From the salads to the steaks and chicken, all was very good. We will go back. Love the patio but we dined inside as it was a bit hot. read more

We were really disappointed with our experience here, especially after seeing so many similar reviews. The food quality was far below expectations for a steakhouse. I ordered a filet mignon medium, and my husband ordered a ribeye medium as well. His ribeye was extremely thin (about half an inch), had a ground-chuck texture, and was not enjoyable at all. My filet came out rare, and when we asked for it to be cooked a bit longer to reach medium, it was returned well done and jerky-like. The vegetables were watery, the shoestring fries were overly greasy, and the steaks lacked seasoning. Ironically, the best parts of the meal were the bread, salad, and soup....which shouldn't be the highlight at a steakhouse. Unfortunately, we won't be returning. read more

My friend and I ate lunch at Fargos today. Sam waited on us. He was very attentive. Food was great. Met up with some friends too.

Great service, awesome outdoor patio dining with plenty of space and they welcome your four legged babies. We had the special Boss Burger and Ruben sandwich absolutely flavorful and satisfying. Definitely have to stop in if traveling through Payson read more

This place needs to get their sh*t together. Called 30 minutes ahead of getting there and the female at the hostess stand said she didn't have me on the list. Was stated there was a 30 minute wait. Checked in after 40 and the irritated individual said another hour. I've never been here before and unfortunately won't be back. Funny thing is I have to give this facility a star that isn't even deserved. read more

Fargo's is one of our favorite restaurants when visiting Payson. They have a fantastic menu and everything we order is outstanding! They also have a beautiful patio and a wonderful dinning room. The servers are always friendly and helpful. read more

This place is amazing! Got their Ahi sashimi and bacon cheeseburger.Food was excellent and service was amazing. Highly recommend!

I had heard such good things about this restaurant. Our waitress was MIA most of the meal. We ordered stuffed mushrooms that were not that great and the cheese was not really melted on the top. When we got our prime rib we realized after it was delivered we realized they didn't put any horseradish on the platters. We waited to eat for about 5 minutes to see if we could seek out our server.. we never did so we asked another server for help. When they brought the horseradish they only brought one for one of us. Again, didn't see our server for quite some time to be able to order another drink. I would like to say it was just an off day and I would try it again in the future one more time. read more

Beware when buying their cake anymore, you get half the size of the slice they used to give you and charge you just as much or more. Never buying their slices of cake anymore, for over 21.00 you can buy one heck of a whole cake!! Very disappointed in Fargos, makes you wonder where else they are cutting corners!!!!! read more

Met a friend for lunch as I was passing through. Omg it's so good. I had the meatloaf which fed me twice. The restaurant is comfortable and super clean. The service was great and the food amazing. I'd go back in a heart beat read more

Andrew was our waiter and was the coolest! Our food came out fast and we had 4-5 courses. They really build up your appetite. The bang bang shrimp was nothing like I ever tasted before. Very delicious and they give you a good portion to share. I shared with about 6 people. I enjoyed the salad I just wish it was on a bigger plate so I can toss it without struggling. Garlic mash was delicious they whip these bad boys into shape pun intended. Every plate comes with a butternut squash noodles, they are OK, nothing too crazy. Interesting choice. The filet was a fine piece of meat and the blackened salmon was delicious. Ask for lemon wedges as it only comes with the one sliced lemon for decoration . The dinner rolls were fresh and soft. They have a great menu and a $4.55 mini cookie skillet. Choice of white chocolate macadamia nut, Chocolate chunk, salted caramel. Literally the top three best. read more

Such a great place. Just next door to us. Had amazing appetizers. Oysters and shrimp. Steak and prime rib. The food was all amazing. The staff was very friendly and made sure we were spoiled for our special occasion. They only have happy hour in the bar area ?? Not sure why restaurants do that. Prices were very affordable read more

New Years Day dinner on our way through Payson was nice! The wait wasn't too long, especially since we chose to sit at the bar and watch the end of the Rose Bowl. There was some nice quiet music playing in the background and the bartender was beautiful. The bartender was attentive and got us our drinks and food in a timely manner. We chose to eat the Fettuccini Alfredo with a side of Beef Vegetable soup, and the BLT salad along with a glass of Rose and the Crème Brûlée for dessert. All of the food was good. Nothing spectacular, but all good and all delivered without a long wait. Everyone from the hostess to the other diners were friendly and nice. Parking was great because we had a trailer and there was parking for us around the back of the lot. I'd go back if we were ever in town again. read more

Favorite place when in Payson. Menu and food is excellent. Always amazing customer service and beautiful restaurant, patio. read more

The scallops were extremely salty. Garlic mashed potatoes had very little garlic if any. I hate it when you go to a high end restaurant spend all that $$$. Knowing I could have cooked it better at home. Very disappointed!! read more

Fargo's is absolutely awesome. Great food. Excellent service. And I'll let you know if it gets better when I actually go there and finally eat something instead of my normal takeout. Ha ha. Seriously though, the takeout's been amazing. So I'm sure the indoor dining is gonna be even better. read more

We came here one the way home from pinetop to Phoenix and had a wonderful lunch! The service was quick, food delicious, and it was great to catch up with family that lives in the area. We had our kiddos with us and they offered a great kids menu, too. We started with the bang bang shrimp and they were so addicting! YUM. They have loads of sandwich options on their menu, but I went with the reuben and it was exactly what I was craving. I would highly recommend this spot if you're in Payson and looking for an upscale place to dine. We will be back! read more

I have driven by Fargos for years on my way up to cabin but never stopped. This time I decided to stop for luncso glad I did. I started with a small salad and that was so refreshing.

Every part of our experience was absolutely memorable!!! The service, drinks, appetizers and prime rib was delicious.

I had Fargo's steakhouse for the first time today for lunch. A colleague paid for it, so it was a free meal.. but I just have to say.. I wouldn't eat here on purpose with my own money. When my coworker tried to order when they opened, the hostess Lauren turned her away and said they were too slammed to take her order. I called back 5 minutes later, and I asked to place an order and got the same girl and I heard a little scoff and she placed me on hold for a decent amount of time. When I went to pick up the food 20 minutes later, I expected a full house in there but there was only a few tables to wait on so that made me raise an eyebrow. I picked up our food and got back to work with it and our order was wrong. They didn't put the ranch that was paid for and we were given the wrong sides in the bag. I went back to pick up the items and when I walked in, I wasn't greeted or acknowledged. I stood there until Lauren came out with a very small container of fries and two sides of ranch. She did say she was sorry, and asked if I wanted a bag for the items. I took them and said no thanks, and left... I'd have offered a customer something for the trouble of having to make a trip back, but maybe that's just me. What I ordered was already SUPER cold when I got to eat it, and it was just okay. Nothing to write home about! I won't be back unless it's being paid for again. read more

By far, the best steakhouse in town. Their chef's specials never disappoint & they carry an exceptional assortment of wine. Summer months can be crowded, but the patio is usually open to compensate for the additional diners. Love the split plate option! For $7, any entree (including the chef's special) may be split & additional sides are added. It's a great way to enjoy a high quality dining experience in this economy! 5 Stars, across the board! read more

Definitely a great steakhouse. The staff was on point and the food totally amazing. We had several dishes the steaks the fish the appetizers salad all first rate! read more

First time at Fargo's Steakhouse. We came from Phoenix for a day trip to Pine and Payson. We arrived at 5 PM on a May Saturday night and there was a 10 min wait. It actually only took 5 mins. As we were seated, we were given menus and our server, Aiden, followed right behind. He took our drink order and then gave us time to peruse the menu. There were several gluten free options, which helped. After a few, we ordered. My wife got the 12 oz ribeye, adding shrimp. It also came with vegetables, salad and a side. She added a glass of Chardonnay, while I got the featured dinner which was a NY strip. It too came with veg, a side and salad, plus two crab cakes on top of the steak. I added an iced tea. In all it came to $107.99 plus tip. Our dinner arrived in about 15 mins, just after we finished our salad. Her steak looked really good. It was also 12 oz and was cooked to her liking. My steak was a perfect medium rare and the pillowy crab cakes on top were just the right accompaniment. Whatever sauce was on the steak was to die for. They could've put it on a shoe and it would've tasted awesome. I wish I'd taken pics, because the plates were thoughtfully crafted, but I was too hungry. We will be returning to Fargo's Steakhouse. We had a quality meal, great service and for a good price. read more

Fargo's is the closest thing to fine dining within a 50 mile radius of Payson. The people are really friendly and the facility is comfortable. We like to sit on the bar side where all the fun is. There are a couple TV's if you want to watch the big game. The bar selection is a bit short of what you would expect at a fine dining restaurant. There is not a great selection of top shelf brands, but the old standbys are there. My Rob Roy was disappointingly made with cherry juice and was poured directly into the glass without proper dilution. My wife's hot cocoa was well presented and executed. There is an extensive martini menu that I would like to try. Our food was excellent. We were dining in the early afternoon and ordered from the lunch menu. I had a great western burger with shoestring fries. The big burger was seasoned and cooked to the right temp. My wife enjoyed a green chile grilled chicken sandwich with onion rings. The chicken was juicy and the green chile was properly roasted and peeled. Delicious! Fargo's is really good and we recommend it highly. Like a lot of established places, they need a bar program makeover to get to the next level. read more

Outstanding food (5 stars), good service (4 stars), but freezing (0 to 1 star). Had to be in the low 60's. Not sure if their heater was out of service or just turned way down. We kept our parkas on, but our feet, ankles, legs and laps were nearly frozen. My wife was actually shivering. We almost changed our orders to Go. Most of the other people there were also wearing their coats and clearly uncomfortable. Were they just saving money or keeping the kitchen cool? We asked about it on the way out and the hostess said she agreed with us that it was freezing but didn't offer to correct the temperature. read more

While visiting friends in Payson we decided to try Fargo's Steak House they recommended it saying it's the best restaurant in the area. We must have been there during an off day. We arrived after lunch (around 2) so it wasn't busy. Our waitress (no I don't remember her name) was less than pleasant & kinda rude, especially when we inquired about their bread (hubby has a dairy allergy) she rudely stated "all bread" has milk I informed her she was incorrect & asked her to check with the chef. After bringing our drinks she returned to the table stating as she said the bread had milk like she said. We (hubby/i) ordered the plain chicken wings & the others in our group ordered open face prime rib sandwiches. The chicken wings were overcooked making them dry & chewy. Sadly they were just ok. The sandwiches were just ok, not up to their previous experiences at the restaurant per our friends. No, we didn't address the food issues, mainly because of the earlier experience with our waitress. The restaurant atmosphere was nice, we had our lunch out on the patio enjoying the beautiful weather. read more
