REVIEWS OF J Fargo's Family Dining & Micro Brewery IN Colorado

Annie Curtis

Friendly staff, good food and good prices

bill waltz

Decent restaurant with daily specials. I had chicken and dumplings that were very good, Good looking burgers. I did notcare for their micro brew. Tried the sampler. A little too hoppy for me. Medium priced . Good waitresses.

Ryan Koch

I travel around weekly for work, so I try lots of breweries / dinner spots. This place takes the Cake. Staff is very attentive, beer is detailed and delicious, food is even better. I had the smoked wings. Came with free dipping sauce of your choice (I had the "south Carolina" sauce) as well as ranch. The bill didn't hurt either. Highly recommended.

Katie Tuten

Amazing white chicken chili. Good food

Arnold Levin

The rattlesnake burger was bomb.

Jessie Brown

Hamburgers are big, smoky and delicious! Chili is amazing, salads (even just the side salad) are loaded with veggies - yum! Servers are all nice and attentive, food comes out pretty fast. Very reasonably priced too... will definitely be back

B Green

Excellent food and service. Great atmosphere! 3 choices... bar, restaurant, or patio.

Denise McElwee

Did not enjoy. Waitress and hostesses had bad attitudes. Overheard waitress telling table near us they had to order food now as dinner service was starting. RUDE Acted put out when I requested a straw for my water. Literally flew by table and threw it on table.We had no silverware or napkins and asked for them when our meals were served. Never got any. I ended up looking for a place setting on another table. We shared a napkin, husband had a burger with no onions and onions were on the plate. My side order of guacamole was $1.50 for a thimble size serving. Poor excuse for a brewery. They were out of 2 of the 4 beers they offered in a sampler. They wasted no time bringing the check.

Sylvia Swasey

We ordered hamburgers. It was served by someone else with no catsup or mustard. We asked for some, were told sure, and never saw that server again. Asked someone else, told the same and... nothing. The third time as our original server rushed by I asked for some catsup. The people sitting next to us gave us their bottle! The food was good, but service was lousy. And we got charged extra for gluten free buns. Hate that.

Meghan Johnson

I chose this place because of the great reviews. They must only apply if you're eating in. We got our food to take back to our hotel and we were missing all three kids meals side dishes and desserts, the extra brussel sprouts that were ordered, and the burger to the bacon burger that was ordered! A bun and all the toppings were there, just no burger. The fries were soggy and the kids portions were super tiny. Having no side dishes made for three cranky kiddos. The rest of the food was tasty and the staff was kind. Disappointing to say the least especially because we tipped the to go server 25% just as we would if we were eating in.

Juliana Ott

I enjoyed this place 6 months ago and still enjoy it now. The staff was awesome. Beers arriving before I even needed to ask. Great environment, good with Kids. The Amber Ale is my favorite.

Tavis Fasulo

Great food service was great nice smiling faces

Sydnie Smith

Orders were the right food just had things we asked to leave off in the beginning and had to pick off our plates. Definitely a more mid-western style of food.

Josefine Dreier

Food was really delicious and authentic and the service was awesome as well. Can highly recommend this place.

Sharon Dyer

Great place,,Food was delicious I had the Quesadillas,,the best I have ate my entire life!!

Gloria Slovak

Travelling through area, good service and food. We really enjoyed the green chilie. Leann was a joy to our dining experience.

Koen van Dommelen

Great restaurant with a nice selection of American food. Cool that there is a brewery to.

Amber Clarke

I highly recommend the salmon...hubs says he hasn't had good Texas brisket since he lived in Texas! This was it. Tiffany was an awesome server with tons of experience! She was training another server who was also awesome! Affordable price, delicious food and excellent service! When we're back in Cortez, we'll definitely go back to J Fargo's.

Kelly Gorman

Went for the craft brews, but each tasted like something was completely off. The best thing about the place is its patio.

Sharen Farnsworth

Great food! Great service! They have allergens listed on the kids menu which was so helpful!!!! If passing through Cortez again we would definitely stop here! :)

Darin H

Great food. Awesome staff.

Brent Renaldi

Good food and bangin' happy hour with BOGO beer

Debbie Turner

Pet friendly restaurant. They brought water out for the pups. Very good food. Exceptional burgers made from locally sourced beef with interesting and delicious add ons. Friendly server. FYI: if you come in the patio gate, make sure to check in at the front desk so they know you are there.

Sandi Young

Stopped here after a long day of driving. Waited a few minutes before being seated. Menu was simple and had a variety of items. I had the bbq beef brisket, Carolina style (spicy bbq sauce) with steak fries. The brisket was tender and moist worth ordering. My daughter ordered the avocado salad with blood orange citrus dressing. The salad was well blended, with fresh avocado and the dressing was the perfect amount and served on the side. Both entrees were delicious. Decent servings and filling. I ordered a side of bread and it was actually a small loaf and perfect for sharing. Service was good, our waitress, April was excellent. She kept us updated on our order, checked on us after food came out, and delivered the check right away. I would of loved to have tried a beer sampler but they were out of 2 of the 4 brews. I would recommend this place, good food and great service.

Ray Tay

Awesome as last time.. We always hit J. Fargos when we come thru Cortez, good eats, good peeps.. always take good care of us

Hilary DeVries

Great gluten free selection! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend if you have a gluten restriction and are craving some comfort food.

cecelia cohron

Great little restaurant. We has the onion petal, which was amazing. We also had the ghost burger and bohemian burger with spicy and ranch fries. Both burgers were hand made and were very filling. Will eat here again.

Christine Williams

The food is very good. It's also more creative than your standard American menu. Service was awesome. The atmosphere was wonderful - beautiful family photos instead of the usual junk found it bars.

Lori Leonard

Vegetarian options were great! Staff was super friendly and made us feel welcome. We were just passing through but we made the right dinner choice!

William M Fillpot

The food was spectacular. I absolutely loved everything they served, delicious. We all shared plates so I tried alot of menu items. The service was also outstanding.

Rexlium Dragneel

Good burgers. Very understanding to picky eaters. Nice wait staff. Bathrooms clean. Not too loud. My feet didn't touch the ground sitting in a booth because I'm short.

Carlyn Tracey

My experience was absolutely wonderful. The food came quick and was so flavorful. We couldn't get enough. The staff was sweet and very efficient. Thank you so much for the great dinner!

douglas jones

The 1st thing that just rubbed me wrong. When someone sits in the bar. Their experience isn’t to be in and out. Their there to relax, have a few beers, maybe so food or dinner. Server came to the table promptly after I was seated. Told me about the happy hour special. About the 4 national beers brands they have on tap. I had to ask about the in house beers. My question to management is why aren’t you trying to push the in house micro brews? Isn’t that the whole point you have a bar to have an avenue to sell your products? Then the server just badgered me about ordering food. Within 5 mins of sitting down she asked me 3-4 times about ordering. So I ordered an appetizer and immediately wanted to take my dinner order. I told her I would wait till after my appetizer came to order. After I had ordered dinner. A house salad comes with the entree. She brought the salad to the table and about a minute later she brought my entree. I didn’t even have time to put the dressing on. I told her she could take the salad back and throw it in the trash. To any patron it’s about the experience then the food or maybe beer. That keeps people coming back. If the experience isn’t good your going to have a hard time getting people to come back. My job brings me to Cortez a few times a year. I personally will never set foot in your restaurant ever again.

Dorothy Day

Saw the good reviews and decided to walk across the street to eat instead of getting back in the car. Husband had fish and chips and was happy with his dinner. I had the Southwest salad and it was delicious. But, the best was the peach cobbler! Yum! Service was prompt and friendly. All in all, a good dining experience.

Jennifer Gilmore

We had terrible service, terrible beer and terrible food. I opted to have taco Bell rather than something else from the restaurant. Not a good experience. My husband who loves good beer couldn't even find something he would drink..

Laura Franklin

Very friendly staff! Great supporter of other non profits in the community!

Chameleon Mills

food was good, staff seemed frazzled.

Jess Baidwan

Food good, prices fair, service ok

Sean Killoy

Very good food with Southwest specialties. Decent craft beer.

Michael Kemp

Good not very good. Very over cooked.

Rodney Willbanks

My wife had a southwest salad it was very good.

Rosemma Adams

I have a very complicated diet and the staff worked with me to craft a meal I could eat. They also offer an entirely gluten free menu, including gluten free chicken strips which is a rare find!

Jeff Ryg

Server always forgot something in our group

Gage Johnson

One if the best burgers in town half ground beef half prim cooked perfectly if I say so

James Ray

Food was okay. Service was great. Prices weren't too bad.

Amanda Benson

Mine and my husband's favorite place in town. We always have great service.

Gage Sells

Food was nice kind of expensive though

John Lawrence

Good eats. Good beer, good atmosphere!

Kathy Gagon

Good food, excellent service.

Tiffany Ghere

Friendly and welcoming staff. We had the New York Strip with a Jack Daniels Demi-Glacé and is was the best steak we have had in a long time. Great Vegetarian options for my mother in law who has many restrictions on her diet and they where able to accommodate us with out sacrificing flavor.

Blake Pirslin

Soup was not really that great..the salad was good. The service was good.

Dalton Lucas

Nice menu. Some variations on classic dishes. The wait stuff was short handed the day we were there, but they still did a good job.

Gwen Goldsberry

The food was good! The $2 beer was great!

Leona Groesbeck

Tadty comfort food in a casual atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Good service.

Brytta Fitzgibbons

Friendly people

Vince Adair

Absolutely amazing. The brussel sprouts there are absolutely amazing. The waitress was on point and not much wait time for our food.

Jamie Ford

I absolutely love this place fast friendly service the owners were so friendly the food was delicious gotta try the deep fried pickles they're delicious! Will definitely go back!

Nicole Harper

Great service. Fantastic food for the whole family. Great happy hour specials too!

Steve Reinschmidt

In all fairness, this review is about the beer only. It lists itself as a Micro Brewery. Only 4 of their own beers, I ordered a flight. They gave me 3 saying they were out of one of them. Gave me no discount on the flight even though I only got 3/4. Turns out to be a blessing. The 3 that I sampled were terrible. Couldn't even drink the small samples.

Shane Clarke

Service was as awesome as the food

Tokie Shelton

One prime rib was cooked more than medium rare, but all in all we like the food.

James Ayers

The service was good, but my corned beef was unedable. They promptly gave me a better cut of the corned beef for free but even then it wasn't amazing.

Leah Jackson

Love the atmosphere and the food. Very friendly staff.

Mark Adkins

Great family dining. Good servers and good American food. Get the Santa fe chicken or rattlesnake Jake burger.

mallory panchelli

Fast service and delicious food.

Austin Plitt

My wife and I stayed in Cortez for the night, and after seeing how busy this place was we knew we had to stop. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a smile, and we took a spot at the bar. Ordered two drinks, and they came out perfect. Talking with the staff, we surveyed their menu and we're pleasantly surprised with how rich it was! Everything was made in house, and the staff was knowledgeable and spot on with their suggestions. We ordered the ribs, with the South Carolina sauce and steak fries ( you have to have the house sauce, it's to die for), as well as the Santa Fe grilled chicken. As we ate, we are perfectly attended too and enjoyed and absolutely amazing meal. The ribs were smoked perfectly, and the portions just right. The chicken was freshly grilled and house made pico was to die for! I can definitely recommend this place if you're ever passing through. Amazing food, great drinks, and a hometown atmosphere that just makes it perfect. We look forward to the day we can come back!

Erin Cougill

We had some very delicious food and Bridget our server was excellent. WE had a nice happy hour and then dinner. We were comfortable staying for about an hour and a half. Try the artichoke cheese and bacon dip.

Arron

Several members of my family went there for dinner, the hot wings were still frozen and so were the fries. Because the service is so slow by the time those individuals got their food back most everybody else was done eating.

Daniel Dodson

Slow but the food was good

Landon Clarke

Super impressed with this place. Amazing "Bohemian Burger" and the best sweet potato fries and spicy deep fried pickles I've ever had. Very friendly staff and quick service. Tasty cocktails. And they make all their own sauces in house.

Tiffany Moore

Food is good and service is good sometimes there is a pretty long wait though

Kathy T.

Worst experience we have ever had! We came in for late lunch on july 30th . Our server was wonderful! We ordered food and while we waited a man walked towards the restroom he projectile vomited all over the restaurant!! They didnt even close to make sure it was cleaned! They should have made people leave in case the man had a serious virus or illness! Do not go here!! We left without eating!

Candi Campbell

Love the chicken stuffed burrito with the red chili sauce and chimi style. Is Amazing! The flavors we're perfect! Hubby enjoyed the stout on tap. He thought the south Carolina sauce on his wings were on fire. Best ever. Highly recommend. Staff very friendly.

John Slade

I've been eating at J Fargo's for well over 10 years now. If you are in Cortez, have some time, and are looking for a good burger, I would highly recommend stopping by. Great service, the waiters and waitresses are all very nice. Food is of good quality, and dishes are served with a good variety of flavors that go well together. Beverage selection is very good. Pricing is medium, expect to pay an hour's wage for a full meal. Recently, the restaurant seems to be lacking in staff, placing cook times above average; If you are in a hurry for a bite to eat, you might look elsewhere. If you are prepared to wait slightly longer for a considerably better meal than fast food, this is a great place to spend your allotted lunch.

Industrial Gypsy Services

There are very few places in Cortez to get good food. J. Fargo's is not one of them. Everything we had was saturated with greasy oil, even the vegetables. I tried the coffee Stout and the nut brown ale. They weren't awful, but they certainly weren't great. The Stout tasted more like stale coffee grounds than stout. Note that not a drop of beer is brewed on-site. I'd like to to say the staff was nice, but our server seem angry about something the whole time although not necessarily directed at us. A mediocre experience at best.

Beverly Muir

Went to the DARE fund raiser tonight. Food was excellent as always. Our favorite game warden waited on us. It was fun watching the police&game wardens waiting tables. The food&prices are good&have the best service in town.

Riekelt Romkes

Food is ok at decent price. Nothing special

Autumn McPherson

Wait staff is very nice but the owners/managers are horrible to them, and they do it in front of the customers. Food is fine, nothing special. Their Carolina bbq sauce is god awful and NOT true Carolina bbq sauce. It's brown for God's sake.

Richard Grumm

Okay food. IPA not so much. Nice friendly waitress

Russ Barron

The service is good, and the staff attentive. But skip the micro brew beer. All of it is kind of tasteless, and has a strange, almost astringent quality to it. That being said, the food was delicious. Try the avacado appetizer - the best way I can describe it is "deconstructed guacamole".

Ms. K

Everytime I'm in town I love to stop by and eat their hot wings and bohemian burger are my favorite dishes here! Great local place to eat and staff are great too!

Sandra Lehberger

Although the restaurant had run out of just about everything the food we did get was good the service was very friendly and accommodating and well worth the stop

Susan Didier

Highly recommend. Fabulous beef brisket, flavorful and very tender. My husband said the tacos were the best he has ever had. Service was exceptional. Great deals during happy hour. Prices were very reasonable.

William Halford

Every time I eat here, the food is excellent. Today was no exception, except that I ordered a large bowl of chicken and dumplings ($8), and the supposedly large bowl wasn't large enough to satisfy. I don't mind paying more for more food, but I had to order a second bowl to be satisfied. How about a 50% larger large bowl for 50% more cost? That would have been just right.

Heidi Honea

Burgers were great! Beer reasonable

roy panchelli

great food, friendly servers. get the ranch seasoned fries theyre delicious

Justina Aguirre

Our waitress was extremely friendly. The food was absolutely wonderful. The best experience we had while staying in Cortez. Highly recommend this place.

Alyssa Beck

Good food. I love their steak fries with chili powder and the chicken strips they were crunchy and good.

Fred Smythe

Very poor service. Only two other tables occupied, one person at the bar and could not get our drink order correct. Ordered drinks 2 minutes later waitress forgot what we ordered. We were asked 2 more times. One drink was brought to our table but it was not what we ordered. Finally left without ordering our meal. If after 4 tries they couldn't get drink order right didn't want to see what they would do with food. Used to be a great place to eat but no longer.

Joanna Elmore

Good food friendly service. Stephanie was very helpful

M S

Food wasnt what we expected. The draft we had had a great flavor.

Dale F

Great beef brisket! Great service. Highly recommended.

Ronald Mulvey

Very good food with a unique spin

Kimberly Robbs

Smoked beef ribs are delicious always worth the stop;

Tim Mercer

Ate at j.Fargo's a few nights ago. Our server was awesome. Wish I would have gotten her name. The owners came over and visited with us and were very friendly and welcoming. The food was tasty, hot and very good. My husband had the brisket and Carolina BBQ sauce. I had the chicken fried steak and vegetables. Both were great! The family pictures on the wall made this place feel homey and interesting. We will make sure we return on our next trip.

D Socolov

Very satisfying. The local IPA is very hoppy and flavorful. The Bison burger is delicious. Good service. Would recommend.

Jason Panzarello

Navajo taco wasn’t bad but wasn’t something I would return for, seemed understaffed and I waited the whole meal for a refill and could have ate another meal in the time it took to get a check, pay and get it back. If I could go 2.5 stars I would

Gregory Ausburn

Good food and great service.

Karma Plushie

Best steaks in Cortez!!! Staff is always friendly, good is always slap your momma good! I just wish they had their creamy poblano soup on a regular basis... sad face.

Harold Miller

Great food and service.

Allen Todd

Had dinner and beer. I had the texas Burrito, it was good. The beer was even better. My wife had the Navajo Tacos and she liked them.

Bella B.

I definetly had a good time at J- Fargos and their food was delicious. I definetly recommend having Tiffany as your server.

James Davis

Good food local flavor.

April Goldberg

Excellent food and service! I had the half rotisserie sandwich dinner. It was a very generous portion and came with freshly made mashed potato and white gravy and squash. It was so good I ate the whole thing! The owners came out and personally thanked us for coming in and chatted with us. This restaurant is locally owned and operated and has a very welcoming feel. Great prices and value!

Beau Woodman

I will normally eat here with my family or friends. The wait staff are amazing and even try to entertain you if your order will take a while. The food is great my personal favorite is the Chicken Tenders with fries and a Dr. Pepper.

Patrick Ruth

It is clean and friendly. The food and service are good. The food is traditional American. I am lucky to have been born in my favourite country. The food has pleasant local twists. Like an appetizer that resembles cowboy beans. It was very good but would have been better with scoops rather than chips.

glenn crouse

It was pretty good.

Peggie Duffel

Excellent! Really perfect chicken an dumplings! Pulled pork sanwhich with the perfect tender. Moist pullef pork, we chose the reg barbq sauce and it was just right. Perfectly proportioned on a soft nice bun! Great atmosphere , we sat in a cozy booth in the lounge/bar. Will definately be our go to stop through town when we are in the area!

Marvin Laframboise

Met my long time friend there for lunch. Great food.

Tena May

Its ok at times but if your Native they take there time to serve you or get your order but if you know someone they serve you right away

Chris Smith

It was great service and good hospitality

Bill Horger

I shared a Navajo taco with my wife, and it was very delicious. Others in our party had salads and quesadillas, and enjoyed them also. The staff was attentive and very informative. We will go there again on the next trip.

Craig Turner

Very good food. Dog friendly patio.

David Hager

Wait staff was friendly, but not once asked if my order was alright. The hamburger patty was not only over cooked, but was burned.Sad, but Wendy.’s burger would be a better choice.

John Meyers

Good food fast service

Robert Jacobson

Bison burger oh heck yeah, sweet potatoe fries and ipa's, was amazing

Tesa Thomas

I came here with the group of 8 they were very accommodating and friendly, atmosphere was pleasant and everybody enjoyed their food. Although I would have chosen something different I got the quinoa and vegetable salad it was lacking a bit, great idea but missing some flavor. Overall enjoyable though

Alice Gobbo

The best burger I've ever had! Really recommend it! Lovely staff too.

Jeremy Jessome

Great food and friendly staff! If your looking for something good while your staying in Cortez, stop by and enjoy!

louis martinez

Nice place to eat or just have a drink.. friendly staff and good food.

Clint estremo

Service was great. Very professional and courteous. Food was great. Chicken fried steak was very tasty

Kevin Wagoner

The food and wait staff were really good....will come back

Rob T

It was a nice place. Food was geeat. They got a little busy so the service kindda suffered but still a great spot for a drink and dinner with the family

Larry Baier

Friendly staff, decent food, microbrewed beer was quite good. This place needs to advertise with the local hotels. Definitely worth a visit.

Carl Gray

Quiet and friendly, good food!

Charles Burrier

Fish I had want fully cooked even though the outside was brown.

Ceemika Saucedo

Great food loved the service very clean .

Matt Gambill

The wings were fantastic

Michael C

Very small portions & over priced. To give them the benefit of the doubt, I tried them several times. Everytime it was subpar. If you're from out of state you will be disappointed. Best to avoid

Ila

Good service good food

heyduke john

Good food weak microbrews

Sandy Lake

Little pricey but good food.

Doris Perry

Very nice, clean and friendly. A place to have a nice quiet meal. Cocktails available, Pricing is affordable

Ellen Beitzinger

Not good. Dirty cups and dishes. Food was mediocre with the exception of the spicy, fried pickles. The only concession made when informed and shown the multiple dirty dishes was "we have a new dishwasher". Do not recommend.

Chandra Jenkins

Great food and a great atmosphere. There is something on the menu for pretty much any taste. They even have craft beers. Portion sizes are good. My friend loved their cream soda, too!

Chandler Garcia

Food poisoning at its finest! Ate not even half my meal and had to use there restroom to throw it up! Only heard great things and was super excited to eat here till I arrived. The table we sat at was unstable, all our orders where wrong! Plus all of us got COLD food!!! Go somewhere else you will get treated better!! If a 1/2 star was an option i would have given it!!!

Susan Thomas

Good food. Service friendly
