We offer seasonal, ingredient driven cuisine, with an ever-changing menu that reflects the seasons. Hand crafted food is matched with a curated beverage program centered on a award winning natural wine list. The word "Pago" is derived from the Castilian Spanish word for a single vineyard or small farm. With less than a dozen tables tucked into the small dining area, and a extra half-dozen tables on the patio during warmer months, dining at Pago feels both urban and intimate. Located in the Woodman Building (built in 1910), in the charming 9th and 9th neighborhood, Pago is just minutes away from downtown Salt Lake City. Farmto TableWe believe the closer we are to the farm, the fresher the food, so weserve quality and organic products from local farms and local artisans. This means menus and specials that change with the seasons, featuring the best items we can find at any time of the year. "Farm to Table" is a trendy concept these days, with many restaurants claiming to use farm to table and local ingredients. We try to uphold this concept fully -- meaning we do not simply source a handful of items from a local (or semi-local) producer when it's convenient, we aim for every item on our menu to be locally sourced, and often when the item is no longer available or in-season, we simply change our menu to offer something else that is. We purchase great local products from local farms and producers, like Beehive Cheese, Clifford Family Farms, Fog River Seafood, Keep it Real Farms, Sweet Valley Organics, and Wasatch Meats. See our full list of partners here.Modern + rustic designNestled into a small space in the 9th and 9th mixed residential and retail neighborhood, Pago’s rustic + modern design reflects old world history with an updated touch.Pago used green-building techniques and recycled or original materials during the construction process, including original distressed brickwork throughout, a reclaimed wood (from Lehi Hospital) feature wall and tables with reclaimed industrial steel and eco-resin accents, "paper stone" (made from recycled office paper) counter tops on the bar, counter, and restrooms, and water wise toilets. The custom booths, shelving and metal work were crafted by the talented Clint Knecht of Blackridge Metal, who also managed the construction process from beginning to end.Part of our vision when we created Pago, was to create a business that proactively reduces waste and minimizes the impact on the environment, while staying connected to our community. Our ongoing paper products and glass recycling efforts, use of eco-friendly take away containers, and many community involvement activities are small ways that we practice this philosophy, and we look for ways to continue to expand in this area.

He worked his way up through many chain restaurants, and then landed a job with local Florida restaurant,Food Glorious Food, where he was mentored by the chef and learned to prepare creative, seasonal, American fine-dining cuisine.

He spent the past ten years in restaurant management, at establishments ranging from neighborhood cafes to five diamond hotel restaurants.

He also developed a passion and commitment to finding the freshest, locally sourced ingredients possible and adapting the menu to highlight the best of each season.Before launching Pago in 2009, he spent 2.5 years as General Manager and Beverage Director for Squatters Pub Brewery. Prior to that time, he was the General Manager of The Depot, Food and Beverage Manager of the Glitretind and Troll Hallen Lounge at Stein Eriksen Lodge, Food and Beverage Manager of The Garden Cafe and Gibson Girl Lounge at the Grand America Hotel, and manager at both Sage's Cafe and Park Ivy.Scott has a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Master of Business Administration degrees from Westminster College. Artisans and PartnersWe are grateful for the local artisans that have supported us through this journey that we embarked on several years ago. From a dream to reality, we have learned much in this first year. It is always a challenge to create a menu centered on local and seasonal ingredients. Often the moment we print a menu, the availability changes. So,we are still learning to write menus with flexibility and do our best to communicate to our guests the daily changes to our menu. Without the amazing products from year-round artisans,we would not make it through the winter season each year. During peak season, the deliveries from four to five farms fill the chef's counter early every morning. We cannot image a year without all the farmers and artisans that allow us to share what they do with our guests.We sincerely thank you all – farmers, artisans and the community –for your support.Artisans:A PrioriAmour SpreadsBeehive Cheese Co.Caputo'sClifford Family FarmFog River SeafoodFrog Bench FarmsParker Farms ProducePierre Country BakeryRuth Lewandowski WineStone Ground BakerySweet Valley OrganicsWasatch MeatsPartners:Local First UtahSlow Food UtahDowntown Salt Lake City HotelsAmerican Farm to Table9th 9th Business DistrictSalt Lake Area Restaurant Association Subscribe Sign up with your email address to receive news and updates from Pago Finca!
