A list of the Best Restaurants in Flagstaff without Diablo Burger would be incomplete.  

The restaurant has been dominating the “best burger” scene since its doors opened in 2009. The menu boasts 11 combos, with the “Señor Smoke” proving a crowd favorite — topped with ancho grilled onions, grilled avocado, bacon, cilantro, and sriracha mayo. 

If you’re feeling like a burger architect, you’ve also got the choice to BYOB (build your own burger) from an array of ingredients, including beets, chimichurri, and coffee barbecue sauce. 

Owner Derrick Widmark’s passion extends beyond the kitchen as he sources his grass-fed beef from Diablo Trust, a conservation collaborative formed by two local ranching families. His approach is proof that quality and care can really take something to the next level. 

While you’re there, don’t sleep on their fries and DB Special Sauce. You’ve been warned.

The food menu offers quite the journey, too, making it one of Flagstaff’s best restaurants. It features a build-your-own meat and cheese board, a rotating selection of oysters on the half shell, and creative bites like ricotta gnudi. Leave room for the ice cream spiked with Pedro Ximenez sherry — it’s a real treat.

Since its grand opening in 2010, Lumberyard has become a Flagstaff institution, located just south of the railroad tracks on San Francisco Street. The rehabilitated Copeland Lumberyard building has served as a gateway to the Southside community, inviting locals and tourists alike to gather for beer, food, and fun times for over a decade now.

The restaurant’s slogan is “the house that chilaquiles built,” and upon the first bite, we believed it.

Expect a short wait on weekends. You’ll be stoked that you did. 

The stories of how some Flagstaff restaurants came to be, never cease to amaze. And what could be a better example of this than Pizzicletta?

And nothing about his Neapolitan-style pies is average — not the chewy fermented crust or the nontraditional toppings. 

The menu also offers housemade gelato along with solid beer and wine lists. 

Nestled in a historic building on iconic Route 66, Proper Meats + Provisions isn’t just a gem, it’s an experience.
