diablo burger is an arizona local foods-based burger joint.
all of our burgers are made from 100% local, grass-fed, open range-raised, antibiotic-free and growth-hormone-free beef from the ranches of the diablo trust, whose award-winning land stewardship produces burgers that allow us to say "this is landscape-scale conservation that you can taste."
we actively partner with local farmers, ranchers, bakers, cheese-makers, brewers, vintners, and other producers to source as much as we possibly can from within a 250-mile radius -- the DB definition of food-shed here in arizona. and while that may sound like we are trying hard to be noble, for us it is really about being tasty. and true to place: we want to enhance the connection between community and ecology through gastronomy -- which is just a fancy word for cheeseburger.

Little America Flagstaff - Relax. Explore. Savor. Gather. It’s in the live-edge Canadian maple furnishings and Irish wool carpets. It’s in the always made-from-scratch meals served fresh.

Whether with the dark skies above, the Ponderosa Pines all around, or the Grand Canyon just down the road.
