I had an absolutely incredible experience at this place! I can say that I had the best dishes I’ve ever tasted in America. The drinks were amazing! We had the pleasure of sitting at the bar, where Emily crafted the most delightful cocktails for us.

Upscale restaurant that I was able to grab a seat at the small bar as I was solo on this trip. i’d recommend hitting their site for a reservation just to make sure yiu can get in. The staff, food and service were amazing – highlight of the trip. The brie appetizer was great, and the chef complimented an amazing pallete cleanser afterwards. The steelhead trout and blue cornbread main was the star of the meal. Went with the unique dessert option of Pistachio Vanilla Sable to finish off the meal. Overall just a fantastic experience!

Customer service was amazing from the moment we walked in the door. Very intimate setting with great vibes. The food was delicious, but the portion sizes seemed small. Overall great experience.

Amazing food. Just wish the atmosphere was a little more relaxed. When I went the table next to me was being very loud but no one said anything. I highly recommend the filet mignon (rare) it was like heaven.

Absolutely amazing find in Flagstaff. We had the chef’s 5-course meal along with the wine pairing. It was one of the best culinary experiences I’ve had. The food was phenomenal. The wine was perfectly paired. The service was at a level above impeccable. Charlie was our server and he was beyond professional, timely, courteous, and really made our experience a forever memory. Highly recommend and we will absolutely return.

My wife and I went here last night and were incredibly impressed. It was Restaurant Week, but we chose to order from the main menu. We started with the hand pulled mozzarella and the pork belly. The mozzarella was decent, but we wish we would’ve chosen the brie. The pork belly was delicious! The flavors, the textures… It was very well put together.

I was part of a group of five. Everyone raved about the food and the creative drinks. I had the Sweet Jane (2 actually) which is a great NA option. All of us had one selection from the 3 parts of the menu, small plates, appetizers and entrees. I had the baked garlic (excellent), the mussels (wonderful sauce and toasted bread), followed by the best sorbet I have ever had, then the duck breast (amazing). The service was impeccable and the manager came over at least 3 times to make sure we were enjoying our evening. I would rate the food and service as top 5 of any restaurant I have ever been. The next time I am in Flagstaff, Tinderbox Kitchen is first on my list!

Nice modern restaurant where the kitchen seems like it puts in a great effort not only towards the taste and unique nature of the food but the presentation as well. Not too crazy; just right. We went for an anniversary and were comped glasses of champagne; nice touch. Server was very attentive and high effort as well, but could maybe use a little coaching on how many questions (not) to ask about a traveler’s trip to AZ while serving at a fine dining restaurant. Overall, great efforts all around and it shows. Ambiance seems trendy but comfortable.

we had an outstanding dinner and world class service. our bartender was Ganapatiye or “G” for short. He was a G. This was a bartender that mixed cocktails but he was an entertainer as well. Laughs all around all night for us and the bar mates. Thanks G and thanks Tinderbox. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!
