If you’ve dined with us before, you’ve likely seen our head chef, Josh, commanding the expo window with focus and fire. Josh has been with us for just over a year, and in that time, he’s made a powerful impact on every part of the restaurant. He and his crew are the heart and soul of what makes Tinderbox, Tinderbox.

Born and raised right here in Flagstaff, Josh brings a deep understanding of the community, and understands the importance of sourcing local to tell a story in every dish.

Come in and experience the craft, care, and creativity Chef Josh and his team bring to every plate.

Anyone who says you can't find incredible mussels in Flagstaff hasn't tried ours! A crowd favorite and our servers' top recommendation for good reason: PEI mussels steamed in rich Calabrian chili butter with sweet corn, crumbled chorizo, and a cilantro-scallion oil to finish. You'll be thinking about these long after the last bite!

Happy Mother’s Day to these two rockstars! Lisa and Christina have been lighting up our front door with their smiles for years. Lisa just became a great-grandma (yes, great-grandma—and still the quickest with a seating chart!), and Christina is off snuggling her brand new baby. Their kindness, heart, and presence make our front-of-house feel like a home. We love you both and are so lucky to have you!

Flavors of warmth and light — sesame-crusted ahi tuna, steamed quinoa, grilled pineapple, cucumber, watermelon radish, and lime. Coconut ginger whipped cream softens the edges, turning every bite into balance.

A guest favorite for good reason. Our skilled bartender, Barb, puts an elegant twist on a classic PB&J — with peanut-infused Japanese vodka, dessert cognac, fino sherry, honey, lemon, and a finish of raspberry sparkling water. Nostalgic flavors, perfectly refined.

Rooted in tradition, elevated for today. Our Executive Chef Mike’s cherished family Basque cheesecake recipe gets a modern twist from Head Chef Josh—paired with lavender-marinated strawberries, hot honeycomb brittle, and pistachio cream. Sweet, creamy, and just the right amount of crunch.
