Best Flagstaff Pizza
When I walked into Fratelli Pizza, I was feeling brave and a little nervous. It was the first time I’d ventured to any restaurant by myself with my two year old and 8 month old daughters. I couldn’t have picked a better spot. The staff went out of their way to help me and the food was served hot and fast.
I strolled up to the counter holding my eldest’s hand and pushing my youngest in a stroller. We ordered one of their fantastic combos – plenty of food for us to share. For six bucks (including tax) we got an over-sized slice of cheese pizza, a fresh salad with ranch dressing, and a drink. You can also get two slices and a drink for the same price. Either combo can be upgraded to add one of the six beers they have on tap instead of a soda for $1.50 more.

Romantic Restaurant
Josephine’s Modern American Bistro is the kind of restaurant that catches your eye from the moment you drive up. With its dark volcanic rock columns and beautiful, inviting stone patio, it’s a romantic setting anytime of the day. The quaintness increases in the evenings with the twinkling of lights around the historic building. The sense of timelessness is not, however, reflected on the very modern menu, which features bold and flavorful combinations of food to delight both the eye and the stomach. Josephine’s proclaims on their menu to be free of “ethnic constraints.” Instead blending “ingredients and techniques from many different cultures.” This is the type of place you come to have flavors dance through your mouth, popping with originality in their combinations.

Little Mexican Joint
With El Charro, what you see is what you get. It’s a simple, family owned Mexican restaurant without any bells and whistles, but good service and food by people who care about making it. Inside a converted home in the midst of a Flagstaff Neighborhood, this isn’t the place you’re going to see many tourists. What you’ll find instead on most weekday afternoons are NAU employees who took a short walk from their office to grab lunch. That’s when I recommend going to El Charro because their great lunch special makes this place definitely worth trying.

Fav Flag Eatery
Beaver Street Brewery is the kind of place that everyone in town always ends up. It’s got a friendly, warm, and comfortable atmosphere with possibly the friendliest wait staff in town and something even for the picky eaters on the menu. That means all of our friends and family who come to visit leave their vacation with fond memories from Beaver Street. The menu has is upscale bar food with an Arizona twist of flavor, so the choices are anything but ordinary.

Flag's Best Kept Bread Secret
This is one of the best kept secrets in Flagstaff. A tiny little bakery without a sign, Village Baker sits tucked away in the corner of the Green Tree Village Plaza shopping center between the Aveda hair salon and a coffee shop. Even if you have eagle eyes, you still may miss this little spot. It has happened to the best of us, but persevere because the reward is worth it.

Air Service Direct LA to Flagstaff
Horizon Air is beginning twice daily air service from Los Angeles International Airport to Flagstaff beginning June 23, 2008. This is awesome. As a Flagstaff resident I look forward to making a trip to LA quicker and easier. For people in LA and beyond this is an easy connection from an airport with lots of domestic and international connections. Horizon partners with Alaska Airlines and you can book the Horizon connection without any trouble on the Alaska Airlines website.

Flagstaff, Arizona or Salt Lake City
Flagstaff, Arizona? is a compact college town sprinkled with small hotels, lively nightlife and an excellent point of departure for one of the most beautiful, and famous, areas for hiking in the country: the Grand Canyon. With a mix of students, backpackers and locals, the town has a hippie meets honky-tonk vibe.
Although Flagstaff does have a small airport, the nearest city with direct flights to both San Francisco and New York is Phoenix, just over two hours drive away. A slightly shorter distance from Phoenix is Sedona, offering excellent hiking through the red rock region.
A great hotel option in Flagstaff is the Holiday Inn Express Flagstaff (800-533-2754).A runner-up is Salt Lake City, Utah, which is a good base for hiking into the Cedar Mountains, 40 miles away. Michael Benanav explored the Cedar trails in “Ah (New) Wilderness in Utah” , which opened up 100,000 acres of wilderness in 2006.

A great place right inside the heart of flagstaff.
We went up to flagstaff to enjoy the snow for the weekend. When we arrived the staff was friendly and efficient. The rooms were nice and we got ready for dinner. The hotel had a restaurant right there on site and it had delicious food. We then went and did a little bit of shopping ( we got sleds) to prepare for the following day. When we got up the next morning, i asked the front desk where a good place to go sledding would be and she printed out a list of good places. We had a great time. The hotel was nice and the staff was wonderful. I also loved the location. It was close to restaurants, shops, and NAU.

Inexpensive but the price is right
The Pony Soldier is very convenient to the highway. The hotel is inexpensive. The main drawback is the train noise. The hotel is quite near the train tracks and the sound of the train can keep someone awake. Also, the rooms are small. But.. if you are passing through and looking for an inexpensive room, the Pony Soldier delivers.

Beaver Street - a locals favorite.
My favorite things there (besides the great micro-brews) are the mussels in a thai curry sauce (on the appetizer menu, but enough for a meal) and the Salmon BLT. Whenever I go there, I have a hard time deciding between the two. My husband loves the meatloaf sandwich and the stone baked pizzas, they're really good too. They usually have some kind of cobbler type dessert too that is really yummy. In the summer, sit on the patio!
