Delux Grill + Sushi

The shopping cart fries are what you’ll most likely remember after eating at Delux, an upscale burger joint in the Biltmore area. They’re called “A La Cart” fries, and they’re served in an actual mini shopping cart overflowing with french or sweet potato fries. But the burger is the real star of the show here. A pioneer in Phoenix’s gourmet burger restaurant game, Delux offers Niman Ranch-sourced meat and was one of the first places in town to offer lettuce wraps instead of a bun (or, in Delux’s case, a demi-baguette). The signature Delux Burger is a half-pound of 100-percent vegetarian-fed beef, augmented by caramelized onions with applewood smoked bacon bits, Gruyere cheese, Maytag blue cheese, and baby arugula. But there’s more to Delux than gourmet burgers. Craft beer, cocktails, and some quite-good sushi round out the Delux Burger experience.
