When a restaurant commits to serving locally sourced grass-fed beef and everything fried in beef tallow, you know they’re serious about quality.
District Burger has become Broken Arrow’s destination for gourmet craft burgers that support local ranchers and bakeries while delivering flavor bombs that keep the Rose District buzzing. 🍔
This locally-owned burger joint proves that community-driven dining and exceptional food can coexist beautifully in downtown Broken Arrow.
How District Burger won Broken Arrow’s hearts
The journey of District Burger becoming a Rose District favorite began with owner Carlos Lopez’s vision to create something more than just another burger restaurant.
Opening in the famous Rose District, the restaurant immediately distinguished itself by sourcing grass-fed beef from local ranchers and partnering with nearby bakeries for fresh buns — a farm-to-table approach that resonated deeply with Broken Arrow residents.
The commitment to supporting local breweries by offering Oklahoma beers on tap showed that District Burger understood community goes beyond just sourcing ingredients.
What really won hearts was the decision to keep the menu simple and focused, allowing the kitchen to perfect each burger rather than spreading too thin across dozens of mediocre options.
By frying everything in beef tallow instead of conventional oils, District Burger delivered a richer, more authentic flavor that customers could taste in every crispy fry and onion ring.
The financial backing from TEDC Creative Capital helped Carlos Lopez launch his dream of serving delicious, locally sourced burgers, proving that when community organizations support local entrepreneurs, everyone wins.
