Paragon Restaurant & Bar,[1] or simply Paragon, was a restaurant with two locations in the United States. The San Francisco restaurant closed in 2017, and the Portland, Oregon location closed in 2018.[2] The restaurants were owned by Moana Restaurant Group.[3]
San Francisco
The San Francisco restaurant operated from 1991 to 2017.[4]
Portland, Oregon
The restaurant in northwest Portland's Pearl District began serving brunch in 2012.[5] Chef Lawrence "Rocky" Smith was nominated in Eater Portland's Hottest Chef competition in 2013.[6] Bob Brunner was the restaurant's beverage director, as of 2013.[7]
In 2014, Thrillist's Drew Tyson described the restaurant as a "casually industrial eat/drink spot".[8] The interior featured a fireplace and the menu included a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup.[9][10]
The Star, a pizza restaurant chain, moved into the space after Paragon closed.[11][12]
