Description

Paladin Pie is a Dungeons & Dragons-themed pizzeria in northeast Portland's Concordia neighborhood. Pizza varieties include the Druid (roasted mushrooms, Parmesan cream, mozzarella, basil, and lemon), the Jazz Cabbage (mozzarella, cheddar, bacon, and kimchi), and the Red Dragon (Buffalo chicken with Frank's, chicken, red onion, and house ranch).[1][2]

History

Owner Leo Brill, a former pizza chef at Oven and Shaker, started the business as a backyard pop-up restaurant in the summer of 2020.[3] In January 2022, Bill announced plans to operate the business from a food cart on Alberta Street in northeast Portland.[1][4] The cart opened on March 4, 2022.[5][6]

Brill has donated business proceeds to various nonprofit organizations and other groups, including Don't Shoot PDX, For The Gworls, Minnesota Freedom Fund, the National Black Justice Coalition, and The Okra Project.[7] Flynn McEchron is a business partner.[8]

Reception

Brooke Jackson-Glidden included Paladin Pie in Eater Portland's 2022 overview of "where to eat and drink" on Alberta,[9] as well as a list of Portland's "hottest" new restaurants and food carts, in which she called the Jazz Cabbage a "particular standout".[10] Jackson-Glidden also included the business in a 2023 overview of "exceptional" pizzas in the Portland metropolitan area.[11]
