What happened after Food Paradise?

Taylor Gourmet built its menu around Philadelphia-style hoagies and cheesesteaks, importing Amoroso rolls to replicate the sandwiches its founders grew up eating outside Philadelphia. The shop expanded from a single Washington, D.C. storefront into a small local chain serving the city's downtown and Capitol Hill neighborhoods. According to Yelp, the 1400 K St NW location downtown carried an active listing updated in May 2026, with no closure notice attached, unlike a former Taylor Gourmet address at 1200 19th St NW that Yelp marks permanently closed. Taylor Gourmet's own website, taylorgourmet.com, lists a second active location at 1822 Jefferson Place NW in Dupont Circle, showing weekday hours of 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Together the two listings indicate the chain has narrowed from its earlier footprint to a smaller number of Washington storefronts while continuing to operate downtown.
