State Bird
In The Bold Italic. More on Medium.
By Tamara Palmer
The Progress is a brand new restaurant that debuted last night behind an unmarked door at 1525 Fillmore Street. It is the neighbor to the perpetually popular State Bird Provisions and also its younger but more voluptuous sister, so named because the building was called The Progress Theater when it opened in 1911. While The Progress has been two years in the making, word of this week’s opening was sudden, the local restaurant equivalent of Beyoncé or D’Angelo dropping epic surprise December albums after all of the year’s best-of lists have been written.
