Paganini, the founder and CEO of Back of the House, rarely participates in long-form interviews, making the episode an unusual opportunity to hear directly from the entrepreneur behind some of the Bay Area’s most recognizable and successful restaurant concepts.
Back of the House operates more than 40 restaurants across a diverse portfolio of acclaimed concepts, including Beretta, Super Duper Burgers, The Bird, Delarosa, Lolinda, Wildseed, Starbelly, Flores, A Mano, The Tailor’s Son and Corzetti. Each restaurant is designed to reflect the character of its neighborhood while delivering the consistency, quality and welcoming experience that have become hallmarks of the company.
In the candid, wide-ranging conversation, Paganini discusses the strategy, discipline and instincts required to create restaurants that resonate with their communities and remain relevant in a constantly changing marketplace. He also shares his perspective on identifying promising opportunities, developing distinctive brands, expanding without sacrificing quality and building a hospitality company positioned for long-term success.
