Sweet Lorraine’s Jewish Deli, a beloved delicatessen in Portland, Oregon, has closed its doors for good. The closure marks the end of an era for the iconic restaurant, which has been serving up traditional Jewish dishes for over 30 years.

According to a statement released by the owners, the decision to close was a difficult one, but ultimately necessary due to financial struggles exacerbated by the ongoing pandemic. The news has left many loyal customers saddened, as Sweet Lorraine’s was not just a place to eat, but a gathering spot for the local Jewish community.

Over the years, Sweet Lorraine’s had garnered a reputation for its delicious matzah ball soup, pastrami sandwiches, and fresh-baked challah bread. The deli was also known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, with friendly staff who treated customers like family.

As word of the closure spreads, many are mourning the loss of a cherished establishment that held a special place in their hearts. While Sweet Lorraine’s may be gone, its legacy will live on in the memories of those who were lucky enough to enjoy a meal within its walls.
