Read the passageAs for Tarantino's, documentation proved more elusive. The only definitive reference came from an obituary for the son of a previous owner, which identified the restaurant as "Joe Tarantino's of Tahoe." Gavin forwarded the obituary and contacted both the local historical society and longtime residents in hopes of uncovering additional memories, photographs, or documentation.
Read the passageTarantino's Restaurant (1970s): Angelina initially managed this Italian eatery near Takela. Later, she and John purchased it, with John gaining local renown for his empanadas and ravioli. The restaurant was a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike.
