Gustavo Martinez and his brothers are local restaurateurs, and will soon open their newest venture, TLAHCO Mexican Grill, in Santa Rosa.
Martinez moved from Mexico to Lake Tahoe in 1996, where he worked as the head chef at Hiro Sushi restaurant in Kings Beach for 14 years. In pursuit of his dreams of restaurant ownership, Martinez sold his truck, many possessions, and his land in Mexico to open his first restaurant, Paradise Sushi in Petaluma. Today his restaurant group has grown to three Paradise Sushi venues and one Paradise Sushi + Hibachi restaurant in Santa Rosa.
“My brothers and I look forward to bringing the genuine taste of Mexico to diners at TLAHCO,” said Gustavo Martinez. “This restaurant is the realization of a longtime dream for us,” he added.
