Tahoe Joe's (original) (raw)

Tahoe Joe's is a chain of three steakhouse restaurants based in the Central Valley of California. The first restaurant opened in Fresno in 1995 by Dave Fansler with restaurants in Roseville and Folsom opening in 2002 (both since closed). In May 2008, Tahoe Joe's parent company, Buffets, Inc. (now Ovation Brands) was undergoing bankruptcy and tried to sell the Tahoe Joe's chain. The original Tahoe Joe's restaurant in Fresno closed in September 2016.
