In 1996, Guy became business partner with Steve Gruber. They opened two restaurants called Johnny Garlic’s an Italian based restaurant and Tex Wasabi’s a Rock N’ Roll Sushi B-B-Q restaurant. Johnny Garlic’s is a dynamic California Pasta Grill that bursts with energy and a diversity of food choices that reflects the personalities of its owners Guy Fieri and Steve Gruber. Started in 1996, Johnny Garlic’s has grown to three locations (Santa Rosa, Windsor and Roseville, California) and showcases the famous Tri Tip Dip sandwich, Fire-Roasted Quesadilla, Cajun Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, The Tortilla Cake, Pesto Goat Cheese Pizza, and the famous Breathe Mint Pie for dessert. While the menu is expansive and ever-evolving, the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and also stimulating with a buzz of camaraderie that creates an almost theatrical experience. Tex Wasabi’s Rock N’ Roll Sushi B-B-Q restaurant is a paradox that works! The food and the zealots who are drawn to the Santa Rosa and Sacramento California locations can be best described as—rebellious! A noisy bar is the pivot around which spins unique cocktails that combine savory with kick-ass sassy, and a menu that includes original sushi (Tootsie Roll, Spyderman Roll, Kemosabe Roll, Jackass Roll) and mouth watering slow roasted B-B-Q (BBQ Brisket Platter, Smoked Pork Ribs, Ribs-N-Chicken, New York Steak with Wasabi Butter).
