Georgia Dariotis, who along with her husband brought the Old Spaghetti Factory to midtown nearly four decades ago, died Friday at her family home in Sacramento. She was 91.

Dariotis was the daughter of Greek immigrants and restaurateurs. Her brother, Guss Dussin, founded the Old Spaghetti Factory restaurant in Portland, Ore., in 1969.
