Dining at a Restaurant

Check the restaurant’s website and social media to see if they have updated their information to address any COVID-19 safety guidelines.
Before you go to the restaurant, call and ask if all staff are wearing cloth face coverings while at work.
Wear cloth face coverings when less than 6 feet apart from other people or indoors.
Take precautions – like wearing a cloth face covering as much as possible when not eating and maintaining a proper social distance if you are dining with others who don’t live with you.
Ask about options for self-parking to remove the need for a valet service.
Maintain a social distance of 6 feet or more in any entryway, hallway, or waiting area.
Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds when entering and exiting the restaurant. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
When possible, sit outside at tables spaced at least 6 feet apart from other people.
When possible, choose food and drink options that are not self-serve to limit the use of shared serving utensils, handles, buttons, or touchscreens.
Before using the restroom, make sure there is adequate soap and paper towels or hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol.
