Monday’s decision to close indoor dining has left a bad taste in the mouths of many restaurateurs and the roughly 1,500 restaurant workers between Aspen and Snowmass Village.
The Pitkin County Board of Health’s unanimously voted Monday to limit restaurants to takeout only starting Sunday and move into Red-level restrictions in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.
