Restaurants throughout the South Bay accommodate diners while also meeting LA County Health Department mandates for controlling the spread of the coronavirus. Along with cooking and serving take-out, restaurants can serve customers outdoors and and also indoors at reduced capacity with as much air ventilation as possible. Tables must be spaced eight feet apart and groups are restricted to a maximum of six people from the same household. For the most current information, refer to the restaurants' websites and social media spaces, as changes are expected.Â
LA County allows bars and breweries that don't serve food to serve groups up to six people, outdoors with tables spaced eight feet apart. Patrons must wear masks when possible and vacate their tables after 90 minutes. Counter seating and live entertainment remain prohibited. As of May 4 â following a transition from the state's Orange to Yellow tier for COVID management â it is anticipated that all bars in LA County will be allowed to serve indoors with limits on capacity.
