SHERMAN OAKS A Sherman Oaks restaurant owner whose viral video showed a film production’s dining area operating next to the patio she was forced to close sued California officials in federal court Sunday aiming to overturn the outdoor dining ban part of state orders meant to curb COVID-19 transmission.
Like many restaurants in Los Angeles County, Pineapple Hill Saloon and Grill in Sherman Oaks modified dining operations multiple times this year to comply with public health guidelines.
State officials have forced restaurants and other dining establishments to close entirely at times when COVID-19 was widespread. Restaurants in parts of the state may have been allowed to partially reopen later only to then be limited again to takeout or delivery when their regional hospital capacity triggered new restrictions.
