In late November, Gov. Tim Walz restricted restaurant and bar service to delivery and takeout. That seven-week hiatus ended Monday with certain restrictions, including operating at 50% capacity.
We asked seven Twin Cities chefs and restaurateurs about current conditions in their dining rooms. Whether they ve chosen to reopen or are continuing to evaluate their situation, consensus is that the loosened restrictions are a step in the right direction.
Better than nothing I think the consumer is starved for a little human interaction, and they re chomping at the bit to get out of the house. Our team has been really pushing for it, so this couldn t come fast enough. Fifty percent capacity is suboptimal, but at Benedict s our weekdays are quieter, so it s not really an issue. And it s breakfast, which means those tables turn quicker than at dinner, so from that standpoint, it s not so bad. Something is better than nothing is where I m at.
