SAN DIEGO (KGTV) â Excitement and confusion. Thatâs what many San Diego County restaurant owners felt after hearing the county has suspended enforcement activities on restaurants, for now.
A judgeâs ruling Wednesday allowed two strip clubs to stay open, and in a surprising twist, extended to the restaurant industry, allowing for in-person dining.
While the county sorts out what it will do next, some restaurants are taking the opportunity to reopen for in-person dining, even if itâs short-lived.
âI was thrilled to hear the judgeâs ruling,â said Julian Hakim, co-owner of The Taco Stand. âI wish there was, even now, a little more clarity. We know the county is not going to enforce, but weâre not sure if ABC who holds our alcohol licenses or others choose to keep enforcing.â
