"I took my wife out for a dinner date for the first time in two years, and I was a bit nervous about it. However, she truly deserved a special night out, and it felt like the right time to go. The staff wore masks and even kindly encouraged us to wear them when moving through the main dining area to the outdoor covered section. It was the first day after the mask mandate was lifted, and it was clear that both our safety and theirs were their top priorities. Once we were outside, there were heat lamps, and the tables were spaced comfortably apart. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, especially considering the ongoing COVID situation. I recognize that not every restaurant can create this kind of atmosphere, but for those that can, it’s worth it. By taking these precautions, businesses can attract patrons like us who are still being cautious."
