The state periodically updates the Sector Rules for Reopening. For that reason, we suggest you bookmark this page and check back often.
 Recent updates (August 14) to the Restaurant Guide include:

Reopen Rules for Restaurants (capacity limits) – page 7
If a restaurant or food establishment is hosting an event they must follow indoor event rules which are capped at 25 people. Restaurants cannot hold events at 50% capacity.
 Buffets and Self-Serve Stations – page 10
Self-serve beverage stations are allowed but must adhere to the guidelines below. All other self-serve items must remain closed. 
  • Hand sanitizer must be made available next to beverage stations and require customers to use before pouring beverages 
  • Only cello or paper wrapped straws and stirrers are allowed; sweeteners, sugars and creamers must be individual packets
  • Samplings and refills of personal mugs and cups are not allowed; frequent disinfecting of the beverage station must take place, even during busy times
  • Floor markers must be installed to achieve social distancing
Personal Protection for Employees – page 14
Employees that cannot wear a mask due to a medical condition must provide documentation to their employer.
 Personal Protection for Customers – page 14
Businesses have the right to refuse service to an individual who is not wearing a mask.
Please refer to the guide for full explanation of each section. Recent updates are highlighted in red.
For any questions, please email us at info@ctrestaurant.org.
