These Boise-area restaurants are open for seated dining

Restaurants in Idaho were allowed to reopen for sit-down, dine-in service starting Saturday, May 16.

Patrons will find a strange new world of masked employees, socially distanced tables and nonstop disinfecting to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. “Wipe, wipe, wipe, wipe,” said one downtown restaurant owner. “There’s the article headline right there.”

(We were thinking “patios, patios, patios, patios.”)
