I mean, we do now and none of us are vaccinated.

Same. We usually go at 4:30 or 5.
We also know which restaurants have tables appropriately spaced... and which ones are packing people in. Only going to places that space the tables.

Outside for sure, and we're heading into the time of year when we prefer to eat at outside restaurants anyway. We actually ate at a waterfront restaurant last weekend on their deck and it was the first time eating out in months. It was fabulous!

No, but eating out is way low on the list of things I care about and miss. I might feel differently if it was something important to me or my family.

Outdoors yes, but not sure my germaphobic teen would agree to that.

Lots of us who are more cautious aren't only concerned about our own children and/or their potential for severe illness.

Nope. Teen daughter refuses to eat inside until she’s vaccinated. We agree with her.

+1

I’d wait on indoor dining with kids till cases per 100k were below 10. We’re still at 17.


This. Need some sustained low numbers. Of course DH and I aren't vaccinated yet, so it's not an option currently.

Ok, update to previous answer: I won't dine in a restaurant until restaurant staff are vaccinated in my region. I don't think it's fair to them for my unvaccinated kids to potentially infect them. That's in 2 weeks though.
Also, I'll always prefer outdoors for the next few months. But I would eat inside if my DH and I were vaccinated, most waitstaff are vaccinated, and my kids aren't.

For us we will dine outdoors only for now. Which is a step closer to normal that takeout only which is what we had been doing for a long time.
