Restaurants at 75% Capacity This Weekend

Restaurants can expand their capacity level to 75-percent this weekend.

The expansion of capacity went into effect Friday.

The Texas Department of State Health Services says the 75-percent limit applies to dine-in service, with no limits on outdoor dining.

But the state's social distancing guidelines say tables have to be six-feet apart with no more than ten people at each table, along with other health protocols, so that is going to be logistically difficult.

A representative of the Texas Restaurant Association says it'll be tough for restaurants to observe these rules and still reach 75-percent capacity.
