San Diego COVID Restaurant Rules: Is Indoor/Outdoor Dining Allowed?

Things have been all over the place in San Diego. In mid-December, a San Diego Superior Court judge exempted all businesses with restaurant service from California's regional COVID-19 stay-at-home order; an appeals court blocked the order just a few days later, keeping Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home edict in full effect. Fast-forward to mid-January and the county is facing thousands of complaints from the public as well as cease and desist orders being sent to businesses who refuse to comply. To help you stay on top of the latest, the information below reflects the current dining guidelines from city officials.
