Area Restaurants with Outdoor Dining
Dining outdoors can be charming and romantic. But now It extends beyond just enjoying dining outside - to focusing on safety and social distancing as well.

Obviously, this list does not include every restaurant with al fresco options, but it offers a range of local restaurants with outdoor seating that goes beyond a narrow side alley or strip-mall sidewalk.
