HOUSTON – Who is ready for dine-in to come back?

As Texas begins Phase 1 of reopening amid the coronavirus pandemic, many restaurants and businesses are scrambling to figure out how to execute it.

While many restaurants are excited for the reopening, with most saying they “missed their patronage”, others are still skeptical about the 25 percent capacity that Gov. Greg Abbot set in place during Monday’s news conference.
