Since restaurants have begun reopening, we’ve had many readers ask about which are requiring their staff to wear masks. We asked y’all in a newsletter last week and on Facebook, Instagram + Twitter to send in restaurants you have noticed have all staff members in masks.

Below we’ve compiled a list of your responses. Did we miss something? Send us an email and let us know.
