What is restaurant activity looking like in states that have reopened?

I know most states that have reopened require 50% capacity rules or the like
Are restaurants easily getting half their tables occupied, or is there still lots of organic reticence keeping people away?
Just curious.
I’m hearing conflicting reports. Someone in Georgia saying the restaurants are only 10% occupied?

I, along with most people I know here in Georgia, are still avoiding going out to eat for now. So while I don't know about how it looks in the restaurants, I just want to give some feedback about how things probably haven't really changed that much the past few weeks
eta: Not worth addressing individually, but lol at the comments to people who seem offended that I've continued to be prudent by staying at home and cooking rather going out to eat. I should clarify that my social circle consists of educated, intelligent, and well paid professionals who have all retained their jobs. May be a little different from all the BAWS waiting in line at olive garden for a fancy night out with the ole lady.

25% in metairie from what I can tell. Basically at least 1 table gap in every direction from others.

There’s hundreds of thousands dead in the streets. Mostly from over eating.

Red Lobster had a line out the door in St. Louis the other day

overall decent crowds. i think a lot of places are trying to do patio only if possible.

I've went out to lunch everyday this week so far and every restaurant was full at 25% capacity and their patios were also full

I ate at Waffle House yesterday, and it was glorious.

It's fire marshal 25 or 50% so not based on seating or tables available.

Agreed.

Ours (Kentucky) will be 33% occupation with 100% outdoor seating as of the 22nd. They're also removing some regulations for outdoor seating to allow restaurants to increase their capacity.
That said, I've seen several of the local restaurants report they'll continue with carry out for awhile because they really can't justify opening at 33% (especially if they're in an area with limited outdoor options).
I imagine those that open will be busy enough.

Here? Slammed. Clinton closed off a couple of streets so restaurants could expand with outside tables.

I'm in Oklahoma. We're pretty much open. Restaurants still seem pretty dead. More than 10% though. If I was guessing I'd say about 25%.
Posted on 5/20/20 at 11:03 am to HailHailtoMichigan!
47% of people intend to eat out as soon as they are allowed.

We've gone out 4 times the past 2 weeks. Mexican joint took everyones temp before seating (think 100.4 was the cutoff), otherwise its been somewhat normal.
All restaurant employees are wearing gloves and masks. Seems like there is a difference whether its booth seating or tables on the floor. Consensus is every other table closed off but pretty much every booth with the raised sides are open. It's obviously slow inside, but seems like available tables stay pretty full and take out is still popular.

One strip club in town opened up last week, all the dancers have to wear masks and gloves. If that's your fetish, I guess your in luck

Most here in NE AL are still takeout or delivery only (at least by the looks of the parking lots). Places with patios are doing outdoor seating only. Most of the local places that aren't chains are doing limited seating and you have to make reservations.
