Here's a look inside this reopened Chili's restaurant.
Chili's customers will notice some big changes to the chain's reopened dining rooms, like fewer seats at the bar, crossed-out benches in the lobby and disinfecting stations on unavailable tables.
About 82% of Chili's and its more upscale sister chain Maggiano's Little Italy have welcomed back dine-in customers as of June 9. But the restaurants can't revert to business as usual. Instead, customers must wait in their cars or stand outside the restaurant. They leave their information with Chili's hosts, who send a text when the table is ready.
Some of the closed off tables have been converted to disinfecting stations, with cleaning supplies handy for employees, who have to wipe down high-touch surfaces more frequently due to the virus. When Chili's "took the dining room to the parking lot" — as Roberts described the shift to curbside pick-up — customers who ordered over the telephone paid by sliding their credit cards into the same tablets, which kept Chili's employees from touching them.Brinker International
