Portland’s First Weekend Open in Three Months Was a Mixed Bag for Restaurant Owners | Eater Portland

"After holding off for a last-minute delay, Amalfi’s opened its outdoor dining area on Friday under a 23-table tent with a hand-washing station and multiple sanitizer stations, featuring live music from Tahirah Memory, pizzas, and cocktails; by the time it opened there was a line to get in, and the first night more than doubled a typical Friday’s sales — all done outdoors and, in the owner’s words, safely — making the reopening weekend an absolute whirlwind." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
