After months of takeout, some Seattle restaurants have officially reopened their doors for patio seating and the occasional dine-in experience.

But as King County moved into Phase 1.5, some restaurants have decided to hold off on reopening.

Who has reopened? Who hasn't? Are they operating at the same hours? Can I make a reservation?

Before you head out the door to nab a much-needed happy hour, scroll down for answers to these popular questions and a list of Seattle restaurants that have officially reopened and their adjusted hours of operation. Just remember to keep your party to no larger than five people, as this is the dining rule in Phase 1.5.
