After a recommendation from a Downtown Burlington friend about the best pizza in Burlington and 2 months of lockdown, we decided to support a local restaurant. I have been to several other Burlington restaurants over the last year of Covid and had no issues or...concerns. Upon entering the front door and seeing the 2 pizza chefs without a mask I should have taken notice immediately. Even the waiter that seated us wasn't wearing one. I guess I didn't walk out because I thought maybe they had a reason for not wearing one. In all the other dinning experiences I have had over Covid I have never seen a staff member without a mask. After about 40 minutes I started to see and count the other staff members in this small restaurant, 10-12 without masks. Now I started to see an issue. After a rushed meal of a cheese plate and 2 pizzas we left. I decided when I got home to contact the manager about the mask issue. I was told that they had upgraded their air exchange unit and that the bi-law allows for exemptions for masks. I quickly asked that all 10-12 staff members had heath reasons for not wearing a mask? Really didn't get anything other then they were following the bi-law. No questions on my experience or if I was OK with his answer, I hung up the phone. I am now questioning myself as to why I didn't walkout and I truly believe that the reason is that I wasn't expecting any of this in a red zone area under restrictions of only 10 patrons. I did some research on this restaurant and found several other complaints about the patio and no masks. My experience was inside the restaurant which is even worse. I am writing this review so no one else that follows the mask rules has to deal with this establishment. There is no way all 10-12 staff members are exempt from wearing a mask and I do find this to be nothing more then a staff decision to not wear masks at work. After not seeing several family members on a regular basis and my mother for over a year and a half now I have no time for people and the mask issue. I truly can say this was not worth the money and has to be by far the worst dining experience in my lifetime. I will be calling public health. This place needs to be shut down.More
