Another Burlington restaurant has temporarily closed its doors due to coronavirus exposure.
La Tavola Italian Eatery owners Carlo and Cheryl Falcone reported Thursday night (Aug. 13) via Facebook that they had to abruptly close the restaurant Saturday, Aug. 8.
“We were notified of being directly exposed to the coronavirus,” reads the Facebook statement from the Falcones. “Rest assured we have taken all appropriate steps to sanitize and disinfect. This week has given everyone time to get tested and quarantine.”
Cheryl Falcone said anyone who has eaten at La Tavola in the past week shouldn’t have to worry about exposure, relaying the information she received from the Des Moines County Health Department. She did advise that those who have may want to consult their physician for a more informed answer.
The Falcones plans to reopen next week with new safety measures, including mandatory masks for employees and customers.
