We generally update you on seasonally scheduled closings a bit closer to the peak hurricane season months. In light of the reopening of St. John to tourism, and A LOT of variations as to what business owners are deciding to do, we thought this might be a good time to clue you in as to what your restaurant options are this month!
We are excited to say that MANY of your favorite restaurants are bouncing back immediately! The majority are operating with full service and full menus seven days a week. Some, however, are sticking to take-out for now while others are postponing the announcement of a reopening date until we see how this goes. This list was updated as of June 1st, but be sure to check their websites or social media pages for updates as we move through this next transition together!
Also, please keep in mind when visiting your favorite Love City establishments that all businesses are required to follow current VI Social Distancing protocol. Jenn posted a great recap on the overall rules for the territory last week. We are currently in Phase Blue – Open Doors.
![The Restaurant Report - What’s Open? What’s Not? 2](https://newsofstjohn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/phase-blue-1-348x450.jpg)
To recap the restaurant and bar specific rules:
- Establishments may operate at 50% capacity or 50 people. Whichever is less.
- All employees are required to wear masks. Patrons may be required at the discretion of the business owner….All other commercial entities are on a strict “No mask, No service.” policy. (Stores, taxis, the passenger ferry, etc.)
- All tables and bar stools will be separated by the staff according to social distancing measures.
- No parties larger than 6 people will be permitted to sit together.

Please be patient with restaurant owners and staff with these regulations in mind. They are in jeopardy of losing their business license if they are non-compliant.

As we mentioned above, things are changing daily. If you have information on any establishments that you do not see listed above or corrections to the ones you do, please email us or post it in the comments!
Thanks for the update; we are coming July 3rd 🙂
Is the restaurant Da Livio still in St. John?
No it is not. That space is now Dave & Jerry’s Island Steakhouse
Thank you for letting me know! That was our favorite place to eat. I will have to find another 🙂
Thank you!
Any news about Miss Lucy’s?
Tentative plan to re-open mid-June.
DaLivio’s was sold and that location is now Dave and Jerry’s Steakhouse. Livio Leoni recently opened DaLivio’s in Fort Lauderdale and we are looking forward to going there in a few weeks.
Thank you! We will stop by in FL!
how about the Pink Corner in coral bay?
Is the new place on Lovango open?
Zozo’s H20 was previously on Lovango but announced recently that they are closed and not re-opening in that location. There has been no announcement as to what the developers of the resort have planned there.
