Keeping you safe:
Your safety is our top priority at Ono Bowls. Below are our current safety procedures:
-
Our staff constantly disinfects all surfaces, wear gloves and frequently change them, and always wear masks
-
Outdoor seating is open for customers at a minimum six foot distance
-
We currently offer curbside delivery and pickup, as well as online ordering and call to order
-
Our cashiers change gloves between every cash exchange and have a self-using credit card reader
-
We restrict in-store guests to select staff only
-
Our entire staff has practiced isolation since March in our own personal lives in order not to spread it to you
We will continue to do what is best for the world as a whole. We believe social distancing and masks work and we will proudly continue to do both.
