Good morning Toros. The County Health Officer for the Los Angeles Department of Public Health strongly recommends that operators reserve and prioritize indoor seating and services for patrons who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

Starting Monday, November 8th, 2021, Campus Dining will verify the full vaccination status of all patrons dining at the sports lounge. If patrons cannot show proof of full vaccination, a negative Covid-19 test result within 72 hours will be requested instead. Dining employees will cross check proof of vaccination or negative COVID test results against a photo I.D. Upon entering the lounge.

DH Sports ordering for takeout is encouraged and outdoor seating in the Palm Courtyard is strongly recommended.

Mobile and online ordering can be placed via the ChowNow app.

During this transition, we will be surveying operations to see what can be improved in all aspects of customer service and procedures. If you have any questions, comments, feedbacks, or suggestions, please let us know!

Thank you for your cooperation.
