COVID-19 MESSAGE

At Baxter’s Lakeside Grille, the safety and health of our guests has always been a top priority. We have been proactively monitoring the impact of the coronavirus and implementing measures to protect the health and safety of our guests and staff, as well as the local community that we serve.

We assure you that we are carefully following the guidelines and directives from the CDC and industry experts. As always, we hold ourselves to strict standard operating procedures regarding cleanliness and have implemented increased protocols for disinfecting, cleaning and germ prevention.

We will continue to educate our staff on preventative measures as updates are made available by the CDC, Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Missouri Restaurant Association and The National Restaurant Association regarding food, food handling, and safety.

We promise to deliver the following procedures to ensure the safety of our guests and team members:

• All tables and seating will strictly adhere to the social distance protocol of 6 feet minimum.
• Due to space limitations, seating will be limited at peak times.
• After full capacity is reached, all waiting for seating will be done either outside or in your personal vehicle.
• Single-use menus will be used.
• All items will be removed from tabletops, except silverware rolled in a napkin for single use.
• Enhanced protocols for disinfecting of frequently touched surfaces.
• Staff use of masks as deemed necessary for safety.
• All team members will be temperature tested upon reporting to work.
• Any team member not feeling well will be required to seek testing for COVID-19 and will be placed on paid sick leave as needed.
• Strict adherence to all CDC protocols — in particular the importance of frequent hand washing for at least 20 seconds and social distancing.

So we all remain as healthy as possible, we encourage guests to:

• Wash hands thoroughly before eating and drinking
• Avoid touching your face
• Cover mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze
• Stay home if you do not feel well

We are a family at Baxter’s, and we care about the health and safety of each of our staff members and our guests. We will continue to follow best practices to support the health of all, so we may continue serving you and so you may continue to trust in our team’s delivery of the best dining experience at the Lake of the Ozarks.
