A Message to our future customers on COVID-19

Dear future customer,

Atxondo is a family made up of our staff, guests and the community we serve. The health, safety and overall wellbeing of our family and yours, is always our top priority.

With this in mind, we have been closely monitoring the rapidly-changing situation around COVID-19 (commonly referred to as coronavirus), responding to new information as it arises and preparing for all possible scenarios, with the goal of opening next week and  to safely serve you in our restaurant.

In addition to following the guidance provided by the CDC, WHO and local health departments, we are  implementing our response. To err on the side of  caution, we have taken the following steps beyond our usual high standards:

  • We re-emphasized existing sanitation and illness policies, including frequent and proper hand-washing, and our practices regarding wearing and changing of gloves.
  • We’ve emphasized what associates can do to keep themselves and others safe, including not touching one’s face, and staying home if sick.

Be assured we will do everything we can to serve you  safely and will continue to closely follow the guidance of the CDC and local health officials. We will always follow the guidance of local health officials as we continue to manage in our community.

We are focused on making sure our staff can put their health first and foremost as we face this situation together. We will  keep you updated as we continue to monitor the COVID-19.

We know there is a lot of information..
