Our patio is now open! Don’t wait to book your tables, they fill up fast. Reservations are recommended. We are pleased to be able to serve the community of Burlington once again! It was a late start but now that we’re here we are in full throttle. We have gone through the checklist and have ensured we are following all necessary protocols to continue to protect the community from the spread of covid-19. Our staff are all well trained and educated on the procedures that are required to follow to protect each other. We expect the same in return and encourage all to follow the standard procedures when dinning out. Maintain a safe social distance from guests and staff. Wash or sanitize your hands often. Please stay home if your not feeling well. And above all respect your server as they are putting themselves out there to provide a service for you to enjoy. While our patio is open we will continue to offer takeout for those not wanting to dine out just yet. To place your orders please call in. Thank you for the continued support while we battle through the year 2020. #dimariostrattoria #dimarios #downtownburlington #dimariosdoestakeout #italianfood #italianwine
