Menus
THE FOLLOWING POLICIES ARE IN AFFECT:
Masks are now required for all guests and employees of The Painted Burro, regardless of your vaccination status. Face coverings are mandatory when entering our restaurant and if you are not seated at your table (entering, exiting, using the restroom, and walking around the restaurant). We appreciate your help keeping our team and fellow guests safe!
There is a 5% Kitchen Admin Fee applied to all checks. We feel this is the most transparent & best way in lieu of raising our menu prices, to help close the gap in wage disparities between our Front of the House and Back of the House employees.
Thank you for your support & understanding!
