Easter falls on Sunday, April 12, but observers won’t be heading to houses of worship followed by large family dinners this year. We can’t head to favorite restaurants for traditional feasts.

Similarly, Passover begins April 8 and ends Thursday, April 16 and large family seders aren’t happening this year.

Restaurants, like always have stepped up to comfort and help commemorate and reflect during these religious holidays. They work well for a family meal this weekend and would be a great gift for healthcare workers and first responders too. Here are many to choose from, broken down by neighborhood/part of town.
