Hello friends,

As many of you have heard, our Governor signed an order yesterday that has caused confusion in both our industry and amongst the public which many (including some media) have perceived as ‘All bars must close at 11pm’.

The order, if read closely, states that “bar areas” must close but table service can continue to seated guests. Since reopening, Kai has decided to not seat at our bar or allow any congregation in our bar area and has gladly complied (and STRICTLY ENFORCED) within the state’s guidelines.

Kai has been visited numerous times by both The Department of Health and the Covid-19 task force and has been found in compliance with regulations set forth by the state. Kai Restaurant and Bar will continue to operate under these guidelines and offer our full food menu late night and also continued adult beverage table service until our usual last call at 12:45am.

We ask for your continued cooperation with following these guidelines as now, more than ever, we need to continue to prove to the state that a VAST majority of our industry in RI have invested an incredible amount of time and money to doing everything possible to survive. We encourage you to continue to support us, our employees, and our brothers and sisters in this very challenging industry in establishments complying with the safety guidelines set forth.

We look forward to doing what we do best, serving up positive vibes and a great product from your dedicated Kai family.
