The number of local restaurant reservations was down 55 percent year-over-year on Sunday amid D.C.’s COVID-19 outbreak, according to data from OpenTable, the online platform that a number of D.C. restaurants use to manage bookings.

The total number of digital and phone reservations and walk-ins in the District was up for much of February, before it began dipping slightly in early March, the company reported (the data only reflects restaurants that use OpenTable.)

But as coronavirus cases appeared in the city, restaurants started seeing steep declines. On March 9, D.C. restaurants saw a 10 percent drop from the same day a year prior. By Thursday and Friday, as an increasing number of events were being canceled and the mayor was announcing new measures to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus,  the decline had grown to 38 percent and 44 percent, respectively.

On Saturday, the numbers held steady at a 44 percent decline year-over-year. And on Sunday the city saw its steepest drop yet: at 55 percent.

Despite those declines, patrons did continue to eat out and go to bars over the weekend in large numbers, even after Mayor Muriel Bowser put a ban on gatherings over 250 people and encouraged residents to practice social distancing and stay away from one another to contain the virus’s spread.

On Sunday, the mayor closed nightclubs and instituted stricter rules for bars and restaurants, including eliminating bar seating and mandating that all tables be six feet away from one another. Some restaurants have already started shuttering of their own accord, or moving to delivery-only

There are now 17 cases of COVID-19 confirmed in the District, with dozens more in Maryland and Virginia.
