The 2020 NFL season comes to a close on Sunday, February 7, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV (6:30 p.m., CBS). Huge game day parties aren’t advisable during the COVID-19 crisis, and restaurants in D.C. must limit indoor dining capacity to 25 percent, so festivities will look a little different this year. Still, the annual event is an opportunity for local restaurants to move wings, nachos, Cuban sandwiches, K.C.-style burnt ends, and more. This map emphasizes takeout specials with a couple options for watching inside a restaurant.

A number of D.C. area restaurants have resumed dine-in service. The level of service offered is indicated on each map point. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns. The Washington Post is tracking coronavirus cases and deaths in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. More information can be found at coronavirus.dc.gov. Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
