    Is a hot dog stand a restaurant?

    It’s a business with a kitchen, staff (1 person) and a dining area on occasion (foldable plastic chairs and tables).

      That seems like an argument the courts are hearing. How does the legal definition of “restaurant” require “dining space”? Ed: tou seem to have edited since my reply. I say yes, a food truck is a restaurant.

      My point is, when Americans colloquially say “restaurant” they mean “any dining establishment”. We can piss and fight over semantics but what yall got are bars across from schools.
