other public health measures. Increasing capacity is welcome news for Sachit Mehra, the third-generation owner of East India Company Restaurants, even if the York Avenue location can’t seat the 167 people it was able to prior to the pandemic.“We’re very fortunate that all our locations are very spacious — they’re very big — so for us to be able to distance tables around the room is easy,” Mehra said Sunday afternoon while about a dozen patrons sat in the dining room. “You can be at 100 per cent inside the restaurant but if you’re spacing your tables out two metres then that means 50 per cent.”Mehra estimated about 60 people will be able to sit with two-metres between tables.
