Approximately 100 protesters gathered at the Tre Lune Italian restaurant in Montecito Saturday afternoon, fighting the state’s recent shutdown order that forbids restaurants from serving food to diners on-site.
The restaurant served pizza and water bottles to the mostly masked protesters, although a handful didn’t wear masks at all or took their masks down to eat the pizza being served on-site. Several people gave speeches at the rally, including Tre Lune owner Gene Montesano and even pop star Katy Perry’s father, Keith Hudson.
There were a handful of signs brandished at the protest with slogans that read, “Where is the science?” and “Enough is enough.”
