clarify "private place" rule
Sep 20, 2021 at 23:06 comment added David Siegel @Fizz, depending on what the OP means, and whcih mandate is refereed to, the OP may be mistaken Some mandates require a business not to admit n unmasked person (or did, Iam not sure if any such are still in effect). Such a mandate, if issued with valid authority, would be binding on a restaurant.
Sep 20, 2021 at 23:03 comment added Looking for loopholes Frankly I'm not sure what the OP means by "restaurants need not follow the government mandated mask policy for their private place".
Sep 20, 2021 at 23:02 comment added David Siegel I have added a paragrapoh at the end in response to the comment by @Fizz

respone to comment
Sep 20, 2021 at 22:56 comment added David Siegel @ Fizz. That depends on he exact wording of a mask "mandate". Some carry no penalties and so re not really mandates. Some penalize individuals but not businesses. Some require certain businesses .to accept fewer customers at once, Some require businesses (or certain types) not to admit unmasked customers. Only the last typle would be relevant to this question, an the question really assumes a situation in whih both masked and unmasked customers may lawfully be admitted to a business.
Sep 20, 2021 at 22:49 comment added Looking for loopholes Technically you're correct on the last para, but since some localities had mask mandates, a business that only wants to serve unmasked customers in such circumstances has no choice but to (temporarily) close, i.e. accept no customers, while such mandates are in effect, unless they're willing to pay the fines, risk being de-licensed/forcibly closed etc.
