COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

Context is everything. The government is requiring that you give your personal information to eat at a restaurant. The government is requiring that a private place of business obtain this information and retain it in order to provide it to the government. I've never eaten out under those conditions, to my knowledge. And I won't eat at a restaurant under those conditions.

We will have a new baby some time this week or next so I don't know if I will eat out any time soon anyway. But if it were to be in Orleans, I'd use a pseudonym and pay cash.

This is quite simply going too far. I can see making a request that people participate in such a practice. But to make it into a requirement, even if unenforceable? That's just wrong.
If you don’t want to dine in under those condition, cool - that’s your choice. And you have alternatives

lying as a way to get around the bruising of your philosophy is not cool, it doesn’t help anyone, and it could hurt people- your family included (not super likely, but still)
