>what is a delivery only restaurant?

Some restaurants don't have any seating area. Think Dominos Pizza.

>When you think about ordering delivery it's because you're trying to satiate a craving.

Or you just don't feel like cooking. Also you might want anything random - something different you don't dislike. And you don't feel like walking to a restaurant and sitting there alone waiting for food + paying tips etc.

The definition of a restaurant is "a building where people go to eat", if you can't eat there, it's not a restaurant…
Are we really going to start splitting hairs about "delivery place" vs "takeout" vs "restaurant"? It's clear what the OP is talking about; cooking food and delivering it is not a novel concept.
