Any company that sells to people inside their homes is doing great. Games and content providers, video conferencing software, restaurants that do food delivery, Amazon.

Anecdote: just talked to my neighbor who owns a delivery takeout quick service restaurant and they estimate business is down 70%... maybe the bigger chains are ok but small business likely not
Restaurants still have the hurdle of fear - is everybody in the kitchen wearing gloves, are they all non-COVID, etc.. There are enough touchpoints in the process to get take out delivered I'm avoidng it.
And that is certainly your prerogative to do. My family is getting takeout a few times a week to support our favorite local restaurants. Just providing a counter point that there is still money going into some restaurants (although I'm sure it is less than typical).
