No delivery service is good. Why would I pay more for soggy food that left the kitchen almost an hour ago? Restaurant's own delivery services don't even suffer from this as they go right from store to door. Ubereats et al orders sit for 15 minutes by the register waiting for the driver to appear.

Not sure how food delivery works in US, but here in London I can get my food no late than say 45mins after I placed my order (via Deliveroo and afaik JustEat too). And the only time I ordered food in US, I had the pizza about 30mins after I ordered it (via UberEats).
30 minutes-ish is common in any US city. The only time it goes longer is during peek periods.
