Sure, if that's how food delivery works where you live, then I'm sure that the SF/Silicon Vally type services works better. But that's because the service suck where you live.

Most fast food place either use JustEat or Hungry to accept your order and take your credit card information, if they don't have their own website or app. They will have their own drivers, employed and paid directly by the restaurant and they don't expect a tip.

That's what I compare any "startup" food delivery service to. So they will always be worse and more expensive, because a third party is now involved.

Most local places have a very strong accent.

Tastier the food, stronger the accent.

Several places we flat out can’t communicate with.

The worse is a local pizza joint with the thickest Indian accent I’ve every heard. I work with Indians, and I still can’t understand them. Really good pizza.

Ask the whole kid angle. Kids screaming, work screaming, wife screaming...
