I'm not sure I expect much to change. There's an insane amount of competition in this space, and they all seem to fall prey to the same dark patterns and mediocre execution. I'm starting to question whether any company can successfully squeeze into the already extremely tight margins that restaurants operate in without increasing the cost to the consumer in some way.

It'll probably take a crash and burn of a few big names with VCs being very careful about any new company in that space. I could see something come up that'd be bootstrapped and just slowly gain business in a big metro area before becoming a "thing". Def going to remain a low margin business though so it won't be easy to make it healthy
