I think between Uber Eats delivery prices and generous delivery driver tips, a whole ton of people have been used to paying a lot more for their food, with most of it not even going to the restaurant. They can probably get away with raising their prices more now that we seem to be more or less "back to normal".

Maybe you got used to paying more for your food, but we just stopped eating out. A restaurant meal without shipping costs is just barely cheap enough for us to justify. Adding the cost of a delivery makes it not worth it to us.

They also had delivery convenience and even the expenses are VCs trying to make up for negative profits on margins. I wouldn't take that bet as a resturant given the sheer power of convenience on sales.
