I don't believe I have ever used a delivery service. I don't like the business model of charging the restaurant, charging me, and then expecting me to pay (tip) the driver. This just seems like a lot of money for coming up with the idea of having an app.

I know profit margins are tight in the restaurant business so I would rather spend money on the restaurant rather than the app developer. I know of one restaurant here than can take online orders through a delivery service. I suspect they get charged a fee for every order that comes in that way, even if I drive to the restaurant and pick it up myself. I now phone in my order to avoid costing the restaurant that fee.

Eat-in or carryout/pickup for me.
