So in the second scenario, you get to keep on selling food for full price and the delivery companies generate business for you for free, but it's a bad deal because .. a few people might leave bad reviews on yelp when something is clearly DoorDash's fault? It sounds like a good deal to me. You get bad reviews from idiots no matter what anyway.

In the second scenario you will not be able to pay the waiters you had on staff before the pandemic. There's nothing for them to do (assuming the restaurant moves to carryout only, as is currently mandated in DC.) You get paid for the food from the delivery service, but you don't see any tips.

If you don’t have a good set up for delivery, the bad reviews will not be “a few” and it will certainly be more than what you would’ve otherwise had. There are examples of restaurants receiving literally dozens of negative reviews from this in a short period of time.
