You should check the price of the food on the DD menu isn’t also higher than the price on the regular menu. It may be a 2$ fee, but I’ve also seen higher per item prices.
The restaurant probably sets that price. Not only do delivery services ask for fees and tips from you, the customer, they will also take 20% of the restaurant’s earnings for using their delivery services. Hence why some restaurants still choose to be on the app for visibility but have separate delivery and pickup services that they prefer the customer use instead.
Learned this when I was working for a delivery start up that operated locally and didn’t charge such a fee.

Yeah, Uber eats is about 20% more expensive per item on the menu, though I am sure it varies.

Makes sense. I don’t blame them. Uber is a leech. A super convenient leech.
Still not even close to double
