THIS.

Hearing about GrubHub creating web sites for their customer's restaurants 
and routing calls to their call center is unethical. Seeing how they then
calculate the cost of calls to their customers is horrendous.

It's deceptive looking at a google search for a restaurant and seeing 
competing third-party services that the restaurant may or may not be 
involved with.

I live in an area where there's not a lot of delivery. I have one nearby 
pizzeria that delivers, for the rest I'm fortunate to be able to drive and 
pick up the food. Since 2020, however, most restaurants have improved their 
ability to do takeout, so there's more choice if you're able to pick it up 
yourself.
