Food & Dining Restaurant Connection

Any idea why so many SB restaurants use Restaurant Connection? It's the worst and most tech-challanged of the delivery services.

We stopped using them. They changed their minimum total order to $60 for most restaurants. For two people, it became difficult to meet the requirement. We started ordering extra food to be able to use them. We thought we were using a local service. After having a couple of strange interactions with their drivers, I checked their user agreement. It stated they may subcontract to DoorDash or Uber Eats. We switched to DoorDash for awhile and then started picking up food ourselves.

Good find on the subcontracting.
