Everything in the Package
“We just mark the menu up to cover the commission.”
Almost every restaurant owner tells us this, and it's a sensible thing to do. But it's worth checking whether the markup actually covers the commission — because usually it doesn't.
Here's a real example. The Chicken Kebab at Istanbul Grill House & Cafe in Edmond is $19 on their own menu and $22 on DoorDash. At a typical 30% commission, here's how those two orders compare.
Sold on DoorDash
Restaurant keeps$15.40
Sold direct
Restaurant keeps$18.01
The customer pays $3 less. The restaurant keeps $2.61 more. Same kebab.
Menu and DoorDash prices are publicly listed. Commission shown is a typical industry rate, not a specific restaurant's contracted rate.
And here's the part most owners miss
Going from $19 to $22 is a 15.8% markup — against a commission that typically runs 25–30%. A markup like that covers only about half of what the app takes. The rest comes out of the restaurant's margin on every order.
Worth doing this math on your own best seller: menu price, app price, and your commission rate. Most restaurants find the gap is bigger than they assumed.
None of this means dropping the delivery apps. Direct ordering runs side by side with them — keep DoorDash and Uber Eats for people who've never heard of you, and give your regulars somewhere cheaper for them and better for you.
There's one more thing you get back: the customer. Every app order belongs to the app — you can't email them, text them, or win them back on a slow Tuesday. Direct orders build a customer list that's yours.

What Your Customer Pays. What You Actually Keep.
Including delivery and service fees on both sides — because that's what your customer sees at checkout. Adjust everything with your own numbers.
Delivery commissions typically run 15–30%.
Keep the apps for discovery. This is just your regulars moving over.
Delivery fees the customer pays
App fees combine the delivery fee and the percentage service fee your customer pays — typically $6–$12 on a standard order. Direct delivery is $7 flat within 5 miles, $1/mile beyond.

Assumptions
• Direct ordering: $0.99 flat per order, no commission
• Direct price shown is your true menu price, with no app markup
• Delivery fees pass through to the courier on both sides — they aren't restaurant revenue
• Tips excluded; they go to the driver either way
The Questions Restaurant Owners Actually Ask
No. Direct ordering runs alongside the delivery apps, not instead of them. Most restaurants keep the apps for discovery — people who've never heard of you — and steer their regulars to direct ordering. You decide how hard you push it, and you can change your mind at any time without touching your app listings.
