I'm cheap so rarely. I can drive to the restaurant and back for a few cents vs paying big bucks for delivery.

2-4 times a week. Usually lunch but dinner pretty frequently too. With UberEats, DoorDash and GrubHub i can order from pretty much every restaurant in the wider area. It saves me a lot of time and gives me more choices. Happy to pay for that.

Order food online? Are you referring to groceries or prepared cooked food?

I took it as meaning actual groceries.. I think ordering a meal is a totally different topic or that is how I took it.

OP cited Cafe Rio which is a fast casual restaurant chain serving Mexican cuisine. So I took it to mean lunch/dinner and not groceries. Cafe Rio doesnt sell you a box of corn flakes or a gallon of milk.

We just ordered food from Cafe Rio just now!

Any other comments about it?
At least once a week. It is a modern marvel of convenience. But I also get it delivered, and even get groceries delivered.

Never, not groceries, and not prepared food, either.

I haven't yet, but probably will someday.

I spent the last decade in a backward rural area where I couldn't even get pizza delivered, so I'm not used to the idea of convenience.

I just spent the best part of 3 months working out of town. I ordered online for probably 50% of my meals, a lot of it through the door dash app.

I forgot about the dinner companies, in that case I've been ordering online at least once a month for over a year. I enjoy cooking with the boxed kits.

Re-read the OP. It was clearly about ordering meals.
