Protein-packed meals are still having a moment, too, with plenty of customers choosing options designed to fuel and fill you up. As DoorDash put it, &#8220;Across all definitions, customers are increasingly turning to local restaurants that make healthy eating both wholesome and delicious.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">To create the list, DoorDash looked at small and medium-sized restaurants and brands nationwide with high customer ratings, at least 500 reviews, and fewer than 10 locations on the platform. The results?
