Right, but without the framing that the restaurants are the little guy standing up to the system, what you're describing is just monopoly behavior. (Imagine all the grocery stores getting together and saying "hey, potato farmers, we decided your prices need to go down".)

It won't be a monopoly unless every restaurant signs up to their movement.

It seems somewhat distasteful to argue that the pricing power of the rich, powerful party should not be countered by the weaker, poorer party improving their pricing power - especially on a moral basis.
