It depends on the jurisdiction. In the UK I believe that hot food is taxed in the same way whether it is on-premises or takeaway.
Anyway, at least in the UK and some other EU countries there is no obligation to lower the price because tax is lower (since prices to consumers are inclusive of all taxes) so if tax is indeed lower it can be a bonus for the restaurant (on top of cost savings), which makes Deliveroo's fee even less of a "robbery".
