How is this different than 'nice' fast food restaurants? Chainwise, Chipotle or similar?

Chipotle is pretty much the only "eating out" experience I've engaged in since the pandemic started.
Somehow they managed to not raise their prices, or raise it insignificantly enough to where I didn't notice it (50 cents across the board maybe?).
For sit-down places, I frequently see price hikes of 20-30% since early 2020 and mandatory gratuity for parties of 4 now, which is frankly ridiculous, because the food quality stayed the same or has gotten worse. Not to mention that the whole experience of sharing an indoor space with an unknown demographic is dubious at best.
