The restaurant doesn't choose the prices DoorDash displays, DoorDash does.

Are you sure about that? I thought the restaurant does. On DoorDash's Help page (https://help.doordash.com/merchants/s/article/How-to-Maximiz...) There's a quote: "To provide a high-quality experience for all of our customers, we set prices on DoorDash the same as our in-store prices. DoorDash even enables operators to set different pricing for delivery and pickup, but a core part of us providing high-quality customer service is accomplished through our consistent menu pricing." - Manuel Bucio, Owner, Razpachos" That seems to indicate the restaurant sets the prices.

You really think Doordash sets individual prices for each dish for the half million restaurants that it lists on its service? It is a simple platform. The restaurant sets up and manages its own menu, and Doordash takes a cut of the final sale.

Based on the fact that other platforms like GrubHub hijacked Google Places registrations for restaurants and also presented menus of non-customer restaurants in the platform, yes, I would not be surprised at all if that type of shenanigans were going on at DoorDash as well.
