I've never really run the numbers but it would seem very Ontario to want restaurants to cost as little as possible. Which then means that they have to get more people in.
I'd be curious. Might be hard info to come by if available at all
It varies widely from restaurant to restaurant, though, even in the same city. The amount of space, the number of staff and ingredient costs all have big ranges.
