Ask HN: Is GDRP causing commercial censorship?

Here's the website in question: https://www.carrabbas.com/

I mentioned this restaurant to my girlfriend in Italy (because they catered a Christmas party last night), and she can't access the site at all. That is, it says "Our website is unavailable in your region."

Is an Italian restaurant afraid of Italians?!?

In all seriousness, is this just GDRP stupidity? How can someone in the EU have full access to information when companies do stuff like this?

Granted, this is a seemingly innocuous example, but to me it hints at a much larger problem!
