I can't install dependencies for React Native Projects correctly - react-native

Question

So I tried running a React Native project in my android emulator using Expo, but every time I install someone else's project, I'm not able to run it.
This is how I install the project along with its dependencies:
> git clone https://github.com/nabendu82/NativeRestaurantSearc.git
> cd NativeRestaurantSearc
> npm install
> npm start
When I run all this, I recieve this error message:
error Invalid regular expression: /(.*\\__fixtures__\\.*|node_modules[\\\]react[\\\]dist[\\\].*|website\\node_modules\\.*|heapCapture\\bundle\.js|.*\\__tests__\\.*)$/: Unterminated character class.
Metro Bundler process exited with code 1

I think this has to do with npm not installing the dependencies correctly. There must be going something wrong when I do this, because this is the message I recieve when I run npm install:
added 809 packages from 438 contributors and audited 37723 packages in 119.347s
found 1072 low severity vulnerabilities
run `npm audit fix` to fix them, or `npm audit` for details
What can I do to fix this? I tried reinstalling npm but that doesn't work.
