Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business - **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows +441506901046, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists 01312853109.

Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt.
