Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Bao Kitchen is ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Bao Kitchen's website. It can read what Bao Kitchen offers. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://baokitchen.com.ar/#reserva (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://baokitchen.com.ar/menu (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://baokitchen.com.ar/menu
- Phone: +5491137033931

## What to fix first
- Languages: English, Spanish
- WhatsApp: a link on the site

- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (Restaurant).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without going through a marketplace.
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without going through a marketplace.
