Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Basilisk is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Basilisk's website. What Basilisk offers is on another site. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Square.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://basiliskpdx.square.site/ (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-503-234-7151
- Address: Northeast 27th Avenue 820 97232 Portland
- Hours, from OpenStreetMap: Mon–Fri 15:00–22:00; Sat–Sun 12:00–22:00

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Basilisk that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Tight Tacos (10 m): https://directindex.org/r/tighttacos.com
- Boxcar Pizza (20 m): https://directindex.org/r/boxcarpizzapdx.com

- Friendship Kitchen (370 m): https://directindex.org/r/friendshipkitchenpdx.com
- Montelupo Italian Market (390 m): https://directindex.org/r/montelupo.co

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to square.site, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
