## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows +16265935155, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +18327671856. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Ordering through ubereats_storefront on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
