# Biryani Guru: Agent-Direct Score D (49.2%)

Site: https://biryaniguru.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/biryaniguru.com
Scanned: 2026-11-05 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Biryani Guru is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Biryani Guru's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to Zomato, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Phone: +917303313535
- Address: Mermaid 1, Thane Belapur Road, opposite Indian Naval Canteen, 400614, Navi Mumbai

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Biryani Guru that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.

- Sadda Punjab (550 m): https://directindex.org/r/shan-e-punjab.com

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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
- **Booking only through zomato.** (+9 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **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
- **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 02227561041, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +917303313535. 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.

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2022.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Mumbai, 66% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Mumbai, 2.4% of comparable sites declare one.

## 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.
