## Direct links
- Book directly: https://v2.tableonline.fi/instabook/bookings/ePLe1vc (through tableonline acting for the business)
- Menu: https://bistroelo.fi/menu/
- Phone: +358103404055
- Address: Mannerheimintie 109, 00280, Helsinki
- Prices: 11 prices on the site, the middle one €14.00
- Languages: English, Finnish

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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
- **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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **11 prices on the landing page, the middle one €14.00.** In Helsinki, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is €14.00.
