# Chennai Meals: Agent-Direct Score D (41.5%) Site: http://www.chennaimeals.co.uk/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/chennaimeals.co.uk Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Chennai Meals is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open Chennai Meals's website. What Chennai Meals offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to Deliveroo, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Prices: 79 prices on the site, the middle one £4.00 ## Nearby, also direct Places near Chennai Meals that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Yetenbi Kitfo And Eritrean Restaurant (110 m): https://directindex.org/r/yetenbikitfo.co.uk - Jin Du - fish & chips Manchester (250 m): https://directindex.org/r/jindumanchester.co.uk - Dallas Pizza (730 m): https://directindex.org/r/dallas-pizza.co.uk - The Walled Gardens Underground Restaurant (770 m): https://directindex.org/r/veggiechef.co.uk ## 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 - **Ordering only through deliveroo.** (+12 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/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps - **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to deliveroo.co.uk, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it. - **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.
