# Délice & Sarrasin: Agent-Direct Score D (50.8%)

Site: https://delicesarrasin.com
Report: https://directindex.org/r/delicesarrasin.com
Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Délice & Sarrasin is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Délice & Sarrasin, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://delicesarrasin.com/reservation-%26-gift-cards (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://delicesarrasin.com/menu
- Phone: +1 212-243-7200

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, 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 is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through.

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+4 points) Missing: telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (no points, still worth doing) Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
