Edwardo's Natural Pizza is mostly ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Edwardo's Natural Pizza's website. It can read what Edwardo's Natural Pizza offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Toast.

## What to fix first
- **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
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows +13123374490, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists (773) 761-7040. 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 (Restaurant).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Toast works with agents through its partners.** Toast's guest terms could not be read on 2026-10-15 (bot challenge); since August 2026 Google's Ask Maps completes orders at Toast restaurants through Toast Local under the UCP for Food standard. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.digitaltransactions.net/square-toast-jump-into-ai-boosted-google-maps/. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
