Site: http://www.elgranbamboo.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/elgranbamboo.com
Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
El Gran Bamboo Restaurant is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants cannot open the website of El Gran Bamboo Restaurant, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://order.toasttab.com/online/gbr-10325-hammocks-blvd (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://elgranbamboo.com/menu-1

## 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest 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. Read 2026-10-15: https://www.digitaltransactions.net/square-toast-jump-into-ai-boosted-google-maps/. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
