Report: https://directindex.org/r/geistnashville.com
Scanned: 2026-11-12 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Geist Bar + Restaurant is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Geist Bar + Restaurant's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through OpenTable.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.opentable.com/widget/reservation/loader?rid=1017943&type=button&theme=standard&iframe=true&overlay=false&domain=com&lang=en-US (through opentable acting for the business)
- Phone: +16159205440
- Address: 311 Jefferson St, Nashville 37208
- Hours, from geistnashville.com: Mon closed; Tue–Wed 17:00–23:00; Thu 17:30–23:00; Fri–Sat 17:00–00:00; Sun 10:00–15:00

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Geist Bar + Restaurant that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- The Side Piece Nashville (1.5 km): https://directindex.org/r/thesidepiecenashville.com
- The Lounge at 2nd (1.6 km): https://directindex.org/r/theloungeat2nd.com
- Tin Roof Broadway (1.7 km): https://directindex.org/r/tinroofbroadway.com
- Luke's 32 Bridge (1.7 km): https://directindex.org/r/lukes32bridge.com

## What to fix first
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+1 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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)
- **The footer says © 2023.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Nashville, 80% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, opening hours
- **Booking through opentable on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **OpenTable works with agents through its partners.** OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. 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.
