# Gray's Hall: Agent-Direct Score D (52.3%) Site: http://www.grayshall.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/grayshall.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Gray's Hall is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open Gray's Hall's website. It can read what Gray's Hall offers. To book or order, it is sent to Resy, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Menu: https://www.grayshall.com/menudinner - Phone: +16172691001 - Address: 615 E Broadway, 02127, Boston ## Nearby, also direct Places near Gray's Hall that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Cafe Porto Bello (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/cafeportobello.net - Roza Lyons (230 m): https://directindex.org/r/rozalyons.com - My Diner (340 m): https://directindex.org/r/mydinerboston.com - Petula’s (360 m): https://directindex.org/r/petulasboston.com - Publico (370 m): https://directindex.org/r/publicoboston.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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 - **Booking only through resy.** (+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/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript - **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 © 2019.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Boston, 77% 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. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Gray's Hall > local business in 615 E Broadway, 02127, Boston, Boston.
