# Grove Soho: Agent-Direct Score B (75.4%) Site: https://www.grovesoho.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/grovesoho.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.) Grove Soho is mostly ready for agents. An AI assistant can open Grove Soho's website. It can read what Grove Soho offers. To book or order, it is sent to OpenTable, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Order directly: http://ordering.chownow.com/order/39612/locations/ (through chownow acting for the business) - Menu: https://grovesoho.com/menu/ - Phone: +18139900400 - Address: 406 S Howard Ave, Tampa 33606 ## Nearby, also direct Places near Grove Soho that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - MacDinton's (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/macdintons.com - Sunset Rodeo (130 m): https://directindex.org/r/sunsetrodeo.com - LALA Tampa (230 m): https://directindex.org/r/lalakaraoke.com ## What to fix first - **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Booking only through opentable.** (+5 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 - **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 8138955379, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +18139900400. 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. ## 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. ``` # Grove Soho > organization in 406 S Howard Ave, Tampa 33606, Tampa cafes and bars.
