かつくら is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by かつくら's website. It can read what かつくら offers. It can't find a link to book or order online.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.katsukura.jp/menu/
- Languages: Japanese, English

## Nearby, also direct

- 炙りや あんどん (100 m): https://directindex.org/r/aburiya-andon.com

## What to fix first
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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
- **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

## 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
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "かつくら",
  "url": "http://www.katsukura.jp",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 35.7504083,
    "longitude": 139.8045567
  },
  "hasMenu": "https://www.katsukura.jp/menu/"
}
</script>
```

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.

```

## About

- Website: http://www.katsukura.jp

```

## Already right

- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
