## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (http_403). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through.

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2024.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Seattle, 74% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Structured data found (Restaurant).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without going through a marketplace.
