# Kobe: Agent-Direct Score C (55.4%) Site: https://koberestaurant.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/koberestaurant.com Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.) Kobe is partly visible to agents. ## Direct links - Order directly: https://order.toasttab.com/egiftcards/kobe-japanese-steakhouse-vancouver (through toast acting for the business) - Phone: +16046842451 ## 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). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **Booking only through opentable.** (+5 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models.
