Little Alley is partly visible to agents.

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type) with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations for a restaurant. It is the one block every assistant reads first. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking through opentable on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
