Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Luka's Barbecue & Steakhouse is partly visible to agents.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Luka's Barbecue & Steakhouse, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://lukasbbq.com/menu?dialogState=orderDetails (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://lukasbbq.com/menu
- Phone: +1-281-286-8669

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing

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