# Meadowsweet: Agent-Direct Score D (53.8%)

Site: http://meadowsweetnyc.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/meadowsweetnyc.com
Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Meadowsweet is hard for agents to use.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.meadowsweetnyc.com/reservations (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://order.toasttab.com/online/meadowsweet-149-broadway (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://www.meadowsweetnyc.com/menus
- Phone: +1-718-384-0673

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (http_429); 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.

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+2 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.

## Since the scan of 2026-10-14 (F then)
