Site: https://www.mezzomezzo.ch
Report: https://directindex.org/r/mezzomezzo.ch
Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Mezzo is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Mezzo's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through aleno.

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Mezzo that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- VITO Klybeck (790 m): https://directindex.org/r/vito.ch
- Best Pizza (890 m): https://directindex.org/r/bestpizza.ch
- SO Pizza (1 km): https://directindex.org/r/so.pizza
- stripped pizza (1.2 km): https://directindex.org/r/stripped-pizza.com
- 10' dieci (1.6 km): https://directindex.org/r/dieci.ch

## What to fix first
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Basel, 29% of comparable sites declare one.

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
