## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.minibarbyjoseandres.com/reservations/ (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://getbento.com/?utm_source=header&utm_campaign=minibarbyjoseandres.com (through bentobox acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-202-393-0812

## What to fix first
- **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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) 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

## 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.
