# Nozaru: Agent-Direct Score D (53.4%) Site: https://nozaruramen.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/nozaruramen.com 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.) Nozaru is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of Nozaru. What Nozaru offers is in a PDF or an image, which assistants read poorly. It finds a way to book or order directly, through DoorDash Storefront. ## Direct links - Order directly: https://order.online/business/nozaru-ramen-bar-53171 (through doordash_storefront acting for the business) - Menu: https://nozaruramen.com/menu/Nozaru_Menu2025-Summer.pdf - Phone: +1-619-564-7183 ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Live fetches as GPTBot (http_429) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as HTML, keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript - **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. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Nozaru > restaurant (ramen) in Adams Avenue 3375 92116 San Diego, San Diego.
