# Raffa's: Agent-Direct Score D (49.2%)

Site: http://raffas.net/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/raffas.net
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.)
Raffa's is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open the website of Raffa's. It can read what Raffa's offers. To book or order, it is sent to Resy, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Menu: http://raffas.net/menus.html

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 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
- **Booking only through resy.** (+12 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Agents and browsers downrank or refuse it.
- **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
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Raffa's",
  "url": "http://raffas.net/",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 30.0317441,
    "longitude": -95.1740349
  },
  "hasMenu": "http://raffas.net/menus.html"
}
</script>
```

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.

> restaurant in Houston.

## Book or order directly

- Menu: http://raffas.net/menus.html

## About

- Website: http://raffas.net/
- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Resy works with agents through its partners.** Resy's terms (9 June 2025) bar automated software that crawls, harvests or scrapes the service and require written consent for other automated use; Resy opened bookings inside ChatGPT on 10 August 2026. Read 2026-10-15: https://resy.com/terms. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
