# Serve: Agent-Direct Score F (33.4%) Site: http://serve.house Report: https://directindex.org/r/serve.house Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Serve is largely invisible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by Serve's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It can't find a link to book or order online. ## Direct links - Phone: (972) 290-0009 - Address: 320 W 8th St, 75208, Dallas ## Nearby, also direct Places near Serve that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade (10 m): https://directindex.org/r/wowwowhawaiianlemonade.com - Isla & Co. (100 m): https://directindex.org/r/isla-co.com - Whisk Crepes Cafe (120 m): https://directindex.org/r/whiskdallas.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **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 - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (challenge:attention required) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## 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. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Serve > local business in 320 W 8th St, 75208, Dallas, Dallas cafes and bars.
