## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+1 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (no points, but worth doing) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows 4156361299, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +14159690279. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org.

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2019.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In San Francisco, 63% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **5 prices on the landing page, the middle one $88.00.** In San Francisco, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $95.00.

## 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.

- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, opening hours
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without going through a marketplace.
