Tacebuds is ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Tacebuds's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://www.tacebuds.com/order (on the business's own site)
- Phone: 12143779112
- Address: 6801 Harry Hines Blvd, 75235-4210, Dallas

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Tacebuds that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- The Taco Pronto Cafe (0 m): https://directindex.org/r/tacoprontotogo.com
- La Jaivita Mexican Seafood Restaurant (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/lajaivita.com
- Blues Burgers (250 m): https://directindex.org/r/bluesburgers.net
- The Taco Spot (260 m): https://directindex.org/r/tacospotaz.com
- Smokey John's Bar-B-Que & Home Cooking (300 m): https://directindex.org/r/smokeyjohns.com

## What to fix first
- **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
- **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

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