La'Baik: A Mediterranean Taste is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants cannot open the website of La'Baik: A Mediterranean Taste, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://app.squareup.com/gift/MLCJ69DHK3GX4/order (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-703-512-2123

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, 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 is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Menu or price list lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to square.site, so the credit and the traffic go there. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Ordering through square on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
