# The Bistro 19: Agent-Direct Score C (61.5%)

Site: https://thebistro19.com.au/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/thebistro19.com.au
Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The Bistro 19 is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open The Bistro 19'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: +61478744494

## What to fix first

- **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
- **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
- **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows +61292623760, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +61478744494. 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.

## Fix kit: What to paste

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