Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included +25 points

    A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); 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. How to fix it

  2. No structured data for the business +15 points

    Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  3. Booking only through opentable +9 points

    Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. How to fix it About this vendor

  4. Ordering through an unrecognised third party +9 points

    Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. How to fix it

  5. Menu or price list is a PDF +3 points

    Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as HTML, keep the PDF as a download. How to fix it
