# Zolas: Agent-Direct Score A (86.2%)

Site: http://www.zolas.ca/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/zolas.ca
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.)
Zolas is ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Zolas's website. It can read what Zolas offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Tock.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.exploretock.com/zolas-ottawa (through tock acting for the business)
- Order directly: https://zolas.ca/take-out/ (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://zolas.ca/take-out/
- Phone: +16137210227

## What to fix first

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2021.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Ottawa, 79% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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

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.
