After the top fixes

With the two fixes above (Booking only through opentable; The server turns AI crawlers away at the door), the score would be about 100%, which would be first of 277 in Honolulu cafes and bars.

Findings

What to fix first

  1. Booking only through opentable +12 points

    Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. How to fix it About this vendor

  2. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +10 points

    Requests as GPTBot (challenge:access denied), ClaudeBot (challenge:access denied), PerplexityBot (challenge:access denied) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it

  3. 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. How to fix it

  4. The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data

    The site shows +18089318636, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists 8089224422. 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.

Already right

  • robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
  • Structured data found (Restaurant) address, phone, opening hours
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • OpenTable works with agents through its partners OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
