Speed

8 to fix63
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.7 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.7 s.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (getbento.com, Google CDN and Klaviyo and others), adding 4.1 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.3 MB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.3 MB).

  • Mobile performance score: 63

    63/100

    Your mobile performance score is 63 (desktop: 86). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • getbento.com adds 699 ms

    699 ms

    getbento.com costs a phone 699 ms of main-thread work and 2.7 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    810 KiB

    About 810 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Google CDN adds 414 ms

    414 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 414 ms of main-thread work and 733 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Main-thread work: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 11 long tasks on the main thread

    11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 147 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    83 KiB

    9 images could be 83 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    79 KiB

    About 79 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    57 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 57 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Chained critical requests

    Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix74
  • Time to Interactive: 23.4 s

    23.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 23.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.0 s

    9.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    Your largest element takes 3.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “John Fraser Restaurants Home”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 445 ms

    445 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 445 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 9 images without width and height

    9 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 18% slower for real visitors

    +18%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.4 MB in 83 requests

    4.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 83 requests on a phone: scripts 2.7 MB (36), images 875 KiB (21) and fonts 434 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.26 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.26 g of CO₂e: 151.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9697
  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 8 links without text

    8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 20 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10088
  • Title is short (14 characters)

    Your title is only 14 characters: “JF Restaurants”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Home” and “‎”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 47 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 47 pages on jfrestaurants.com and 16 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 155 characters

    Your meta description is 155 characters: “NY-based hospitality group leading the industry in vegetarian and vegan cuisine, and partnered with worldwide brands fo…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.jfrestaurants.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.jfrestaurants.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.jfrestaurants.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 14 pages share a meta description

    https://www.jfrestaurants.com/our-story, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/location/north-fork-table-inn, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/the-times-square-edition, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/the-wall-street-hotel, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/location/obvio-nyc and https://www.jfrestaurants.com/location/casa-cruz and 8 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    https://www.jfrestaurants.com/the-times-square-edition, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/the-wall-street-hotel, https://www.jfrestaurants.com/the-tampa-edition and https://www.jfrestaurants.com/winthrop-center-boston have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 21 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Best practices

Google 96100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    14 of 17 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • Only about 119 words

    The homepage has only about 119 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “JOIN OUR MAILING LIST”.

  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Join Our Mailing List”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (4 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 20 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 20 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at jfrestaurants.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
