Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
2.7 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.7 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 747 KiBAbout 747 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 32
32/100Your mobile performance score is 32. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.1 s
A phone's processor spends 4.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, givex.com and Facebook and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
850 ms · 493 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (493 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
770 ms · 197 KiBAbout 197 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 770 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
620 ms · 119 KiB119 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Google Tag Manager adds 514 ms
514 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 514 ms of main-thread work and 530 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.
Improve image delivery
400 ms · 160 KiB5 images could be 160 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
givex.com adds 490 ms
490 msgivex.com costs a phone 490 ms of main-thread work and 253 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.
Facebook adds 343 ms
343 msFacebook costs a phone 343 ms of main-thread work and 308 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.
Minify CSS
310 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
1,982 HTML elements
The page has 1,982 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
250 ms · 60 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 60 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 234 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.1 s
12.1 sYour largest element takes 12.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “It’s not a diet. It’s a lifestyle. • Earn points for $ spen…”.
First Contentful Paint: 6.4 s
6.4 sThe first text or image appears after 6.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 19.3 s
19.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 19.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.3 s
7.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 840 ms
840 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 840 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 52% slower for real visitors
+52%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 146 ms to 221 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Real-user FCP: 1.9 s
1.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s
1.1 sReal visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.154
0.154The layout shifts by 0.154 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
6 images without width and height
6 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
0%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.3 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.0 MB in 125 requests
4.0 MBYour homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 125 requests on a phone: scripts 1.9 MB (51), images 1.1 MB (19) and HTML 491 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
151 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example mrm-location-pin-white.svg at 108 px wide, shown at 14 px. Resized copies would save about 151 KiB.
4 images in older formats
4 images (197 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.13 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.13 g of CO₂e: 135.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (15 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 15 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 4 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
36 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (68 characters)
Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “MR MIKES SteakhouseCasual | Enjoy Our Premium Steaks & Casual Dining”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
32 internal links, 17 external
The homepage links to 32 pages on mrmikes.ca and 17 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 152 characters
Your meta description is 152 characters: “Welcome to MR MIKES Steakhouse, your favourite place to eat. Enjoy premium steaks, burgers, and more in a fun, casual d…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://mrmikes.ca/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://mrmikes.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://mrmikes.ca/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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (474 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
https://mrmikes.ca/privacy-policy is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages without a meta description
https://mrmikes.ca/promotions/lunch-menu and https://mrmikes.ca/privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
4 pages without an H1
https://mrmikes.ca/reservations, https://mrmikes.ca/promotions/lunch-menu, https://mrmikes.ca/promotions/happiest-hours and https://mrmikes.ca/community-connections 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 and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Canonical URLs point to themselves

Titles are unique
Every page we checked has its own title.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
Deprecated browser APIs
The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of null (reading 'addEventListener')”.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
27 of 31 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.
About 539 words of copy
The homepage carries about 539 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “JOIN TODAY”.
10 calls to action
The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Join Our Team”, “Order Online” and “join today”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.
Privacy and tracking
8 trackers load before any consent
8Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and LinkedIn Insight and 3 mores (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.
17 cookies set on arrival
17Opening the homepage sets 17 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.
29 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 29 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 mrmikes.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
