Someone wants to try a new restaurant along a specific street or in a specific town/city. In Maps, when I search for “restaurant”, it automatically searches in the area where I am located. I tried dropping a pin on the major commercial boulevard in which I am interested in searching, but that didn’t seem to affect the search results . Is there a way to search for a type of establishment in a specific area?
