How do I know if there is a restaurant at a given lat-long location?
Can we use google maps/ google places/ Yelp/ FourSquare for the same?

You could use the Foursquare API and search for venues at that location with the following request. Just pass your latitude & longitude in the ll param and set the radius around that point in meters in the radius param.
GET https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/search?ll=44.3,37.2&radius=200
With the categories field that is provided in the response you can check whether the place is a restaurant or not
