We usually just describe food and restaurants as "good". There are times when it's okay to be more expressive and use words like tasty, delectable, etc., but "good" will always work.

@jmpeer thanks… but what could be a reason ? You said that it can be used and it’s not really wrong.
This wording in Germany is more like slang but used very often.
Let’s look for a „good“ restaurant
(German standard - nobody wants a bad restaurant)
Let’s look for a „nice“ restaurant
(We would say it more in the context of a cozy restaurant)
Let’s look for a „tasty“ restaurant
(would be more slang and the less formal version of delicious)

@unocal76 Sorry, I was unclear.
1. I wouldn't use words that describe foods to describe restaurants.
2. Some words, like "delectable" and "yummy" usually only appear in things like reviews and advertisements. But sometimes, people use them in person to stand out or be playful or festive.
4. Some words, like "delicious", "excellent", and "amazing" are commonly used in person when complimenting someone's cooking, when talking with a friend about a food you tried and really liked, etc. But, people usually just say "good", even when excited.
> It was good, thank you.
> Yeah, it was "very" good!
> Oh my gosh, it was "so" good!
