Nominal

A nominal measurement is the lowest level of measurement and is used for classification. It refers to classifying or distinguishing data by name or categories.

In this case, since we're only classifying the types of restaurants by name and categories such as fast food, organic food, sea food etc, the nominal measurement scale is the most appropriate.
