You can select those elements with an xpath like

node[tag[@k='amenity' and @v='restaurant']]/tag[@k='name']

for more informations, see
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt

If you only want the names as a flat text file, you can use a command line 
tool like xmlstarlet (http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net) and do something like

xml sel -t -m "//node[tag[@k='amenity' and @v='restaurant']]/tag[@k='name']"
        -v "@v" -o "
" file.osm
