so you will find a restaurant with closed doors ... while searching for 
an opened one.

If it is an _abandoned_ restaurant it is no restaurant anymore.
In this case I would remove the amenity tag and leave the name only - in 
fact it _is_ just a building with a big name sign then (case here with a 
Burger King since around 2 years).
