Orthodox Jews will generally only eat in Kosher restaurants.
Non-Orthodox Jews who keep kosher will generally only eat vegetarian or certain fish in restaurants.
__________
For Orthodox Jews who only eat kosher, they will only eat in a restaurant that is certified kosher. Kosher restaurants will display their certification to the public. Meat restaurants will have a moshgiach (kashrut supervisor) on staff during operating hours. Dairy restaurants might also but it's not a requirement, most dairy restaurants will have spot inspections.
Some Orthodox Jews will not eat in any restaurant, even if it's certified Kosher.

What do you mean you talk about kosher foods?
The word kosher means 'fit'. When describing food as kosher, this means that the food in question is considered fit for eating by religiously observant Jews. Many people believe that food is made kosher when a Rabbi blesses it, however, this is false. In order for food to be kosher, the food has to be prepared following the laws of kashrut. Food that is not prepared following these laws cannot be made kosher after the fact.
