One thing you could do, especially if you're going to be doing this for Ye Olde Blog, is to ring up the restaurant and say, "Allo, there. I write for [blog name] and we're interested in featuring your restaurant. Do you mind if I bring in The Big Camera when we visit?".
Only a fool would tell you no. Also, you could ask when would be the best time for you to visit to take pictures. That way, you could also get some snaps of the restaurant itself if you're so inclined.
