title: Google place api: Place Search filter by country
body: <p>I'm working on <a href="https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/search#TextSearchRequests">Google Place API</a> with Text Search Requests and I'm wondering how to filter results for a specific country. Is there a way?</p>
  
  <p>What I'm trying to do is call the api with results filtered by country and then manage the json result with php.</p>
  
  <p>So, this is a kind of query </p>
  
  <pre><code>https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=pizza&amp;sensor=true&amp;key=mykey
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I wish to add a parameter like &amp;country=us, but it seems it doesn't exists.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
