Android Difference between google local search and google places api

I am developing app similar to restaurant locator or bank locator. I was looking through examples of google places api. But then I noticed google local search using this url http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/local.

I want to know what is difference between two since both returns places based on lattitude and longitude supplied. Which one is best to use. Thanks in advance.

As local search api was deprecated so I think you cannot depending on the local search as you want place then prefer the google place api instead of local search api

Google Places API vs AJAX Search API and Local Search Control
