slander
Hello Rabbi Michael, I have recently encountered several instances where it is difficult not to use lashon hara, such as a friend asking for an opinion on a restaurant, or a conversation about certain religious groups. My question is what is the source of the many prohibitions on lashon hara that appear in the Chofetz Chaim book?

The author also cites the sources in his book.
Although turning the issue into a detailed and definitive halakhah seems excessive to me, and it is not without reason that it was not done before the Knesset. I would base most of these laws on common sense and not on evidence from legendary issues of one kind or another.
In my opinion, a review of a restaurant is not slander, firstly because it is for the benefit of the member. Secondly, it is not about a specific person but about an institution (usually you don't know the restaurant manager). And especially if you don't like the taste of the food there, that is not a flaw in the personality of any of the employees or managers there. Each to their own taste.
