Your clue is in the word "variable" that you used.  The "variables" for a 
Django model are its fields; so what you are looking for is a value stored 
in your model's field.

e.g. 

service = 
food.objects.get(restaurant-name__icontains='burger-place').values_list('type_of_service',
 
flat=True)

This assumes that your Django "Food" model has a  field called 
'type_of_service'.

Another way to do this would be to first get the restaurant object:

place = food.objects.get(restaurant-name__icontains='burger-place')

Then you can more get to the fields that you need quite easily:

print(place.type_of_service)
print(place.product)

But you may need to think about your database design to ensure the right 
data is being stored in the right models/fields e.g.
