Google seems to be testing a new local search feature that is categorized as "Places people are talking about." It shows you local restaurants with social media information, like posts from Instagram and Facebook, in a carousel format. These carousels contain short videos from those social platforms.

This was spotted by Khushal Bherwani who posted this screenshot on X:
