Are the following sentences correct and natural?

I'm searching a restaurant for you. I find this restaurant that is suitable for you and the food's quality is much better. I strongly recommend you can try this one.

No. "I'm searching a restaurant for you" would mean that you are attempting to help me by finding something that I had lost in a restaurant, perhaps my keys for instance. What you are probably trying to say is "I'm searching FOR a restaurant for you."

In English we don't recommend that someone CAN do something. We recommend THAT someone do something. The THAT is optional and may perfectly correctly be omitted
