You could to use LatLngBounds constructor method. This would help you to restrict the search for a rectangular area (But this would not necessarily restrict the search for one country but all the countries in that rectangular area). Or you could use the Google Places Web Service API as shown here

For more explanation please refer to this answer here

For search place of current city you have to set LatLongBounds to PLaceAutocomplete like. see my ans here Google Places API not returning suggestions based on location
