Looking for thoughts for wiring method in restaurant

This is a question and not a comment. Can you use the 100 occupancy count to determine a place of assembly? Many of the definitions state that not less than 50 people gathered for various reasons such as eating and drinking.

The construction type should be determined before the job starts. I would think that the building plans for the addition would require a review.

Construction type has been determined for the case in my OP. The quote in your post was my response to another situation.

edit: Builidng codes use the 50 person cutoff in the Assembly use group for certain criterion. For example, in MA, an assembly use group with a capacity of 50 or over needs an annual "106" inspection.
