Yep, using "if and when" implies you think you will one day return, but also indicates you realize that might not happen.
Just using "if" implies you are far more uncertain about whether you will return or not.

They are very similar.
"If and when" implies you would like to come back to this city.
"If" suggests you may happen to come back one day.

Ohh, I got it!! Thank you for your quick answer!
Can I think "if and when" means that we are almost sure we'll come back, but not sure when we'll come back?

The overall meaning and understanding is that if you return you will go back to the restaurant.
Either and both are fine and correct, using when is more specific.
