Places API radius doesn't work in text search

[maestrolsj]

Environment details

Steps to reproduce

1. radius get ignored in the request below
2. It shows New York place data

Code example

const URI = encodeURI
(
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=%22best%20Internist%22&key=secret&fileds=place_id,formatted_address,name,rating,opening_hours/open_now,geometry,business_status,price_level,pagetoken,photos&language=en-us&location=52.516282,13.3131672&radius=5000
);

const { data } = await axios(URI, {
method: 'GET',
});

It works without the quotes. Radius is only a suggestion to "bias" and "prefer" specific results. The query in quotes seems to make it higher priority compared to location and radius.

Also, &fields= is not supported with text search.
