So I am able to get questions with specific tags, but still not able to get questions which have specific text and a specific tag.
For example if I want to get all the questions with text "api" in the title and they are tagged with rest, what should be the best API call I should use?
You can use the /search method with tagged and intitle
For example: http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/search?order=desc&sort=activity&tagged=rest&intitle=api&site=stackoverflow will search for questions on Stack Overflow with api in the title and that are tagged with rest.
The first two items I get when running this are:

For more advanced searches, use /search/advanced which basically replicates the on-site search function.
