The victim told police that the younger woman attempted to assault her and threw the toothpick holder at her head. She said she did not need medical help and was the only person assaulted.
Officers spoke with the person who had to escort the two women out of the business, and she said that when they left, the younger woman said she was going to 'air out the place' with her gun.
The complainant told police the two women did not return, and employees said they left in a black BMW.
Police were told a reservation was made with the two women, three children, and another man.
The incident at Texas Roadhouse happened a day before a large fight at J. Alexander's restaurant nearby in the Wolfchase area. That disturbance had customers hiding under tables after someone reportedly spotted a gun.
