Count me among those who would get up from the table, notify the management, and wait out of knife range to see what develops. I would at least try to position myself so that I had him between me and a safe backstop, if possible. No way I would touch my weapon before an overt aggressive move was made.
My question is, do you tell the restaurant management that you have a permit and are armed? If the cops are called, it may be important for them to be told that you are not one of the bad guys.
I asked a co-worker about this and he said he'd pull the fire alarm. What do you think?
