Demirtas said the two men pulled out firearms and demanded watches and it all happened very fast.
“There were bags and laptops on the table but they just wanted the watches [and phones].
“They took the watches and, as they took phones from on top of the table, a gunshot went off by accident.
“The bullet just missed the head of one of our customers, so he was very lucky,” he said.
The robbers made off with four luxury watches and two cellphones.
According to Demirtas, the robbers got into a silver BMW which had been parked at a nearby petrol station.
Demirtas has called on the government to urgently intervene in the crime in the country, specifically robberies at restaurants.
Gauteng police could not immediately comment on the matter.
