Police said they are not looking for anybody else in relation to the matter.
"What we know at this time is that the alleged offender was known to one of the victims," Waikato West area commander Inspector Will Loughrin said.
"This was an incredibly traumatic event for those either dining or working at the restaurant and we'll ensure they receive any support required," Loughrin said.
"A scene examination will continue today and the community will notice an increased police presence in the area as we continue with our enquiries."
Emergency services were called to the restaurant on Campbell St, in Leamington, following a report of a grievous assault about 8.45pm on Wednesday, police said earlier.
