Skylar Williams, 32, of Wyandanch, was arrested around 12:30 a.m., Thursday, Dec. 5, at the restaurant in Massapequa, said the Nassau County Police.
According to detectives, Williams walked behind the bar inside the restaurant located at 5204 Sunrise Highway and attempted to pack food obtained from an all you can eat promotion.
Williams became upset after a 32-year-old male employee told her it was against restaurant policy to have her behind the bar.
Being upset, Williams picked up a bottle of liquor and then attempted to hit the victim.
Williams then pulled out a black knife and threatened to stab the victim as he prevented her from leaving with the bottle of liquor.
Williams along with another woman left the restaurant on foot and were seen heading in the vicinity of Unqua Road and Sunrise Highway.
Seventh Precinct officers responded and with the assistance of the Canine Unit located Williams in the rear yard of a Burton Lane residence.
After an investigation, Williams was placed into police custody without incident. The liquor bottle, knife, and several Oxycodone pills were recovered at the scene.
There were no injuries reported.
Williams was charged with robbery, menacing, criminal possession of a weapon, and criminal possession of a controlled substance.
She is being held for arraignment.
