Glass exploded across the dining room as the pair scrambled from their booth, ducking for cover while stunned employees froze in place. The video shows staff staring in disbelief as jagged shards rained down, littering the floor in the immediate aftermath.

Santiago wrote on Instagram that the glass came "out of nowhere" right as she "bit into a delicious salmon slider."

"This is the second accident this month," Santiago said. "The fact that we walked away from both accidents ... maybe I'm just delusional right now but I'm just like, it's like I want to break down and cry, and I just can't."

"I'm just happy to be alive," the pair repeated throughout their video.

"This experience showed me who truly matters; life's too short for grudges or anger. Let go, forgive, live in the now, and cherish those around you - this could've been our last meal," Santiago wrote on her Instagram page.

"Grateful to see another day, walking away from the small stuff with a big purpose! Live bold, love deep, and make every moment count," Blackwood wrote on his Instagram page.

It was not immediately clear what led to the crash. Fox News Digital has reached out to the Houston Police Department for comment.
