HOUSTON — A Houston restaurant is facing a suit from a customer alleging she was assaulted by one of their employees. 

Star Deshi Brown filed a complaint March 15 in Harris County District Court against Chacho's 6006 Westheimer LTD alleging negligence. 

Brown alleges that while at Chacho's located on Westheimer Road in Houston on March 24, 2019, she was assaulted by one of Chacho's employees and suffered "serious" injuries. Brown claims in her suit that Chacho's had "little or no meaningful security" at their premises and that they failed in their duty to protect her against "unreasonable and foreseeable risk of harm from criminal acts." 

Brown further claims that as a result of the attack, she suffered pain, mental anguish, lost wages and incurred medical treatment expenses. 

Brown seeks monetary relief of at least $250,000, interest and all other just relief. She is represented by David Mestemaker, Norman Straub and Jonathan Zumwalt of Mestemaker, Straub & Zumwalt in Houston.
