Your friends need to stand up to assholes like that. If they are scared to admit their relationship in front of the public, they will have a terrible time carrying on with it. They will be different people inside and outside the house.
so it's the 2 men who need to change their behavior and not the homophobe?
what is wrong with not wanting to cause a scene or be confrontational?

I'd say it's safe to say the guy was a raging homophobe. If two people (gay or straight) want to hold hands in a restaurant, why should I care? I hold my wife's hand in public, but that's as far as it goes. I certainly don't go for the graphic PDAs like sucking her tonsils or something, though.
I'm sure we'll now hear a slew of "OMFG TEH FAGZORS MUST DIE!"-type comments in this thread, though since you mentioned gay people. :roll:

Why does it make him a homophobe? I'm not saying what he did was right or anything but I am tired of anyone who is against the idea of homosexuality being branded as AFRAID of homosexuals.

I think they are afraid of getting the crap beat out of them. Not ashamed, just scared. And they should be in some situations.
They are in a public place not in a KKK meeting. Unless they get surrounded by skinheads swinging chains, I can see no situation in which they should be scared. And I am not saying that they should go firing all cylinders on seeing assholes like that. They could have:
a) changed seats
b) told the man to fvck off nicely
c) Calmly talked about the special relation they have and if the man still was still acting up, goto point b) again.
In your opinion, which is more offensive: holding hands in public or screaming on the top of your vioce" OMG LOOK AT THESE FAGS!!1!!1!" I know which one I would say. Tell your friends to relax, they are not commiting a crime.

Your friends should have started "sucking each other's tonsils out" 😀 That'll learn him. If he assaults them--LAWSUIT!
