'We're paying for our food just like everyone else, and she told us that we are the rudest people,' Stewart can be heard saying in the video.
Goodman confronts the women, saying: 'I've got real good friends who are black, and I love them.'
'We never said anything about colour,' Stewart responds.
Goodman proceeds to tell the women they are being too loud, at which point Shaw responds: 'In your opinion. Let me show you my money. It's just as green as yours.'
'Why are you so stupid 'n******?' Goodman says to Shaw as she leaves their table.
'Do you call your black friends [that]?' the women question her.

She expressed regret at not asking restaurant management to intervene to tell the women to be quiet.
However she refused to apologize to the group, telling WRAL-TV: 'I'm not going to say I'm sorry to them because they kept pushing at it.'
When questioned on why she used the word 'n*****' she said it was because the group had 'forced her into it'.
Lakesha Shaw was the woman who Goodman had addressed the offensive word to, while her friend Chanda Stewart filmed the tirade on her mobile.
'I don't care how you feel like we should have been acting... nothing justified you to come to my table and call me a stupid n*****,' Shaw said.
Shaw and Stewart said they don't plan to return to the restaurant, and said the manager should have intervened to stop the dispute.
MailOnline has contacted Bonefish Grills for comment.
