If I were with someone at the restaurant, I'd ask that person if he/she would pay and I would offer to pay them back, if I were going to pay in the first place.
If I were by myself, I would explain it to the waiter or cashier. I suspect the restaurant has some sort of policy about this. For example, one time I forgot to bring my money when I filled up my car with gas. They wrote down my license plate or something and how much I owed and said I could return and pay within some period of time (24 hours, I think) or they would turn it into the police. I came back and paid, and nothing bad happened. If you just come clean, it's not that embarrassing. And I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the first time it ever happened.

If I was with someone I'd ask the other person to wait there while I'd go get my wallet. If I was alone I'd ask my husband to bring my wallet if that was possible, and if not I'd leave a driver's license or something like that at the restaurant while I'd go for my wallet. If none of those were possible I'm not sure what I'd do, I'd probably have to make some agreement with the staff.

give them your drivers license, until you went home for money.
