Answer
This is a very good question. This will come down to the severity of your disability along with how recognized it is and the ability of of the restaurant to reasonably accommodate you.
Unless there is some health code rule against it( I doubt this) then restaurant could have given you plasticware as they had it.
The key is whether your condition is recognized as a disability. If it is, they have unfairly discriminated against you. If it is not, then unfortunately, they can legally behave as they did.
Speak to a discrimination attorney in your area.
