I'll say it again as a manager of people for almost my entire working life, you really need to try to sit down with him in a calm environment, say after hours or at least when the restaurant is closed, and just be open with him and basically just ask him all your questions and concerns in a non confrontational way. He didn't want you to work for him all these years for nothing so he might have a side worth hearing. Many managers make employee decisions out of ignorance and/or fears which is why letting him hear your side might be beneficial to the both of you.
