When everything goes black is that supposed to insinuate that he died? That would be dumb.

Other people think he didn't get killed right there but they were alluding that there were people there to assassinate him.
Couldn't the take-away from that scene simply be that, even when having a pleasant dinner with his wife and kids, the cost of Tony being in his particular line of work is never feeling nor ever really being totally secure.

What happens next isn't always the question and the scene could have just as easily been intended as a play on the "happily ever after" trope.
