3rd Floor Brooklyn — Restaurant in New York

I really hate writing this review, but I had been wanting to stop by this place for awhile and finally had the opportunity to go today. My mistake before I went in was that I should have seen the signs about not taking pictures but I didn’t. I was taking a picture to send to my friend and was scolded by the owner to which I profusely apologized immediately. However what really bothers me is that she kept making remarks especially in front of other customers, and I didn’t know what to do except keep apologizing?

I wanted to sit inside and enjoy my food (no frills authentic Japanese onigiri, very tasty) but there wasn’t any seating and overall atmosphere felt weird after I ordered.
