AITHA for not wanting to celebrate Mother’s Day at this particular place

I’m 16 yrs old and it’s just me and my mom. I woke up early this Morning to get my mom flowers and card. We had made a reservation for an early dinner late lunch at a restaurant in Astoria queens (supposedly best Greek food) we live in upper manhattan. I also have homework and sports today so a lot I’m trying to get done while also celebrating my mom. I looked at Google maps and I realized in order to get there it’s like 50 mins subway/ferry seems like quite the commute. I also have anxiety about the subway so it’s not something I love doing especially with needing to transfer etc. I asked my mom if we can go to a Greek restaurant in Manhattan given that there are plenty of restaurants near us that are much more logistically available and she through a fit saying I always make Mother’s Day about me and she is making me feel like shit. I feel like her wanting to go to some random restaurant that is not very local is inherently trying to trigger a reaction in me. AITAH for not wanting to suck it up?
