I was informed, via public records request, this guy's name is Harold Priest. I have a number of records requests that I sent out regarding this issue.

So I read/know/have been told that the restaurants policy is no pictures/videos/recordings yet I have no expectation of privacy, did I get that right?

So between me and the government I have to show I have an expectation of the right to remain silent before I can be silent, I have to show an expectation of religious freedom to be religious, I have to show the government I have an expectation of not being required to house troops before I can refuse to house troops. did I also get that right?

Yes, you got that right. All the restaurant can do, policy or no policy, is demand that the person making the recording leave. They can't seize the recording or the recording device,and they can't stop the person from continuing to record as long as the person is leaving in an expedient manner.

When it comes to photography and videography chances are that if you can get to a location unhindered then you can legally record what is there or can be seen from there. There are exceptions, but most of them are fairly obvious like the stalls in public bathrooms.
