Over dit restaurant

romantisch
Juweeltje in de wijk
Goed voor speciale gelegenheden

Founded by Ayesha Abraham, Mama Ayesha's opened for business in 1960. We are a family owned and operated restaurant serving authentic Arabic cuisine. Enjoy a fresh fattoush salad, some hummus, or some falafel to open you appetite. Main dishes include lamb, chicken, and beef dishes cooked over our charcoal grill. Or try one of our stuffed specialties such as our stuffed yellow squash or grape leaves. Plenty of vegetarian as well as vegan options also available.

With dishes prepared daily from scratch you can be sure you're getting the closest thing to home cooking. We are glad to be moving forward into our 5th decade of serving the Washington, DC area. Many of our guests can tell you that when you’re here at Mama Ayesha’s, you’re family!

Went there with family a few days ago and everyone loved the food. The restaurant was empty at the time because we were there on a Friday at 2:30 pm. I've been here several times before and the food and service is always good. Definitely recommend.

Service was slow even though they were not particularly busy. Food was mediocre at best. Based on reputation I expected much more.

We brought our one and three yr old kids with us on a family date night. The staff was very friendly and they have awesome round booths to keep kids in the seat. Or you could get hi chair but the booth was awesome! Loud enough in restaurant so we didn’t feel like we were bothering anyone. Kids loved the food and so did we!

The service was pretty awful. I would actually rank it terrible but the waiter told us it was first two weeks on the job. When I got to the restaurant, I was waiting for the rest of my party to join so I sat the bar. No one came to give me a drink menu, asked if I wanted a drink until I requested it. The family at the front of the hostess stand seemed too busy talking to each other. Once we got seated, the waiter did not know half the menu. The menu lists "fresh orange juice" and when we asked to confirm it was fresh, he came back and said no. Uhmm okay? Then when we went to order our meals, we all wanted to substitute our rice for yogurt or veggies and the waiter said that was no possible since the rice was mixed it. When we received our meals, the rice was on the side. It was such a complicated meal and unfortunately a very confusing experience. Will not be returning.

Everything was delicious. My husband had the lamb shank, our 2 daughters and I enjoyed a series of small plates. For dessert the four of us ordered 2 baklava samplers. They were beautifully presented, delicate and perfectly sweetened. The service was attentive with being obsequious. My husband said it was the best Father’s Day dinner ever. We could hear ourselves talk!
