...The food is DELICIOUS--we took our delightful server's suggestions and were blown away with the flavors... You should eat here. With a group so you can try more things.
The food and drinks are amazing!! The happy hour prices are very good- and happy hour includes not only drinks but some apps, too... I love coming here. The baklawa was on point. 5 stars. A must try!!!
Oh how I love Mama Ayesha's. I've been here a few times now and am always amazed by the incredibly kind staff( and always appreciate their knowledge of wine pairings, knowledge that I am lacking)...
Delicious! Authentic! Great atmosphere! Reasonably priced for a great dining experience! Will be our new favorite dining destination in D.C.!
This place is so good! We tried a little bit of everything falafel, fattoush salad, stuffed grape leaves, haloumi - everything was spot on! ...Very authentic! We will be back! And the decor and service was so charming!
