    As usually in the US the facade doesnโ€™t impress but inside thereโ€™s a really nice and quite big restaurant with a soothing vibe. The food was good, spicy but lacked some freshness, vegetables and also some kind of gravy, marinade to juice things up a little bit. Like the eggplant starter, the best dish of the day.

    The food is delicious- beautiful presentation. The Maqlooba and Musakhan are some of the best Iโ€™ve ever had. I asked for white meat after receiving my meal with dark meat any they brought me an extra chicken piece for free (very generous and welcoming). The place dates back to the 1960s you can read more about Mama Ayeshaโ€™s story at the entrance.

    Grรฉรขt atmosphรจre and ambiance, we enjoyed the dessert dishes the most, the rice pudding with the rose water was excellent. We also had some mezza plates to share, and some entrรฉes . My mom loved the garlic sauce, and I particularly liked the Kibbah.

    I visited Mama Ayeshaโ€™s for a friendโ€™s birthday and it was a great experience. The food and ambiance were great. Every dish had the perfect amount of seasoning and flavor. We went on a Tuesday night, and there was only one other party dining while we were there. Overall, the experience was great besides our waiter who was a bit rude. He walked away from us while we were ordering on multiple occasions which rubbed me the wrong way. Either way, itโ€™s worth a visit. We payed around $300 for a group of 8
