Mama Ayesha's
Our founder, Mama Ayesha Abraham, was born in the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem in the late 1800's. After running 24 farms by the age of 21, she came to the United States in the late 1940's and was hired as a cook for the Syrian Embassy. After toiling at the embassy and working at several DC restaurants, she opened her first restaurant in 1960, Calvert Cafe. The booming cafe served ambassadors, foreign dignitaries, and US officals. Known as the Calvert Cafe until Mama Ayesha's death in 1993, the building was renamed in her honor in 1994. Now run by her nephews and great nephews, although Mama Ayesha is no longer with us, her memory and recipes remain. Open Mon-Thu, Sun 12pm-10pm; Fri-Sat 12pm-11pm.
