The Best Restaurants in Adams Morgan, According to Eater Editors | Eater DC

"As a pioneer of Middle Eastern cuisine in D.C., Mama Ayesha Abraham opened this restaurant in the 1960s. Since then, it has grown into a neighborhood favorite and an icon for its famous presidential mural that features leaders since Dwight D. Eisenhower — minus President Donald Trump — painted on its exterior wall. Mouzat (braised lamb shank) is among the must-order dishes." - Missy Frederick
