About

For more than 35 years, the restaurant Au Tarot has established itself as the best Mediterranean restaurant in Montreal. The restaurant Au Tarot is at once an Algerian restaurant, a Moroccan restaurant, and a Tunisian restaurant, as it marries all the cuisine of the Maghreb. To save you the effort of cooking, the restaurant offers free delivery of its fresh traditional dishes, cooked every day with care. Takeout meals are also available. Consult the chef for special delivery during events, weddings, film shoots, office parties, etc.

The chef-owner, Nouredine Kara, demanding and a perfectionist, does his own shopping by selecting the best fresh products from the market every day. He oversees everything: from the preparation of the semolina to the homemade production of the merguez; from the perfect composition of the tagines (which are undoubtedly the best in Montreal), to the warm and affable welcome of all customers. One often encounters many personalities from the world of arts, business, or politics at the restaurant, who are loyal fans of tagines, pastillas, and couscous, as well as the charm that reigns here.

Au Tarot: quality, calm atmosphere, smiles, and a warm welcome… nothing but happiness!

Meilleur place de Montréal pour le couscous, impossible d'en manger ailleurs! La cuisine est vraiment excellente & la convivialité de notre hôte est la cerise sur le gâteau. On a vraiment l'impression d'êtres reçu par un membre de la famille. J'adore! 5 étoiles bien mérité ⭐?

My friend & I enjoyed a delicious lamb & chicken tajines paired with Moroccan mint tea for lunch. Both were delicious! We plan to return with another friend soon.

A lovely Mediterranean & North African restaurant in the heart of Montreal. The atmosphere is warm & friendly, the food portions are excellent, & everything tastes fresh. The place is a bit small, but it feels cozy & quiet. Highly recommended.
