My friends & I were visiting Montréal & we decided to look for a Moroccan restaurant. Café Ô Tajine was highly rated so we came here. One of my friends is a pescatarian, but she had no problem finding something to eat on the menu. My friends ate vegetable samosas & the falafel sandwiches. The falafel sandwich was in a wrap & it was served grilled like a panini. I had a vegetable platter with potatoes, carrots, onions, peas & green olives over couscous. It was delicious. My friends loved the falafel wraps & the samosas. We would definitely eat here again if we visit Montreal again.

The place is very small with seating for maybe 12-14 people. The staff was very friendly & welcoming. They chatted with us & by the time we were ready to leave, we were all laughing & joking with the staff. If you live in the area or visiting from out of town & you are looking for a small Moroccan restaurant with a casual atmosphere, i would recommend that you try Café Ô Tajine.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Café O Tajine in Montreal! The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the food was absolutely delicious. We especially enjoyed the tajine - boeuf braisé aux pruneaux - the beef was incredibly tender & perfectly complemented by the sweetness of the prunes. The pastilla was also a highlight, with its flaky pastry & rich, flavorful filling. To finish it all off, the thé à la menthe was refreshing & authentic, served just the way it should be. Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving traditional Moroccan cuisine!

Beautiful little Moroccan restaurant & cafe! The chicken sandwich is incredible, as are the selection of desserts, but the real surprise was the mint tea -- absolutely delicious! The family running this place are also so sweet & kind & welcoming. Will definitely be back again soon!

Je vais commencer par dire que je n'écris que très rarement des avis négatifs car je suis consciente que l'on fait tous de notre mieux, mais j'ai été très déçu. J'y suis allé pour mon anniversaire car j'avais énormément apprécié ma première expérience chez café Ô tajine. J'ai téléphoné avant de venir chercher ma commande qui était un peu plus de 60$. Après avoir récupéré ma commande, j'ai réalisé que les plats n'étaient pas du tout chauffés. Le monsieur nous a alors suggéré de mettre les plats au four à micro-ondes pendant 4 minutes. Si je voulais d'un plat congelé pour ma fête, je serai allé au IGA pour m'acheter un plat congelé. Si on achète dans un restaurant, c'est qu'on veut que notre plat soit déjà fait & PRÊT à être dégusté. C'est la moindre des choses. J'ai trouvé cela inacceptable, mais comme c'était mon anniversaire, j'ai laissé faire. Cela dit, la cuisine était très bonne, mais je n'y retournerai plus.

I really love this place, it's probably my favourite in Hochelega, narrowly beating out Le Pickup. The vibe in here is always so cozy & the food consistently hits. I live in the neighbourhood & always feel welcome in Café Ô Tajine. The owner is always around & he's extremely friendly & helpful. The service is stellar & the seating is very comfortable. Overall a total hidden gem, 10/10.

Cafe Tajine is like walking into the private home of a friend. The door from the street is often open & the small seating area is comfortably cushioned & designed in such a way as to make the guest/ clients feel warmly welcomed. I enjoy the food from North African countries, Algeria & Morocco. The Tajine here is authentically prepared but with a unique seasoning particular to the chefs recipe. It & the couscous is to die for! I highly recommend Cafe Tajine to anyone looking for a fine culinary experience.
