About us

At la Khaїma (nomad tent), at 142 Fairmount in Mile End, we enter into a nomadic world, a journey through colors, flavors and sensations. Once inside, African music accompanied by a rich fragrance emanating from the kitchen complete the multi-sensory experience that transports you to the Sahara. Couples can enjoy an intimate setting while large groups benefit from Moroccan salon comfort, eating from a long, low table.

The founder, of Mauritanian origin, greets guests and his joie-de-vivre warms the atmosphere. The cuisine is African with a nomad touch. Dishes are prepared with local products following the “Slow Food” concept, creating uniquely spiced tajines that offer an unparalleled taste experience. In accordance with the tradition of the desert, guests share large platters tasting all the flavors on offer, with enough to satisfy even the most demanding of appetites.

Come discover La Khaima’s unique refreshing drink made from the hibiscus flower and their mint tea. These marvelous drinks, in addition to mezzes are available by day at Khaїma cafe, 148 Fairmount. It is a meeting
place where you can enjoy comedy nights, music and film screenings. Follow us on Facebook to discover upcoming events.

Review Summary

La Khaïma Cuisine Nomade offers a unique and immersive dining experience that transports guests to a warm, authentic North African setting. Many diners appreciate the communal atmosphere and the traditional, home-style Mauritanian dishes, such as the flavorful couscous, lentil soup, and refreshing hibiscus tea, which are served in generous, shareable portions. The hospitality is frequently highlighted as a standout feature, with the owner and staff often going out of their way to explain the rotating, fixed-menu concept and ensure everyone feels welcome. While the ground-style seating and lack of a traditional menu are central to the nomadic vibe, the restaurant remains a beloved local gem for those seeking an intimate, genuine, and flavorful culinary journey.

Merci encore.

An unique restaurant experience ❤?
Perfect for a big group because the food is served on a big shareable platter.
There is no menu, you trust the chef. Every day, the menu changes. You always get a base (I got couscous & I think there's also rice) & always 3 different sauces (I got beef, chicken & a vegan option).
You remove your shoes before sitting & the seats are low cushioned benches.

Nous avons été très bien accueilli par le propriétaire & les serveurs. Bonne nourriture authentique dans l'ensemble .
Le seul bémol; on nous informe une fois assis du menu table d'hôte à 38$ par personne. Donc, on ne peut pas faire de choix selon nos goûts & le prix qu'on veut payer. Un peu de décevant….

Absolutely amazing food, drinks, & tea! We loved the service as the chef & owner made it his duty to explain the menu to us & made it a very personal experience. The atmosphere was incredible. From the moment you walk in, you feel that you're transformed into Morocco with the authentic decor, furniture, & even the seating. We thoroughly enjoyed the culinary experience & cannot wait to return for another visit to what is now our favorite Moroccan restaurant.
