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.

Expérience unique à Montréal, le décor & la nourriture sont à un très haut niveau. De plus le service est toujours de grande qualité avec des gens gentils & généreux de leur temps!
À garde en tête: plat unique à partager avec de la viande, pourrait être moins recommandé pour les végétariens même s'il y a toujours moyen de s'arranger.
Je suis allé 4 fois à la Khaima & je ne m'en lasse pas.

Unique experience in Montreal-both the setting & the food are of very high quality.
On top of that, the service is always excellent, with kind & generous staff who take their time with you!
Something to keep in mind: there's a single shared dish featuring meat, so it may be less suitable for vegetarians-although there's usually a way to make it work.
I've been to La Khaima four times & never get tired of it.View more

A great place to check out if you want a unique dining experience! The atmosphere was incredible & made you feel like you were abroad, the service was great as the people were very nice, & the food was incredible. Soup, large couscous blend enough for two, & a Moroccan mint tea at the end. I suggest going here if you'd like to try something new in the city!View more
