About

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 authentic dining experience that transports guests to North Africa with its warm, homey atmosphere and traditional Mauritanian-inspired decor. Many diners appreciate the communal, fixed-menu style, featuring generous portions of flavorful couscous, rich lentil soup, and fresh hummus, all served with genuine hospitality. The hibiscus and mint teas are frequently highlighted as refreshing standouts, and the overall vibe is consistently described as cozy, welcoming, and perfect for groups. While the seating style is unconventional and some visitors suggest checking the menu policy beforehand, most patrons find the experience memorable, heartfelt, and well worth repeating.

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.

Went there twice, & honestly the experience was really nice both times. The restaurant decor is amazing a mix of heritage Mauritania /North African style that feels warm & very welcoming. The seating is ground style, which makes it feel very homey & perfect for a relaxed group meal.

The food comes as a set sharing plate (couscous with chicken, vegetables, & lamb), which I personally really enjoyed all of them! Everything was flavorful & satisfying, & the portion was actually enough for about 3 people.

Don't miss the hibiscus it's really refreshing They also offer free tea after the food, which adds a nice traditional touch to the experience :)

Service was very good, & overall the place works really well for groups. It's the kind of restaurant you go to for both the food & the experience.

Large capacity, beautifully decorated restaurant. We ordered the mixed set menu to share. Flavourful & generous portions. Vegetarian fare available. Surprisingly busy for a freezing Monday night.

C'était la première fois que j'y suis allée & j'ai adoré. Non seulement la nourriture est délicieuse & abondante, mais l'expérience en soi est génial. Le décor est unique & authentique, j'ai oublié un instant que j'étais à Montréal! Le personnel est d'ailleurs très gentil. Le tout pour un prix très raisonnable, considérant la bonne quantité de nourriture qui est servie. Bref, je recommande à 100%.

Je suis allée avec de grandes attentes étant donné les belles photos publiées. Le service était attentionné & courtois. L'endroit est bien décoré & chaleureux., quoique il manque un peu d'entretien.. je crois que ce resto est très vieux. Ce qui m'a déçue c'est le plat unique alors que je m'attendais à choisir plein de repas différents. Cependant, il etait bon!
On mange tous la même chose. Je n'ai pas vu les repas publiés du tout. Soupe, coucous à partager avec poulet boeuf & légumes (que dans notre cas n'étaient que des poivrons). Le pain pita était aussi très froid & un peu dur.

The decor transports you to a totally different world, so warm & welcoming. The lentil soup was perfect, tasty & a little filling. The main dish (chicken & olive stew on top of couscous & beef & date stew on top of couscous) were so filling & freshly made. Absolutely worth it. 5/5 for everything. Loved it. Also, the service was super fast, we were served within 10 min & I'm so glad because I was starving & left satisfied
