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.

Absolutely amazing experience, gentleman who runs the restaurant was an absolute pleasure to deal with, offers gluten free & vegan options for his meals. Some of the best gf couscous I've ever had.

Highly recommend the hibiscus drink he serves mid summer.

It was Fantastic! They were really sweet & patient with my daughter & the food was sooo good! I am usually a picky eater but their soup & couscous were delicious😍 especially the beef made with date sauce👌 The tea was good too but just a bit too sweet, so if you dont like your tea too sweet, remember to ask for no sugar. Really worth the price 🙌🏼 Also they dont have a menu they always serve the same thing,a small bowl of lentil soup for each as an entree with pita, then a big plate of couscous with sweet beef, chicken & veggies to share between everyone (the plate on the picture was big & for 5 persons). Finally tea & a little piece of some type of coconut'cake' I dont remember what they called it😅 anyways So so good ❤? would recommend to go before 8 pm on weekends because it fills up fast

Parfait ! On était 10 & on a été servis comme des pachas! Soupe, couscous mixte avec petit thé. Délicieux, j'avoue avoir une petite touche pour la viande aux dattes! Excellent! On a adoré ! C'est à volonté on a pu se faire resservir de couscous ! Je recommande

Highly recommended. I went alone but the restaurant has cultivated a genuine convivial ambiance. The food was beyond amazing, as was the maghrebi mint tea after the meal.

A resto with a tasting menu is always a good idea. Transport your tongue to the rugged terrain of the Sahara with this Mauritanian restaurant that offer a wide array of flavors while maintaining originality that still caters to a North American palate. I highly recommend the baobab & hibiscus beverage. I intend to return here often. You feel like you're back in Mauritania- hold the slavery of course!

We were pleasantly surprised. The food was amazing .. my boys loved the 3 types of couscous served with the lentil soups (chicken with olives, beef with dates, & veggies with chick peas). The tea was sweet & very minty. We highly recommend this place for a tasty dinner & cozy time. Thank you!

Mes papilles gustatives n'ont jamais été autant satisfaite que dans ce restaurant. Les agrumes de la soupe aux lentilles a réussi à charmer mon odorat & mon palet ainsi qu'à excité mon appétit pour le plat principal. Le couscous est un phénomène provenant tout droit du ciel. Les portions sont colossale & la diversité des types de couscous réussi à fournir un plat complet & équilibré. Chapeau bât à l'équipe du restaurant Khaïma, je ne jure qu'en votre nom maintenant & vous recommande à tout mon entourage.

We started with a lentil soup, which was super creamy & tasty. We had two large plates of couscous (one vegetarian & one with meat) as the main course & both were delicious. The portions are very generous. We were a large group of 12 people & there were leftovers. Service was also great & the hibiscus tea served at the end was refreshing. I recommend this place !
