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.

Absolute gem! La Khaima cuisine has a limited selection of items to chose from in the menu. Each item we ordered were absolutely delightful & tasted authentic. Best lentil soup & mint tea I've ever had.

Shout out to the owner that made our group feel welcome while visiting over the long weekend. He not only made our experience in Montreal unforgettable, but also offered incredible insight to the bagels through his baking background. Highly recommend visiting.

Went for the vegetarian option & what a disaster it was. Essentially I paid to have hummus & pita. Cannot recommend.

J'adore ce resto & je ne m'en lasse pas! La formule à 30$ par personne pour soupe (entrée), couscous (très copieux!!) & thé à la menthe, est très intéressante! En plus, c'est un apportez votre vin!
J'y vais plusieurs fois par année, c'est une place bien décorée, au service excellent, on s'y sent bien! 🤩

Le monsieur était super chaleureux. Les chaises à terre donnait une ambiance détendue, par contre les tables sont un peu basse. Il n'y a pas de ventilation, donc on se sent un peu étouffer. La nourriture était correcte apart pour les légumes qui n'étaient pas assez cuits.

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.
