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.

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 !

Éclairage agressant avec leurs quelques lumières trop blanches. Ça brise vraiment l'ambiance calme & chaleureux. Au contraire, ambiance froide du à une luminosité froide. Toilettes dégueulasses mixtes 🤮 je n'aurais pas aimé être une femme cette soirée là. Inacceptable & m'enlève l'envie d'y retourner. La propreté, elle est importante autant dans les cuisines que les toilettes. Alors imaginer. La nourriture correcte. Ça manque de viande. Trop facile de mettre full couscous & peu de viande. Somme toute... ça n'a plus le cachet d'avant. Comme si on surfait sur une réputation qui vient à mourir. Tic tac si rien ne change. Personnels agréables & amicales. Un peu long mais rien de trop dérangeant. PS aux proprio... tant qui a de la vie, il y a de l'espoir. Alors il est encore temps.
