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.

Je suis allé à ce restaurant pour un anniversaire, nous étions un groupe de 20 personnes & avons été très bien reçus Quand on y entre, on enlève nos chaussures, & on prend place assis sur un petit banc sur des tables basses. Le serveur & cuisinier, Tommy, vient nous voir & nous explique le fonctionnement du restaurant: C'est un menu fixe de plats végétariens ou de viande à partager qui sont tous plus delicieux les uns que les autres. On commence avec un hummus, ensuite un plat principal puis un dessert & un excellent thé marocain qui est servi de manière traditionnelle! Je recommande surtout pour le service & la qualité des plats! Demandez Tommy pour une super expérience.

Decor & ambiance is fun. The food was average. The lentil soup was a little blend, couscous was extremely salty, tea was way too sweet. Service was impeccable.

Fournir des babouches ou autres pantoufles aurait été très apprécié car après avoir pataugé en chaussettes sur les tapis mouillés par la neige fondue, il fallait se rechausser & affronter les -15°. Avec les pieds mouillés. Dommage ! Sinon, la serveuve était super & le repas excellent.

The seats may not be the most comfortable for anyone with a bad back, but the service & food & atmosphere are incredible. There appears to be mostly a small set menu, of which included a soup & pita as a starter, lovely hibiscus juice & a tea to end the courses. Great restaurant, I will definitely return!

Un des meilleurs restaurants de Montréal. La nourriture est incroyable, les portions sont très généreuses (le serveur nous en a rapporté sans frais additionnels), le service est impeccable & très chaleureux & l'atmosphère nous transporte réellement dans le nord de l'Afrique. J'y retournerais n'importe quand.

Une expérience dépaysante, comme sous une tente venue du désert marocain, du thé, de la soupe, du couscous à tomber à la renverse... Bref! Bienvenue au Maroc Québécois !
