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.

Tout n'a pas besoin d'être poli & "instagramable" pour être parfait, & cet endroit en est la parfaite incarnation. Menu si simple & pourtant si bon & enchanteur. Les trois accompagnements proposés avec le couscous sont délicieux. La soupe aux lentilles est à tomber à la renverse ! (Sérieusement, depuis quand des lentilles peuvent être si bonnes?)

Service & formule impeccables.
Plus de viande/légumineuses par portion de semoule serait apprécié.
Nous reviendrons certainement.

Très bon endroit, typique & l'idée du menu unique rend la chose encore plus sympa. Cadre très chaleureux avec un repas assis par terre, pieds nus. Je recommande! (Restaurant apportez votre vin)

C'était magique. Surtout, les 3 saveurs de couscous étaient parfumés, assaisonnées à la perfection, ben équilibrées. Saveurs originales jamais goutées ailleurs auparavant. Une très belle découverte.

Feels like you’re in someone’s home :) Brought my mama for her birthday & she said it was her favourite restaurant experience of all time. Staff were so lovely & it’s such a relaxing place to sit. Incredibly cozy, love the low down seating & taking your shoes off. Also love that you’re free to stay for as long as you’d like - no shuffling you out to get another table in. Very relaxed atmosphere & my favourite spot in Montreal

Dépaysement garanti & cuisine bonne ! Nous avons été très bien accueillis & avons passé une excellente soirée. Le plus pour nous qui sommes végétariens à été le couscous vegan.

It was maybe nice at some point.
- My lentil soup was delicious
- no Hummus
- same menu (beef-dattes / chicken-olive / vegan-okra) as the last time.
- I took chicken, it was too salty for me

A little bit expensive for what you get.
Nice on the first time, but repetitive & not as good the second time.

Will not go back

J'ai beaucoup aimé mon expérience, la nourriture était excellente & j'ai beaucoup apprécier de partager un grand plat de couscous avec ma famille. Un gros plus, c'est qu'il y avait du couscous de Manioc, un bonne option sans gluten!

L'ambiance du restaurant est chaleureuse & on se sent transportés au Maghreb le temps d'un repas.

Merci pour le service & le festin, je reviendrai, c'est certain!
