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.

Fantastic experience if you like to try something different. Service was fast because of the set menu. Food was great but atmosphere is where La Khaima sets itself apart.

The ambience was very nice & the staff were great. The large table d'hote plate was 80% couscous which was a little disappointing, especially because it seemed that groups of 2 were given the same plate as our group of 3. Regardless, the food was delicious & I would recommend this place to someone who's looking to try Moroccan style food.

Service qui laisse à désirer. Peut-être à cause de l'achalandage... ustensiles & demandes expédiées & non effectuées. Habitudes nord américaines seraient peut-être une réponse. 😉

Great experience, authentic, & the food is not too little & not too much either. It was a greatly appreciated time. Also the interior design is magnificent, I would even go back just to see the interior design again.

J'y suis allée un vendredi soir avec une amie. Accueil correct, décor un peu plus défraîchi que sur les photos. Il faut retirer ses chaussures. En hiver, apportez des chaussettes si vous êtes frileux. Sièges très bas, évitez les jupes courtes &, si vous avez des problèmes de dos, cet endroit n'est pas pour vous.
La soupe est arrivée tiède, nous avons demandé qu'elle soit réchauffée, ce qui a été fait gentiment. Elle était plutôt quelconque, manquait de parfums. On ne goûtait ni le citron, ni les épices.
Pareil pour le hummos, j'en fais du meilleur.
Les plats de viande étaient plutôt bons (ce soir-là, boeuf aux dattes & poulet aux olives), mais les lentilles étaient totalement insipides. Un ou deux tronçons de carottes y baignaient, sans plus. On aurait aimé des courgettes, des aubergines, quelques légumes, quoi!
Bref, on ne va pas là pour la gastronomie, il y a bien meilleur à Montréal. Peut-être pour l'ambiance, mais même là, c'est un peu surfait. Je n'y retournerais pas.
