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.

A delightfully different kind of restaurant experience! From taking off one's shoes (which I like, myself) to the universal offering of the menu, be ready for a different experience than the run-of-the-mill restaurant. There is a set menu, with three choices of dishes to accompany the main meal on couscous the night I was there. It was recommended to have a little of all three, which I did. There is no other menu! The food was absolutely delicious! I wish I lived closer to Montreal & could come back again!

Repas sympathique, sans plus.
La nourriture était bonne mais rien à faire saliver les babines!
Position très inconfortable pour manger. Service à peu près. Soupe tiède. Dessert ordinaire.

Great exprience, will go back & bring more people. The staff were great & attentive. Decor that transports you. If you are on the taller side avoid skirt, unless it's long the seating is very low.

Le repas était copieux. Tout le monde a apprécié les saveurs.
Les serveurs étaient un peu "perdus", leur service étant inégal & un peu brouillon.
Nous avons tout de même vraiment apprécié & pourrions revenir avec plaisir.

Le repas était excellent & nous a permis de gouter à des plats typiques (poulet, agneau, légumes, coucous..). Le service était rapide & chaleureux & l'ambiance très agréable.

Repas très apprécié de tous les convives.

Si vous aimez la semoule de blé, c'est pour vous. Une montagne de semoule & quelques morceaux de viandes avec des carottes. C'est ce que vous aurez pour 25$ par personne. Avec une soupe de lentilles trop cuites en entrée. Belle marge de profit. Bancs inconfortables & décor moins joli que sur le site web. Je ne recommande pas ce restaurant.
