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.

The staff in this restaurant were amazingly accommodating & friendly. Food portions are seemingly endless (we had to leave food on the plates & they STILL offered more). The chef treated us to an amazing tea from his home town in Africa & the atmosphere was perfect. Definitely a place worth visiting in large groups.

Truly amazing place,

Had my family hear for a post- wedding celebration. They served more food than we could eat & even offered more without extra charge of whatever we wanted.
Atmosphere was beautiful & the food was authentic, complete with Hibiscus tea from the chef's home town.

I will definitely be returning in future.

Malheureusement, je trouve que ça se dégrade. Je n'étais pas allé depuis quelques mois, c'était moins généreux & un peu plus cher. Dommage !

What a wonderful meal! As an indecisive person, I love the setup of the menu. Hummus, soup, & a choice of three entrées (or you can ask for a big playter of all of them. My boyfriend is Berber & said our food is as authentic as it gets! The cook was welcoming & treats everyone like family. The food cooked is very labour intensive & done to perfection. We will return on the regular.
Warning to tall people: the tables are low to the ground & can be a bit clumsy to sit on. My bf is 6ft & managed though!
Highly recommend!
