Located in the heart of Manama, La Fontaine Center of Contemporary Art is a historical monument dating back over 150 years. The compound is an old Bahraini house that has been completely restored and renovated by French artist Jean Marc Sinan. The unique property captures the grand essence of a European chateau, while retaining the charm of authentic Gulf Islamic architecture.
The vast terrace of their fine dining restaurant can seat up to 250 guests for special events like movie nights and art exhibition dinners and with the central fountain, still manages a peaceful and tranquil experience. The food menu has Mediterranean and Italian influences along with a few Asian dishes.
The current art exhibition is “A Thousand Fragments” by Iris Morata. Iris’s latest collection transforms wood’s natural imperfections into profound reflections on life’s complexities. Each piece (made out of small wood squares) invites you to shift your perspective, uncovering hidden depth and emotion as you walk around each piece.
As with all fine dining, the restaurant service was top notch. The art gallery closes at around dinner time but the staff was kind enough to open the gallery for viewing.
Out of all the food sampled, the Pan-seared Norwegian Salmon, Thai Sizzling Beef, and La Fontaine Chocolate Fondant were the favorites that stole the show!
Overall, great for a celebration with friends or a fancy date night!
===========================
Crispy Fried Calamari & Fried Lemon Slices served with Lemon Aioli
Pan-seared Norwegian Salmon with Mashed Potatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, served with Olive Oil dressing
Pan-seared Duck breast with thinly cut vegetables, basil & mashed potatoes, served with Star Anise sauce
Thai Sizzling Beef: Stir-fried Angus Beef in Oyster Sauce & Vegetables served on a sizzling plate with Jasmin rice
La Fontaine Chocolate Fondant: Baked Chocolate Fondant served with Freshly made Vanilla Ice Cream & Chocolate Sauce

I had the pleasure of visiting La Fontaine for the first time for a movie night, and it truly exceeded all expectations. From the seamless reservation process to the thoughtfully curated menu, everything was perfect. Although there were some dishes on the menu I didn’t eat, the staff was incredibly accommodating and made adjustments with ease, The service was warm and attentive, creating an atmosphere that felt both personal and inviting.
We were there to celebrate a dear friend’s birthday, and the chef’s thoughtful gesture of offering a complimentary cake made the evening feel even more special.
The setting itself was stunning—especially in the summer, with its serene charm—but I can only imagine how magical it must be in the winter, with the cozy, intimate ambiance. La Fontaine isn’t just a restaurant; it’s an experience that makes you feel truly cared for. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Not just a beautiful restaurant but also an art gallery. It’s a gem !! Located in the middle of busy old town . Really recommend the visit if you are in Bahrain . Food and service were excellent. The fountain in the middle and decoration is amazing

It is a beautiful place, but I felt service was lacking … they were not ready although I had a reservation. Obviously the server was new. I hoped things are more controlled, especially during Covid. Did not feel all that safe and comfortable. However, my main course was very good. Drinks and salad and soups were not impressive. Appetizers were good. Overall, good, but it did not meet my expectation.

The entrance door was not clear. We search for it.
The table has no salt. Black pepper or tissue.
We ordered Asparagus soup. Was excellent.
Salad super. Chicken breast is fantastic.
Over all super and we will be back again.

Fabulous setting, very good food served by friendly welcoming staff.
Historic building full of interesting features, the centrepiece, obviously, a great fountain.
Felt like a real treat

It’s a beautiful relaxing place. The art & history of the place is divine and worth having a look around before sitting around the fountain to enjoy the surrounding scenery with the sound of the fountain.

Silly “museum” … basically an old abandoned house with a few admittedly nice pieces of art. Don’t let the webpage elevate your expectations too much. The galleries are missing basics like lighting and signage.

A great tranquil place right in the middle of Manama. Very private and quiet away from the hustle and bustle outside. Portions were perfect and all tasted nice. All ingredients were fresh. It’s a good place to celebrate any special occasion.
