FANR Restaurant is a contemporary dining venue located at Manarat Al Saadiyat, Saadiyat Cultural District. Managed by Troon Golf, the world’s leading luxury brand golf management company, the restaurant offers international cuisine in a bistro-style setting.  

The menu features a unique blend of European, Mediterranean, Indian and traditional Arabic dishes.  It also offers an extensive range of delicious sandwiches, cakes and pastries.   

Simon Barber, Executive Chef for FANR Restaurant and hawksbill restaurants, is responsible for overlooking the culinary development for both outlets and is tasked with designing new menus that reflect each outlets signature concept. “I’m really looking forward to working with the team at both FANR Restaurant and the hawksbill restaurant, we have some fantastic ideas in the pipeline that will definitely put both outlets on the city’s culinary map.

I want to create dishes that are imaginative and tasteful, but also simple and pleasing to the eye as well as focus on the way the food is delivered not just how it is presented,” said Chef Barber.
