Our Story.
From Baghdad to Bahrain — honouring a living heritage, one dish at a time.
Eng. Asaad Al-Jubouri
Engineer Asaad Al-Jubouri carries a deep passion for detail — the same passion that accompanied him from the world of engineering to the world of taste. For him, food was never merely a business — it was a sincere act of transporting the culture and generosity of Baghdad to Bahrain.
With the mindset of an engineer who believes that quality is built, not encountered by chance, he designed 'Kahramana Baghdad' to be more than just a restaurant: a space where Iraqi authenticity meets modern taste and refined Bahraini hospitality.
Today, Al-Jubouri stands behind every detail presented to the guest — from the selection of ingredients to the style of presentation — ensuring that every visit is a true reflection of his passion, vision, and respect for his guests' taste.
More Than a
Name —
A Legacy of Wisdom
In Baghdadi memory, 'Kahramana' wasn't just a story told; it was a symbol of acumen, generosity, and victory through wisdom. The famous statue of Kahramana pouring oil on the thieves stands as one of Baghdad's most iconic landmarks — a testament to cleverness, bravery, and justice.
From this profound meaning, 'Kahramana Baghdad' was born — a restaurant that evokes the authentic spirit of Baghdad, presented in a contemporary style befitting today's taste.
Where Heritage Meets Mastery
The Iraqi Flavor
At 'Kahramana Baghdad', we craft an integrated experience that begins with the finest Iraqi breakfast — bagila bil dihin, kahi, and gaimer — through to grand lunch feasts of authentic lamb tashreeb and Baghdadi masgouf. We take the secrets of inherited cuisine and carefully blend them with the elegance of Bahraini hospitality to create a flavor that combines the authenticity of the past with the sophistication of the present.
From Baghdad to Your Table
Every dish served is an invitation to a sensory journey that starts from the old alleys of Baghdad, crosses time, and reaches your table in Bahrain. Here, meals aren't just served; a story of generosity, passion, and uniqueness is presented, making our guests feel at home.
Most restaurants serve food as inherited recipes.
We craft an experience that bridges

One Heart
Today, Kahramana Baghdad operates two branches in Bahrain — Riffa (Hajiyat) and Muharraq (Galali) — each with its own character but united by the same commitment to excellence. We serve over 100 dishes, from our iconic masgouf to fresh-baked samoon, from royal quzi to hand-rolled dolma.
