What do you think it feels like to float 50 meters above the ground while enjoying a first-class menu? The Dinner in the Sky concept takes experiential dining to a completely new level – where adrenaline meets indulgence.
A crane, a platform, and breathtaking views over the dream city of Lisbon – this could be your next dinner experience. To help you imagine what this extraordinary event is really like, we’ve put together all the key details for you.
At the Dinner in the Sky Location in Lisbon
Even the drive to the venue already sets the mood – you can feel that something special is coming, and you just know an incredible view is waiting for you. Once you arrive, you’re welcomed by a long entrance area lined with photo walls – the perfect spot to capture the moment.
At the bar, you’ll be served a homemade aperitif, and while you wait, you can already look outside and catch your first glimpse of the crane and the platform. The platform features 22 seats – one of them will be yours. In the center, there’s space for the kitchen. It’s a small restaurant floating in the sky.
Welcome at 50 Meters Above Ground
What’s included in the price is the 360-degree panoramic view. So you don’t have to worry about your seat. Once all guests have arrived, you’ll be invited to choose your own place. Only during boarding and fastening your seatbelt will assistance be provided, so you’re perfectly safe for the most exciting and delicious flight of your life.
All strapped in? The service team is ready. Even before take-off, your glasses are already filled, and you can feel that mix of excitement and anticipation building. Through walkie-talkies, the team stays in constant contact with the crane operator – and then, slowly, it begins. A glance and a nod set the platform in motion. Suddenly it hits you: you’re really in the air. The music kicks in and the ground slowly gets smaller beneath you while the view becomes more and more breathtaking. A feeling of wonder, freedom, and pure adrenaline takes over.
The First Taste Above the Clouds
Many people look for a restaurant in Lisbon with an open kitchen to experience the show – and at the same time enjoy a great view. Here, you get both. At 50 meters above the ground, you watch the kitchen team prepare your first course with calm, precision, and passion.
A juicy prawn in crispy sago, served on an exotic carpaccio. All of this while enjoying good conversations with your seat neighbors, atmospheric music, a warm summer breeze – and of course the endless view over the city that never gets boring. Cheers and bom apetite!

Fish & Chips above the sea
It’s impressive to see how well-coordinated the team works at this height. As soon as the first course is served, the next one is already being prepared right in front of your eyes.
But it’s not just about the food – it’s also time for a change of perspective. Suddenly, the platform slowly starts to rotate, revealing a different side of Lisbon, while the sun warms your face. The atmosphere among the guests keeps lifting, and you’re right in the middle of it. Can you imagine that?
Back to reality, the second course arrives in a bronze-colored shell. You open your plate yourself and discover a traditional Portuguese seafood and fish cataplana, slowly cooked in a rich aromatic broth. Topped with crispy salt chips – a perfect second course to enjoy your dinner in Lisbon with an ocean view.
Dining Between Sky and City
By now, everyone has gotten used to the height and is fully enjoying the experience. You quickly realize how special it is when an experience like this brings people together and creates a shared sense of joy.
For the main course, the music is turned up a little, and if you have a song request, the team is happy to play it. Meanwhile, the kitchen prepares the roast beef: tender and perfectly pink, served on a cauliflower mousseline with seasonal baby vegetables and an oriental sauce. Watching it being plated, you once again realize how perfectly synchronized everything works in such a small space. Every movement is precise. And yet, there is no chaos – you, as the guest, always remain at the center and are taken care of in the best possible way.
One Last Look, One Last Bite
If you ever feel like you’ve had enough of looking left and right, there’s one final highlight before dessert: the sky above you. A small lever at your seat allows you to lean back easily – and suddenly you’re lying there, looking straight up into the sky. This is how you experience Dinner in the Sky in Portugal in its purest form. While you’re enjoying that moment, the final course is already being prepared: a delicate chocolate mousse dome with pistachio sand – a true chocolate promise as the grand finale.
And dessert is also the perfect moment to celebrate something special. If you have a special occasion, the team will gladly arrange it for you. The birthday guest of the evening, for example, receives a cake with glowing candles and a birthday song – a truly special moment above the rooftops of Lisbon. While you enjoy your dessert, the atmosphere reaches its peak, and you hopefully take in the last golden rays of the evening sun.

See you next time at your Dinner in the Sky Experience
Once the last bite is finished, it’s time to head back down to the ground. The music accompanies the descent, and you barely notice how smoothly the landing happens.
It’s truly an experience that stays with you – full of joy, adrenaline, and incredible food in Lisbon. And it’s not really a goodbye, but rather a: welcome back next time at Dinner in the Sky – maybe in another city. You can choose Dinner in the Sky again, discover a new menu, and enjoy the view over the rooftops of some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
