Restaurante Seen Lisboa

What Restaurante Seen Lisboa does

SEEN by Olivier Lisboa is a single-location rooftop restaurant and sky bar operating on the 9th floor of Hotel Tivoli Avenida Liberdade, on Avenida da Liberdade in Lisbon, Portugal. The venue combines a full-service restaurant offering European cuisine with Japanese influences (including a dedicated sushi bar with salmon, tuna, crab, lobster, eel, picanha, and toro preparations), a signature 360-degree central cocktail bar led by Chief Mixologist Lucas Jaques, and a walk-in rooftop sky bar with resident DJs performing Monday through Saturday evening. The interior was designed by architect Sidney Quintela in an Art Deco style inspired by 1930s glamour and The Great Gatsby, featuring a circular bar built around an artificial tree, Chesterfield armchairs, dark furniture, and dramatic lighting, with floor-to-ceiling glass providing panoramic views over Lisbon, the Tagus River, and São Jorge Castle.

The business model is primarily direct-to-consumer hospitality revenue across dinner service (Sunday-Thursday 6:30PM-1:00AM, Friday-Saturday 6:30PM-2:00AM), sky bar lunch (daily 12:30PM-3:30PM), bar service (extending to 2:00AM on weekends), and à la carte pricing with no fixed-price menus. Secondary revenue streams include personalized group events, brand activations, gift cards/vouchers, and participation in TheFork promotional campaigns (up to 40% discounts). The venue enforces a 14+ age restriction and an 'elegant chic' dress code, targeting tourists, corporate groups, local celebrants, and nightlife patrons. SEEN Lisboa opened in November 2018 as the second SEEN location worldwide and the first European expansion of the parent SEEN by Olivier brand, which originated in São Paulo in April 2017 at the Hotel Tivoli Mofarrej and now spans 8+ locations globally under the Olivier Restaurant Group, founded and led by Chef Olivier da Costa (30+ years of experience, 30+ restaurants created).
