Table Of Contents
Rubro Restaurant
The Rubro restaurant in Avenida (there is another in Campo Pequeno) offers private room options for events, group dinners, business meetings or more private celebrations.
These private rooms stand out for providing a more welcoming and reserved atmosphere, making them ideal for groups, Christmas dinners or business meetings. The restaurant, which has two floors, has a lower area that is usually reserved for special occasions such as group dinners, tastings and events with wine tastings.
But on the main floor there are also more welcoming spaces, perfect for small groups and for a more personalized experience.
Address: Rua Rodrigues Sampaio 33-35 (Avenida da Liberdade)
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday, 12.30pm to 3pm and 7pm to 11pm (closed on Sundays)

Solar dos Presuntos
Although it’s not exactly a place where you can stay and dance, we decided to include Solar dos Presuntos on this list because of its quality. After all, this is a place to consider when booking your next group dinner.
Located in the center of Lisbon, the place has a 4.5 rating on Google (out of more than 5000 reviews). Known for its delicious typical Portuguese food, it also has special menus for groups and a private room (the latter may not be available to everyone).
Even so, it’s always worth taking a look at the group menus and enjoying good food in a historic restaurant with such a welcoming atmosphere, where many well-known faces from our square have been (and still are).
Address: Rua das Portas de Santo Antão 150
Hours: Monday to Saturday, from 12 noon to 3.30 p.m. and from 6.30 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Reservations: 213424253
Pinocchio
Nowadays, those who pass by the Pinocchio restaurant are frightened by the huge queues to get in. And with good reason, we’ve been there for a snack and the food is really delicious.
But on the ground floor of this friendly and charismatic restaurant in Restauradores is a small private room capable of accommodating several guests, who can enjoy Pinóquio’s menu in a more modest way.
Address: Praça dos Restauradores 80 (Restauradores)
Opening hours: every day from 12pm to 11pm
Menu and reservations: on the website
Bistro 100 Maneiras
The restaurant of the charismatic Chef Ljubomir Stanisic has a private room where only eight people can fit, for an experience that goes far beyond the flavors you can taste at Bistro 100 Maneiras.
Private and for exclusive moments, Hendrick’s Room comes from the imagination of artists Mário Belém and Filipe Pinto Soares, who combined illustrations with technological installations (you can activate a LED scheme with 128 random programs), making this one of Lisbon’s “best kept secrets”.
So, if you’re looking for a more intimate space, this room also has the advantage of being able to surprise all your guests.
Address: Largo da Trindade 9 (Chiado)
Opening hours: Monday to Friday from 6.30 p.m. to 2 a.m.; Saturdays and Sundays from 12 noon to 3 p.m. and from 6.30 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Menu and reservations: on the website
Soão – Asian tavern
Okay, you’ve chosen one of the best restaurants dedicated to Asian cuisine… perfect, because here you can choose from several private spaces, although they are more cramped and therefore not suitable for large parties.
However, if your reservation is for a more intimate and quiet room, this oriental-style tavern will surprise all your guests.
Bafon Oriental’s private rooms have a minimum occupancy of four people, but you can’t stay there for more than two hours, the time of each shift.
Address: Avenida de Roma 100 (Alvalade)
Opening hours: every day

Jamie’s Italian
If you’ve never been to Jamie Oliver’s restaurant, you should know that it has three floors, 174 seats and a private room on the lower floor, which is where you’ll want to be with your guests, whatever the special occasion.
It also has two terraces, which can also be accessed privately, with breathtaking views of the capital, but they will only serve the purposes of this article on warmer days.
Here, the pizzas are the biggest sensations, but of course you’ll always find something else to entertain your friends, family or business associates with.
Address: Praça do Príncipe Real 28A
Opening hours: Sunday to Thursday, from 12 noon to 11 p.m.; Fridays and Saturdays, from 12 noon to 12 p.m.

Menina Bonita Station
The Estação Menina Bonita restaurant is part of a dream full of technology, and it’s in the main room that all the action takes place, from acrobatic shows to live music, not forgetting that you’re being served by several robots .
But if you’re looking for a private room, here you’ll find one of the most incredible VIP rooms in this guide, with capacity for 16 people and equipped with the latest smart glass system, which allows you to adjust the opacity of the glass with a simple command, ensuring total privacy from the outside in, without you missing a beat of what’s happening in the main room.
In this private room you’ll also have the right to a staff member dedicated solely to your guests, ready to satisfy your every request, making it ideal for events such as birthdays, business meetings or even bachelor parties.
Address: Avenida Infante Dom Henrique 306, Armazém 5, Piso 2 (Cabo Ruivo)

Open since we met in 1988, this restaurant in Belém has gone through several phases and is now more modern than ever.
The old bar has given way to a space where you can enjoy fusion cuisine with Japanese and Peruvian influences; the main room has a huge terrace facing the Bom Sucesso Dock; and the room you’re looking for is still in the same place as ever, but now with capacity for up to 18 people.
