SECONDS\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t <\/span>\n
\n \n

IN GASTRONOMIC HEAVEN SINCE 2018<\/h4>\n

The vertiginous 50 seconds in the panoramic lift to the top of the Vasco da Gama Tower inspired the name of the FIFTY SECONDS restaurant.
\nIt is here, 120 metres up, with an unforgettable view over the River Tagus and a sophisticated, cosmopolitan atmosphere, that you will discover gastronomic heaven.<\/p>\n

FIFTY SECONDS is a spiritual project that brings together a team of excellent professionals with a singular objective: to provide a unique gastronomic experience with every dish.<\/p>\n

With its sober, minimalist d\u00e9cor, the glow of copper and smoky blues sign the elegant colour palette of FIFTY SECONDS, in a space with 40 seats where the exuberant wine cellar takes centre stage. <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>
