Place Of The Week: River Deck, Centro Vasco Da Gama

Sonae Sierra and CBRE IM elevate the dining experience at the Vasco da Gama Center in Lisbon with the recently opened River Deck, an innovative restaurant space.

This project, which has involved an investment of close to 9 million euros, has been inspired by the latest trends in design and dining experience and features 15 different dining concepts and a terrace with privileged views of the Tagus River.

The architectural concept, planning and execution of the work were carried out by Reify, resulting in a modern space that combines distinctive elements of great value with the highest international standards. This approach elevates the visitor experience and ensures optimal environmental and energy efficiency standards.

This new 3,300 sq m space combines a contemporary design with a diversified gastronomic offer, positioning itself as a reference project in the restaurant sector. The 15 new gastronomic concepts offer a unique experience and complement the existing offer in the Vasco da Gama Center.
