Yes, many places in Europe have 3 prices: one for the bar, one at in indoor table, and one (the highest) for the outdoor terrace tables.

The world over, it sometimes takes a tip to the maitre 'd to get a great table.

Some restaurants limit what you can order at some tables...for example, seats in the dining room for dinner only, not drinks OR no real dinner service in the bar etc.

So restaurants do a form of this, but there is no formal extra charge for the raised booth in the back overlooking everyone else (yet.)
