5.5/10I went to Oficina do Duque in 2019 with my husband, the starters’ bread was so good, thin slices half grilled half not with pate, they are delicious and beautifully arranged in the basket. Today they first forgot our bread and served the salad and the main course directly, only after we remind them where is the bread, then they served in a rush - it’s half thin slices deep frying very very greasy and the other half thicker slices. The pate looked awful, not creamy, no port aroma, rough and not smooth inside your mouth. The main course Pork Jaw was overcooked, very hard, tasted like pork jerky. I’m so disappointed about the quality today. I had a wonderful experience in 2019 and a terrible lunch in 2024! My friends knew my experience in 2019 and were so excited to join me today and what a shame!

10/10Cam here solo, ordered the octopus and the tuna, absolutely amazing food at a reasonable price point. Had a mixup since I had multiple reservations at restaurants with similar names that I loved around, realized I booked this twice by accident, but I guess you can say I failed successfully. Had the bread/toast with pate, then pork neck on night two, didn’t disappoint. I really thought about coming back on my last day for breakfast…

8.5/10The service was excellent and the food while limited in selection was very good. They served a few unique items that we enjoyed trying. If you like something new, try the cuttlefish sliders.

10/10It was the warmth of the male staff, the beautiful and carefully prepared dishes, and the cool, comfortable ambience that made my experience top notch. I wish I had more room in my belly to try more of their delicious-looking dishes coming out of the kitchen. Before I leave Lisbon, I may be back!

8/10Recommended by a friend who is a chef. Really good and interesting food - the fish was excellent and I had a slow cooked oxtail dish which was fabulous. We sat outside on the steps as there was a noisy group inside. The only average part was the service. Our waiter was only OK, and forgot about us a couple of times.

7/10This is a charming and very affordable little restaurant. The food quality is a bit uneven with some dishes we tried being truly excellent (bread, offal, and port and the roasted vegetables) and some not quite hitting the mark (oxtails, catch of the day). The oxtails were stringy and bland and the split peas on the plate were tasty, but undercooked. The pear puree was very nice and lent some much-needed flavor to the oxtails. The catch of the day remains a mystery. The server said it was pompano, but it was a thick filet and much oilier than the pompano we’ve had before. This was likely a language/translation issue. It wasn’t cod. The veggie oodles served with the fish were very nice, but the onion purée didn’t contribute much to the dish and was unattractive. The service was attentive, polite, and well-intentioned, but there weren’t enough servers once the restaurant filled and it took awhile to have requests fulfilled. Take cash. Their credit card service seems to be erratic.

3.5/10The staff were sullen and very loud as they chatted to each other. This might have been because the music was also far too loud, especially as there are no soft surfaces to absorb it, so the acoustics bounce around everywhere. The food was lamb and couscous, which lacked imagination, and was somewhat dry and boring. Lovely location, but never again.

We highly recommend this restaurant the service was excellent! They also offer sushi. We tried the steak sushi and it melted in your mouth it was so good! We also enjoyed the desserts as well.

5.5/10I loved Oficina when I went a few years ago, and I wanted to try it again with visiting friends. Unfortunately, the restaurant was struggling to keep up with guests with limited staff in August. The food was still tasty and creative. However, waiting more than 30 minutes to get glasses for a large bottle of water our table was sharing after flagging 3 different servers was frustrating. Trying to get any server's attention was almost impossible. It took an hour for someone to take our food order! I'll chalk it up to light staffing in this month where most locals are away on holiday. I'm a local who is still here in August, and I expected better. Or close the restaurant for a few weeks, then.

5/10Was expecting a much better food experience based on reviews....My husband and I are not too picky when it comes to food but neither of us finished our meals (the Ox tail was flavorless and if served without being told what this was, you would not be able to distinguish the type of meat. The steak was very tough and took way too much effort to cut and chew. Service was average (forgot to bring out some of our order) but staff was very friendly.

9/10+1Oficina do Duque was recommend by a friend and. Is in recommending it to all. It was a great little restaurant. The food was mouthwatering and the presentation was beautiful. The staff takes a while to help and doesn’t come over as often to see if you need anything else but they were still pretty nice. Highly recommend for the foodie experience.
