Best meal in Lisbon. Great service as well. The only gripe was the air conditioner wasn’t up to snuff. It was quite warm and uncomfortable as we were trying to enjoy the meal.

We went to this restaurant on the recommendation of a trusted foodie. We enjoyed the ambiance and the food. We loved our server until she left us unattended for a long while after it was clear that we were done. I understand the difference in culture, but I think it’s important for a server to keep tabs on their tables. It was a good experience in every other regard.

The food was pretentious and flavours were awful with an exception for the Seaweed pasta which was delicious but the portion of pasta was very small and the delicious sauce went to waste.

Lively Atmosphere, But Underwhelming Flavors. The service and ambience at this tapas spot were fantastic—energetic, welcoming, and clearly popular. However, the food itself didn’t quite hit the mark. The flavors felt one-dimensional and lacked variety, which is disappointing for a place that specializes in tapas. A broader selection and more dynamic flavors could elevate the experience.

A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Lisbon – Ofício Restaurant Ofício in Lisbon is a standout for modern Portuguese cuisine. The atmosphere is stylish yet welcoming, perfect for a relaxed yet refined meal. Dishes like the razor clams and octopus are fresh, inventive, and beautifully presented. The use of seasonal local ingredients elevates every bite. Staff are attentive and knowledgeable, offering great wine pairings from a strong Portuguese selection. Ofício delivers a memorable dining experience—an absolute must-visit in Lisbon.

Our 3rd time @Oficio. Still a very recommendable experience, of course, though we found the menu less creative than a couple of years ago. Uncomplicated yet friendly and helpful service. Noisier than usual, probably because it was our 1st time on a Saturday. Still one of our favourites in Lisbon!

This place felt very overpriced for what we got. The dishes were beautifully presented, but the portions were small and they lacked flavor.

The dishes are very small to be advertised as sharing dishes for 2-3 people, they barely feed one person. My friend ended up not getting her entre, and although the restaurant offered to bring it out, the rest of the party was done eating. My other friend had a bday and instead of bringing out a slice of cake or dessert, she got a bowl full of rocks with a candle. Maybe it’s a cultural custom or something but it didn’t sit well with us after the one entre was forgotten. Not quite what we expected for service recovery. Food was good but we definitely left still hungry.

The food arrived all at once so hot dishes became cool. The sweetbreads were very tough. The wine was good and the veal tarter was excellent.

Helpful service with recommendations. Not sure all I ordered was served up but an interesting menu and good selection of wines. Would be nice to have more Portugese wines though. Sometimes the presentation was excessive (serving on inedible sea urchins unnecessary!) and crispy pork crackling was missing as were shrimps. Would certainly recommend for creativity but a more balanced menu would be good. Good value.

We had a great dinner at Oficio this evening. Our server was excellent and made some wonderful recommendations for both food and wine pairings. The food was elevated, but the atmosphere was relaxed. We had an amazing meal.

Once considered one of the most emblematic restaurants on Rua da Trindade, Oficio is now just a shadow of what it used to be. Our experience was disappointing from start to finish. The service was chaotic — waiters seemed unfamiliar with the menu, misidentified the dishes, and offered no guidance or recommendations. One of them even had a noticeably unpleasant body odour, which didn’t help the overall experience. We ended up ordering most of the menu without any structure or explanation. No one walked us through the dishes, their ingredients, or how they were meant to be enjoyed. The portions were extremely small — a disaster if you arrive hungry — and many of the dishes shared the same overpowering combination of oily, salty, and sour foams, sprinkled with random herbal oil droplets. Frankly, it’s baffling how Oficio holds a Bib Gourmand distinction from Michelin. Our visit felt more like a cautionary tale than a culinary experience. Avoid at all costs.
