The story
Ofício - Wine & Dining Room, also known as Ofício - Tasco Atípico, is an intimate Lisbon bistro where the focus is on wine and deliberate, seasonal cooking. Located on Rua Nova da Trindade, the space has evolved naturally over time, shifting its rhythm while keeping its core purpose. The result is a welcoming, more mature dining room that feels like a local reference.
At the helm is Chef Maurício Varela, whose vision has left a clear mark on Lisbon’s food scene. His creative bistro-style cooking values Portuguese ingredients, seasonality, and technical precision. The menu changes with the seasons, offering dishes meant to be shared over a bottle of wine. The wine list is central here, chosen to dialogue with each plate and elevate the experience.
The restaurant’s consistent quality and value have earned it a Michelin Bib Gourmand, a nod to its good cooking at accessible prices. The atmosphere is intimate and unhurried, designed for lingering. Whether seated indoors with air conditioning or at an outdoor table, the vibe is generous and personal. Private parties and wine pairings are also available, making Ofício a versatile spot for a deliberate evening out.
