"Chef Hugo Candeias is behind Ofício’s new menu, a place that sells itself as an “atypical tasca”. Unlike your typical tasca, here the decor is carefully thought through and the ambiance is bright and inviting. The savory menu is divided into cold and hot options, with tempting dishes like mussels in escabeche sauce, beef tartare with marrowbone and oven baked ray fish. Petiscos such as the seafood vegetable taco, with crisp iceberg lettuce in place of a tortilla, may not sound like the most Portuguese thing ever, but the flavors you’ll experience at Ofício are decidedly local. It’s just that they’re a little atypical!"

"This centrally located restaurant, almost directly opposite the Bairro do Avillez gastronomic complex, defines itself as an "atypical tasco ", where the concept is to offer contemporary Portuguese cuisine perfect for sharing, served in the informal atmosphere of a typical neighbourhood restaurant. Here, you’ll find starters, petiscos, hot specialities, sharing boards and seasonal dishes on the menu, all of which showcase excellent technique, typical flavours and the occasional Mexican touch, given that the chef worked in the famous (and now defunct) Hoja Santa restaurant in Barcelona."

"This atypical neighborhood “tasco” is a rare gem. Contemporary Portuguese dishes are served in a laid-back setting and distinguished as Bib Gourmand by the Michelin Guide—a local favorite."
