Both of us very much enjoyed the tasting menu (one omnivore & one pescatarian) with wine pairing. Service of each course by all the staff was wonderful. Our evening on the patio was a lovely end to the day, & one of the highlights of our visit to Q.C.

The menu seems to change so don't go by what is the website in advance. It one of you wants the tasting menu, it has to be the whole table or no dice. I was expecting better owing to the many good reviews & advance publicity.

Everything was perfect at L'Orygine, from the initial check-in to the ultimate take-home cookie. We chose the chef's tasting five course menu with wine pairings. Each course was beautifully arranged, tastefully cooked, & delicious, from one to the next, including the amuse-bouche to begin. All of the waiters were helpful & friendly, describing in detail each elaborate course. Our primary waiter did an excellent job explaining each wine selected to accompany the course. All of the ingredients are fresh & full of flavor. The restaurant indoors & on the terrace is beautiful in every detail. We could not have been more pleased. Thank you!

Fabulous! Such imaginative & creative cuisine! I chose the tasting menu with the local wine pairings. All of the dishes were beautifully presented, & had amazing combinations of flavors & textures, making each a voyage of discovery. The wines, too, were nuanced, & a refreshing change from the usually French-dominated fare. Very attentive & friendly service, & a delightful ambiance. Highest marks!

Amongst the world-class Group La Tanière restaurants, L'Orygine absolutely stands apart. The manager, servers, & bartender were absolutely phenomenal & made my night a truly special one. Their five-course discovery tasting is absolutely worth it for anyone visiting for the first time...or more. It's a great example of their current menu for the season with a few original twists thrown in. The cocktails are expertly crafted, including on the spot! I made gave Gabriel just a couple of ingredients & he crafted a cocktail on the spot that even he fell in love with. He kept all the patrons happy, laughing, & feeling at home. If you visit Quebec City, you owe it to yourself to make a reservation & enjoy the experience for yourself.

Great tasting menus! My wife loved her vegan menu & I loved some of her dishes more than my meat menu which I loved!
