Food, drinks, service, ambiance -- all perfection. We come here for the vegan tasting menu & the mocktails (love that those options are available!), & are never disappointed.

This restaurant transcends having a meal into an experience. The tasting menu (we had both Vegan & Omnivore) was divine & the wine pairing was simply perfect. How they manage to pair wines for both vegan & ominvore simultaneously was remarkable. The plating was sublime, but the pièce de résistance was the service. The staff were kind & attentive & we truly felt that they cared about our experience. It was a perfect dining event in a delightful setting.

Outstanding experience. We had the tasting menus. We were a combination of vegans, vegetarians & meat eaters (five people in total) & the restaurant had wonderful options for all of us. The service was excellent, highly knowledgeable, very friendly & unpretentious. I highly recommend L'Orygine.

Amazing service from the staff who were very friendly, helpful, fun, & knowledgeable. Delicious food & drinks (vegan tasting menu w/ non-alcoholic pairing) - maybe some of the best I've ever had! The freshest ingredients creatively combined into layers of flavourful pairings beyond imagination for both food & drinks - absolutely fantastic & divine! Will definitely be returning next time I'm in Quebec.

We had a really great experience at Bistro L'Orygine. The tasting menu is a must-try. It was so great to have options for both vegetarian & vegan menus. Each course was unique, beautiful & wonderfully thought out. The wine list is extensive & you really can't go wrong. Highly recommend!

An absolutely wonderful experience at Bistro L'Orygine. Visiting to celebrate our anniversary, this was a highlight of our trip o Quebec City. From the beginning, it was clear this would be a special experience: not only did they call ahead to confirm our reservation, they were able to adjust by a day because my partner was feeling ill on the day of. Bistro L'Orygine also took steps to accommodate a Gluten Free request as part of their Vegan tasting menu. Not being a gastrophile, & thus unable to give an "educated review" of the food, let me say this: each plate & pairing of the Discovery Menu (one of us had the vegan, the other omnivore) was absolutely wonderful. Each dish was prepared with care, the flavours really highlighted a balance of local fare, & the plates were a perfect size. The broth & noodles were cravable, the duck was perfect, & the squash dessert was so flavourful.

Each pairing was perfect. The service was impeccable. While "pricey," (it's a dinner in Old Quebec City, so please expect that!), it was incredible value for the meal & experience. We'll visit again on our return to Quebec City.

Great meal overall. Service was not where it should have been because they were so busy. Omnivore tasting menu was excellent, vegetarian could use some improvement.
