Very interesting cuisine focusing on local ingredients, with vegan options on almost all dishes. Loved the local focus & the very friendly & professional staff. Vegan dishes were quite well thought out & a notch above the non vegan options.
J'ai pris le menu découverte vegan & j'ai adoré. Service impeccable. Cher, mais ça vaut le coup & j'y retournerais pour une occasion spéciale. Les portions sont parfaites & les plats sont originaux.

Our experience at L'Orygine was nothing short of perfection. My husband & I didn't know what to expect when we ordered the discovery menu but it was exquisite. Firstly, it was an incredibly elegant & excellent vegan menu - every dish was packed with flavour & perfect portions to accommodate 6 courses. The most lovely surprise was the wine selection, as we had no idea every course came with a different type of wine & they all paired perfectly with the food served. To top it all off, our server, Sam, was so attentive & kind; he was really the cherry on top of an already impeccable experience. My husband & I are still raving about L'Orygine even the next day. Thank you for such a special & amazing dinner experience. We can't wait to come back!
Marvellous, Splendid, & Stupendous. No words come close to describe the taste of this restaurant, which completely blew our minds away. We all are vegetarian & there is a one in 500 chance to find a restaurant that's rated so good & focuses on vegetarian. Our kids don't like vegetables but they ate squash, mushroom, & peppers & they loved every bit. We are staying for 4 days & we know which meal will be our last one. Definitely recommend mushroom & morel risotto & grilled peach salad. The desserts had all textures, with thin strawberry wafer paper, crunchy tarts, & strawberry gel with ice cream. Our helper was Sam & he was phenomenal he recommend great options & told us about the food. You know it's really hard to find a place with vegan options that taste like veg. DEFINETLY RECOMMEND!:)
This restaurant was an amazing experience. They were incredibly accommodating of different dietary needs-one person at our table was vegan, another avoided pork, & one was an omnivore. It was fun to see the subtle differences in each dish & how carefully they avoided cross-contamination while still delivering on flavor. Some of the ingredient combinations sounded unusual at first, but once everything came together, we were genuinely surprised by how well it all worked. Every staff member we interacted with was kind & welcoming, & the interior design was absolutely perfect.
absolutely delicious, charming atmosphere, & ready to accommodate anything- vegan, vegetarian, picky, pescetarian, any sort of food allergy, & have some phenomenal NA drinks as well! I was seriously struggling to resist licking my plate. I asked for a wine rec & got something amazing, & be sure to leave room for dessert because that isn't just artistic blobs of chocolate & cream, it was so freaking good. 10/10 will be dreaming about their oysters & NA whiskey drinks & baba for years.
Just be sure to plan ahead well, though- Quebec city has atrocious parking.
J'y suis allée pour le Brunch de Pâques, il y avait le choix entre un menu omnivore & un menu végan. J'ai choisi le végan & je ne suis pas déçue ! Tout était délicieux, le service est impeccable & le lieu est vraiment beau ! L'été l'expérience doit être encore plus belle avec leur terrasse exterieure, je pense y retourner. Bref que vous soyez végane ou non, si vous aimez la cuisine raffinée, vous serez comblés !
This was a magnificent culinary experience! We enjoyed Sunday brunch. The place was spotless. The service staff were kind & helpful & the food was out of this world. Every dish came with a narration of ingredients, cooking technique & reason for presentation. The focus of this place is on locally (in Quebec) sourced ingredients. This includes spices & seasonings. The combos presented were tasty & filling. The brunch provided options for meat eaters as well as vegan. This is one of the best restaurants I've ever experienced. I highly recommend it. We will definitely return!! Thank you for such great food & service!!
