The halibut, tagliatelle, white wine beurre blanc was the only dish that felt confused, the meal was amazing as well as each of its individual parts, but might be capable of being two dishes in one. The veal tataki (& its vegetarian counter part enjoyed by my partner) was a mutually agreed to be an absolute orgasmic experience. Otherwise the experience starting with the music, to the cocktail pairings, to the staffs kindness & warmth, was 5 stars!! Thank you!
I give this Restaraunt a 5 out 5 star. We came for dinner our first night in Quebec & had the pairing menu accompanied by the premium wine pairing option. Everything was amazing, the atmosphere, the food, the service & the attention to detail are all matched. We are back again for an afternoon cocktail. The creativity that has gone into every part of this establishment creates the most memorable experience.
Amazing place in the heart of Old Quebec. Ordered a 6 course "Discovery Menu" paired with wine & it was awesome. The staff is well trained, well mannered & treats you well. It gets busy real quick, so reservation is recommended.

The menu changes based on what is available. The service was excellent with staff explaining all the ingredients & preparation of the dish. The wine pairing was great. The warm hand towels before the meal was a nice touch. Everyone in our group loved their food. Be certain to book a reservation.
I cannot say enough good things about this place. We did the 6 course discovery meal with local wine pairing. The chef let's you choose your level of plant-based (i.e. vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, omnivorous). We chose pescatarian as that's primarily our choice. The wines were incredible & the food was delicious. The service was amazing & the vibes of old Quebec were one of a kind. I used to think fine dining was pretentious & silly but l'orygine has entirely changed that. I look forward to my next meal with them.
Had the 6 course discovery menu with the wine pairing & non-alcoholic drink pairing. Great experience all round! Drinks were creative & matched the flair of each dish we were served. An expensive night out for us, but we thoroughly enjoyed it all & it was well worth it.
If the Michelin guide ever comes to Quebec City, they should take a good look here. The food here rivals other Michelin starred restaurants we've dined at the past several years. The outdoor space is lovely, & the food/wine pairings were excellent. Definitely worth the splurge if you're looking for this type of meal in QC!
We found the restaurant just walking the neighborhood, & saw the sign for organic, we researched & wanted to try. Everything I could have hoped for from decor to service & especially the food! As local as can be knowledgeable, friendly, (English thank goodness) or French. The choices Quebec wine & beer & spirits was great. If you want wine what a list for all over the world. Food was the quality far above the price!
