Can't say enough about our honeymoon tasting menu experience at l'Orygine, which was recommended to me by my private club's general manager.
The experience surpassed all expectations, both on the menu & wine pairings; the maitre d' was world-class, & we had the opportunity to sample unbelievable Quebec ingredients we simply do not have access to in Toronto.
Bravo to all involved - an unforgettable experience.
We had an exceptional meal at L'Orygine. Every dish was incredible by every measure. Textures were a hit, sauce flavours were mouth-watering, & the dishes were very innovative (popcorn w/ corn sauce, cucumber spheres). The pork belly was the best I've ever tasted - tender, juicy, fat exploding with flavour. The cocktails & wine we had were equally tasty.
Some minor service lapses - dish explanations with little enthusiasm & a forgotten wine pairing with a dish. Despite this, the quality of the dishes easily stood out & we can't wait to return.
Had an amazing dinner at Bistro L'Orygine! The food was outstanding & made with fresh local ingredients. The wine pairings were spot-on, & I loved that they included some great Quebec wines. The covered outdoor seating with a cozy fireplace made for a really nice atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!
One of the best restaurant experiences I've had in the Province of Quebec or anywhere. The staff was knowledgeable, pleasant, prompt, & professional. Known for its tasting menu & wine pairings, it was a real experience with unique combinations of tastes & food items served in a unique environment both indoor & outdoor. We were unexpectedly & delightfully treated to two glasses of red wine when there was a slight delay between two courses, a delay we had not even noticed. The mark of well trained, customer focused staff. I will definitely go back!

A zillion stars! This sits as one of the top three dining experiences of all-time - not just because of the unforgettable food, but also the passionate, friendly, engaging service. They went absolutely above & beyond, not only accommodating my gluten free preference & severe garlic & onion allergy, but using the opportunity to get really creative & offer dish after dish of amazing surprises. We ordered the 6 course Menu Découverte with wine pairing, & the care & intention that went into every course was felt & so delightful.
A huge thanks to Chef & team for your unmatched hospitality. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fabulous local food experience, & certainly for foodies with dietary accommodations. You won't be disappointed!
I often give out 5 stars but they are relative. A good food truck 5 star obviously not the same as a nice restaurant. L'Orygine however is a 5 star on any scale. We had the tasting menu & wine pairing. Unbelievable!!!! Service was extremely attentive & accommodating. So very happy we found this spot.
Had an incredible dinner here! Service, ambiance, food were all amazing. We did the tasting menu. I have celiac so mine was made completely gluten-free & they took it very seriously. My husband had the vegan one & loved his food as well! Also nice to see a non-alcoholic wine pairing option.
