A M A Z I N G ! ! ! We did the tasting menu & wine pairing. It was beyond delicious. My partner is pescatarian & they adapted hers to be the vegan options + the fish options which was perfect. Incredible use of vegetables & ingredients. This was a perfect anniversary date dinner.

What a treat this was! We did the omnivore tasting menu with the “oryginal” wine pairing. Most of the dishes were some of the best I’ve had ever at a restaurant. The eggplant tacos, halibut, & duck were favorites. Pumpkin cake with raspberries & cream was delectable!! We loved the introduction to wines from the region. The herbal mint/parsnip tea was a surprising welcome at the end of the meal. Veal crudo was a bit of a miss for us but that could be a matter of personal preference. The staff worked together to serve & they were polite & informative, but they seemed as if they had been there for a while & just seemed tired. Lovely, lovely outdoor patio set in this ancient Old Quebec building. So idyllic. From where we sat, we got a glimpse of the St Lawrence river but there were other tables that had a more direct view. I can’t wait to return when we make another trip here soon!! Until then, Thank you for a wonderful evening!

My wife & I celebrated her birthday at l'orygin. We started with a glass of sparkling wine, & the ordered the vegan discovery menu accompanied by the local wine pairings. The entire experience was spectacular. The restaurant space afforded quiet conversation in a lovely setting. The staff was very pleasant & friendly. The presentation was beautiful. Each course was unique & delicious. The wine pairings provided the perfect complement. We recommend l'orygin to anyone looking for an elegant vegan dining experience.

Can't recommend Bistro L'Orygine highly enough. We enjoyed a very special meal - every course was unique, fresh, & exquisite. The wine pairings were outstanding. The team was welcoming & provided outstanding service. Thanks to Gabriel who took care of us. If you go to one special meal in Quebec, this is it.

Excellent restaurant. The right setting for the final dinner in Quebec City. Food is worth a Michelin star. Great selection of local wines. One course got mixed up with a different table but the service handled the situation really well & my wine pairing was upgraded.

Wonderful food, & outstanding service. Wine pairing was also excellent. All wines were excellent, rated 4.2 or above on Vivino. We had a memorable meal, & will plan to return the next time we are in Quebec City.

An incredible feast. We chose the vegan tasting menu & each course was beautiful & delicious. I had the wine pairing of local wines & cider which were complementary & wonderful. My husband had the mock tails pairing which were so creative! There is a team that takes care of you to make you feel welcomed & ensure you understand what you are eating & drinking.
