L'Orygine propose une expérience gastronomique mémorable, marquée par une utilisation créative d'ingrédients locaux québécois et un souci du détail exemplaire. De nombreux convives soulignent l'atmosphère sophistiquée et la qualité exceptionnelle des menus dégustation, qui s'adaptent avec soin aux besoins alimentaires variés, notamment pour les options végétaliennes et sans gluten. Bien que les accords mets et vins ainsi que les sélections de boissons sans alcool soient souvent décrits comme des atouts majeurs rehaussant le repas, le service attentionné et professionnel demeure un élément central des retours. Que ce soit pour une célébration spéciale ou une soirée, les clients apprécient l'alliance entre les techniques culinaires innovantes et l'accueil chaleureux qui caractérise ce restaurant.
We ordered five dishes, & two of them, the lamb gravlax & the ceviche, were not enjoyable for us. We didn't complain because we weren't trying to make a scene. We were hungry & kept eating to see if the flavors would come together.
Our servers were great. When one of them checked in, we simply said those dishes weren't our favorites. We explained that the ceviche tasted bland & that the lamb's flavors felt confused to us. Our server apologized, & we thought that would be the end of it.
Later, the GM came over & repeatedly asked if everything was okay. After he insisted, we explained what had happened. Instead of acknowledging the mistake, he responded defensively, saying that's why the dishes are served separately on the tasting menu & telling my husband that his palate was different from both his own & the chef's.
The restaurant knew those dishes weren't meant to be eaten together, yet served them together without any guidance, then somehow made it seem like the issue was with the customers rather than the service.
We were uncomfortable enough to skip dessert.
Mistakes happen, but how they're handled matters. If there's no intention of improving the experience, it's better not to approach the table at all.
Nous étions un groupe de 7 personnes pour célébrer l'anniversaire de mon conjoint en avril dernier & nous avons été extrêmement déçus. Cela ne nous a pas empêché de profiter de la soirée car nous étions en bonne compagnie & nous ne sommes pas le genre de client à s'offusquer haut & fort aux membres du personnel, ce qui aurait simplement créé un malaise & gâché la soirée, mais pour un restaurant qui se veut haut de gamme, il est très ordinaire. On nous a demandé nos allergies, intolérances & particularités alimentaires, ce qui nous a semblé une belle attention digne des restaurants de qualité desquels se prétend l'Orygine, mais tous les services ont été mélangés, il a fallu redire à plusieurs reprises qui était pesco-végé ou qui avait une intolérance à tel aliment. Honnêtement, j'aurais préféré que la serveuse ait un papier & un crayon plutôt que de devoir gérer ça & démêler tout à chaque service, devoir attendre son propre plat retourné en cuisine en raison d'une erreur alors que les autres étaient servis, & ce, encore & encore. Pourtant, les'particularité' n'était pas si difficile ni inusité & ça concernait 3 personnes sur 7. Il y avait des éléments manquants dans certains plats en raison des particularités & qui n'avaient pas été substitués par autre chose pour compenser. Le dessert avec la chandelle a été déposé devant une femme alors que j'avais spécifié lors de la réservation que c'était l'anniversaire de mon conjoint X. Il y avait des erreurs sur les additions à la fin. Le dessert de l'une comportait une petite mouche à fruit morte (fort appétissant n'est-ce pas... ?). Les portions étaient peu généreuses & nous avions encore faim lorsque nous avons quitté le restaurant. Il y a de biens meilleurs restaurants que celui-ci dans la ville de Québec. Je vous recommande plutôt Il matto ou bien Rioux & Pettigrew. Nous ne retournerons pas à l'Orygine. Bien trop cher pour une qualité très médiocre. Un restaurant qui a à coeur d'offrir un excellent service aurait offert une certaine compensation pour se rattraper de toutes ces erreurs. C'est l'une des premières fois où j'ai réellement été tentée de ne donner aucun pourboire.
Attentive service, warm ambience that's fit for a Michelin star restaurant. Sommelier is very knowledgeable. Loved the amuse bouche. The main dish I ordered was grilled halibut fillet with escabeche which was extremely dry because it was grilled & charred to an unpalatable stage. It was dry, overdone, & bitter. Dessert was flavourful.

I was hesitant to post this review. My partner & I really were so excited to go to L'Origin. The sebasste (rockfish) was a delicious dish with great complimentary flavours. However, I was just so disappointed with the flavours & quality of most dishes. While creative & aesthetic choices were well executed, when I am paying $500+ for 2 dinners & wine I do expect the flavour to consistently be there as well. I am from a province with many seasonal businesses, & was left with the feeling that they should just be closed for the winter, rather than provide expensive food that just doesn't taste good.
Most dishes had a flavour that drowned out part of the other dishes. We were served a delicious veal tarte that was overpowered by the tarte shell. There was one dish of beets-3-ways & despite loving beets the textures & lack of any other flavour getting through left me disappointed. The mushroom dessert was creative, but had a bad aftertaste.
If you have the extra cash, & reframe the experience as an art exhibition on local food availability & how we are dependent on trade routes for good flavours in our cuisine (especially in winter), then it's interesting, although a little costly.
In the end we were left disappointed with the flavour while the aesthetic of the food was completely on point. It looked good. It presented well. 3 out of the 6 dishes tasted fine (not amazed) & 3 left me very disappointed that this was the restaurant we chose for our holiday this year.
This was my first Michelin Star restaurant & I was surprised at how little flavour most dishes had. I was expecting more, as I've had amazing meals at non-starred restaurants locally. I feel they focused far more on aesthetic than flavour.
Nous avons choisi le menu découverte, un omnivore & un végétarien. Nous avons vraiment apprécié les plats, ils étaient très savoureux, ce fut une excellente découverte. Seuls les desserts laissaient à désirer à mon goût. Ils étaient authentiques, mais pas assez savoureux pour vraiment ravir les papilles. Peut-être des desserts trop léger pour moi. Le service était excellent.
Une expérience inoubliable!!!
Du cocktail au dessert, des émotions gustatives! Des mets de grande qualité, un service à la hauteur de l'établissement, un cadre magnifique ….une adresse de renommée à découvrir. Merci à toute l'équipe pour ce fabuleux moment
Picked the place for my son's birthday celebration during our Quebec trip, love the atmosphere right after we walked in. Our server Sam is very friendly & confident comes to recommendation, we enjoyed the food especially & melting pork belly! Sam & another staff also sang a French version of birthday son while bringing him the delicious deconstructed strawberry dessert. My boy said this has to be a 5 stars ^_^
Must go place if you are in Quebec City & are looking forward to the dinner of the century!!! Food was great & arrived quickly. Every part of the food was explained with detail. Ambience was really good, it was spacious as well. Food was the best, if you could put poetry on a plate it would be that. Tons of vegetarian meals also! Need to have meals: mushroom morel risotto, Peach & Mozzarella salad & Tomato & Paneer. Desserts: Strawberry & Hazelnut, Lemon thyme Panacotta. Drink: Cola. The vegetables were so good kids plates were completely clean. They had grilled peach & squash without anyone asking them to. Who knows what other veggies they ate. To be honest some of the vegetables were so delicious you didn't even realize what you ate. Our 4 year old son also enjoyed. We had a great host, Sam, who guided us through with the best meals & drinks not to forget desserts! & the Strawberry hazelnut had delicious jelly & wafers topped with ice cream had strawberries, but most importantly the strawberry wafer paper was great! & the Tomato & paneer had savory herb sponge cake! Over all great experience!!!!👌😁
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!:)
