About Us

Restaurant L'Orignal opened in the winter of 2008 to a warm welcome from locals and tourist alike. The room is decked out in chalet decor, and is a little getaway to the country...in the middle of Old Montreal. The kitchen turns out local farm dishes with a modern look. With fun play lists and our variety of cocktails, L'Orignal is a little bit more just your local restaurant.

Our new favourite! Kat & I loved everything from the warm & cozy wood cabin ambiance to the 80s music. The food was incredible, with every mouthful a delight. Service was friendly, accommodating, & attentive. Drinks (cocktails around $15) were excellent. It's quieter before 7:30 & the entrance is a bit off the beaten path (I did not see if there's an alternative, wheelchair-accessible entrance). We walked 9km in the downtown/old Montreal core, looking for a decent place to have dinner, & ironically, this one was just behind our hotel. Like, literally right behind it. We both chose from the daily specials. Kat had the sea bass, which had a parsnip puree & seafood chowder bed. It was fantastic & she loved every bite. I had the duck with pumpkin puree & a fantastic mole sauce. Dessert was an incredible sticky toffee pudding & a mousse that Kat was very cagey about sharing, it was that good. With the two entrees & desserts, a glass of wine & four cocktails, dinner came to a little over CDN$200. Service was perfectly attentive, with water being constantly refilled, empty glasses & plates taken promptly, & friendliness as warm as the ambiance. It's our new must go-to in Montreal.View more

Our dinner here was amazing. We started with the Oysters which were outstanding & very unique, was excited to try some from PEI as we rarely see them in New England. We each had specials for our mains & they were also very good & thoughtfully executed. Service was fantastic! We always try to visit new places when we are in Montreal but it will be hard not to stop back in to L'Original when we come back next year.View more

Pour notre sortie père/fille nous avons été charmé par ce restaurant! Elisa nous a donner un EXCELLENT service, en plus de nous conseiller 2 excellents vin! Le seul point que mon père a moins aimer, c'est qu'il y avait beaucoup de gras sur le porc qu'il a commander.. Mais sinon, les saveurs étaient au rendez-vous de l'entrée au dessert 🤍 284$ pour 2 entrées, 2 repas, 2 cocktail, 2 verres de vin BIEN remplis, 2 dessert & 2 café (on roulais en sortant de la !)View more

This place is a great little gem. Just go. You will not Be disappointed. We sat at the bar & were served by Michael. Oysters were amazing. He shucks them right in front of you. Highly recommend the maple old fashioned & espresso martini but everything he made looked great. Atmosphere is cozy Quebec rustic cabin vibes. Great food & service. Thank you Michael. We will be back Trevor & TessaView more

Honestly we were disappointed. A cosy restaurant & good service but the food was average & lacked imagination & flavour. We have been in Montreal for 7 days & eat out in good quality places every night so we have a baseline for above average food, sadly this was not in the above average group.View more

Visited with work colleagues & was very impressed. The service was first class. Didn't get the servers name but was a lovely lady that really coped well with 12 of us early Nov'23. Thank you for a great night. Food was amazing. I shared the steak which was excellent. The overall ambience of the place really made the evening.View more
