An absolute gem in Old Montreal!I had an incredible dining experience at Restaurant L'Orignal. The cozy chalet atmosphere is amazing. The burrata appetizer was incredibly fresh & delicious, & the Bison Burger was hands down one of the best I've ever tasted-so juicy & flavorful! Great service & fantastic vibes. Highly recommend!
Every time I eat at L'Orignal, I am blown away. It is quite possibly my favourite restaurant in the city at this point. From the amazing food, to the outstanding service, to the cozy decor, this place always delivers. Michael & his staff are always on-point -- friendly, warm, & fast.
I'm not the kind of person to care much for specials, as I typically go with what I know I already love. However, at L'Orignal, the specials always pique my interest, so we usually get one with our order. They're always stellar.
L'Orignal is perfect for large groups, a small family gathering, & even for date night. I can't wait to come back soon!
If you are a Montrealer & haven't been here yet, you are truly missing out.
Highly recommend for a cozy dinner. We shared the mushroom toast, Brussels sprouts, tagliatelle, salmon special, & the sticky toffee. Dishes are on the smaller side but the flavours & quality outweigh the size. Service was fantastic, too.
Our family traveled to Montreal for the thanksgiving holiday. We had our thanksgiving meal at L'Orignal. We were immediately greeted when we walked in & shown to our table. Throughout we had fast & very friendly service. The food was excellent, the atmosphere cozy & the prices fair. We loved it.
Impeccable service & fresh hearty food. Everything we ordered was spot on! Surprisingly also very kid friendly & such a beautiful cozy environment. Can't wait to go back
We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience! I ordered the braised beef cheek & it was incredibly tender, full of flavor, & cooked to perfection. My husband had the bison tomahawk & he was genuinely amazed - easily one of the best meals he's had in a long time.
The place itself is very cozy, almost like a warm & inviting chalet, which made the whole evening feel even more special.
To top it all off, the chef came by our table to say hi, & he was truly awesome & friendly, passionate, & clearly proud of his craft.
Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for exceptional food, a cozy atmosphere, & a memorable experience!
A hidden gem - cozy lodge vibes with a winter aesthetic. Truly excellent food, layered & delicious flavors, made thoughtfully & with a care. High end food in a casual atmosphere. Couldn't help but try every course & can't wait to try more. Absolutely worth a stop.
