This place is absolute fire. If you're in the Bywater for breakfast/brunch/lunch, don't pass this up. Tequenos, perfect texture, right amount of Grease. Tuna tiradito is an explosion of flavors and the soft tuna pairs perfectly with the fried arepa. If you like mescalitas, their version (vezcalita) is excellent. Great combo of sweet and spicy. The cachapa with pork and egg is a bizarre dish. Almost too many competing flavors and textures but very unique and still quite tasty.

Origen Bistro in New Orleans delivers a refined and elevated take on Venezuelan cuisine while staying true to its roots. I ordered the branzino and it was perfectly cooked, with crisp skin and tender, flavorful flesh. The seafood stew was another standout, rich and aromatic with fresh shrimp and calamar. The tajadas were caramelized beautifully and added the perfect comforting touch.
I also ordered a papelon and it was excellent, refreshing, and well balanced.
Origen Bistro brings Venezuelan flavors to a fine dining level without losing their authenticity. A must visit in New Orleans.

And when I say this I mean it. THIS IS THE BEST RESTAURANT I'VE HAD IN NOLA SO FAR. Ohhhhh myyyyy, incredible vibes, incredible food. Such kindness and hospitality!
The ambience is so calming and gorgeous, I didn't think the food could be THAT amazing but holy heck!!! I got the Cachapa with pork. Make sure to ask for the house made hot sauce if you like spice. Woah... Incredible, I would rate this 11/10 if I could.

3 stars because although apart of the dining experience was nice, (thank you Carlos). two things occurred, Some of the dishes promoted aren’t event served on the menu, the burger in photo isn’t anything as ADVERTISED. it was suppose to be a 1/2 Pound oz Chopped ribeye, provolone cheese, papelon onions jam, origen basil aioli. Ordered the Tuna Caribe, which didn’t quite suffice as Tuna wasn’t as flavorfulnor cooked. He did accommodate me for the branzino fish. Better choice.
I write this review not only because of the dining experience, but also being blocked by the restaurant on Instagram after my party mentioned them about the lack in the Ribeye Burger. Poor.

What a wonderful evening. I thought I knew Venezuelan food, but this was a whole new experience. From the hot sauce from the owner’s grandfather’s recipe to the incredibly fresh fish, every bite was exceptional. The welcome and the service was warm and attentive. Looking forward to coming back!
