Wonderful as always! Beef cheek, schnitzel and a mushroom toast starter with a lovely bottle of Bordeaux!

We had the specials for both appetizers and main course and everything was excellent: poached eggs on smoked salmon with caviar, shrimp tempura, beef cheeks on a bed of mashed potatoes and green onion. Delicious and good portions. Friendly, helpful staff. Recommend.

Lovely spot and attentive service. Disappointed in my cocktail, though. Skip the Manhattan and order the oysters.

Each & everytime that I dine at this amazing establishment. The entire experence is so mush more than I would have ever expected. It's as if they unwilling know how to out do the last visit. I make the effort to stop each time that I am in town, it's so worth it.

Had an unbelievably delicious meal here. The decor is a little kitschy and they had some new staff who were still learning the ropes, BUT everything was incredibly tasty. The bartender made really top-tier Old Fashioned and Negroni cocktails, and the wine list was lovely. We started with the calamari special, which was a little small but perfectly executed. Another time I'd order an appetizer for each person at the table instead of splitting. The braised beef tagliatelle was one of the best pasta dishes I've eaten in a very long time, and the chocolate pot de creme was the perfect way to cap it off. We'll be coming back the next time we're in Montreal.

What a lovely lovely time we had at L'Orignal! The service was friendly but super professional, the food was exquisite, you can tell there was love in all the plates. The ambiance was perfect, with a playlist that made us truly happy. We will be back for sure. Thank you l'Orignal!

Very attentive service. Nice menu choices and well cooked food served at the correct temperature. Not the restaurants fault but the table next to us were loud and intruding into our space. Just our bad luck
Maura
Warm and cozy environment with good food and good service. Loved the playlist and it wasn't too loud. Some surrounding guests were awfully loud though. Not really the restaurant's fault.
This is such a special place!! The food is always outstanding , our waitress was amazing as well! Make it a point to stop here , it never disappoints
Gillian
Interesting food -very well presented. We had the tasting menu which is more of a sharing menu as the portions are large and heavy (some sort of bread with each course). It was very busy so service was quite slow. But good quality tasty food that had obviously been prepared with care and a great atmosphere and quirky decor

Went with my mom on a Saturday night! We sat at the bar and got our drinks quickly. The food took a little longer to come out than expected, but we didn't mind waiting. However, I got the bolognese pasta dish and, when it came out, I was surprised by how tiny the portion size was for the price. Bartender seemed very stressed out and yelled at something at one point... Besides that, overall good!

Excellent as expected, laid back casual and not stuffy or pretentious at all. Very enjoyable meal and experience.
