Was Jaime A at L'Orignal a mag?
A group of 5 of us enjoyed a wonderful birthday celebration. The food was outstanding. The service was impeccable. We will definitely be visiting this place again. Thank you to Mike and his staff for being so warm and inviting. View all feedback.

What Candida Bauch dislikes about L'Orignal:
Un accueil sympathique avec une ambiance plutôt sympa. Par contre nous avons pris deux entrées à base de saumon bonnes mais rien d'extraordinaire. Les plats étaient correctes dont l'un très peu copieux (les pétoncles), le tout pour 130$ et nous avions faim en sortant. Je pense que l'on peut trouver mieux ailleurs... View all feedback.

Outstanding choice in a great central location. Service was excellent and friendly in a very charming and cozy atmosphere. We had mushroom toast, the bison burger, fish of the day and the pot de creme and all were delicious. Not far from the metro and paid parking lots nearby. Price per person: $50–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We ate here 7 yrs ago and we thought these were the best oysters we ever had and thought so for the intervening yrs. Well we remembered the place and returned today and they're still the best oysters ever. The Halibut was amazing as was the pork schnitzel. Good to see the same guy/boss from last time. Price per person: $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
