We enjoyed a nice dinner at L'Orignal our first night in town. I chose the restaurant as much because of it's proximity to the hotel as anything. The decorations in the smallish establishment are I'd call them north woods rustic... very cute. The menu is meat centric which is fine by me. The server was very pleasant and took good care of us.
I'd however have to mark the place down a few points for the loudness of the music which was playing. the classic American pop and folk would have been right at home at a bar but was a little intrusive for a romantic dinner. It did however remind me, I need a better sound system at home!
So bottom line, a nice dinner but I'm looking forward to continuing my quest in Montreal.
