A brilliant experience with friendly professional service. The food was excellent and plentiful.
Overall meal was great and very tasty. I had the beef (which was a bit rare) and there was too much meat and not enough vegetables. A few potatoes would have been nice.
We enjoyed our meal Food very good Hope all returns to normal as soon as possible
We will book again when the second lockdown ends,
Wow, unbelievable, how good was the food here. £18 for 5 courses Absolute quality, white star service, really friendly staff. Reminded me on being on Queen Mary 2.
Everyone made my birthday a real special event and the food was just superb!!
The waiting on boys and the food were excellent.
Lovely lunch, mussels and fish main course were particularly good. Great service.
Thank you for a lovely lunch in what must be very difficult circumstances for the students. Lovely food!
Felt very safe with precautions being taken and soon forgot all was rather more bare than usual. . Students confident and offered excellent service. Good choice of menu and food excellent. Very enjoyable lunch.
We had a wonderful meal, great service And such fantastic value for money and would highly recommend origins restaurant. We shall be back.
A lovely first experience for myself and my mother in law ( my mum who was also with us comes to you regularly). The staff and food were fantastic. I only gave a 3 star for atmosphere as it’s just a little different eating out now due to Covid. Not a reflection on yourselves. Thank you I will be back 😊
Another enjoyable meal thank you
An enjoyable lunch. Thank you
Can't fault it. Great experience, food and service very good. Good quality food, looks and tastes great, and at a great price. Service from people on their 1st, 2nd & 3rd day, learning the trade, but still made you feel so welcome.
The Atmosphere is very different with all the staff wearing protection gear, may be more greenery in the deco would improve it somehow. We nevertheless really enjoyed our lunch, it was a treat, so thank you for running such a quality service and culinary experience.
Fantastic value for money. The food was excellent and very well presented. A.pity that so few diners attended but Origins had only just re-opened. We will definitely return
The three-star rating for atmosphere is inevitable, given the prevailing circumstances, but staff and students were as welcoming and cheerful as ever. But overall, a delight to be back at my favourite restaurant.
Very impressed with how you have adapted to current Covid requirements. We felt very safe and very welcomed and enjoyed a delicious dinner. Thanks to all, front and back of house.
Fantastic first evening back in unprecedented times, well done! Food amazing. The chocolate dessert was to die for!!
5🌟 Food at affordable prices what's not to love I will be booking again very soon. The students are always polite and helpful. They will become top class in their chosen professions
Although we were unable to hold the event due to Covid – 19 this would have been the third time the Drapers Company had come to Origins due entirely to the fact that on the previous two occasions we had an excellent time , lovely food , great service and a warm welcome from all the staff and students. We hope to return in October if the situation permits .
It was great, loved it. I can be quite a fuzzy eater so being limited to a taster menu encourages me to try so many different dishes that I might not always choose, all of which turned out great, kitchen catered well for a pescatarian as well. Fab service. Thanks and see you again.
As always an excellent meal, the dessert was exceptional,
I didn't know what to expect with Irish night but the food presented was an absolute delight. I liked the choice of pearl barley and whilst stout ice cream with apple and oats didn't sound promising the actual combination was fabulous. Overall an excellent homage to the country
