Have been to Origin 3 times so far for a Sunday lunch (twice good, once poor). But this was the first time going of an evening. It was my partner's birthday so we hoped to have a lovely meal. The starter of chicken confit was over salted and my portion was full of grizzle, very unpleasant. Mains we both ordered the shepherds pie but rather than a conventional one made with minced lamb, the chef (probably trying to be clever) used pulled lamb rather like pulled pork and it was dry and does not go well underneath piped potatoes. Yes there was a small pot of gravy but the shepherd's pie should have gravy within it (The Ivy chain of restaurants does a perfect shepherd's pie). Even the sides of cabbage and bacon wasn't great... Desert I ordered the chocolate and spiced pear souffle which was ok but could have been better. All in all not the standard of food that I expected and I do know good food. Little ambience as not many people eating and this was a Friday evening. Will I return? Well I would for the Sunday lunch as it was very good in the summer, but never of an evening. Once the service charge is added, plus sides and a couple of soft drinks, the overall cost is almost £100 which for what we were given is not value at all. The royal garden used to have a fabulous restaurant called the Park Terrace. The food was outstanding and the actual restaurant was one you would want to eat in. Origin has lost its way... it looks more like a bistro; the chairs are not that comfortable and I cannot see how they will keep getting returning guests unless they provide consistently high quality food that tastes perfect.

A wonderful setting to enjoy a long overdue catchup with friends. Beautiful view if the Park in sublime autumnal colours. Very relaxed setting with wonderful food and excellent staff.

The food was nice but not worth the wait

Half an hour wait between dishes, no check backs, left waiting for the bill for half an hour - only got to pay the bill when we eventually got up to go to the desk and he ran after us. Would’ve taken service charge off but was rushed to pay. Completely inattentive and just awkward

We had a lovely meal. Our previous visit had not been successful and so we were giving it another chance. We will definitely be back.

The Travelxoo deal was £34 for 3 courses and a cocktail. Why not make it £40 and include a side dish and bread?

The food was fabulous but it it was rather lacking in atmosphere and quite a large area of the dark coloured ceiling was white (being plastered or repaired and not repainted. I much preferred the old restaurant on the first floor.
