8/10+6Opposite St. Barts on Circular Road, this restaurant offers a beautiful ambiance with maroon columns, rust-colored walls, and stunning artwork. Crisp white tablecloths add a classic touch, with a bar welcoming you on the left and the kitchen visible straight ahead. The experience began well with complimentary sourdough bread and nduja butter, which was delicious. However, the food itself was a bit underwhelming. The foie gras terrine was more terrine of other meat than of foie gras, with pockets of meat that masked the foie flavor, falling short of expectations. The Sunday beef roast also left mixed impressions. What shone in the roast were the crispy meat croquette, the gem cabbage, caramelized onions, and rich gravy—all delightful. But the beef lacked depth, tasting more like a standard cut rather than a high-quality one, even though it was nicely cooked medium-rare. The Yorkshire pudding had a bit too much oil, which pooled unpleasantly. On the bright side, the cocktails were a high

9.5/10Excellent food. High quality seafood and meats. Some dishes are great value (oysters), others not so much (steaks).

6/10The service is slow, they have inexperience waiters. We have to call them to be served !! The restaurant is full of 'small flies' circulating around our table & flying around, they need to steam clean & spray thoroughly with chemical throughout. I could report this to Food Standards Agency. We were not going to pay the 15% service charge because of the above reason but my other sister ended up paying the final bill. We went there in April this year ; we have had a much better service then especially with that manager who has left. The sparkling wine which included in the set menu was 'flat' , no gases at all ; when I asked about it, the manager said it was like this . Totally , we were disappointed , especially the occasion was for my 'younger twin siblings' joint birthday dinner & one of them came from New York to London . Base on the present standard , I will not recommend anyone to Origin City !!!!

9/10+1Tasty food, good service and a nice ambience. If you like British food and meat, you’ll love this. Some interesting things - the Peppercorn ice cream was fun!

10/10+3When we booked we've said it's a birthday celebration. We haven't expected anything and haven't asked, but was treated to a Birthday Macaron at the end which was brilliant! Although sometimes it took a bit longer to get their attention, staff were generally attentive (it was a busy night) and cared from the start (coat storage) throughout the meal. Food quality was top notch - slightly pricey though the Yums coupon helped. Shoutout to the seafood platter which is commendable both in size and freshness, as well as the lamb stew.

9.5/10l can see this becoming my City restaurant to go to, with others now closed or have changed hands. The wine list offers a good choice and at very cheap prices for the quality. Food is a very good quality with dishes that you don't usually get in other places. I was with my wife this time who enjoyed it very much. But looking forward to going back with a friend that will share a casserole with me. The staff are excellent friendly and very efficient.

10/10I would like to say thank you to the staff for making our anniversary super special, we eat out a lot but this service was the best we have received! The lamb main was tender and tasty, would recommend this dish. The extra efforts throughout the evening made this occasion very memorable.

9/10Excellent restaurant. This is my first time to have Scottish cuisine in London. Easy to reach location; and nice quiet atmosphere inside the restaurant itself. Waitresses are really friendly as well. Dishes are quite creative - an eye-opening experience. To top it up, they serve complimentary little soup, liqueor and dessert for free and make you feel really valued.
