Looking for ambiance, great service and great food? The answer is ORIGEN. Three of us tried this place for the first time. Starters were the grilled Brie and street corn. Entrees were enchiladas, Barbacoa Regina and pork shank. All were very good, but the pork's quality and presentation were over the top. Service was spot on and the unique ambiance just topped off the evening. So glad to see Gilbert getting our fair share of upscale restaurants like Origen! read more

Walking into the restaurant, the aesthetic and vibe were great and would definitely come back to try their other entrees. For this occasion we ordered: Bone in ribeye: 4/5- the 20oz steak was perfectly cooked with a charred flavor, but I personally think it's missing butter and some rosemary. As for the mashed potatoes, it was finely grated and mashed and was just divine to eat Salmon carpaccio 3/5- the ponzu flavor was light and not too overwhelming and thought it was great sauce. However, the deduction comes in the way the salmon was cut. For sure if the Salmon were thinly slice vs chucks, I would've gave this dish a higher score. Cutting it in chucks had this mushy texture Ceviche 5/5- this ceviche was delicious. Right amount of seasoning, and with that hint of coconut it complimented the fish and shrimp to perfection As for the service, definitely could've used some improvement. Our server was slow and didn't come often to pick up our dishes or ask us how we are doing. We were the ones that constantly had to wave her down to get help read more

Been here a few times recently. One for my birthday and one for happy hour. Both times the service has been awesome. The decor and ambiance is always top notch. I love feeling like I can dress up for a Gilbert restaurant. Having gone for dinner and happy hour, both did not disappoint. Got the flank steak and pork belly tacos at dinner. Loved both and steak cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were even amazing! The crevice was incredible. The broth everything is in, is different but on point with the fish. I want it everytime I go! I went for happy hour a month later, and you truly can't beat this happy hour anywhere . $30 for 3 different kinds of steaks , cooked how you want and with a side! My filet was cooked nice and rare and was delicious! Highly recommend for anyone who can make it between those short hours. The cucumber mezcalita drink is my favorite! It's light and refreshing. With such a nice restaurant so close and and a great happy hour , I definitely will be back to take advantage! read more

We went to Origen for our anniversary dinner, and while the space itself is beautiful -- especially the wood‑accented lobby -- the overall experience didn't quite match the ambiance. The tables and chairs were very comfortable, but the music was so loud that it was hard to hear each other talk, which took away from the atmosphere. Service was slow from the start. It took quite a while before our waiter came by, though he was friendly once he arrived and mentioned we'd receive a complimentary flan for our anniversary. Our drinks took a long time to come out, and after answering a few questions, our server disappeared again for another long stretch before taking our order. When he finally returned, the upselling was obvious. I ordered the ribeye, which was genuinely delicious. My husband was talked into the Cowboy Bone‑In Ribeye -- much more expensive -- and he felt it wasn't nearly as flavorful as mine. We also ordered the mac and cheese, which was watery, and the street elote, which tasted more like plain boiled corn with cheese than anything seasoned or grilled. At the end of the meal, our server asked multiple times if we wanted to see the dessert menu and seemed to forget entirely that we were there celebrating our anniversary. We chose not to remind him and went to the ice cream shop across the way instead. Overall, Origen was just okay. It's too expensive for a casual night out and not quite special enough for a celebration. I really wanted to love this place, but it just didn't land for us. read more

It was our first time here and we decided to give happy hour a try. I was really impressed with the ambiance of the restaurant right when you walk in and throughout, it's gorgeous. My husband reviewed the menus prior but I didn't. I was shocked by the price of the food and especially the kids meals $18-20ish, and $48ish for enchiladas. That being said, the quality of the food, service, and ambiance helped me feel more comfortable with the cost. I would say I thought it was going to be a more casual experience (because of the plaza) but it does have a more upscale vibe. Our server was fantastic and really made sure to help make our experience just right. We will definitely be back but I think I'll save this place for special occasions, thank you! read more

This building and the ambience are remarkable. The decor is high-end fashioned, but also interesting with the natural elements such as barking wood. They had live music playing jazz with a saxophone that was really quite soothing and provided an upscale vibe. The staff here were very attentive, but I will say the food was really disappointing. Salmon was flavorless. The prices are overrated. The guacamole was fine. The salad was a bit lacking. The queso was small portions and very stringy. The one saving grace of this meal was the chocolate churros. They were phenomenal. I would come back here for a drink and churros but that's it. The food was overpriced and bland really disappointing given the beautiful setting. read more

Went to Or1gen on Valentine's Day and it was such a cute and romantic spot for dinner. The vibes were moody and intimate, which made it feel perfect for a date night. The service was also great. the staff was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I ordered the Mary's chicken with truffle fries and both were delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the truffle fries were crispy and full of flavor. definitely a great combo. Overall it felt like a really special spot for a romantic dinner, and I'd definitely come back for another date night!! read more

Found this place through an instagram story and was excited to try it. We were seated during happy hour with no reservation. They easily accommodated our group of five. The food is excellent and flavorful. The portion sizes are very generous and they even offered to fire the steak at two temperatures to split. We ordered the ribeye during happy hour. There was a nice crust on the steak and was well seasoned. The kids meals have extremely generous portions but are 18-20 dollars per kids meals. The service was excellent. Would definitely be worthwhile to check out at happy hour (Sunday through Thursday 3-5) read more

Second visit to Origen, this time flying in specifically for Origen and a bar before heading back out the next morning. Still a good experience, and the restaurant itself is absolutely gorgeous. Food was decent, and the service was on point. My only critique this time is it did not taste like it did last time at all. Still good, but consistency is important! The octopus this time was very close to overcooked, but just still flew under the radar, and the short rib was great. Carpaccio was good itself but the bread was incredibly over roasted to the point of being a giant crumbling crouton. One complaint was the Churro Carajillo, it was vastly different, appeared to be missing all of the alcohol and taste like a latte. I did bring this up and they assured it was correct and offered a small shot on the side to add to it. This was a good gestures, but the recipe absolutely changed since my last visit, and they should REALLY consider going back to the old one. That being said it was good with the additional shot, but still not the same. read more

The ambiance and the decor here is spectacular. It's beautiful inside and great for special occasions. We had a party of 12 for a milestone birthday. We were able to get a private area with a sliding door and personal bathroom. It was awesome. The service was fantastic and our server was attentive and made sure to check on our group. The food was great. I highly recommend the guacamole with pork belly for the appetizer. I also thought my enchilada entree was delicious. I would definitely come back to try other dishes! read more

I have heard some mixed reviews on this place. We had a fantastic time. Came in for date night on a Friday and scored seats at the bar. Sara was our bartender/server. She was vey knowledgeable about the menu. She was fun and we loved sitting there watching her make many different cocktails. I had a the biggest baked potato I have ever seen covered with steak bites. I literally ate that night, my husband and I mixed with eggs the next morning and still made a few burritos out of the leftovers. Yum! My husband had the filet tacos and bone marrow. He liked it but when given the habanero hot sauce, he was in love! The bone marrow is always a hit with him and got a mescal luge after was the kicker. We will be back. read more

Where do I begin? The decor, food, the service, the added blankets for those sitting outside (a plus)...all were amazing! Impromptu dinner outing and of course, we made reservations because they are busy!! we got lucky finding a spot for us. Our waiter was amazing, so friendly and accommodating! We ordered a variety of apps: The guacamole The ceviche (table fav) the mushrooms (not a fan on its own but paired well with the steak entree) Smoky mac and cheese (OMG AMAZING) Main course: The planco pasta - excellent The white fish - tasty! Ribeye 12oz..excellent (got cold quickly as we sat outside) We wanted to try the chicken but they were sold out :(. cocktails: Mexi-hatten, Mezcal OF, Hibiscus Mex-calita. all were excellent We had the flan for dessert and it was amazing! (comped as we kept ordering things that were sold out lol just our luck) Will definitely be back, especially since its so close to us. Vegetarian items were limited (obviously) but they do have avocado tacos and of course the apps! read more

Other than the ambience, I was not impressed....at all. The service was horrendous!!! I mean we waited about 10 minutes for our drinks and 20 minutes for our check. It was awful. The food was not great and extremely overpriced. I would much rather go to a high scale establishment like Steak 44 for comparable prices. Mediocre at best. I would go back for HH and the bar based on the ambiance but there are far better restaurants out there with far better service. Don't let the aesthetics of this place fool you for good food and good service. read more

Went to Origen for the first time to celebrate a family birthday. The place was very unique as far as the build out and atmosphere, but the food was lackluster, especially for the prices they command there. I ordered the salmon which was probably a bad choice for steak restaurant, but it was no different than the salmon dinner I would've received at Cheddars. In fact, they said it would be crispy and seared, and mine came out mushy as if it had been poached. For a high end restaurant, I also found the staff to be rather juvenile and unprofessional and the delivery was long on time. Many steaks ordered at my table were not that great either. A cool interior doesn't make you high-end if you don't have the great food and service to accompany it. We will not be returning; this is not a proven high-end restaurant by any means, but yet they charge as if they are. read more

Booked a reservation for 4 pm on Sunday for 8 people. From the moment you walk in you are intrigued by the design and wood work they do. Very very cool ambiance and way to add a unique elevated vibe! When we got sat we were pleasantly surprised by it being happy hour and ever more excited when we saw they had $29 filet on the happy hour menu. Definitely the best happy hour menu we have ever had. Kelly our server was great. She was efficient and all of our food came out great. Most of us got the filet cause how could you not. The steaks were grilled to perfection with a nice char and perfectly medium rare on the inside. We also got the guacamole and elote as appetizers, both weren't my favorite but still good and fresh! For dessert we tried all three options which I would personally pass on three next time. All around wonderful place to eat and would be a perfect date night. We definitely will be back to try some more stuff on the menu!! read more

Worst service from start to finish. Came here mid-week to celebrate our 20th anniversary, expecting a great experience...especially since it's the kind of place where they place the napkin on your lap. Unfortunately, that was the highlight. Our server, Becky T., took over 10 minutes to greet us, seemed annoyed by simple menu questions, and disappeared for 20 minutes after we ordered a starter. We had to flag down another server just to find her. When she finally came back, she was rude and dismissive. We felt like a burden the entire night, which is the last thing you want when celebrating something special. Very disappointing. Won't be back. read more

8.8.25 - tried this place out for the first time last week. Loved the look and feel of the interior of this place! They had live music playing on this night too. We arrived a tad early for our reservation so we grabbed a drink at the bar first and waited til the hostess came and got us. We were then seated in a little corner that was more well lit but a bit secluded from the main area. Hostesses, bartender and our waitress were all great! Order: Churro Carajillo Old Fashioned w/ Clase Azul x2 Tuna Tiradito 12oz Ribeye Steak Loaded Baked Potato w/ Birria Smoked Broccolini Churro Carajillo was delicious! Would get that again. Everything else was good too. I would skip on the loaded baked potato if you're getting the steak since it already comes with mashed potatoes. We didn't read that part lol. The place has a nice vibe. I would come back and try their brunch menu next time read more

Came here for my husband's birthday. Interior is stunning. Food was pretty good, but little things throughout the meal left me feeling a tad disappointed. We were seated at a table near the middle of the restaurant, and it is for sure a stunning restaurant. But for some reason, I felt very out of place and oddly isolated(?) even though we were near the middle. I finally realized while we were waiting for our entrees that we were sitting at a table big enough for 4-5 people and it was just us two, but all the other chairs were removed from our table. Not sure if that was to create more space? However I felt like I was sitting in a walk path and got bumped pretty hard by a server while eating, but it was fine. We started with appetizers and ordered the Queso Fundido. We tried to order the Charred Savoy Cabbage as well, but was told it was taken off the menu, even though it was listed on our menus. Apparently we had received old menus, and our waiter had to bring us new ones. I was a little bummed because I really wanted to try the cabbage, but no worries. Since it was my husband's birthday and we were celebrating some other things, we went all out and tried the Cowboy Bone-In Ribeye, the Angus Short Rib Steak, and the Tacos De Filet (comes with bone marrow). It did take quite a while for the entrees to arrive, but we didn't mind. Everything looked visually amazing when it came out. The ribeye was more rare than we liked, the tacos were a bit dry, but overall, the food was pretty good. I guess the thing that bothered me a bit was the complimentary birthday dessert. I had mentioned to the server that it was my husband's birthday when we ordered entrees. I wasn't sure if Origen did anything for birthdays, but I saw the group in front of us receive a birthday dessert and hoped we'd get one. While we were eating, I heard a different table that just arrived say it was their birthday and our same server said that he'd have "a nice birthday treat for them at the end of the meal." I wasn't sure if my husband heard our server say that to the other table, but was happy knowing he'd be surprised with a little birthday dessert at the end of the meal. However, we were never given a birthday dessert. Maybe our server forgot and we needed to mention it again, but it felt pushy and honestly I'm too much of an introvert to do that. It feels petty to be a little sour because we didn't get a birthday treat, but I guess with how much we spent on our meal, it would have been nice to get a little something since we were celebrating, especially when other people around us were getting birthday desserts. I do think this is still a good place for a special occasion. The food is pretty good and the interior is just so gorgeous. It was just a little too many things piled up onto each other that left me feeling a little more disappointed than happy. read more

A good friend recommended Origen after hearing us rave about our two great experiences at BLU Seafood next door. My wife and I made a 7:15 pm reservation and, when we arrived, were asked if we could wait a few minutes because they were busy. We were seated on the patio within about 15 minutes. Our server greeted us quickly, walked us through the menu, and took our drink and appetizer order. The drinks (a beer and an Old Fashioned) and the ceviche arrived promptly and were all excellent. Shortly after, we ordered our entrée along with another round of drinks. That's when things went downhill. We waited... and waited. My wife ordered another beer, which arrived quickly, but our food never did. Our server did stop by a couple of times to apologize and let us know there were delays. By around 9:00 pm, after more than 90 minutes since ordering our entrée, my wife said she wasn't even sure she was hungry anymore--and honestly, I felt the same. I asked to speak with a manager. The host mentioned it had been a "really rough night" and that three tables had already walked out. About 10 minutes later, a very polite manager came by to apologize and insisted on comping our drinks and appetizer, which we appreciated. I grew up in the restaurant business, and simply put, there's no excuse for a 90+ minute wait for dinner. The restaurant itself is beautiful, the staff was friendly, and what we did have was very good--but unfortunately the overall experience was too disappointing for us to return. One final note for management: there was a gentleman on the patio in a white collared shirt working on a laptop and giving direction to staff, who appeared to be in a management or ownership role. Given the situation, it would have gone a long way for him to check in with guests and help address the issues. I hope they can improve, but for now we'll be taking our business elsewhere. read more

We had a fantastic meal at this relatively new restaurant located at Williams Field and power Road. First, I'd like to start by talking about the ambience. The decor inside this restaurant is absolutely impeccable. I definitely love the attention to detail throughout. The Wood gave us a very warm and cozy feeling. This was perfect because we were on a date night! I love the dark ceilings, the low lighting and all of the wood accents. Great romantic vibe. We settled on the short rib, which was on the shareable side of the menu. We're very glad we did. It was cooked perfectly and melted in our mouths. It was topped with a delicious chimichurri sauce and accompanied by some perfectly seasoned mashed potatoes and absolutely delicious soy glazed caramelized, onions with a roasted jalapeño on top. Since we were sharing a dish, we decided on an appetizer. We chose the guacamole, which was also very well seasoned and served with large circular corn tortilla chips. Our server was friendly and in the process of training someone new. The service was good. We would definitely return to this restaurant it's nice to have an upscale restaurant closer to Queen Creek. read more

6/18/25 First Visit. Located SWC Williams Field & Recker. Parking 5/5 Plenty of parking near the front, and in the shared parking lot at 3pm. Ambiance 6/5 Origen makes a statement as you round the hostess station and enter main dining room. The vibe is Uniquely Elegant , the Architecture incorporates dark wood features that are complimented with copper pendant lights, Artwork, backlit logos feature dinning rooms with hi-resolution fireplace screens creating beautiful cozy warm spaces. I took a tour with owner Eduardo who graciously brought me to the rear Dinning room where a dozen or so of Gilbert's leaders met for dinner. There is a Beautiful glass Floor-to-ceiling wall with door that showcases their premium Wines; nicely done and Classy. Edwardo took me into another private room which he referred to as "moment-in-time" Trophy room where guests opened but unfinished premium wines are tastefully displayed that include the signatures of their guests. This sentiment is Suavecito sénior Eduardo. Hat tip Services 6/5 We arrived without reservations about 2:30 pm. We were seated in less than 5 minutes. Our server tonight was Sun. She introduced herself and took our drink and appetizer orders. Sun was very pleasant, helpful throughout our experience! She and Edwardo spoke perfect English but enjoyed a brief conversation at our table in Spanish. Food 10/5 Everything was truly amazing. Our appetizers were Pork-belly Guacamole and non-husk Elote. Both were nice. We both ordered the Ribeyes medium rare. My wife Had the Bone Marrow side dish and I had the Cheesy Garlic Mashed Potatoes. Both came with delicious grilled onions and spicy hot Jalapeños which I enjoyed in my leftover corn tortillas. The Ribeyes came perfectly cooked and juicy. First bite was a wow OMGosh Amazing standout flavor! We've enjoyed Ribeyes at some of the valley's finest and these were definitely in their league. Chef Armando & prep cooks are serving delicioso heavenly dishes! We defiantly will be back for the evening atmosphere. Origen is a must experience and when you do, say Hello to Eduardo! Dinner for two, $222.59 including tip which included two iced Teas, two starters, two Ribeye entrees and one Bone Marrow side. We had leftovers and our little K-9 Khloe was going to enjoy a little ribeye tonight too! Eat well my Yelping Friends- SYOY! read more

Recently came here for the first time for dinner. Had been excited to try it out since it had opened. Made a reservation online for a Wednesday night. We showed up early for our time and was able to get seated immediately, which was nice. The inside is very nice and has a great ambiance to it. The decor and dark lighting really set the mood. There is plenty of space inside. There is outdoor seating as well. Really enjoyed the vibe here! Service was just okay. For being a nicer steakhouse, I expected a lot better, honestly. We definitely waited a while before being greeted and to order. Nothing major, though. It looked like they only had 2 servers on the floor all night. The food was absolutely delicious! We split the shareable short rib steak, ordered the bone marrow, and a side of broccoli. Everything was so well made and outstanding. My favorite part was either the bone marrow or mashed potatoes, tough call! Would order all again! For the food alone, I would give this another shot or try it out if it's your first time. It is pricey, but being a nicer end steakhouse, that's not a surprise. read more

OMG, I'm so disappointed with Origen. I thought it'd be amazing since it's a sister restaurant to Miel de Agave. I made a 7:45 PM reservation, and we got seated right away, but then... crickets! After 15 minutes, we waited literally 1 hour and 30 minutes for two steaks, and when they finally arrived, they were cold! I spoke to the manager, Elias, who apologized and took my medium rare steak to reheat. He brought it back medium well instead! Like, seriously?! No one checked on us, and not even a dessert to make it better. Major letdown! Do not waste an evening and your money there! The only enjoyment I got from there was the bottle of Heights I ordered but I could have enjoyed it at home without the markup . Ugh $300 down the drain! read more

Had our father's day brunch here this year and had the greatest experience! Food was phenomenal. I shared the steak and eggs with my toddler and we both loved it. I wish the eggs were a bit more runny since I asked for over medium (but not necessarily wanted a sunny side). My partner had the chilaquiles which he loved. The pancakes were huge and fluffy. My latte was the right amount of sweetness and it came with a cute little dark chocolate treat. Best part about our visit was when my 3 yo spilled his water all over himself and the floor. The staff came to rescue so quickly and even helped with comforting my baby as he freaked out when the water spilled. As a mom that was everything to me. I did not feel any shame or judgement from the staff that my baby made a little mess. I appreciate you guys! read more

Positives: atmosphere is excellent, place has a great vibe. Negatives: we had skirt steak and filet mignon. Both were tough, overcooked and just bland. Asked for medium came out well. He did offer to remake them but at that point we were hungry and didn't want to wait another 45 minutes from our initial order as we had an event we needed to get to. The filet came out cut into chunks which I had never seen before. Other negative was the server did not bring out our side orders with the meal. We were half way done with our entrees before they were brought out. Besides the broccolini was still raw. Despite sharing this with the server no accommodation was made our offered. At those prices will not be coming back. read more

I am so disappointed to be writing this, but it's warranted. We went in this weekend for Valentine's day which, OK big event... but the amount of staff versus patrons, there is no excuse. Tons of staff, tons of empty tables. We had our reservation for 6:15, sat maybe 5 minutes later, great start. The hostess took us to three separate tables outside before seating us... OK, some confusion from staff. It's an event night, I get it. We're seated. We've already looked at the menu and know what drink and appetizer we want. Our server comes by with water after 10 minutes and says they'll return for our drink order. Then... they return 30-40 minutes later. We're looking around at people seated after us getting drinks and appetizers. Finally our server comes back and we put in the full order because we've now been here a while and are hungry. We repeat the drink order three times because the server keeps writing dirty martini instead of Johnnie Walker Black ok the rocks (there were no rocks by the way). The food came out appearing delicious and my partner absolutely enjoy his steak and cold potatoes. The enchiladas were good, but my steak... all fat and gristle. Basically, too tough to even cut through with the knife. Most of that was tossed in the trash. I never ordered a second drink because well, our server didn't return for another 45 minutes. This place is very pretty and aesthetically pleasing but they have a lot to work one. The biggest one is service. If you're going to charge that much, give people a good time... and more steak, less gristle. Oh and we still tipped well because you know, that's the only time our server was remotely interested in being near us. read more

Let me save you three hours of your life. We had a reservation. A reservation. And still waited 45 minutes past our reserved time just to be seated. Why make reservations at all if they mean absolutely nothing? Then we sat. And sat. And sat some more. It took 40 additional minutes before anyone even brought menus or took a drink order. At that point I was wondering if there were hidden cameras on us. Every single piece of food that hit our table was cold. Not slightly cooled. Not "resting." Cold. When we brought it up, we were told there was nothing they could do about it because of "how the furnace takes in and brings out the air." Excuse me? Since when does your HVAC system control the temperature of a steak? Speaking of steak... mine was more fat than meat. Chewy, greasy, and wildly overpriced. The appetizers were genuinely disgusting. I kept waiting for at least one redeeming moment. It never came. Dinner lasted three hours. Three. Hours. For cold food. I asked for a straw eight times. Eight..... The most impressive part of the evening was the bill. It was astonishing how expensive it was for the worst dining experience I've ever had. I truly do not understand how this place has stayed open as long as it has. If you enjoy long waits, cold food, creative furnace explanations, and lighting your money on fire, this is your spot. Everyone else? Run. read more

The owner Alex introduced himself at the beginning and at the end he ruined it. Let's begin by saying that the location is great and in such a cute area. The place is very nicely decorated and my friends and i enjoy the piano music. We were having a great time. And our waiter was excellent. Do not come here if you are planning an outing with your girlfriends or if it is a business meeting because if you stay long, Alex will come to let you know that you have over stayed your time. As you can see, we ordered a lot and my pictures do not depict other drinks our group ordered. We also tipped well but we will not be returning. Our party was not loud nor demanding. There were plenty of empty tables available so we were caught off guard when we were told that we had been here for too long! What in the world!! read more

We were here early on a Friday afternoon for early dinner and we loved our experience. All members of the crew were friendly and warm and welcoming. Our server was attentive and upbeat but not hovering. The ambiance is very cool but still comfortable and inviting. We had the queso fundido as a starter and it was good but served with soft tortilla which was different. The signature Phoenix cocktail was generous and tasty. For entrees the Ribeye and the new addition white fish. Both were excellent. We also enjoyed the REAL flan and the dulce de leche volcano for dessert. Overall are fantastic experience and we plan to return whenever we can. By 5 pm the place was filling up, so probably snag a reservation if you can. read more

We came here with our two friends for a nice dinner out. I loved how easy it was to make reservations online. We were promptly seated and the set up is beautiful. The ambiance is a tree theme with lots of original wood and low lighting. Some of the decorations are unique and modern but still cool! Our waitress was very sweet and attentive even though we were slow to order and she paced her timing to the table well! They have a large wine list and cocktails. I wasn't huge on their cocktails, none of them were truly sweet. And of course, a lot of tequila, which I don't fancy. The food offered is a mix of southwestern style and steakhouse. The entries with meat were ala carte and quite pricy. Especially for not coming with anything like veggies, potatoes, or anything. It came with a small side of onions. They had a nice selection otherwise. I had the steak tacos which were phenomenal. The tortilla was cooked with melted cheese, kind of like a quesabirria. The steak was deliciously seasoned but each taco (4) came with one large slice. I would have preferred them to cut it up as it was chewy and hard to take a bite from the taco and not take the whole piece of meat. There was cilantro of course and on the side was bone marrow, which added AMAZING to the top. What an interesting, but delicious side. My friend had the salad, which was HUGE and looked amazing. My other friend had the burger, which he also really enjoyed. They did have non alcoholic beer and I forgot what my boyfriend ordered but we also had a side of the elote. The corn was delicious but it was one piece cut in threes for $16. Good food but priced high. read more

Origen - Steak tacos - Steakhouses Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

We went here for me and my boyfriend's anniversary and it's absolutely beautiful in there. The ambience is so cool and it definitely made us feel special. We had a reservation and got seated immediately. Our server didn't come for awhile which is okay! He apologized and was very kind throughout our whole time there. Unfortunately, the service wasn't the best in terms of attentiveness. Our waters were empty most of the time and we were barely checked up on. The food was great! The salmon is probably the best salmon I've ever had. The rest of the food is really good, however I don't think it's anything to write home about. Overall, the ambiance and the food were great but personally I don't think the price was worth it because it wasn't necessarily mind blowing read more

The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the food was good. However, nothing stood out as exceptional enough to justify making the 45-minute drive again. The live music was absolutely wonderful; I believe the musician was Ms. J. Lopez from Chicago, and she truly enhanced the atmosphere. Unfortunately, our overall experience was negatively impacted by our waitress (name unknown, red hair), whose service was below average. When we were seated at 6:00 PM, she was only attending to one other table yet appeared disorganized and constantly moving back and forth. It took about 15 minutes before she approached our table, and when she did, there was no introduction, no enthusiasm, and no effort to take drink orders or ask if we had any questions. We repeatedly had to get her attention for basic needs, including ordering a second beverage and clearing plates so our food would fit on the table. I understand that everyone can have an off day, but first impressions matter--especially when guests travel 45 minutes, and in some cases over an hour, to try a new restaurant. Unfortunately, the service diminished what could have been a much better experience. While the food was good, I would rather visit my favorite local Mexican restaurants, where I know the quality and service exceed what we experienced here. read more

Great atmosphere and ambiance. Food was mediocre and extremely overpriced! $42: 4 tiny street tacos (overcooked-alleged filet), $48: 3 pieces of octopus over fingerling potatoes (overcooked and extremely chewy), salsas are mediocre, as well. Guacamole was very good. Chips come in form of tostada shells, meh. Served was also very nice and accommodating. Above meals with 2 regularly priced drinks, with tip. Nearly $200. Not at all worth the money! First time, last time! Very disappointed. read more
