The Origin restaurant has a fantastic ambience and it looks out on to the famous whale watching bay. We went for lunch during the October restaurant week and managed to see whales from the restaurant! The food was lovely and light for a lunch and the service was fantastic!
One word sums it up. OUTSTANDING. Thank you

Origins Restaurant at The Marine Hotel
Hermanus has always been on our radar as a place to visit but until this past weekend we have never managed to visit. I am so happy we finally have set that right.
The town was nothing I expected, but everything about it I loved. There are so many places to visit and things to do and seeped in its majesty was the Grand Old Dame The Marine Hotel.
We arrived earlier and explored some of Hermanus and were already picking out the restaurants we wanted to visit on our next Hermanus trip.
But back to The Marine Hotel and Origins Restaurant, the views are exquisite, you have a full view of the entire Bay, one can only imagine what whale season would be like.
Its always lovely to see a familiar face on ones first visit to any establishment and Hayley and the rest of the team made us feel nothing but warmly welcomed.

or
Charred Springbok Tataki - young carrots, pickled mushrooms, raspberry

Now to the food, being allergic to shellfish, I couldn’t sample the plate of very aromatic molluscs, but I have it on good authority that they were excellent.
The Walker Bay Fish Curry also had raving reviews from our table, and that sticky rice oh my soul.
Both the Springbok Tataki and Kudu Loin were excellent as well, we only had one of the desserts, but we are going back as I believe the Ceaser Salad is one for the books.

Read full reviewWe had an amazing experience at Origins in Hermanus. The fish cakes starter was absolutely incredible (Cape Malay influences and a bit of a bite) and a very generous portion. The gnocchi was just as good. We had the linefish (cob) and chicken breast. Both were excellent. The meal was completed with coffee panacotta and a chocolate souffle. One of our guests had the the Sunday lunch buffet which was also excellent value and tasty. All in all a wonderful experience. The decor of the restaurant is amazing... take a walk through the halls and lounge at the Marine Hotel too. We couldn't fault the service. Will definitely be back.
Very frendly personnel
