Born Around a Backyard Grill

Origen started the way the best things do — with friends, fire, and food that made everyone stay a little longer. More than twenty years later, that same passion lives on in every dish served at our Gilbert location (steakhouse and Mexican fine dining) and Downtown Phoenix (Mexican fine dining), where mesquite fire and Yucatán-inspired flavors come together in two distinct experiences.

What our guests are saying

Food was excellent. Our server was very attentive and prices were as expected. We had two apps, the brie and mushroom Chipotle, both were excellent. I had the tacos with marrow, and my wife had the enchiladas. The live music was amazing.
