Alkimia

“We stumbled upon this gem during a trip to Barcelona. The restaurant has a very subtle entrance, making you feel like you are entering a speakeasy. Between the two of us, I am a pescatarian with a few allergies. The kitchen not only met my needs, they gave me absolutely delicious items. The courses are an art for the eyes as well as a fusion of several layers of flavors with each bite. Highly recommend for a romantic dinner or just for those who appreciate quality atmosphere and incredibly flavorful food. And, the chef’s music playlist was on point for two children of the 80’s.”

“Really interesting menu, this was an experience to try! This was my first time at a Michelin restaurant like this. My favorites were the first and last courses. The tuna and croquette were amazing, and I liked that all of the desserts were pleasantly not too sweet. I'll say the pig's ear wasn't for me, but was interesting to try.”

“Alkimia is one of those places a love to come back when I am in barcelona. Always find new dishes tasty and delicious. Escudella was especially tasty. Service is professional and attentive, special mention for the service called Marta a true professional. Definitely coming back soon.”

“Amazing tasting menu and wine pairing. I would highly recommend the wine pairing unless you are opening some interesting bottles. They really did excel with their pairing. We experienced a great service. The atmosphere is laid back for such a fancy restaurant. Worth to take a sneak peak at their private dinning room, its beautiful.”

“We had a reservation, but it didn’t seem properly confirmed. It might have been partly our fault, but since they said they could serve us, we went in. After being seated, we waited 20–30 minutes without even getting menus, while guests who came in later were already enjoying wine and receiving theirs. If they didn’t have enough staff, it would’ve been better to just say so instead of letting us in. Most staff were trying to be nice, but one of them never made eye contact and felt dismissive, which was unpleasant. Service training seems necessary. The food was okay, though a few dishes were a bit fishy.”
