Alchemy Restaurant & Bar in San Diego

Come join us on the 4th of July for our "Neighborhood BBQ and Bicycle Bash"... it might just be one of the best times of your life.  We will have a Texas Style BBQ all day long (or from 11am to 6pm) and have a bicycle (or stroller, wagon, or anything with wheels and no engine) decorating contest. We will have a few bicycle decorating kits on hand or pick one up at Thomas Bike Shop for free, starting on Thursday July 1^st. Check out our menu under the events column on our web-site.

One of the benefits of being in San Diego, and I am not referring to the June gloom, is having an abundance of fresh vegetables almost all year round. The only problem is that some of our favorite menu items don't last as long as we would like, and one such item is our signature squash blossoms off of our Street Food section.  These squash blossoms are lightly tempura battered, stuffed with herbed ricotta, and drizzled with chive oil. So please come over and try these delicious specialties of spring before the season is over...trust us, you will not be disappointed.

In keeping true to the old adage that, "the only thing constant in life is change," we have a plethora of changes that must be seen to appreciate. First off our menu, if you have not already seen it or tried it, you must check out our new ‘Street Food' section as well as our ‘Vegetarian' section. We also have a new beverage menu changes, on course for our seasonal menu change...the Papagallo puts the classic Mai Thai to shame. Last, but not least, we have an artist change in the restaurant. Just installed this week is art from Bryen Beglinger (might remember a cover he did for City Beat a few months back of a portrait of Hunter S. Thompson), a great representation of various historical (or pop) figures done in a pop art style all of his own. So get on board with "change," and get in here to be a part of it!
