    We were in town for 1 night and did a quick check for a place in Royal Oak. No expectations. I have to say this is now one of my top five places that blew my mind and tastebuds. The Burnt Ends Salad alone is worth the visit. I’ve never thought of a salad being a smokey, complex mixture of root, leafy vegetables and buttery meat. Ohhhh! The waygu strudel was a delightful elevation that reminded me the best of a homemade pot roast crossed with Beef Wellington. More and more to try. I wish we lived close.
    AlchemiResponded today
    We're absolutely blown away by your incredible review! It's wonderful to hear that your quick search led you Alchemi, and that we exceeded your expectations in every way. We're thrilled that our Burnt Ends Salad left such a lasting impression on you. Our chef's creative take on traditional salads is a favorite among our regulars, and we're glad you got to experience it. And we're equally delighted that our Wagyu strudel reminded you of a homemade pot roast crossed with Beef Wellington - what a wonderful compliment! Who knows, maybe you'll find yourself back in Royal Oak someday, and we'll get to welcome you back! Thank you again for your glowing review, and for sharing your enthusiasm with the world! Best regards, Alchemi

    The food and drinks are all great, just very high priced I’ve dined in similar concepts and I just felt like the drinks were too small for the price. I loved the presentation but the garnishes involved were cheap in costs so it was hard for me to justify the cost. I have a background in being a head chef and costing items based of purchasing cost etc. The food was very good overall the pad Thai was good, the wagyu was good, the lamb ragu was good it was just not garnished nicely just one edible flower in the center leaving little to no excitement. I’m writing this constructively not from a place of negativity or anything of that sort. I feel like if you’re going to charge top dollar then all of your entrees need to be exciting and fully thought out not just throwing edible flowers on top plates and calling it a night.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful and constructive review. We appreciate your honesty and value your feedback, especially given your background as a head chef. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the quality of our food and drinks, including the pad Thai, wagyu, and lamb ragu. However, we understand and respect your concerns about pricing and presentation. Regarding pricing, we appreciate your insight into food costing and understand that our prices may be higher than some of our competitors. However, we're committed to using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, which can sometimes drive up costs. Thank you again for your thoughtful review. We're grateful for customers like you who help us improve and strive for excellence. Best regards, Alchemi

    Pretty shocked by how good both our entrees were, they definitely earned their higher prices. Drinks and desserts were also incredible. Crème brûlée was beautiful. Can’t wait to return.

    Poor service. No host, one waiter for the entire restaurant. Inattentive b/c he was the only staff person other than bar tender. Will not be back. Clearly understaffed.
