The underlying vision at Alchemy Restaurant and Bar is one of balance and transformation, in every plate and every drink. It begins with a deep commitment to showcasing the bounty of Southern Oregon and Willamette Valley through fresh, seasonal plates, a curated list of more than 200 craft spirits, and a growing cellar of wines for artful food pairing in the dining room.

Locals favor the Mini Beef Wellingtons (filet mignon, wild mushroom and bacon duxelle drizzled with a port wine reduction), Wild Mushroom Pappardelle (a silky house-made pappardelle pasta with wild mushrooms, Humboldt Fog goat cheese, roasted garlic, basil, and almonds, swirled in a sherry cream sauce) and Seared Duck Breast (with bok choy, black garlic puree, berry gastrique, and beet powder).

In the adjacent light-filled, sophisticated bar, craft cocktails, boutique wines and bistro fare play a leading role, along with the attention-grabbing backlit wall filled with an extensive collection of Scotch, bourbon, rum, tequila, brandy, amaro, and liqueurs. The bar menu will please most palates with options such as Grilled Corn, Veggie Chicharrón, Beer Battered Fries, Sautéed Prawns, and Chicken Wings with Spicy Peach Reduction, among others.

In 2016, Alchemy was honored with the Best of Award of Excellence by Wine Spectator, declaring “you won’t find a restaurant in Southern Oregon with a better wine program”. 

This on the heels of being named one of the 100 Best Restaurants for foodies by OpenTable.
