Fodor's Expert Review Alchemy Bistro & Wine Bar

This upscale eatery overlooking Haller Fountain offers a blend of Italian, Spanish, and French favorites alongside Pacific Northwest fare, including succulent salmon, oysters, and mussels. Entrées include a selection of salads, seafood, and pastas as well as the often-requested Drunken Rabbit, slow-cooked in red wine with garlic, carrots, and onions. Sunday brunch features wild salmon Benedict, crepes with fresh berry compote and marscapone, crème brûlée French toast, and endless mimosas, and there's an evening "small bites" menu in the intimate bar with deep-red walls.
