Starters: the 'contre filet ' was underwhelming, the beef was tasteless, the sauce was too sweet. The ceviche of tuna was OK but swamped in a cheesy cream mousse and the avocado fennel mixture underneath was too citrussy. Mains: the volaille came in a sauce that tasted of honey or jam — really not nice — and the prawn that came with it was mealy; the tuna steak was undercooked and tasted old; the beef fillet with marrowbone was nice. The chips had been under-fried — probably cooked once at 160 degrees — and were soft and limp. The salad side came dressed with something very sweet. The standard coffee was over-extracted, the decaff was under-extracted, and the bread was cheap. The meal cost us €150 (including 3 glasses of Gaillac red and two pressions) — we shan 't be going back any time soon (also the bathrooms could do with a clean).

Lunch menu is fresh, refined and affordable. Diner is a bit more pricey.

Exquisite flavors from appetizer to dessert. Don't come to Albi without visiting L'Alchimy. read more Exquisite flavors from appetizer to dessert. Don't come to Albi without visiting L'Alchimy.
