I can honestly say that the meal I had at Alquimia was the best Tapas I've ever had...including in Spain.
Don't be put off by the appearance of the outside of the restaurant...it looks small and insignificant, but go through the doors and you are welcomed as one of the family to experience a really authentic and delicious tapas menu.
There were plenty of choices on the menu, so me and my sister (my dining companion on this review) asked them to just bring us what they thought we should try and they went all out.
Every dish was fantastic, well thought out, presented with care and most importantly - delicious.
Try the tuna tartare - something I'd never have gone for...but which was amazing.
I'll be back!
