" I was really pleased with the Turkish food at Alchemist. The flavors and quality were outstanding! If I had to nitpick, it would be the wait time; it took a little while for our food to come out, but it was well worth the wait. Each dish was delectable! Will definitely plan to return for another meal soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I enjoyed the food, particularly the desserts and salads, I wish the portion sizes were larger for the price I paid. The service was good, but the wait was a bit longer than expected. Nevertheless, I would likely return because the food was overall very flavorful and authentic. " (*Curated Review*)

" A pleasant surprise! The Alchemist truly lives up to its reputation. I went for dinner and was delighted by the variety on their menu. Each dish was served with a beautiful presentation and tasted fresh and authentic. Really enjoyed the lentil soup and lahmacun—both dishes were incredibly flavorful. Would love to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved the vibe at Alchemist. Great for relaxing over a cup of Turkish tea. The pastries were delightful—especially the baklava! The attention to detail in their desserts is impressive. Would definitely recommend this café for anyone wanting a sweet treat paired with a warm drink. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you can overlook the high prices, Alchemist has some fantastic food! The quality and presentation are top-notch, especially the desserts—they are a must-try. I enjoyed a luscious slice of cheesecake that was huge and absolutely delicious. The vibe in the restaurant is also very nice, makes for a great place for a casual dinner or celebration.

" I tried their Mediterranean wrap and wasn't impressed. It seemed somewhat bland and lacked the vibrant flavors I was hoping for. However, the service was good, and the place was well-kept. A bit underwhelmed, but maybe I just chose the wrong item. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here last night and it was mostly good. The highlight was definitely the simit and the lentil soup; both were packed with flavor and authenticity. However, we experienced a long wait for our meals, which made the evening feel a bit disjointed. It wasn't an overly busy night, so I was a bit surprised. Despite that, I enjoyed my overall dish experience, and I would return for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)
