    • Located in the heart of the Biarritz market halls, the restaurant L'Alchimie offers signature and bistronomic cuisine. In a friendly and cozy setting, everyone can, with family or friends, discover the menu of Paul Tur, former number two in several Michelin-starred restaurants, now back on his home turf. A culinary palette full of flavors and colors, like a tribute to the know-how of the local producers from whom the chef sources his food, to the steep mountains of the Basque Country and to the sea spray of the Atlantic Ocean. L'Alchimie is this clever blend of land and sea, synonymous with a unique culinary experience.


      And to delight your senses from plate to glass, the restaurant offers an equally remarkable wine and spirits menu, featuring appellations familiar to connoisseurs and some truly wonderful discoveries. Enjoy at the bar, over pintxos and tapas, or at the table for a more intimate experience.


      A menu of delicious and refined dishes, but also accessible to all. Because Paul Tur's cuisine is above all to be shared. Sometimes over a cocktail and a few notes of music at the end of the evening...

    Thank you for this moment. After a basil smash and an old fashioned on the starting line, we embarked on a complete overhaul of the menu and weren't disappointed in the slightest. Special mention to Valentin, who delighted us with both his friendliness and his impeccable service. Smiles, precision, thank you!

    This restaurant was highly recommended to us for a family event. We went with high hopes… and were unanimously disappointed. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was strange and the service sometimes bordered on rude. Numerous shortcomings followed: unavailable dishes and drinks (fish, cocktails, port), unannounced changes to ingredients, an allergy mentioned during the reservation that was ignored, repeated oversights regarding the children's meal (cutlery, drinks), and few apologies. As for the food, apart from the desserts, the dishes did not live up to the prices: questionable flavor combinations, undercooked monkfish that was probably frozen, and almost no vegetables. Given our experience, we don't understand the very positive reviews. We are not demanding customers, but something is clearly wrong with this establishment, despite its high ratings.

    A truly wonderful alchemy is created between a cozy and pleasant atmosphere, welcoming and warm service, and above all, excellent, refined, and original cuisine of high quality. Bravo! 👏

  • "Good restaurant but what a pity for the service!"

    3 / 5 Reviews posted by bill64200 (Noiseau, France) on 10/01/2026

    Nothing to say about the food. Dishes worked and original but not too much. The service, however, was not up to standard. It's a shame, maybe an evening without.
