This is one of the best restaurants in san diego, un pretentious food with emphisis on local farms and sustainable meats. Its hard to beat that pricing. Are you kidding a grassfed beef hamburger for 10 bucks! I like to try alot of things and love the fact that you can for a very reasonable price.

A Spring Saturday night brought us to Alchemy...a new gastropub style restaurant in South Park (no, not the TV show). I have to say, my expectations were high. Allow me to regale you with the facts.

This is a relatively new place...they haven't even had their grand opening yet. They have a section of their menu called "snacks", for which we ordered the entire list. It was OK; some were better than others. The highlights were the almonds and pork. The pita dip was OK. For an entree, I went with the pork. To be honest, it was a bit overcooked, and the sauce with the cocoa powder just didn't work (although adding the pear salad to a bite definitely helps). The mashed sweet potatoes weren't bad.

For dessert, I tried the banana split. It was a nice offering featuring home-made vanilla iced-cream with fresh fruit and warm chocolate sauce. Service was great...our waitress was very attentive and offered suggestions when asked.

Opening a restaurant is tough, and I think they're still working through some of the bugs, but if you're looking for something in South Park, Alchemy might be worth your time.
