Alkimia Barcelona

Alkimia sits on Rda. de Sant Antoni, a five-minute walk from the Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona. The restaurant holds a Michelin star and sits at number 53 on the La Liste rankings.

While much of the Eixample district focuses on traditional aesthetics, Alkimia prioritizes contemporary cuisine. The room runs smart and elegant, feeling more like a private residence than the halls closer to the heavy foot traffic of La Rambla. If you prefer creative cooking over the bustle of a tourist-heavy thoroughfare, this is the better choice. Its quiet pacing provides a departure from the louder, crowded dining rooms found a short walk toward the city center.
