- AAllenSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review4.0Dined on Feb 15, 2025The food was good however the service was sporadic and didn't explain that the appetizers and desserts were supposed to be shared within the couples. The meal was not delivered as expected as the server didn't know which steak was rare and medium. The staff seemed inexperienced and possilbly just brought on for the holiday. Finally, the price did not reflect the overall experience... too pricey for the overall experience.More infoAlchemy Bistro & Wine BarPrice: Expensive• Steak• Port Townsend•4.4
