Disappointing

Review
I've been looking forward to trying this place for a while now. There are always people in there and a few people have talked about it before. I finally got a taste of it and boy, was I disappointed. The Onion Soup, which is boasted as the best onion soup you've tasted in years, was overly salty. I could barely finish it. The Beef Croquettes were more akin to a taro paste, which I don't particularly enjoy (no picture unfortunately). The Crab and Shrimp Cakes were the only tasty part of the meal, however they were very small. Lastly, the Portobello Tart was... let's say interesting. The tart was not soggy, which was good, but the taste didn't necessarily resonate with me. My final decision: pricey, small, and disappointing. Oh, and as a side note, my stomach wasn't feeling all that well afterwards too.
