| - Came here with my other half last night expecting it to be not quite as fab as Joe Beef, but still great and honestly, we left a little disappointed. The service and ambiance were fantastic and I love the decor, but everything we ate was far too salty. The starter salad arrived and looked gorgeous: a lovely piece of toasted brioche on top of a soufflé full of cheese, surrounded by tomatoes on top of kale: it would have been perfect if the kale hadn't of tasted like a mouthful of ocean :( In vain, we tried to cut down the salt with the bread and even that didn't work. Still, the tomatoes were incredible as was the brioche and soufflé. For my main, I had the dorade, it was stuffed with shrimp which tasted like overkill to me and took away from the freshness of the fish; the clams that surrounded it though were quite tasty. Dessert wasn't anything too special: meringue and ice cream.
I will absolutely come back here for late night small bites, yummy beer and great wine, but for dinner, I'd rather go next door to Joe Beef.
