Tournesol food is blah, expensive and salty. Worst service in Long Island City too.
2, obviously you didn’t fill out a Zagat’s survey. So why do you think the place got such great ratings?
Tournesol is great. Too bad there’s so many haters that live in LIC.
They need to use the A/C when it’s hot out and not just open the doors in the front. What is it with Europeans and not using A/C?
They’re european, and not americans. They can bare the heat and not whine and moan about everything else!
And hello, that one semi-cute waiter SMELLS. Jesus, wash those pits, I’m trying to eat!
6, sorry. You can’t compare the humid, oppressive summer heat of NYC with the climate in Paris. I don’t want to die of heat exhaustion while eating steak frites.
#6 is a republican trying to make Obama supporters look like elitest.
Sorry, had to call you out.

Tournesol was rated the No. 1 French bistro in NYC. So to all you exiled former Manhattanites who are still so embarrassed to invite your friends to our humble neighborhood to dine out, put that in your souffle and smoke it.
