This French restaurant is a cozy little jewel in LIC. Service was good and the food was delicious. We took our family for brunch. I think it could be a great date night place. I will say that there are a few rough looking characters that hang out on that area of Vernon. There’s a police station right around the corner but still be alert. I wouldn’t let that stop me from going there for a date.

One of the best brunch places in the area!! French toast is super fluffy with plentiful and fresh fruit, berry compote. Croque madame is delicious and super cheesy and warm, comes with good serving of side salad. Order a side of fries!!!!!!! We also got the soup of the day which was a carrot ginger. Would come back for brunch again and again

THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH OR AMEX. Wish I would’ve checked the reviews before dining here but there is an ATM next door at the deli. Besides that, Henry and the staff were SO friendly, attentive and very pleasant. The food was also delicious and the restaurant had a cozy vibe to it(:

Dinner for one, Friday night. Price: $87, $15 tip. Had appetizer, entree, dessert, glass of beer, glass of wine, bottle of water. Let’s break it down!

I was seated a few minutes after walking in, ice old beer came immediately. Waiters/staff are direct and to the point. No fluff, no nonsense. (I’m ok with that- they’re European!)

Appetizer: The shrimp/chorizo salad was tasty, but light. I would have preferred more greens, less raw onion and maybe a lemon wedge for the shrimp. Portion could be bigger.
Entree: Garlic chicken. Grilled nicely but a tad dry, the sauce saves you. I was not a fan of the mash…whatever that was. The chicken already has strong flavor of garlic, I don’t see the need to have more of it in the potatoes. It needed salt and most DEFINITELY butter. I was surprised I tasted no butter whatsoever, especially in a French dish. I recommend another side like a sweet potato or a just adding butter to whatever is being used instead of chucks of garlic. It was overbearing and heavy. Moderation, please. Portions for this dish were very generous.
Dessert: no complaints at all. Cleaned the plate.
Wine: ordered the 2023 Pinot noir, went well with dinner. Inexpensive and easy to drink.
Service: timely, and professional. The waiters don’t hover over you and come over quick when called. I will return to try to some different dishes. I like the simplicity of the place but I wish Americans became more aware of how obnoxiously loud they are when they’re speaking in such a small, quaint restaurant. Contain your conversations, Brad. I can smell your breath from here.

I went here for dinner with some friends. It’s such a cute spot. We didn’t have reservations, but luckily arrived just as a table was opening up. It’s a small to medium-sized French restaurant, very reminiscent of what you’d find in Lyon.

The food and wine were absolutely amazing, and the service was great. Just a heads up if you go, they only accept cash and AMEX. Other than that, if you’re looking for a cozy date night spot or somewhere that’s not too crowded, this is it.

Just got back from France, and dining at Tournesol felt like we never left! This authentic French restaurant gave us a truly wonderful experience.

We were greeted warmly upon arrival, and the owner’s kindness made us feel right at home. Got a nice bottle of wine to start. For appetizers, we had the duck tartine and the crab cake special with lobster gazpacho—absolutely delicious and full of flavor.

For entrées, we went with the specials: lamb shank and a white fish dish served with polenta. Both were cooked perfectly, rich and comforting just like a true French meal.

To finish, we shared the chocolate mousse and crème brûlée, which instantly transported us back to Paris.

The atmosphere is cozy and intimate—not too loud—making it a perfect spot for conversation. We loved everything about this place and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend!

Such a gem! We’ve eaten here a couple of times and absolutely enjoy it. Great food, great prices, and a very typical French experience overall (and amazingly doesn’t suffer from crowds of screaming Americans that try their best ruin your intimate date night…).

The skate is def worth trying. It has a very tender and mild flavor. And of course the beef bourginon and soupe a l’onion are staples. Service is prompt and caring. Just what you’d expect of a traditional neighborhood resto that’s been around for ages.

This isn’t for the insta famous crowds. It’s for a local couple who wants a solid meal for a solid price and a consistent experience.

Been coming for seven years. This is the epitome of what the perfect neighborhood bistro is (even if I moved to Brooklyn from LIC). I was genuinely worried for them when they closed for COVID.
